Well that stunk - red card completly changed the game... Chelsea could never get a footing and were always going to be on the back foot with a man less.

At some points I could swear I was watching the Italians with some of that awful diving. Messi should get pulled up for that bloody role, ridiculous... ref was god damn awful and that guy who's name was spelt something like pirlo's (pyvol ??) was knobber and needed nutting. What a gay haircut he had as well hope he traps it in a floorboard.

Messi may have rolled about, but no more than Del Horno. Puyol was a little lucky not to have got a second yellow. To be fair Barca had one certain penalty not give, and on another day the handball in the 1st half could have been given too. So I don't think the ref was in favour of Barca.
 
Shocking by Barthez. Boro 1 down.

The Chelsea pitch was shocking. The ball didn't run very well, however in fact it hurt Chelsea more in the 2nd half as it seemed to take its toll on the 10men. Seemed an odd choice to water it too.

There was further embarrassment for Chelski today when the club's fans voted that Assier Del Horno deserved to be sent off against Barcelona.

Polled on Chelski's official website, 58% had declared at 12pm that 'Yes, Del Horno should have been sent off'.

There was no official word from Chelski revealing how many fans had voted on the poll, or what action the club were considering taking against them.

I hope there are no death threats made to this referee either, what are the odds on him retiring in a few weeks time?

Classy fans :rolleyes:

Was the ref that bad? Del Horno was unlucky with the red, but could have been booked on more than one occasion, and he failed to give 1 certain penalty (heck he had his whistle to his mouth!) and perhaps another one to Barca.
