A bad decision for offside and a blatent penalty all within two minutes.

[Row Z Royal]

Fair dos. Thought that iit was something to do with anthems as I read three successive posts together.

Seriously, first minute of a cup final and an awful offside decision is made which results in a penalty not being given and the keeper not being sent off, then another penalty not given in the build-up to Zigic's second chance. Forget the chance, the penalty should be given regardless. Key, key decisions ging in Arsenal's favour. And people think that big clubs don't get the rub of the green? Seriously, Mike Dean is an absolute bottlejob of a referee.

How on earth was that Mike Dean's fault? That was the lineman's fault. He called it off-side and the referee wasn't in a position to question that - but he was in the right position for play. The flag goes up before the keeper brings Bowyer down. Yes it wasn't off-side, and yes it was a penalty, but in no way is that the refs fault.

The first one? No, not Mike Dean's fault. The second one, however...come back to me on that one.

[Row Z Royal]

That's a blow.

To be fair, they've got a lot to thank Foster for, have Brum.

[Rex]

There will be a few sulks at work tonight. Shame.

[SLAMMED]

That's a blow.

And a lot to thank Szczesny for.

If anybody says Birmingham's defensive performance today was quite superb then go and watch another sport please. A quite superb performance.

To go on from my previous point about Mike Dean, where the hell did he find 40 seconds from at the end there? Another advantageous decision for a big 4 club.
