Football fans are pathetically childish generally. Do they really think the people that be care enough about whether Burnley or Sheff Utd go up to start making corrupt decisions.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen a person get more favour from officials than Scott Parker”
He must have got an amazing amount at Fulham and Bournemouth if that’s his conclusion.

Seems like a bad case of persecution complex.
Let's hope it transmits to their team....

I've no idea about the treatment of them, but in the main I'd say the refereeing decisions against us this season have been absolutely awful. So many penalties not given and the goal against WBA (though that's mitigated a little by the PNE goal)
That said, I don't think the red card should've ben rescinded if I take off my claret tinted glasses.

We sang " Jimmy Mullen's Claret and Blue Army " at Derby, this year we might have to change it to " Scott Parker's Media Darlings "

Well, it certainly did in a certain play-off final.
Sorry, just seen the above reply!

They shouldn't think that, the corrupt decisions will start next season when they want us back down again

He did, made a great recovery challenge to block Blake with a tap in and I still think Mike Dean will blow for a penalty each time I see the replay of Kalvenes challenging him.

And I will always be of the opinion that Blackwell's pre-match comments cost them that penalty.
Never mind, what a shame.

Agreed and it becomes more fact than opinion in my head the more I hear Mike Dean talk about how he made decisions because he didn't want to give his mate a hard time or how he was feeling that day etc.

Think it was Walker involved with a Robbie Blake cameo midway through the second half. Robbie went backwards and forwards shielding the ball from Walker who couldn't get anywhere near the ball. All came to an end with their player, Montgomery clattering Robbie which more or less signalled the end of his time on the pitch. A touch of Robbie at his best.
