Life in the old dog yet! He has just posted this on Facebook. Couldn't agree with you more JR. We were properly cheated.
"Thank God i am not in football anymore referees like Woolmer would have given me a heart attack.It's about time he retired and did the game a favour I still haven't forgiven him for awarding a penalty and sending Matt Mills off when Shefti Kuqi clipped his own heels at Crystal Palace.I complained long and hard but he his still around and obviously hasn't improved."

That game at Palace was the one where the referee finally gave us a free-kick after a string of challenges which went unpunished and he got a louder than usual sarcastic applause from our fans.
He then turned to the nearest player, can't remember who, and brandished a yellow card for absolutely nothing.
One of the worst refereeing performances there was. Right up with Russell the Pompey referee, though given we were basically already relegated and the match was nearly meaningless, that one didn't infuriate as much.
