Bent refs. How else can you explain our players appeals waved away all the time but our rivals always get the decisions.

I said it a couple of weeks ago and i'll say it again, the reason we don't get big decision's in our favour is because the refs are never under any pressure to give us any. You look at our penalty appeals that get ignored by pundits, highlights shows and the back pages of the newspapers, if it's United, Arsenal or Liverpool, they are all quick to highlight the refs mistake if they get a call wrong against them. The refs don't like the pressure so they buckle and give these teams soft penalties. We have nobody in the media with that kind of influence, our lot are too honest, like Lampard and Gullit. The refs in this country are woeful, they all have their own set of rules ( even though they are supposed to be following the same rule book ), they let skillful players get kicked all over the pitch, and they are too easily manipulated by home fans, the media and football pundits.

If we complain, it just get's brushed off and people say "well it happens to every team".......except that it actually doesn't. I have never seen a team have so many clear penalties waved away as we have over the last 4 season's. They aren't even tight calls either, they are clear penalties. Most of the time, you don't even need a replay to tell that we should have had a penalty. Our players are even starting to get booked now when they are fouled in the penalty area, and still their is no mention of it from Sky, BBC etc, they just go quiet or ignore it completely because we aren't one of their chosen teams. Sometimes it get's so bad that you hear certain parts of the media say our players do down too easy......it's a f**king piss take. Don't even get me started on if a bad decision goes against teams we are playing against. Whenever that happens, Sky and BBC make out that there is a massive injustice (remember the reaction to the Ramires penalty vs West Brom ?) I think this is where a lot of the mistakes come from when it comes to our penalties. When we get a rare bad decision in our favour, people never shut up about it, that then plays on the refs mind in future games and they end up not giving us anything.

I honestly don't know what has to happen for us to actually be awarded a penalty anymore.

Mourinho hit the nail on the head years ago in 2015, MOTD and Sky don't have any Chelsea pundits, every other big team has pundits to protect them. 

Look at the way Shearer was getting emotional about Newcastle being bad (giving them media spotlight above other teams) last night. Would he have gotten that emotional about other teams? Of course not, he wouldn't have analysed it like that. He's a Newcastle supporter, that's what every pundit will do for their team. Where are ours? We have don't have any protection. 

I'll completely agree with you though, there is a reason we don't get penalties as much as other teams, and that's the largest factor. But I don't buy into conspiracy theories about paid refs, if that were true we would be paying them as well, we have a Russian owner who lobbies for Wladimir Putin for f**k sake.

I still can't get over that c**t Oliver laughing when the dippers scored yesterday....:Connie_threaten:

Absolutely right! I thought it was my imagination when I saw it, but you confirm it so I wasn't going mad. That's disgusting if not suspicious.

No one is saying the refs can be bought by Clubs etc........but they sure as hell can be convinced to do what their masters Upstairs tell them to. FFs they have mike Riley as head boss.......what else do you need. I just cannot fathom how some of our own supporters refuse to see that something is badly wrong here......yes call us crazy and what not, but at the end of day if you are just a bit honest, then you will come to admit that we at Chels are getting hammered every game........I dont care WHO we have or dont have as pundits, these bent refs are paid to do their job as best as they can and not worry about what the scum media have to say. If these were proper refs with proper bosses then this sh*t would not happen. You ask yourself this......is the most popular League with the most Money really clean? No way......

Well to be fair Val, it's not as if we have had any lucky goals or dodgy penalties in our favour, say... in the last week.

Ohh yeah thank the heavens we finally got 2 pens......in the CL. Lets see if we get anything later on.......god knows it aint happening in the PL.

Do you think Costa would have escaped punishment if he had done what Lukaku did against Brighton?

 

It's a joke in all honesty. 

Yeah just saw that and you cant say we are surprised. Its utd afterall.......WHO even have Gill there. Give me one good reason why lukaku didnt get punished for that.....he did it twice and the ref seemingly didnt see it. Yet the mighty clean fa sees fit to let it all go. Name me one Chels player WHO would escape in the same manner.

Because it’s the most ridiculous and embarrassing attempt at kicking out at a player ever? What even was that?
