Quite a kerfuffle, then.
The first half was certainly more watchable than the second. But the whole gig was undermined by a referee that I predict if you call him in a years time you’ll hear, ‘Hi Dominoes, Marc speaking…’ on the other end of the phone.
Ratings then…
Gomes 6 Little to do
A&E 8 As good as it gets. Nice work, fella.
Begbie 6 Attacking, but his passing was ‘iffy’.
Gallas 5 Couple of decent moves, but looks a bit pants.
Kaboul 8 Defensively – extremely good stuff.
Azza Blud 7 Played very deep and his tracking back was often immense.
Sarge 5 Largely the victim of a rather retarded Ref.
Modders 8 Not a luxury player, Smith you tool…
Bale 8 Wot No Hattrick? Bale Out!
VdV 8 Class act.
Crouch 5 Achieved little. A poor Ref, but he failed to move on from that fact.
Sandro 6 …but should almost certainly command 7’s and 8’s in future.
Pav 4 Not a dig. I love the chap, but he produced schnichts.
