How did Cardiff’s goal stand ?

Seems we’re in the minority here. I don’t think he’s getting it even without a challenge

Possibly not. But the other bloke does clearly foul him - using his arm at full stretch. It couldn't be a more clear foul tbh

If someone had terrible eye to hand coordination for a goalie, wouldn't that still mean they were a totally shit goalkeeper? He has had a bad spell coming for crosses lately but over the course of his time in the first team, surely you'd have him down as a plus rather than a minus?

I was at the wrong end for the Cardiff shot that hit hit the post second half but to me it looked like a great save. I think keepers have a hard time in general, their good bits get forgotten unless it's a genuine worldie but everyone remembers the bad things.

I reckon there's a decent chance Patto will play Premier League football within the next 2-3 seasons, the same as a few of the other lads. Cracking young team we have at the mo, just hope we can keep most of it together and keep building 👍

Anyone got a clip of that save. From where I was it was a big baffling what had actually happened.

Not as baffling as the drop ball mind!!
 

Bond isn’t a very good referee mind, it’s not just in our games - others aren’t impressed with him either.

The drop ball really baffled me.

The drop ball was a disgrace of a decision. The ball is clearly seconds away from going out, you don't need to stop the game as it's about to be stopped.

That to me in itself screamed dodgy, like almost as if he wanted to make up for something else potentially?

I don’t think it was dodgy, just a really poor and baffling decision. He seems to do it fairly often.

Your talking absolute shite as per usual. Yous obviously got it in for the ref in question. No way are you going into any match he officiates you watch objectively. He's obviously a more than competent ref as the people who watch him week in, week out still decide he's good enough to officiate at a very high standard still. He'll make errors like the rest of the do but that par for the course given how difficult the job is

He’s rubbish. There’s far better young referees than him. Most of the refs in this league are alright, especially the young ones. Darren Bond is rubbish.

But like - if there was no foul - why did he need to stop the game at all? we know it wasnt a foul because it would have been a free kick? and it was about to be stopped as the ball was going out if he wanted to talk to someone for whatever reason

i was watching it on stream so i might have missed what happened off the ball?

Clearly gets too under the ball before what, if any, contact was made. Lad clearly fluffed his lines again. Really weak stuff.

Agree, looks like the ball has already passed him before the lad clatters into him. Patterson barely gets off the ground to claim. Adding to the fact Hjelde pushes him into Patterson. See the Schade non-penalty on Saturday night for an example at the other end of the field.
 
As annoying as VAR is, it’s stuff like this that it would easily clear up and could be the difference between promotion/relegation

Some people would rather its not given as a foul so they can continue to blast Patterson. Very little said about his brilliant save though that kept it at 1-1 in a key point of the game.

But it’s ok saying that when it goes against us but only last week we benefited massively from not having VAR at Sheff Wed. They should have had a pen and our doesn’t goal would not have stood. Totally different game then.
We just have to take the bad alongside the good.

Yeah and the week before that we should have had a penalty against Hull but didnt. I think the decisions even themselves out.

This incident seems to be more about whether Patterson was to blame or not, rather than should Sunderland have had a free kick or not. There's a discreet difference in the agenda's at play.

Perhaps i should say not good enough hand eye coordination and reaction time to make it in the prem and has to many flaws in his overall game ........he might i hope get a run in the prem with us but the prem is an elite league and there are defo 20 better goalkeepers out there than patto so he might get a back up gig at a top team but unless he improves significantly he wont get a slot as a number one at a prem team.Basically im a fan and ive made a judgement about patto i think the is to heavy ,lumbering and slow to make it as a prem goalie his distribution is awful and his decision making is of a very poor standard ,he just hesitates to come off his line or come out for the ball when its clearly what he should do and turns what shoud be a cakewalk into a nightmare!
This is simply my opinion and im quite happy to accept yours as equally as valid but all we need to do is wait and see what happens in the next few years and i hope im around in 5 or so years time for you to bump this thread

It looked like a mistake to me .... if the defender wasnt there patto would not have touched the ball he was way off as he had simply misjudged the fright of the ball !

Yeah I agree that there are areas to improve on, the Premier League is unforgiving and weaknesses are highlighted quickly. I think the potential is there with Patto though, he is still young for a keeper and there is room for improvement before he reaches his peak years age wise. He also has a lot of experience for a player his age which will stand him in good stead later on.
Ah yeah it's all about opinions! I think he is having a shaky spell coming for the ball but think he will come out of it a stronger player (the only problem is that it's a bad time to be having a shaky spell!).

And if that’s how it falls then so be it. At least we know there’s a greater degree of fairness being applied
 
It was a foul. Touched the keepers arms whilst he’s trying to catch it. Soft but thats today’s game. VAR 100 % would have given it. Still don’t want var

Patterson is becoming a scapegoat - unfairly so. Let’s get behind the lad
