[QUOTE="Tony Manx, post: 628946, member: 50236"] I agree and, because of his running looking for glory, he gave two penalties which were blatant and unavoidable as he was isolated yet he is supported when Hartley is vilified when at least two of his penalties were extremely harsh....eg for one he was adjudged to take the ball in an offside position when only the ref, and reckon it was a guess, could decide who touched the high ball, not even a second before the catch, as between defender and attacker! Incidentally, Hartley is also being criticised for his all round game yet he was the centre figure in a front row that won the ref over, was visible in defence and attack and he also threw more or less infallibly.....methinks his reputation with some and the fact that he WAS an arrogant dick have not been forgotten or forgiven!! Without him, we would be like the French without Swarezski (Sp!) and stuck with their second or even fourth choice who was USELESS!! [/QUOTE]
