Bennett: I made right decision

[Section_31]

Echo

REFEREES' chief Keith Hackett insists Steve Bennett stands by his decision to send off Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso for two yellow cards, despite replays suggesting he could not have seen the player's second offence.

 

Bennett was following the action in front of him at Highbury when, behind him, Alonso appeared to slip and fall into Arsenal's Mathieu Flamini.

 

Hackett revealed Bennett felt his decision was the right one and that he may have relied on the judgement of his assistants in issuing the second yellow card.

 

Hackett said: "Steve feels he made the right decision. Ultimately the view is the referees make the decision on the day, and that's where the judgement sits at the moment."

 

He triped over while his back was turned, he's had a chance to see the replay but he feels with conviction that 'deep down' it was still the right thing to do. What an arrogant c*nt..

sums up referees these days, all arrogant and think the game is about them

The twat should be struck off for that. Mistakes happen, but as I said, making a decision on something you didn't even see is unacceptable. To refuse to acknowledge that is even worse.

 

Total cunt.

It hardly helps given that he based his decision on the overreaction of that cunt senderos. What message does this send out? Apart from "STEVE BENNETT IS A TWATBASKET"

Bennett is a useles fucker withtout the courage to admit he was wrong. I fyou look at the replay you can see that Xabi was not even looking at the player and it's is blatantly obvious that he slipped and fell into the player. Bennet , a small man with no honour.

OKIE DOKEY then i hope the Chelsea supporting Twat gets raped by kosovon terrorists fighting for the good of mankind!!!

He may have relied on his assistants? But he didn't though, did he? He didn't consult with the linesman at all. Which means he gave a decision based on an incident he din't see. And he was wrong.

Wanker, tosser, small-dicked self-important prat.

 

I don't mind mistakes (apart from lino's disallowing Fowler Strikes), but I hate cowards who cannot admit a mistake.

[Brownie]

Unbelievable quotes them. It's a disgrace if we're being honest because it was clear for EVERYONE to see that he slipped. The cheeky bastard has the audacity to send him off without even seeing anything and then when confronted with the facts via a television refuses to change his mind.

 

What a complete and utter prick he is.

[Stu Monty]

Anyone got a clip of the sending off?

[Sangria]

Four words is all it takes " I got it wrong " anyone not capable of that is in my book a grade one Cunt thus from now on in my books he is known as Steve the cunt Bennet.
