I thought it was hilarious. Barton stopped halfway down the pitch to rub it well in.

I thought that he played pretty well overall though.

Some of his passing was really good and he got in between our defence and midfield pretty well at times, for a fat old fella.

I think there's a comma missing in the third line.
The grammar police will be along shortly.

It was also handball and a free kick for touching the ball twice from a deadball situation. Neither of which were given.

But it was funny.

We got a free kick, Heaton took it from the corner.

Oh.

Took his mishap well. I thought Adam played well and was probably Stoke's best player along with their No10.

Their No 10 was Arnautovitch. He was shocking

Priceless moment. Kevin Friend should have joined in the comedy though and booked him for deliberate handball :lol:

Adam was just about the only player they had worth writing about last night. Berahino had the odd nice touch and Diouf was a handful without ever really threatening, but Adam was a constant problem with his passing. Can't help but think he'd be perfect for us with those first time balls into the channels. Gray and Barnes would thrive off those.

The corner was beautiful, especially from my view in the JMc Upper. Hilarious.

I know Heaton's kicking is excellent generally but it was quite a risk him taking it having just seen someone else lose their footing down there. Surely an outfield player should have taken the free kick?

Was very funny. But he's still an excellent player. Stood out for them last night, I wish we'd managed to get him in the close season when we were interested.

Agree with those above, he was excellent last night, was surprised by the pace he has for his girth

He should have been booked for handball.

We were just about to start one of our lightening counter breaks

Exactly, a player fell over. So Heaton could have also fallen with no defensive cover... :roll:

Why the ref couldn't see immediately that he'd kicked it into play then deliberately handballed it, I don't know. But the linesman needed 10,000 people to point it out until he noticed too.

Heaton waited until the assistant ref moved away then moved the ball about 5 yards.

Funny moment but take nothing away from his stand out performance. He is a wily campaigner, can pick a pass and has a terrific left foot shot. I too wish we had managed to prise him away from Stoke.

That foot race in midfield he won against Barton was brilliant. The ref had to slow his pace to keep up with play.

Charlie Adam will go into football folklore that clip of the corner will probably appear on Christmas DVDs for years to come.
