The worst thing about farcical officiating

i think i saw todays decision was made by ref because its a subjective decision so went with onfield decision. when its subjective like that i think they should have been made to go to screen and look at different angles like goalie for example because didnt the lines man put flag up so he thought it was off.

yep - don’t like VAR but isn’t this exactly what VAR is for? madness
 
Look we know it should have been disallowed they know it should have been disallowed,they got the result and the outcome they wanted remember when pep said we have to do it all by ourselves,not that he’s looking a helping hand but that’s what he was hinting at other teams are getting a helping hand create a false title race involving what 2 no 3 no 4 heck why not 6 or 7 teams makes it for dramatic tv viewing doesn’t it ..
 
If he backs the decision or even says they got it wrong, the fix is already in, it makes no difference, Atwell and Oliver will still be reffing a games come the weekend
That's the concern for me, its being done in plain site and no one is calling it out, that means only one thing for me

The game in its current guise is bent and its here to stay, so we fans will either put up with it or bin it off

does anyone think the EPL give a shite about us City fans or any other fans for that matter?
Do they hell
They could care less. It's not match fixing per se. What it is though is if given the chance to make or not make a call that plays to an established narrative then that's what they'll do, period. They "wanted" ManUre to equalize and short of the ref picking up the ball and throwing it into our net the first chance they got to get what they wanted they threw the rulebook out the window. If we score that goal at 1 nil us that goal NEVER stands. And no one can convince me otherwise.
 
Rat Boy went ballistic and the ref caved. The AR actually looked like he was begging for forgiveness as they were surrounding him. It was absolutely shocking to witness.
Posted the exact same thing before, AR shit himself and thought he'd got it wrong straight away

Quite strange to watch it really, he shit himself and clearly didn't remain strong when explaining to the referee
 
ive always said mic the refs up like they do in other sports where they use VAR so you can hear the actual reasoning.

this post sums it up perfectly

this wasn’t subjective imo, it was clear as day offside and affecting play.

hard to swallow but not surprising in the slightest. i’d be embarrassed if i was a united fan (even more so than usual) hardly the slaughtering they’re claiming when they needed a wrong decision from the ref to walk away with anything from that game.

You are right but it is hard to take against them cunts….hopefully it will galvanise us because there were signs today we are getting back to our level
 
Its not just city , other teams seem to get very suspect decisons

Love city but im done with it ....

Cancelled sky and bt after that today ... will check the scores but wont watch anymore

Sad sad day

Ctid
Get IPTV mate, trust me your football life will be invigorated with knowledge that you’re not paying into these cunts pockets.
 
Sweep, sweep, sweep under the carpet. Imagine if this had happened against LiVARpool?! How many petitions would the victims have up and running by now?! I know of course it would never happen to them!

i agree with it all, it is without a doubt hard understand. im just laughing at united fans now that ive calmed down (was fuming earlier and had a drink now). they constantly say we dont matter and are irrelevent yet they are out here celebrating like theyve won the world cup while still 3rd.
 
We got beat and yes it was a bad decision but let’s face it we played average at best and didn’t deserve to win either . These decisions happen and it went against us but last season we got lucky with the Rodri handball at Everton so it is what it is . Atm our form and lack of it is all on pep with his stupid fucking tinkering trying to be a genius and it’s costing us big time . Let’s get the players playing in there best positions and give players like grealish foden kdb freedom to express themselves Instead if wanting to keep them in shackles .
Ederson
Walker / lewis stones Dias cancelo
Silva Rodri kdb / grealish
Mahrez haaland foden .
And we stick with it even if we are not at it because the team will come back to form . Tine to earn your contract pep .
I think Pep has already earned his contract...
 
Usually I believe the poor decisions have been down to ineptitude but today actually felt like cheating. Not sure that's it's part of anything wider etc but it actually felt ridiculous
 
You're not even close to being alone. I have always disliked losing, a great deal, lol. But right now I'm feeling different. It's hard to explain. Of course I feel disappointed that we lost, but I'm also feeling sad in a melancholy type of way. A bit depressed. Sad that a sporting event at supposedly the highest level in the world can be shattered by such a complete disregard for fair play. It destroys the entire integrity of the game. How does the ref not take the time to go to the monitor and see that the goal can clearly not be allowed to stand. If there's no recourse against something that grotesquely wrong then what's the point? I could not believe what I was seeing.
Totally agree with you. City weren't particularly great today in truth. However, had the whole farce (that was their first goal) not happened and they just got the 2nd I would have been irritated at our crap defending, but would have felt a draw probably a fair enough result.
What was hard to take was the justification of saying Rashford was not interfering with play(WTF?) and the total disregard of the monitor at pitch side(?) Earlier I posted on another thread saying I wasn't in to all these conspiracy/agenda theories, however...after today, I'm not so sure?
There was no way in a million years that was ever going to be disallowed, not matter how obviously it should have been. It just looked such a very 'suspicious' decision.
The Premier League and their SKY/BT buddies quite clearly desperately want at least one of their 'chosen ones' at ,or near the top (and one of them is a fair way off, so it's the other one this season).
True, last season we had the benefit of the doubt with the Rodri 'handball' at Everton. It was a lot less dubious than today though, and ofcourse the penalty may not have been scored anyway.
After today I just wonder how many 'suspect' decisions the Rags will get if they are there or there abouts come April/May(especially if its between us and them).
Much though I don't like to question the officials intergretity it makes me (and obviously many others )extremely suspicious. It does take away a lot of the enjoyment out of the game. Like most, I've seen us play really shit many times and get battered by much better teams..but when you feel you have been cheated by supposedly 'neutral' officials it feels a bit different!!!
