"BBC on Arsenal"

Apparently Henry was offside for the first and Southampton should have had a free kick before the second.

Well, with the ref's backing, they may well win the league at this rate...

True.

What, you mean like... only 5 or so penalties against them at OT in 10 years?

Yup, and we're favoured by officials...

Nah, Scholes should have went though; don't deny it ;)

And Arsenal in the Battle of Old Trafford? Well, they all should have been locked up.

Don't even go there after what you lot done to van Nistlerooy at Old Trafford!

What the heck? That first goal WAS well onside so don't get away from the fact about how Man Utd are treated at Old Trafford oh and well done Scholes ... lucky to be on the pitch last night!

I've said it before, and I'll gladly say it again:

``Until something is done to "assist" referees in their descision-making, they will always have a big-say in the way the Title is decided and which clubs go-down.´´

It doesn't matter whether it's disallowed goals or what; it all effects events and the outcomes of each-game, somehow.


While Arsénal could have one-or-two descisions go their way to assist them in their Title-chase, I fear more for the clubs like Leeds and Wolves, who could be hit by much-worse if they do fall into Div.1 because of one stupid mistake my Paul Dirkin.

And I thought the Arsenal fans were supposed to be the whiners...

Oh well!

Saw the the goals on The Premiership - not much wrong with either.

Out of interest... were you whining about the 'new' offside rule when Nostrilboy scored against Everton, or praising the change?

After a little set-to in midfield, Scholes wandered off about 15 yards with the ball, preventing a quick Boro free kick. If the refs are 'backing' Arsenal, one wonders why he was not booked for it; after all, Ashley Cole was recently booked for a very similar 'offence'.

Yes, the irony of contrasting Arsenal's favour with the officials against the sheer weight of legitimate chances and even goals ruled out for United this year...

Oh the irony.

Make's a change over the years :)

I really hope Chelsea knock them out of the cup and beat them at the bridge in the league.
