I saw the hoo-hah about the performance of Hooper on Saturday teatime, and the Austin interview, but due to a dinner engagement didn't see the game until this morning.

 There is nothing I can really add that hasn't already been said, apart from there were two catastrophic decisions that really should have been dealt with differently, BUT I want to pass comment about Mark Hughes and his hypocrisy.

  Some of you may recall five years ago this weekend my beloved club Sunderland were at Stoke City who was managing at the time when the match referee Kevin Friend sent off Wes Brown for making a perfectly timed tackle where the ball took a different course .In the referee's opinion it was reckless and the man was played first.As stupid a decision as you will ever see that on the previous forum caused a lot of debate. We ended up losing 0-2.

 In fairness to the referee he recinded the decision immeadiately and from what we could see got neccesary development before refereeing in the PL again.

 Mark Hughes however was the only person in the civilised world who thought the tackle was outrageous and praised the referee's courage for sending Wes off.

 What goes around comes around Mr Hughes.That totallly wrong decision to disallow a perfectly good goal could not have happened to a better person.
