Doesn’t matter what you say Mate. Minds were made up. The truth is if it wasn’t him and the coverage it got hadn’t been there, but the ref in place had the same standard of game, there wouldn’t be anything said other than that he had a good game, the Sané incident aside.So you decided to totally ignore that I specifically talked about just that sequence?
Ok.
I haven't got my head up my arse and I am not tying to have it both ways. City did not give him the chance to fuck us over. We should have controlled it better against Chelsea but we allowed him to wind us up with his cheating. We then had the Wigan farce where an over the top challenge (a straight red) on Aguero went unpunished only to be followed by the most stupid/bent/ decision I have ever seen, (name another time a ref has pulled out a yellow and then a red.
On Sunday we kept the ball so well he would have had to make the most obvious wrong decision against us and be shown to the world that he is a cheat or he became a spectator. He had two major decisions to make, he made neither. I am not counting the penalty he gave that was nailed on, he should have given a penalty for the Sane foul, he didn't and he should have given it for the Aguero foul, he didn't. My point is, he wasn't going to give either. My point is it has suddenly become a Taylor love in on here. Apart from the 2 decisons mentioned above he didn't make any bad calls but that is down to us not giving him a chance to do it.
Told you! ;)Can I suggest that you ignore that headline and read what he actually said in his interview - no way could his comments have been interpreted as putting Taylor under pressure. To paraphrase he said "The ref will not want to make mistakes"
Imagine if he ruled the goal out and gave a penalty, your head would have exploded. You cannot predict what he was/wasn't going to do. If you want to argue a case then argue over what he actually carried out. Someone said the Sane one continued in the area but I am yet to see it again, all I know from that was initially it was outside the box, regardless it was a foul which he didn't give. He could have very easily booked Fernanindho in that game without complaint, nothing to do with cynical fouls or agendas but he done well not to be carded as many have said on here. He didn't give them everything and we managed to win quite a few free kicks. He done his job well and that's all that needs to be said. If you want to discuss Wigan and Chelsea then fill your boots. No one would argue with you, them games he refereed very poorly, Sunday he didn't.
I can only say what I see, some on here, possibly you, said he was putting his whistle to his mouth when he decided to allow play on. He did not do anything of the sort. He was not going to give that penalty so I do not need to predict anything. I don't know why you cannot get your head round the fact that other teams would not have scored that goal and therefore there would have been no advantage. He did not 'play on' he ignored the offence, there is a difference.
In many respects I am not even complaing about what he did or did not do, I was commenting on the City love in for Raggy Taylor that is unfolding on here. He had 3 penalty decisions to make. He only gave one.
I am suprised you haven't watched highlights of the match yet, when you do, even Tyler and Ratboy say it was a penalty, except for the coomet that 'as he wasn't going to get onto Silvas pass it wasn't given' !!
Taylor did not have a good game, he had very little to do because we were that good but what he had to do, the big decisions, well 2 out of 3 he got wrong.
A n absolutely perfect riposte to the poster who thinks the incident was an example of 'perfectly good refereeing ".Some posters on here have said that when Aguero was fouled Raggy Taylor put the whistle to his lips and was going to blow for a penalty but he decidied to allow the advantage and play on. I have just watched it again. At no time does he put anything near his mouth until AFTER the ball has hit the net. He was NOT going to give the penalty. Fortunately we have professional players who do not stop to appeal, we play on. We did and we stopped Raggy Taylor from robbing us.

No he didn't ref the game very well.i,m sorry but thats just not true.When a professional footballer decides to smash a forearm accross the face of an opposing player,in the penalty area,that should mean only two things; red card and a penalty.But you can’t have it both ways, many said we should be too good for him to influence the game and we was. A lot of people said it wouldn’t matter because he’d change the game. He didn’t and we was too good. It’s not a love in it’s called getting your head out of your arse. This thread was 70 plus pages of us all suggesting he’d kill the game for us, some even saying they might not even go to the game! It’s only fair to then say when he actually reffed the game very well.
Had he only sunk to 'poorly' level we might have seen Luiz red carded before Sergio decided to take the LotG into his own hands and we might have got a draw, and as for the Wigan match we'd still have been in the next round. He wasn't just poor, he was excruciatingly and execrably abysmal. I've said it before, and I will no doubt have to say it another ten times at least - after the CFC game he should have been red carded himself with a lifetime ban from whistling down Market Street.

Ask Leroy Sane if he thought taylor reffed the game very well..
And also,as a City fan yourself,imagine the score was 0-0 and the game was a title decider, and the utd fan ref ignored that incident.would you still come on here saying how well he did?That incident was crying out for decisive action...just like taylor showed at Wigan in the cup,for a tackle which was a borderline yellow (Delph) yet he sent our player off!!! Not to mention the assault on Sergio in the penalty area earlier in the game,completely ignored by the ref.can u see a pattern developing here?
How much do you actually know about taylors reffereeing performances these past few years Tom? Because i can guarantee if you,d studied this cheat during games as much as i have you would see ,in context,exactly what the man is up to.
Leicester City v man utd ,the season when The Fortunate Foxes when reigning champions....taylor walks out at the start of the match proud as punch....and who wouldnt be after being selected by pigmol to control such a show peice event? A utd player does a dreadful challenge on an oppenent and he lets it go; a leicester player fouls a utd player...and Taylor comes bombing over from about 30 yards ,blowing his whistle,couldnt wait to get his book out.
It really is time this particular gig was stopped.its not in the spirit of the beautiful game,its really not.
