Referees/Officials 2017/18 performances

[1961_vintage]

We are still reaping their response im afraid.

I suspect that vengeance is uppermost in Mason's mind when he gets told he's got one of our games.

 

[blueinsa]

When/how did we prove it?!

You know how we did it mate.

Whether you believe it or not is another matter.

I genuinely don’t know what you’re talking about.

 

[St.Pauli support]

Whether bent, biased or incompetent, I'm really fucked off about that shower of shite today.

A fantastic goal disallowed on flimsy evidence, a blatant, shocking challenge not punished properly.

It's ruined the fucking day for me, I'm just pissed off about the whole thing.

Same here.
It's taking away any fun or desire to watch any further City match. It's frustrating.

Anyway, this match should never have been played. Cardiff is such a shite team with a dinosaur of a manager,
they wouldn't have scored in 100 years.
City were in complete control. Worldclass artists vs a bunch of Homo erectus.

As we cannot change bent/incompetent refs we have to change our game to avoid any contact by passing early before an opponent player is able to attack. Furthermore we need to play around our own box when we are winning and play the fuckin clock down. Boring football, but not our problem. City is always ready for a good match of footy, but not if we are f***ed crosswise.

A yeovil player was booked for nothing 20 SECONDS into the rags game,they were protected from the start,we get the exact opposite treatment,instructions from someone

 

[kiam06]

Why do I always feel that the officials are looking to stop our play or create an issue for us?

The Benardo goal today should have stood but that linesman knew it would kill the game he deliberately overturned it knowing there was nothing wrong.

You could watch all the European games this weekend and you will not see a goal like that disallowed.

There was more to that decision than a simple error.

 

[The blue phantom]

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.

That's a total dif ballgame then. As if we are benefiting too regarding corruption in certain games, surely that means we are not being singled out.

There seems to be two theories on here. Betting Markets, Asian. Corrupting our game.

And also Our Club just solely being the target of FA. Sky. Pgmol. PL.

Yeah, that’s how I feel. I should be buzzing about a 2-0 win away from home in a potentially tricky game, but find myself angry about Sane’s injury and, to a lesser extent, Bernardo’s disallowed goal. Spoilt the game.

 

[franksinatra]

I suspect that vengeance is uppermost in Mason's mind when he gets told he's got one of our games.

Vengeance? If what has been written on this board is true and we have evidence of corruption against Mason do you honestly think he would disallow a goal when we are 1-0 up in a cup tie were strolling through when, we have the power to expose him as a cheat and destroy his livelihood?

Does that sound logical?

More importantly, it wasn’t him who disallowed it. It was the linesman.

 

[blueinsa]

I genuinely don’t know what you’re talking about.

The club commissioned an investigation into our games and the officiating we were receiving and we presented the evidence to the PL and PiGMOL.

We had proof that a number of them were intentionally shafting us and the Mason suddenly no longer got any of our games that season and other figures suddenly departed the scene.

All swept under the carpet in the same way Halseys comments about being asked to lie in his post match reports was last year.

But obviously we don't, as previous "evidence" hasn't changed a fucking thing.

 

[urban genie]

we have a terrible standard of refereeing unfortunately their bosses POGMOL are the last generation of terrible refs

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Sorry to be a pedant. But it was, as the ref he has the final say in all matters.

That’s not proof, that’s hearsay surely.

 

[Proy]

I genuinely don’t know what you’re talking about.

Whilst I admire your sitting on the fence approach, generally speaking, and whilst corruption is always difficult to prove, I just can't shake the feeling that parts of what we are seeing currently are very deliberate. There is too much money in this league and with it's global connections, there is always risk of certain 'things' occurring.

 

[franksinatra]

More importantly, it wasn’t him who disallowed it. It was the linesman.

I did highlight this earlier but apparently him speaking to the linesmen indicated he was blatantly disallowing a goal he knew should stand.

 

[The blue phantom]

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.

Or come on. If your saying the press know you don't think the likes of Winter, Samuel, Holt would blow it all wide open to get the scoop of the century?

 

[blueinsa]

Sorry to be a pedant. But it was, as the ref he has the final say in all matters.

Correct.

Mason even went over which very rarely happens even for a disallowed offside goal because he knew there was fuck all wrong with it.

As ref he can overrule it and give the goal but he didn't want to.

Disgraceful decision at best.

 

[Ric]

True, but I don’t think he would’ve known either way so he was always going to take his linesman’s word for it. You can only overrule him if you’re certain he was wrong, and I doubt Mason would’ve known that.
