Gohouri should never have played again after the Bolton game.

Sammy your another complete tool who thinks it’s ok to abuse people from the comfort of your arm chair, grow up FFS.[/quote]
This is a public forum where your personal views can be expressed in whatever manner you care to voice them and in return you should expect your opinions to be challenged in the same manner. You are very outspoken and at times abusive – however you care to define that – about what you perceive to be the failings of the team and in particular the inadequacies of the manager.
To single out Gohouri when, as moggy rightly pointed out, other players have been equally at fault, is in my opinion abusive to the player himself and why I asked you to confirm if you really believe he should never play for the team again.

Despite the conditions, I had two pike from Rivington Res. today. Best 13lb 14oz.
Both fell to freelined joey at 40m.I’m not surprised. I bet the pike took the bait thinking nobody would be daft enough to go fishing on a day like today!
The word was that Sunderland had already decided to sack him over the weekend but held back the announcement because of Gary Speed’s death.
So how many Premier League managers have now been sacked immediately after playing us?
The truth is he is out of his depth and that is a fact.
No it isn’t fact it’s your opinion, just as it is the opinion of whoever it was wrote that piece on Mudhutters. What is “fact” is that Martinez – whether he is out of his depth or not – has kept Wigan Athletic in the Premier League for two seasons despite all the constraints and limitations with which he has had to work under.
But when they are good they are indeed good.

Then I am truly disappointed SMB.
I thought he may possess psychic powers which could be put to good use.Who is making the trip to see our lacklustre side kick start Sunderland’s season. We are the whipping boys for clubs to get their season started.So then Yosser, will you be making the trip or will you be subjecting us to your opinions on the deficiencies of the team from the vantage point of your laptop?
Remember the 07/08 season when Latics played United in the last game with United needing to win to secure the league?
Remember that in that game Paul Scholes was cautioned & then several minutes later committed another foul worthy of a caution yet wasn’t sent off by the referee?
Well the day after that, Dermot Gallagher was on talksport being asked about the decisions given & not given by the ref (Latics were also denied a penalty with the score at 0-0 when Ferdinand blocked a shot with his arm). He said that whilst it was a foul & worthy of a yellow card, sometimes a referee doesn’t just referee the game they referee the occasion and as such the ref was right not to issue a 2nd yellow.My points being that a) he is just as capable of talking absolute rubbish as the rest of us & b) as a former ref & someone the media turn to on occasions like this he is very reluctant to say anything critical of decisions made by match officials.
Alot of football decisions are about interpretation & my veiw of our first goal having seen it at the time & from 3 different angles is that Sammon interfered with play both in terms of his starting position & the run he makes as he tries to get back onside
Some other ref’s would disagree but I know many more that wouldn’t.Just because Robinson has a go at his defence as opposed to appealing for offside doesn’t mean anything when things happen in a split second
I cannot see how you can compare the validity of the Gomez goal or the “rolling ball” goal with the Blackburn goal from the corner. Whether you consider Gallagher to be right or wrong I don’t see how either the linesman or the referee – from where he was stood – could possibly determine that Sammon was interfering with play whilst being in an offside position. I tend to agree with you that the goal should have been ruled out but I can fully understand why it wasn’t. Similar incidents happen in games every week and goals are given.
The rolling ball was a marginal thing and it was barely moving when Caldwell took the free kick so again I can understand why the referee didn’t spot it. It doesn’t make it right but it was an understandable error. I should also add that there were other incidents during the game where free kicks were taken with a rolling ball. Sometimes referees aren’t particular bothered about those kind of things if it means keeping the game moving, in much the same way as not being too pedantic about having the majority of free kicks taken from the right place.
However, the corner incident was a gross error of judgement and even if Yakubu had touched the ball it should still have been ruled out for ungentlemanly conduct or whatever the term may be for trying to gain an unfair advantage.And finally, of course all this doesn’t detract from the very obvious fact that the team is where it is because it can’t defend and see out a game. However, I can also understand Martinez being particularly miffed about conceding a goal as a result of such a blatant refereeing error.
I’ve said elsewhere, but skriking about the ref smacks of both desparation & not being prepared to admit that the side just isn’t good enough.Martinez is not one for using referring errors as an excuse for bad results. But, we’re not talking about your usual refereeing error here are we? It is clear from the Sky coverage that Marriner was facing Yakubu as he placed the ball for the corner and presumably, like everyone else, saw that no contact was made. If he had than he would have considered the ball to be in play and wouldn’t have turned his back on proceedings. So when he eventually turned to see Pedersen charging into the box after playing the corner to himself what the hell did he think had happened? The answer is he had no idea because he screwed up big time and wasn’t watching play. Rank bad referring worthy of a suspension and/or demotion so, leaving aside whether the team is good enough or not, I fail to see how Martinez “skriking” about that can be considered as some kind of desperation on his part.
Goals change games and had that been disallowed we would be here debating the merits of the team in a well fought win.Spot on Micky.The numpties on here have memories like goldfish. If we had held on to win 3-2 we’d all have been saying great battling three points and some good positives from certain players. One minute later , a reckless challenge at a corner and everything that has happened in the previous 93 minutes is forgotten. Suddenly it’s Darkside party time again and we’re an embarrassment.
Get a f****g grip.
Correctamundo!
I though it was a cracking game yesterday and if it wasn’t for that reckless challenge at the end the doom mongers on here would no doubt be as absent as an official at a dodgy corner.let’s kick Blackburn off the park on SaturdayThat sounds like a good idea! I wonder if the referee will buy into that one?
