When it comes down to the 50/50 decisions, The English Refs will go with the English teams!! This is not based on opinions it's a fact ! Remember the the play off semi final against Leicester ? Solano blatant hand ball in extra time . Definate penalty HOWARD WEBB ( remember him) just waved it away . Lucky enough we won on penalty's . Howard Webb again against Reading , he gave us Fcuk all !!! Remember Shane longs hand Ball for the first goal ? Howard Webb again against Hull. Kenwynne jones ,stone wall penalty .. West ham at home , don't know who the ref was .. Frazier Campbell assaulted in the box !!! Away at Liverpool Skirtel 2 Deffo Pens ... My mate in work who is a Jack , said the same thing has been happening to them too .. Am i right ????????

I don't think its because we are Welsh..... But I am sure the premier league wouldn't mind seeing the back of Vinny T

Nothing to do with Tan , The Jacks get the rough end of it too like us

The Jacks are a quaint story keeping the rag to riches fairy tale alive....But, the premier league is a money making machine and I am sure they would love clubs capable of 35K plus each week

Maybe they don't want Welsh teams beating their precious English teams

Or maybe like all people they are subject to human error and we have had poor luck when it's come to penalties
Refs have good days and bad days but moaning about penalties that should/shouldn't have been is bollocks - we lost end of
It works both ways anyway - Baines should have been awarded a pen against us when we drew 0-0
I guarantee that if we get awarded a penalty this season the ball will be skied over the bar into the crowd anyway

I believe we would be probably 6 points better off if we were treated fairly this season. Yesterday the referee didn't make a mistake. Everyone could see it was a penalty on Zaha. Shortly after, Zaha runs onto a through ball down the left, the defender blocks the cross and the linesman flags for a corner. The referee overrules the linesman, enabling Everton to go down the other end to score. I personally felt cheated yesterday and when you consider not just the good penalty shouts, but the stone wall penalties we should have had this season, it's an outrage we haven't had one penalty kick this season.
Regarding Swansea, I was also told on the way back yesterday that Swansea didn't have a single penalty given to them in their first 2 seasons in the Premiership, but that can't be right as they just said on MOTD2 that Swansea had 6 penalties in the Premiership under Brendan Rodgers?

Not true. The Welsh teams have (IMHO) been pretty welcomed in the Premier League so far
Tan won't even be a blip on the radar of the EPL money men at the moment and there are worse than him out there in reality
Like it or not, Tan is a 'local' issue and not a national one and his apparent notoriety outside of Cardiff simply allows him to be used as a 'tool' by other club's supporters to wind us up!
If it wasn't that, it would be something else!

I hate this anti welsh bollocks, it's been said a millions times before yet here we are, both teams in the Premier league. The refs are not bias against us because we are Welsh or owned by Tan. It's just the way it goes. We has a hell of a lot of decisions go our way last season remember? The decisions tend to go for the in form team, and we were that team last year.

Please remind me what decisions went for us last season? I remember Ben Turner having his head kicked off a few yards inside the box and the officials bottled it and gave a free kick instead! We won the title last season because we deserved it, not because decisions went for us!

We deserved it but we also had the rub of the green I seem to remember. It's the way it goes and to suggest that we are victims of xenophobia by English refs is preposterous to say the least as both clubs are in the Premier league.

I don't remember thinking coming out of a game last season "the ref bailed us out there", but I didn't go to every away game last season, so I could be wrong. Apart from the Baines penalty, I can't remember many other crucial decisions that went in our way this season.
