Just shows you how poor the poor the refs are these i've been hearing that they sent off the wrong Arsenal at the Chelsea Vs Arsenal game WTF.

if you get beat and it's deserved and not controversial then i can accept it. but seriously WTF! what makes it worse is it wasn't even a sending off!

Its funny that footballers can get punished but nothing seems to happens to a ref at worse they can dropped for a game but apart from that nothing, even as a Spurs fan Arsenal were hard done by the ref.

I hope that the ref does face some sort of punishment for the mistake he made.

hang on, you don't think the hand ball was a sending off?

The worse that will happen is that they'll ban him for a game.

i haven't seen it but i'm going by everyone's opinion on soccer saturday. they all agreed that it wasn't a sending off offence. so in this case i'm deferring to their expertise.

it was a good save! i think the rules are if it's a deliberate handball it's a booking unless it stops a certain goal, which is a sending off. the ball was clearly going wide so it's a booking.

but how the fuck did he send off the wrong player?
