The PL is a commercially driven business, globally and it makes its money through TV deals. Scudamore is on record saying he wants certain names lifting the league title because it's good for business and its good for the TV companies paying for the privilege.

Factor that in and the betting industry not just here but globally again, especially in the far east where its been proven time and time again they think nothing of paying to alter results of sporting fixtures and it not a stretch to think the same is happening in our game right here as it has in other sports, cricket especially.

Leicester became a milch cow for the PL and the decisions they got the season they won were quite extraordinary from officials game after game and went a huge way to helping them to a title that again was very welcome in a far east market being targeted commercially.

PiGMOL serve one master and one master only and those within it will do anything to stay within it.

I have absolute faith in what i've been told re our own investigations a few years back where we provided the league with proof that certain refs on the take where doing their best to influence results against us and as its been said, we got resignations and mason being removed from our games for the rest of that season.

Hardly the behaviour of an organisation/people with nothing to hide and its why we never seem to be given a fair shot in games by Mason and a few others since.

If there were proof of this.....and the refs being bent with instructions from above is something I truly believe is the case....why has this evidence not been given a thorough airing in the national press and media?

If it is true that pigmol shite themselves and refs were removed then its an admission of guilt therefore surely those who have or obtained this evidence are morally obliged to make sure every supporter of every club sees it?

Perhaps it should even be brought to the attention of the Police (even though they are more bent than the refs)?

Did he also say Clattenburg was in our pocket as well for a period of time under Thaksin?

He did and it can be demonstrated how favourable Clattenburg was to us in games whilst Thaksin was in charge and how it suddenly changed after he went.

Coincidence?

Its important to make it clear here as far as i'm concerned hat corruption is corruption and ive little doubt that in some games we will have benefitted from it and will do again in the future if that's what the money wants but right now we are getting continually shafted and us being 12 points clear is not a defence that it isnt happening, its too our credit just how good we are right now we can overcome the majority of it.

I'm not belittling anyone. You seem to be on me though. If you just explain wtf is happening and who's involved then it maybe a good debate. And when posters come on and say anyone who doesn't believe its an agenda agaisnt our club is a fuckin bellend, thats it, set in stone. Everyone has to be on board with that?

  1. Yes you are
  2. No I'm not, I'm not picking up every other poster taking the piss out of their opinions, unlike you
  3. I don't have to explain it, it's been done by several respected companies and journos, ignored by the authorities and the likes of you
  4. If you can post where I have called you a bellend then you have the right to mention it, but as i haven't it's clearly yet another defelecting tactic by your whilst besmirching a poster pulling you up for you belligerent attitude towards City fans who comment on what they see backed up with what's in the ether.
  5. Personally I don't the likes of you on board with anything I believe

The press in this country are every bit as bad in their agenda against us, again driven very much by commercial interests as they target a certain readership and its numbers.
 
Here is the most confusing thing about the game to me. I can understand, though I don't agree with, a ref saying- I am going to let them play. It will be a physical, open game, but fair to each side. I will largely stay out of it.

If that's the case, never would that ref take away the goal for the "offside" Sane. If you want to control a game by the slimmest of margins where you take that away, you should be giving out yellows and reds all over. If your calling it that tight the Aguero head butt was a penalty.

The fact you enforce things to the slimmest of margins against one team and leave play wide open for the other screams of either bias or corruption. That's not just incompetence.

Hey mate, you can’t tell me you don’t think Mason was bent today?

I think he’s an absolutely shit ref who clearly dislikes us. Guess it depends how you define “bent”? I don’t think he was under orders, put it that way. I just think he’s an absolute ****.

If he dislikes us he is no longer impartial and he shouldn't be a ref.
 
Any time I’ve read about match fixing and corrupt officiating, it has always been when referees have continuously given fifty fifty challenges a particular way, in order to influence the overall sway of the game.

It’s never on goal or red card decisions as that would be too obvious. I just saw rubbish refereeing today, that was it (to be honest, more rubbish from
the linesman, I do get how in real time, Mason might have missed the severity of the challenge on Sane).

I choose not to believe that. Maybe I am being naive again.

WTF are you rambling on abt. The same poster who's never off this thread came on and stated anyone who doesn't believe our club is targeted/corruption is a bellend. i never mentioned it was you, you need to re read the post.

Problem is that’s a subjective view which is very difficult to prove.

Im happy to sit here knowing we did prove it a few years back and it hurt the fuckers and put noses out of joint.

We are still reaping their response im afraid.

It doesn't excuse a linesman and ref yards away from not seeing it though as its their job.

5 occasions this has happened recently where a clear red card offense has been missed by the referee or linesman against us.

You can say the officials missed it, and that could be true but 10 opportunities for the nearest officials to apply the correct sanction, and yet no time was this done.

You can only call it incompetence for so long before you have to call it what it actually is.

Agreed but as we see on a daily basis where the media have no problem with outing all manner of wrongdoing in the very highest places that could potentially bite them later, I doubt were it to be provable that the rags have indeed been collecting trophies by foul means rather than fair for a couple of decades then I have no doubt that there would be plenty happy to expose it to all.

I have no doubts about the fact that it goes on, but getting proof I suspect would not be easy.

Or even have them looked at retrospectively after the game so that justice is done?

I suppose that only happens to our players though and it needs the usual media witch hunt.
