The referee’s a….. lovely bloke, no really, he is

What is it with Spurs and referees this year? First there was the now infamous “Roy Carroll cheating, the ball was clearly over the line, Stevie Wonder would have given it” incident at Old Trafford in January. Yesterday we got robbed of a place in the FA Cup semi’s by a ref who disallowed a perfectly fine goal from Robbie Keane then missed Bowyer’s hand-ball. To be fair Shay Given played a blinder, was well deserving of man of the match and would probably have saved the penalty but it’s no consolation is it?

So there is to be no St Hotspur's Day this year, no silverware for another 12 months and we’ll have to qualify for Europe by finishing above Liverpool. Easy, easy, easy, easy……
