We didn't do a much better job this past year.

It'll be brushed under the carpet, City have won the league and that's all that matters.

Not seen the game yet, but I always thought he was quite fair whenever he reffed us. He's not got us relegated. We did that ourselves

You'd be right to say we got ourselves into this position. We deserved to go into this last game needing a win.

What we don't deserve are two bad decisions that put us down. Bad season aside, if the referee made two correct calls, we win 2-0 and stay up.

We are at fault for most of the season but the fact is, if the referee made the right calls today, we'd still be in the Premier League.

No if we held on against Brom we'd be in the league. If we hadn't given 6 points to Norwich we'd be in the league.

If, if, if.

We're down. Sooner we accept that the sooner we can come straight back up.

Not in to ref bashing, we have not been good enough over the course of the season and deserve to be relegated due to finishing in the bottom 3.

Granted the Stoke goals were his fault, but fact was Bolton got two goals out of nothing in the first half and were very lucky to be ahead at half time, and didn't do enough to build on the lead / get back in the lead in the 2nd half. Only the Petrov shot just wide and the late Ream header seemed like genuine big chances from where I was stood.

It'd be ridiculous to blame Mr Foy for relegation - it's the season as a whole that's put us down, and we've had plenty of questionable ref decisions going our way (qpr goal not given for example) to balance out what happened today.

The more I watch the first goal the worse it gets.

Sadly, it still isn't to blame for the 'R' next to our name, is it.

Agree with this, we've had our luck at times, on the season overall we got what we deserved.

Havent seen a replay lets face it sitting in the stand you coud see the first one was a shocker.

Couldn't tell on the second without a replay.

Irrespective I don't think we deserved to win the game today, or really did enough to win in. Second half especially.

Can't blame anybody but ourselves for relegation, agreed. That said, how that absolutely blatant foul on Bogdan was allowed to stand is ludicrous. Just seen the Crouch thing again in real close up too,and he was halfway down with a leg behind before he got touched. Okay, the ref probably had to give that, but it's a fact that if he'd done his job on the first and been fair, we'd be celebrating and still in the "Barclay's Premier League".

It wasn't, nor was it in the quadrant when it was taken. But having been given and taken, it was over the line.
