"Tottenham showed to be the equals of man utd today"
Except we were already winning

Yeah, but i doubt VDS would be stupid enough to think it was a freekick when no whistle had been blown.
On replay, Clattenburg clearly made a "What the F*** are you doing" at Gomes

Justice in the end but spastic decision not awarding a free kick after Nani held the ball. It was either Penalty or FK, never resumed play... Ridiculous.
feck of linesman. Arse.
You're forgetting the part where advantage can be played. Gomes had the ball in his hands and the ability to get the losing team on the front foot - something he's been doing since the beginning of the game leading to their counterattacks. It was to Spurs advantage that the ball remained live... That was until Gomes put the ball on the floor, let Nani stand over it, watched Nani look at the ref for confirmation that he can kick it and consequently put the ball in the back of the net.
I don't think it was in the spirit of the game.... but since it went our way, I'll take it. United were already ahead with hardly any time left so it probably wouldn't have changed the outcome except for goal differential. If one goal higher GD makes a difference in standings at the end of the season I'll be very surprised.

Bitter Spurs fan on 606 this will be fun
Nani really needs to stop diving. He is embarrassing himself out there sometimes and because of his reputation, even times when he is actually fouled are not been given.
When advantage is played and the team then lose the ball right away the ref always calls it back and gives a free kick.
How odd. Finally we're able to defend again!
Well done Nani, another great game today. Special mention to Rafa and Park who both played very well. Carrick getting some form back too.
Hard luck for Spurs who generally played very well and gave us a tough game tbh.
Should it not have been pulled back to the initial incident though??
I'm playing devils advocate
BBC:
EmRa on 606:l "Nani handles the ball as he goes down, and holds on to it. Gomes therefore has every right to assume it's a free kick, so he puts the ball down to take it. As the free kick wasn't given, Nani is allowed to nip in and score there, but it's a horrendous decision not to give the free-kick for handball
Yeah retard and it's even more horrendous not to have given the penalty!
he has been worse than the ref all game...and that takes some doing.
Can I say Simon Beck should be taken outback and shot? He is a joke of linesman. Wasn't he the mofaka that let Drogba score from 2-3 yards offside against us and today was calling us offside when we weren't? Idiot caved to Spurs and caused even more controversy.
Thanks goodness for the win - kick on from here.

wont be surprised Beck is demoted to the Conference which is where he belongs.
