Bony will step up and shine

That may well rebound on you.

Nicked of @Mancbastard look at the top of the @fa Twitter page !!

How dare they have the winners of the FA Charity shield as their banner? What next? The winners of the FA Cup? Makes me sick

He was actually heavily involved in our best play. But basing anything on 1 game is dumb as fook. He has scored 7.

His mere presence on the pitch gives others more room. Any team would miss Aguero

It's a grown up forum.

We adults are free to use the word fuck.

And he has scored 6.

The process is definitely bent and way too reliant on what the media makes a stink about. I wouldn't use Costa as a counter example, however. He is constantly doing bannable things and gets away with a few of them but he's also been drawn and quartered similarly via media witch hunt. He's a despicable player so I find it hard to care when this happens but I'm not sure his treatment is a point in favor of Sergio.

As many have said, Sergio opened up this opportunity by getting an elbow up. That it pretty much didn't connect and the ref didn't hit him on the spot for trying is sort of incidental and lucky for us, or would have been if the FA weren't the shithouses they are.

I'm not going to try and justify his actions by saying so and so player does it week in week out. He was stupid and got caught, hopefully won't do it again once Pep has kicked his arse around the training ground. Like others have said though, we can and will cope without him in the derby, that I have every confidence in.

 

[CitizenTID]

I'd actually bet my house, that he IS the ref for the derby.

Well he's dubbed the higher standard of ref now after reffing the CL final and Euros final wasn't it? Or important European matches anyway. Fuck knows why, he let Tottenham have 3 offside goals in one game against us last season and another in the return fixture.

I don't have any issue with your view on Mariner, but if Kun hadn't done it, we wouldn't be having this discussion. Kun is solely to blame and I cannot see how anyone can defend him

IM NOT DEFENDING HIM

but the thread would exist in a very different form

the ref acts on what he saw - (he is lying when he said he didn't see it)....either gives a red or a yellow doing the match and our reaction is either he is fucking stupid to do it or he got away with one there.

or what actually happened - the ref acted on what he saw - he does nothing......then says to the FA -at the time i saw the incident but i didn't think it warranted a red/yellow card/any action but i admit i got it wrong. - we again say how lucky Kun is as the FA cant overturn a decision made in the match

the highlighted bit is where the ref is NOT taking responsibility which enables the FA to then use the loophole that they are doing.......this to me is cheating as it leaves it very debatable regarding the members who decide this and their fairness in dealing with these things

 

[aguero93:20]

Along with his linesman. They were terrible all game......Matsuoka, whose cross led to their goal, should have been sent off for persistent fouls. I think he was the one who did Stones

Did Stones, fouled Sterling countless times and if I'm correct, the booking was for something unrelated. However I can understand him not walking if Marriner was 2 yards or further away at the time.

 

[Blue Smarties]

If it's so fair and above board why is it that City players are the ones who get charged by the FA Disciplinary Committee? It may have happened, but I can not recall it, that a Utd player got an FA retrospective charge.

The process is bent. Aguero's challenge was far from the worst in the world seeing as he didn't touch Reid and it was Reid who clattered into him.

Fellini last season missed West Ham.
