First 16 games this season, utd and Spurs didn't have a single player sent off. Now plenty of players should have gone for second yellows that didn't, but these two didn't get a single player sent off whereas it should have been over 20 each.

This is an enlightening read, but only confirms what we know. The PGMOL and Premier League will just give this a thorough ignoring as it won't suite their clear agenda, which is to Make the Rag's relevant again = More TV revenue from selling their games all over the World.

True but at least the story is starting to get out. Waiting for the football is fixed book to come out but guessing it will vanish similar to the football leaks info that's been ignored by 99.99% of the football world

when you think of how much less revenue and value City would be worth if a scandal hit the PL or UEFA CL, then you can see why we just take it.

It's wrong, but our ownership can solve much more difficult problems than getting rid of Goebbels Gill in their daily regime, yet they choose not to.

I'm hoping Football Is Fixed will be a game changer (no pun intended) in the fight against corruption.

 

[MadchesterCity]

It's clear PGMOL and many of our current crop of referees are corrupt

I expect we will see United heavily favoured against Chelsea tomorrow.

What we should expect is impartiality and a fair playing field

A hit on Gill would be very pleasing

It is amazing that Amrik and David share the same surname!!!

Gill must be a bye word for corrupt?

Wonder whether there's a directive not to give us penalties this season? Another stonewaller turned down today.

Although Sane said it wasn't a penalty. Mind you, how would he know??

It was a pen and wasn't a corner. Ref got it very wrong

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Would it have been given if the nose or any other raggy player was in Sane's position?

You know it would,fucking hell BT even with 45 plus minutes to come up with no penalty couldn't manage it properly.

It was a pen for any team other than a small club away at a big team or us....

Bar the obvious decision I didn't think he was too bad too. Shame he ruined it with that one. Not sure why Sane is saying that.

Didn't matter today. Maybe we might get one next week....and then again....

Well there have been a few explanations;

1. He was being a gracious winner.
2. He only saw it once but a ref using video replay saw it multiple times and judged it a penalty.
3. Sane doesn't know the rules.
4. Sane is an undercover rag. (This one I inferred from interaction on the Match thread.

But if you ask me I'd say he probably said it because in fact it wasn't a penalty. :) but hey...

I'd have to agree with your very last line.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Clear pk and no card for hack job on kuns ankle. Wtf

 

[MadchesterCity]

I thought Sane was a pen, but we eventually seen a repeated replay which inconclusively appeared to suggest there was a hand in the balol, wasn't the angle I would have chosen for the replay mind

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

Poor today. That was never a foul throw.

 

[inchy14]

How he didn't book their CH for dragging Silva back I'll never know, card all day long.

 

[meltonblue]

I didn't think it was a pen, the replay from the side shows the ball spin after it goes past Forster, so he must have had a touch. I was actually surprised BT kept pushing it as I thought it was quite clear he touched it.

I did think the ref was quite inconsistent with his cards today though.
