It's obvious, our players don't appeal as loud as other teams players :ph34r:
Some thoughts:-
Our players don't put pressure on refs like other clubs players do. When they try, they get booked for back chatting. Other clubs players do it en masse and get away with it more often than not.
Think of the number of times we've seen Utd, Chelski, Arsenal players surrounding the ref, giving him greif after he gave a decision against them. How often do our players do that?
I think it's too easy for refs to give bad decisions against us.
The press also make it easy too, refs know they aren't going to get pilloried for making a bad decision against us.
