Andy D'Urso does not like us one bit!

Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

3 decent penalty claims according to the radio , cannot say for certain they were or not as I wasn't at the game.

Felt like running on there on several occasions today and giving him a Kirkland, he deseerved it and more, prick. Disgrace to the game. Hope he has a car crash his way home

I think if the positions were reversed and they were given against us, we'd probably be disappointed.

Barnes shot did strike the hand of the defender but he was only a yard or two away and not much he could do to get out of the way.

D'Urso didn't lose us that game - lack of quality and poor decisions in key attacking areas lost us that game.

Agree with you on that bit! But D'Urso greatly assissted with the result today!

I think we piss the refs off.

We get on their backs at the first dodgy decision. I'm sure they start thinking "OK I'm gonna give you f all now".

Maybe true but he did appear to me to be somewhat of a cretin

No wonder he was booted off the Premier League list.

I agree with Bozza.

I don't think D'Urso made anywhere near as many incorrect decisions as the fans were suggesting. Of the penalty claims the only one I thought we had a shout with was a push on Barnes, but they are the sort that are rarely given in the box. I thought some of the free kicks we did get were soft. He didn't let the keeper get medical attention when he was clearly making a meal of it. The handball, while I admittedly called for it instinctively, I immediately changed my mind because it was so close, his arm was by his side and he had no chance of avoiding it.

He had a great game. Got everything pretty much spot on.

Just frustration from the awful performance. Where were you when he wrongly sent off Lambert?

D'Urso must have referred us about 20 times since 1999 and had a shocker every single time. He's also got a grudge against Gus after an incident when Gus was at Spurs.

I think CMS being hauled down by the shoulders was pretty clear.

I thought he was on his way down before contact was made, and was more interested in tangling with the player than trying to win the ball.

Surely a few niggles with D'urso pale into insignificance compared to the following errors:

1. Selling Noone.
2. Titting about over 3 transfer and loan windows with a hotch potch of average strikers/forwards: Paynter, Dobbie, etc.
3. Power struggle with Murray over a modest pay increase. Gus ... nose and spite, springs to mind.
4. All central creative ideas in the hands of injury prone Vicente. Where's the classy back up?

We weren't going to get anything when that wasn't given.

I was directly in line with that, with nothing to block my view, the lino had an identical view.
Shocking decision, the defender had both arms around CMS' neck.

I had the same view, and concur. Definite penalty. Anywhere else on the pitch and that would have been a free kick EVERY time.
