can wayne bridge really be blamed??

[spaghettios]

can't believe people are giving him stick for the goal. havent rated the lad for a long time but he was being fouled like.

[Flabb]

Can't believe no one has mentioned the fact shola pulled him back to get in front of him yet

I haven't seen it on telly yet but was there and gave him no blame. I'll need to see it on telly to gage a proper opinion to be honest. Hope he wasn't to blame tho, last thing we need is a loanee to be blamed for a last minute derby equaliser...

absolutely, he was fouled( ironic perhaps for skunks who though the shirt pulling on Turner wasnt a foul), the ref didnt see it and by then it was too late,

Well it was a foul, ref missed it, goal as a result. No point in moaning about it much now I suppose but there you go, not Bridge's fault. I don't think he should have been brought on though, the mags were hammering us on that side for 30 minutes, to throw him on for the last 10 was a bit of a mistake in my opinion

I agree.

That goal was clearly Kirean Richardon's fault.

[rentaghost]

It was Bridges fault. He was caught on his heels, slow to react and was weak. Subtle shirt pulls are part and parcel and i doubt Bridge himself was expecting a decision there. I would have been furious for example if NUFC had been given a penalty for a slight shirt pull by O'Shea.

It was poor play by Bridge IMO.

Even though Richardson was off the pitch the ESPN commentators were blaming him for it anarl

[Wise Man Says]

I thought Mig could have done better with it TBH.

Watching on the TV, I was just praying for an offside flag but the bastard never came.
