I'm sure it was Jeff Winter reffing a City game when Eyal Berkovic gave him a gesture, looking like "Biggles" as if to say get your eyes checked. I think Jeff Winter took it good heartedly and laughed.

What's the story behind the photo? Is that William Roache aka Ken Barlow at the back?

He who laughs last.

I remember that. I think Stuart Hall from " It's a knock out " did some commentary too.

That was brilliant, showed them due respect.

Who is that in the photo?

Your post just reminded me of a video I saw a long time ago. An Eagle was feasting on a carcass. Some crows arrived to join the feast and tried to intimidate the Eagle, one or two even snapped at the Eagle. The Eagle held it's head high and didn't lower itself to the level of the crows. The...

The best thing is, even he admitted he" shinned" it and said something along the lines of 99 times out of a hundred it would have been out of the stadium. Of course against City it went straight in the back of the net. Much like the Peter Crouch " worldy" I'm sure I saw him try to recreate that...

This is the problem with England. Players constantly picked because of their club rather than on merit.

I think City even recommended Matt Busby to them as a manager? In the same way as helping them in the early days of Manchester Central, loaning them players and a stadium, it was all thrown back in City's face. We did get Terry Cook though, who played a big part in City's promotion from the...

The difference is when City have a lack of luck or a bad game, as can happen to any team, City often get stiched up. We have had some decisions in our favour but not as a given. When LiVARpool have a similar game, which has happened regularly in the last few months, they always get bailed out...

Yep! It happened when LiVARpool played Leicester in the Caraboa cup, a leg breaker in the beginning, no sending off. Of course against Arsenal, Arsenal had a player sent off. Then again in the final that they were helped into by the officials, a LiVARpool player not sent off and a perfectly...

That's what I was thinking earlier when there was a discussion about how the opposition consistently miss opportunities against LiVARpool. Some of their supporters seem to think it's because they have the world's best goalkeeper. It must affect a player's chances though when they are fully...

What happened to "Clear and obvious"? Although depending on which team it benefits, certain " clear and obvious " incidents are ignored. It's almost as though they make up the rules as they go along with the commentators and the media only too happy to tag along.

This is what I was thinking. Some journalist even predicted what happened last season.

I remember a journalist predicted the " fall from grace" last season for LiVARpool maybe even before the season kicked off. It would be great to find that article again.

This success was achieved with investment decades ago and then when Chelsea and City came along to challenge F.F.P was drawn up to put the brakes on the competition, the rest was left up to the officials. " Earned not Bought " yet another myth to go along with City having no support. They talk...

Exactly, a helping hand every time. It must give tremendous confidence knowing they are immune to being sent off. Then those players are available for the following games. Need a goal, get to the box and fall over, simple. If the opposition score, disallowed. Their " history " will show a...

Exactly. All this talk of a wonderful team and manager. It's difficult to tell when they have their own rule book.

It's only the carefully edited version of" history " they seem interested in. Along with the other half of the "history twins" the only thing that matters is the end product. The end justifies the means. The last trophy United won was done in similar fashion to Liverpool's last Cup win against...
