Indeed. That said, perhaps something to build on here tonight?Originally Posted by OgtheDim

In before voodoodaddy comes in and complains about Bradley getting in Gantar's face when he literally took the win from us. lol
Don't forget all of Caldwell's handball from before lol.
Im already grabbing more charges and shot,
fuck this ref, we'll keep fighting.
Take that anger.
And then beat Chivas.
Pummel them into the earth.
None of this fooling around and waiting until the end crap.
DeRo starts instead of Bekker please.
We didn't deserve 3 points based on the balance of play, but there's no way that Gilberto's goal should have been called a foul.
Overall, I liked the 4-2-3-1 that Vanney implemented today, but it was obvious throughout most of the game that the players were disjointed on the attack. I hope Vanney sticks with it, because I think it suits our roster, and the players need time to adjust.
I hope we will look back at DeRo's goal as the spark that turned our season around.
That last 10 mins... confidence does wonders to players.
Robbed of 2 critical points (and this is why I'm in support of video replay on critical calls). But a win vs even shittier Chivas USA next week and we are back in the game...

Definintely.
We just tied the MLS version of Stoke City in there place in the last minute, and should have won. We are going to be playing a lot weaker defences over the next two matches. Gotta get better in so many ways.
But, dang that hurts.
You know what, fuck it. I recant my previous opposition to video replay ... that was needed here ... or well, fuck Ganter could've asked his assistants what they thought, but not even a consideration ... fuck
Yes it does. But getting that play in a game where we were shit for most of it is definitely a boost. We pushed back and showed there's still some balls around this team.

Nice to see that Bradley actually gives a shit. Seemed genuinely devastated about that no goal call.
Who watches the video replay and decides if the call stands or not? The same guywho made the call or some @ home office?
Man that hurt.
I have to think that ref gets a new one torn by someone.

There is no way in hell that goal should have been pulled back. That is a fucked up call for sure.
I'm stunned Gilberto even fashioned that chance for himself. What a player. We need a goddamn team around him.
Soumare flops and Gantar rewards him for it, lmao. What did I say about Gilberto getting the worst treatment in the league from refs?
this. and send some goons to take care of this ref.
I'm trying to figure out what he did to piss off all the refs in MLS.
If I'm the Bez, I'm on the phone to Vanney, "I'll write the cheque for the fine, make worth the money."
lol. even Fire supporters think we got robbed

once you get a rep among refs as a diver, you don't get many calls

who are you ? Where you from? Montreal?
Sad because he doesn't even dive. Certainly not since he started scoring; he's learned you have to fight for everything with these refs. So that's what he does and they call him for it anyway. Feel bad for him.
Has Gilberto been fined for diving after the fact? I don't honestly remember but if the answer is no, then that's not a legitimate excuse for me.
Bad call.
Happy for DeRo. Great post game comments from him too... Telling kids to never hang their heads and keep trying.
That said, they didn't play well enough to even earn the tie. If not for Bendik, it was over a long time ago.
I hope they make the playoffs. At the same time, as a Leaf fan I have this déjà vu feeling. That they will play well enough to make it interesting but either fall short or squeak in and lose the first playoff game.
In the end, the only thing that will be accomplished is getting a worse draft position.
Gilberto throws himself around and deserves some of the fouls he gets.
BUT, both he and Defoe have been targetted by refs. I know they claim they don't prejudge, but all of the refs watch tape to prepare for games. They note things and then look for them. And, those notes are most likely shared. We saw this right from the beginning. No protection, which is what DP's usually get at first (and Bradley is getting protected). The refs think Gilberto falls down too easily (remember the push in the back on the break away in Dallas and the non-foul that should have been a red by Collin with SKC?). They also think he's overly aggressive.
And then a diving guy like Amerikwa gets penalty after penalty....
That having been said, Ganter should be demoted for awhile for that call. Sit on the sideline and 4th official the rest of the season.
The team is having difficulty keeping formation as they adapt to totally different tactics and style of play.
The attack is very one-dimensional and static.
This may get better as time goes on.

Well hey, at least we can all agree if Nelsen hadn't been fired Vanney would be the new coach after this game. Nelsen would have been incarcerated for what he'd have done to Gantar after that call
