I don't understand how the person that wrote that still has a job, it's not even close to being news.

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson insists lucky breaks even themselves out over the course of a season.

Manchester City's football development executive Patrick Vieira suggested that United, along with most major clubs in Spain and Italy, benefited from favourable decisions on home soil - although the Frenchman later claimed his comments were taken out of context.

The argument has been reignited following referee Michael Oliver's failure to award Fulham a last-minute penalty at Old Trafford on Monday for Michael Carrick's clumsy challenge on Danny Murphy.

Ferguson accepts the Red Devils were lucky with that one as they went on to win 1-0 and open up a three-point lead over City at the top of the table.


Remote Record However, he can cite plenty of other instances where his team were wronged and feels the decisions even themselves out over the campaign.

"From the referee's position, I can see why he didn't give a penalty when Danny Murphy was brought down," said Ferguson.

"The ball moved to the angle as Michael Carrick challenged him. From that position, it wasn't clear.

"It was a good claim but City could have had a penalty against them at Stoke for a foul by Gareth Barry.


"Every club gets breaks here and there, you get good ones and bad ones.

"It evens itself out over the season, that will never change."

Ferguson used United's home game against Newcastle in November as an example of a major decision affecting his team, when Rio Ferdinand conceded a penalty for a perfectly fair challenge on Hatem Ben Arfa.

"Every club gets breaks here and there, you get good ones and bad ones. It evens itself out over the season, that will never change"


He also has not forgotten how Mario Balotelli escaped a red card for stamping on Scott Parker during Manchester City's win over Tottenham at the Etihad Stadium in January, then scored the match-winning penalty in injury-time.

"We had a terrible decision earlier this season when Newcastle got a penalty and Tottenham could claim the same when Mario Balotelli wasn't sent off and ended up scoring the winning goal," added Ferguson.

"You could go through millions of things like that.

"Maybe smaller clubs feel that (decisions go against them when they play big clubs) but someone said some years ago that we get lots of penalties. It is only averaging out at three a year.

"You can't say that is a lot when you are attacking teams all the time.

I see he couldn't resist a 'small club' dig. Wanker

If you cared to read through his City match reports this season when we have on the game he spent much of reports talking about the then absent Carlos Tevez rather than giving City the credit the club deserves. Tevez was irrelevant to the games concerned but Taylor attempted to put a negative angle on it. You take your pick from the Guardian site.

I would think I have read pretty much every City match report in The Guardian for the last 20 years.

To consider someone as bias, they would surely have to regularly negative about City. That, purely and simply, is not the case with Daniel Taylor.

I suggest you look at the Daniel Taylor penned articles about Tevez, you will clearly see that he was not working against the club, but actually with them.

I can understand people pointing the finger at the likes of Count Paul Smith, Rob Beasley and Shaun Custis but Daniel Taylor?

Taylor, has in my opinion (and others agree) been very negative about City over a period of time with more subtlety than others at times. You aren't obliged to agree but it is my view that he is biased. That's my view and why I'd rather read Sam Wallace in the Indy.

Recently Taylor may have improved if what you say is true (which side is his bread buttered), but I don't trust his reports or his judgement, so I no longer go out of my way to read him (get to read his match reports on monday sometimes).

So, given the amount of rags apparently writing for the press are we still of the opinion 'there is no anti-City agenda in the media'?

 

[somapop]

MEN agenda? Mocking ex City players?

Today's edition:

I note that in his response at his latest press conference, Fergusson had to go back to Newcastle (at Home) in MID NOVEMBER 2011 to the last time United had a bum penalty decision against them.

by his very own lips...
CASE PROVEN
