What is with Villa and refs recently ?
Without exception we have been given nothing from the refs and today is no exception.
Not only does Milner get a malicious and vicious elbow in the throat from Mikel we get a penalty given against us, clear dive from the already booked Zirkhov. The referree Peter Walton fell for this hook, line and sinker to send us one down at halt time.
However this was a very positive performance from Villa, started the game very well, but went behind to a bit of a defensive disaster but recovered for Carew to take advantage i the same way Lampard did for the thier first.
Game then looked to be a draw at HT until Zirkhov dived and the ref fell for it because it is Chelsea of course and the never cheat eh ??
Some hope for the second half if the ref is fair to both sides.

We have had a lot of very poor decisions from match officials for a good while now.While I didn’t see today’s match yet I have seen a number of crucial decisions good against us or not for us…especially against the ‘top’ sides.Whether or not it would have made a difference today I don’t know….but 7 -1 can’t all be down to another poor ref.
Rubbish mate. What about the other goals?
JT has just said on match of the day after 60mins villa will start flaggin!!!!!! guess what he was right we are fucked!! he would konw!! but atleast he has the stamina to deal with it
to be fair guys, this is clearly an HT report !!!
written without the benefit of a proper replay, which does apparently show a touch
Anyone investigate the back four ,keeper and the referees if they were paid by Roman? Few years ago when chelsea was champion,Angel from Villa help out chelsea to score in free kicks. Referee Rob Styles always offering chelsea free kicks and penalties when they could not score and he used to work for Roman.Where is he now? cheaterfc is the biggest cheat in the Premier League.
