Looked absolutely dogshit today but once again the officials to the rescue. Totally bent.

Yes, I used to think it was maybe us being a little bitter years ago but now we have no reason to. Absolute farce, especially when you see cards flying around for next to nothing.
 
They are on Sky again next week FFS!.

There they are with so called supporters claiming they got their glory days via "hard work, while City got a sugar daddy", and they simply had/have Sly Sports showing them on TV every week!. That makes billions!.
 
In the pub they were like "Three points at least, see you next week!"..... All while wearing their Adidas chav crap with the name of a scammers app plastered all over their shirts.

Yeah, hard work negotiating the amount they're going to pay in back-handers. Two or three times a season you can expect a lucky decision to go your way but not every fucking week. Why isn't THIS being investigated?
 
Rag mate in the group chat just responded to us blues saying ‘at least I can be critical of my own team’ based on tonight’s performance.

My response:

“Obviously I’d see more faults at City but we’re 100 points, domestic treble winners, 3 time champs in a row, treble winners etc so it’s harder to find major issues for me to be too critical about.”
 
Want to play out from the back. Spend a fortune on a keeper to do it, then tell him to hoof it up all game. Want to play possession football, but can't keep possession at the end of the game and resort to just clogging it up to runners who then lose it immediately. Lucky as fuck today. Fernandes and Mount were invisible. Casimiro as a lone DM is about as effective as a lollipop lady holding a stop sign. They've got no-one in midfield who can just control the game and keep it ticking over. They're all either flair players who are constantly losing the ball or thugs with a limited passing range.

Have they ever been on the wrong side of a major VAR decision?

They may have but I can’t off the top of my head think of any.

I can think of many that have gone for them.

Exactly. There are loads of decisions where you can see it being given both ways. But for them, they're only ever given one way. I said the last time we played them and they got that bullshit penalty for a handball that Jack knew nothing about that we've literally never had a vague dodgy decision against them, yet I could name about a dozen just off the top of my head for them.
 
I really think I'm going to have to take a step back from football this coming season... As much as I enjoy the fantastic football and subsequent success that City achieve I just can't face another 9 months of seeing these jammy twats getting comprehensively outplayed WEEK IN WEEK OUT yet scraping the narrowest of undeserved wins thanks to a combination of opposition strikers constantly shitting themselves in front of goal and corrupt officiating.

There's no way they can play with just one defensive midfielder in Casemiro.

The front 5 just don't track back and they got completely overrun in midfield.

Better teams will absolutely annihilate them

They'll play Fred against better teams, presumably. Although hopefully not. I could do with a laugh.
