talkSPIT urgently trying to upgrade the Bravo-Rooney coming together into a missed penalty decision, true as ever to their agenda.

As I saw it Bravo got the ball first and wiped Rooney out with his follow through. You could see why the ref didn't give it. As for the pundits, the same ones will be moaning next week about "tackling being outlawed in the game" when one of their favourites tries to perform on-field amputation on somebody.

They've even got Stuart Pearce in the studio singing from their hymn sheet as well.
Very disappointing.

I've just said in the other thread, it was a fantastic tackle! You won't see a better 50/50 win this season. Plus there's no rule against studs showing. I wish these 'experts' would fuckin do their research!! It's if the player is in control of the tackle or not. Unless that's changed now.

Just seen the sky player performance ratings which rated Bravo a 3. A fucking 3. Guess that's what you get for not actually having to make a proper save in 96 mins

if they've given (west ham's) adrian a 2 then they are justified to give bravo a 3
edit: adrian got a 5. using that logic bravo should be 8

Did I miss something or did he only let one in (albeit he was a tad at fault). Think Adrian might have let 4 slip in. Against Watford. I don't think he had a dream debut by any stretch by the way but surely not a three? Unless that takes into account him having to do pretty much naff all
