There seems to be a lot on t'internet from Blackburn claiming they didn't deserve to lose.

I wasn't at the match but can anyone tell me, were there any contentious match changing decisions? Should any of our players been sent off? Were there any blatant penalty decisions go against them? These are all rhetorical questions as I know the answer is no.

So Blackburn were in fact beaten fair and square and as there was no evidence of any foul play, despite their huffing, puffing and hoofing the ball forward, deserved to lose.

Football is full of injustices and poor decisions where teams can claim they didn't deserve to lose. The European Cup final in 1975 where we were denied two blatant penalties and had a perfectly legitimate goal disallowed being one. The European Cup Winners Cup Final in 1973 against AC Milan which was shrouded in corruption where the referee was banned and never reefed another game another. There's more including WBA at home in 1971. These three games alone could have cost us a league title, Eurpoean Cup and European Cup Winners Cup.

Now that's injustice for you Blackburn.

spot on MM,

games often work out like that. The game against middlesborugh a while back (when sharp scored I think) we had no right winning that game yet did. Then other games we played well but still lost, like the brighton game last week (ok not that game but here have been loads) .

Unless it is something like the 75 cup final, hand of god of Henry being a cheating scumbag against the irish I don't see the point in them banging on about it. Same with cardiff but all accounts they should of smashed us but we won. That is signs of a good team after all!

Was it the cwc where the ref flew to I think selonica on the same plane as the Milan team?

Blackburn should have kept Varney on he is always worth a penalty. Don't really care who deserved to win after last year's farce.
