I'm very happy with the result - now Chelsea have to win a difficult game at Old Trafford to make the title race completely down to the wire.

I don't understand the people constantly criticizing the ref. I thought the refs got a majority of the decisions right regarding cards and free kicks. Of course, they missed the Vidic incident, but in any game there will always be missed penalties (plus Vidic was very sneaky in his hand placement). To call the entire game poorly reffed because of that one incident is a bit unfair in my opinion.

I would say that both of those penalty appeals (I'm guessing you are talking about Evra at the 66 minute and Owen at the 88th minute) were 50/50 at best. In both cases the contact was relatively minimal and the United players made the most of their challenges. From first glance, I didn't think either were a penalty and the replays didn't change my opinion.

Edit: Now watching Match of the Day, the Owen incident looks pretty clearly like a penalty to me. :o|.

1-1, Totti scores the equaliser (vs Bari) with a majestic free-kick and has now scored as many Serie A goals as Baggio. Fucking Baggio, man!

Huge moment in his career.

Come on Roma, you must win vs this crap team.

And his playmaking abilities are as good as ever. :D Should've gotten an assists there if he had better teammates.

BLARGH, the fuck is this? 2-1 Bari... -__-

AND NOW HE SCORES AGAIN, WITH A PERFECT PENALTY! Couple of centimeters to the right and the goalie would've taken that. Super well placed. 2-2, and now Totti is past Baggio; 206 goals in Serie A. Hero.

stimp whining in a football thread about refs, shocking

If you look at many games in every league, from Spain to Argentina, and from Mexico to UK, its either 1 or 10 refs that have very lackey games and people complain about it, (In those people I include myself) and really I don't see a major problem.
But hey your opinion I respect it.

Holy fucking hell, can't complain about the amount of drama in that game. Bari takes the lead twice, Totti bring Roma back twice, 3 red cards, 3 penalties (Totti missed one

), Bari has a shot in the bar in minute 91, but Roma finally scores the winning goal in minute 96 and are therefore still in the race for the last Champions League spot. Holy hell, I'm exhausted.
