What did he say? I just turned it off once the game finished.

Got to take it on the chin I suppose... I'm really upset about this though, getting a bit tired of some of these silly decisions, another shocking performance from the referee and I know Barnes is going to get let off with all this completely despite his dirty challenges. That leg breaking challenge has to be a suspension.

Ashley Barnes will no doubt get let off with all this.

Right well anyway regardless of the result, if City win it's still a 5 point lead. Very disappointed though, not with this result in general but the aftermath, not having Matic in the side for 3 games is going to really hurt us I know it. Ramires is a dreadful footballer.

Piers Morgan? That can't be coming from him. Can't help but agree though, how is that not a red card for him, pathetic decision. The fault lies with Matic he can't react like that regardless but the refereeing has been ridiculously poor, this really isn't going to help things. I dread to think what's going to happen after the game.

f**king hell, the thing that has pissed me off is we are going to have to rely on Ramires to play for another 3 f**king games.

Well at least we know that we need to score another goal, that might be a better choice, we need to go for it. Have to rely on some brilliance from Hazard yet again.

Nobody to blame here except for Matic, absolutely foolish to react the way he did regardless, just get on with it.

Devastating to be honest, nevermind, at least we have cushion in points.

Right time to focus on the game at hand. Remember we are still winning this game, we don't want to put Burnley on the front foot but they will be able to sacrifice more players against us now unfortunately.

Barnes should be off anyway with these challenges, f**king poor refereeing.

Oh for f**k sake, we could have done without that... That f**king barnes though.

Hazard seriously needs to start shooting.

The funny thing is we will probably get a penalty when it wasn't even a penalty. That's how the referees roll.

Guys I'm sorry to make you all mad, but in other news Arsenal get a penalty with the contact outside the box.

He hasn't been too bad but I don't think he has stood out, involved in some of the play, did have a good header and movement in the early 10 minutes though.

I don't think the second one was a penalty to be fair, however It's unusual so many people on this forum think it was. I only saw one replay of it and perhaps I was influenced by the commentators but it looked to me that Costa went down really easily. First one though was a clear penalty, if the referee sees it he has to give it.

I think we could have done with getting another to be honest. If Burnley score we might panic and I can see them managing to get something out the game. Pessimistic thought but I wouldn't underestimate the spirit in Burnley, they go into every game with belief.

Well I expect that dive from Costa to be constantly replayed tonight.

That f**king Ashley Barnes, keeps kneeing on every challenge in the air.

Call me paranoid but I've never known a season like it, game in game out we don't get awarded an obvious penalty.

It feels like years since I've spoke about football on this forum

You're saying he shouldn't have been fined? Because ironically out of the pair of JT and Rio it was actually Rio who was the proven racist. To be honest that wasn't even my point I don't know what you mean about it, when I said unprofessionalism like Rio, I was talking about plenty of stupid tweets not just the racist one, his last one were he got fined for calling someones mom. He is just an idiot the way he says stuff, he talks like a troll, you're supposed to be a professional, Stan especially given he is a 'pundit'.

Exactly what it is, Collymore is not going to do any good at all, whatever he is suggesting sounds like a conspiracy theory of Chelsea and Rangers supporting racism and working together blah blah blah. Like we have time to do such things, I guess we've made it a priority instead of winning the league, I guess we don't have any non white players in our team also Stan.

Is he actually planning on making a speech tomorrow about all this? Only god knows what this is going to evolve in... Chelsea and Rangers racist clubs!
