And that's why they rely so much on yellow cards. No comeback, unless TV can fiddle the personnel and show that it was someone in Row Z who tackled the cheating, diving bastard and not Rico we screwed. Oh, that's a novelty for us, by the way, being screwed by a whistling wanker.

I saw Rico giving it verbals. The ref saw fit to book him for it. Fair enough

A few hours later I saw the rat aka Fernandez tell the referee to fuck off. Live on television and to his face. He then continued to abuse him.
Nothing was done.

Fuck off with your level playing field I'm sick of it.

How do you know Rico was cautioned for dissent, and not for a foul? The referee stopped the game and awarded a free kick to Palace to restart it. Normally players will be warned before being cautioned for dissent, and it didn't look like Rico passed any threshold for receiving a caution for dissent.

No, I thought the second caution was for the foul. Has there been any clarification on it yet? I dare say PGMOL will say it was for dissent anyway, in order to cover their backs.
 
Our players need to not have a go at the ref on the pitch, or look at them funny! Just commit exactly same foils our opposition don't get booked for ( only way to prove to everyone else that refs are baised) saying Pep and his staff can have a go!

His first yellow was after the referee gave a free kick against Ruben, obviously said something to the referee. Probably frustrated with the referee as he was pretty shit all the game. Second one it looked like a yellow in real time for a rash challenge but on closer inspection he got fouled, but var can’t get involved.

VAR could get involved and give City the penalty we deserved.

You can in a red shirt.

The rags were given a penalty AFTER the final whistle when some players were down the tunnel !!

The rules are plain stupid.

Red (the senior card, can be overturned) Yellow (the junior card, cant)

Simply illogical and should be addressed !!
 
On the first goal, CP had a player in an offside position. He actually makes a movement as the ball goes through to the scorer who is just onside. The fact that the first player needs to make a movement as it goes past him surely makes him interefering with play?

Have to agree , as that was my immediate thought.

The officials use the " not interfering with play" interpretation is a crock of shit imo.

And the use of VAR is supposed to make these incidents available for the referees and supporters to view, but when the tv angles distort that, it comes back to officials to supposedly correct them.

And whilst the referee could have been let down by VAR on that occasion, the remainder of his performance was pretty poor and slanted towards CP throughout imo.

Who knows what the rules are or how they changed/ didn't change after that ridiculous Fernandes/Rashford goal a couple of years back?

It used to be such a simple game.

And it can be again.

No you have mixed things up.
Rico's first booking was for dissent after kdb had allegedly fouled a player.
His second booking was for a so called foul.

My point is Lewis could be seen on tele talking to the ref. It was not clear, although he did not seem to swear, what he said but he was booked for dissent.
Fernandez clearly told the referee to fuck off. Everyone watching on tele saw it. He then continued his tirade at the ref.

I am asked to accept Lewis was booked for dissent and I do. I cannot accept that Fernandez doesn't get booked for telling the ref to fuck off. It's bias/favouritism

As always.

Its been going on for that vile,corrupt club for as long as i can remember.

Back into the late 50s, so in my case 67 years.

Corruption and bias in plain sight but the media wont raise a hair !!

That in itself wouldn’t be so bad if every player who gobbed off at the ref got booked. In fact if the rule was consistently applied there would probably be less of it.

As far as I remember of the incident Lewis was gobbing off because yet another foul on one of our players wasn’t called while we got penalised much more
