The FA.
yes, but I meant so they can put it here and we can read it?
That's correct. I haven't seen it but I have seen samples of the analysis that would go into something like that and it's virtually incomprehensible to a layman.No.
PB will confirm, but I gather that this was a dossier created at City's request and given by them to the FA. it won't be available publically.
Very well said.I get where you are coming from but if that was the case that they are simply not good enough then surely they wouldn't be good enough for both teams? both teams committed 20 fouls Sunday, one team picked up 5 yellows the other picked up 2. Best case of us being refereed differently is Kun getting booked for lobbing the keeper when offside at Burnley whilst Son getting away with the same thing at home to us - it was the same ref!
Up until this season I didn't have the victim mentality however it is very clear to see we don't get treated the same as other teams. If the refs wasn't good enough then the old "they even themselves up" would actually happen or at least come close to happening.
Just wondering what will happen to the ref running the line who said the ball went out when it clearly didn't cross the goal line. Probably end up getting a huge bonus by the FA for making such a huge mistake. I would like someone from the FA organising committee to publish in the press how they are going to compensate MCFC for their failure in appointing this so called assistant in the 1st place. As this huge mistake in all probability has cost us a place in this years FA Cup Final.
33000 city fans may as well have stayed at home and saved a small fortune, its beyond the point of being honest mistakes, it's corrupt to the core, i dont believe in the integrity of the game anymore, scudamore bemoaning his lost viewers because of united struggling, Gill sat cosily in the FA, it all stinks to high heaven, last season was bad, this season has been fraud, it just isn't possible to be on the end of so many game changing decisions, if we get a shocker tomorrow, i feel i might just get up and go home
It's more than the decisions, it's who the decisions were against. Luiz, Walker, Milner, Monreal - all game changing decisions against our direct rivals. Fair enough every team gets the shitty end of the stick a few times throughout the season but none as obviously as us, and not in as many crucial games.

Thoughts?
That could be amazingThat's old news from about 4 years ago but only scratched the surface. There were a number of convictions but it was really only about one ring and a handful of people. I believe the FBI is now collecting evidence on a much wider scale about domestic match-fixing in the UK and they won't fuck about.

FIFA have confirmed that video refereeing will be used at the 2018 World Cup, which Is a positive development.
A US Federal investigation sounds an interesting prospect, but then you have to consider the diplomatic angle. If said investigation turned up evidence of widespread corruption involving the FArce/PGMOL/PL (Gill/Reilly/Scudamore), and it transpired that League positions were being manipulated by underhand and devious means then it would pretty much be the end of football as we know it.Hmmm.... Interesting, I wonder how the FA and PGMOL will try to cover their stuff up. But I would like to see how their investigation turns out tho

Considering the amount of revenue that the Tax Man gets from football related activity (sponsorship/transfers/advertising/ticket sales/betting), do you really think the government would want the lid blowing on this, or do you think that they would come to some sort of agreement with the US Government to suppress any evidence?
I really don't know what the solution would be. I'm almost resigned to accepting it is bent, and in some ways I wish I didn't know. Unfortunately, that particular genie is out of the bottle, and for me football will be forever tainted.Exactly the case, the cost of any wrong doings would be astronomical even to those being wronged, Sheikh Mansour's investment in City would be lost in an instant
