City charged by FA for failing to control players against Spurs

[flook]

Perhaps we should use our "vast team of lawyers" to counter-sue PiGMOL for failing to appoint a competent referee

You can afford EL2 !ffs.

In the corner and with the FOC discount.

I am not sure he will be ref at any game at the Etihad anytime soon but when he does I am sure we will remind him we have not forgot!

Anyone remember that referee at Leicester away under Pearce, did the exact same thing as Hooper, but that one nearly got us relegated!

I remember Muzzy Izzet handling the ball and then gaining a penalty which David James saved. That was in a year we nearly went down

They went mad and i don't blame them but thems the rules

Fuck em and their law(s).

Not surprised to be honest

Why would Hooper be faced charges, when only doing as he was instructed by the red clubs in his ring piece ?

Changed for accuracy.

I'll put my helmet on and get low in the trenches.

I've no problem with City being charged. The decision was awful and whilst I understand the player's frustrations, I don't think you can approve of players harassing officials like that

I've copied this picture from the post match thread. Forget the wording. Is this the sort of example players, as idols and heroes, should be giving to young players? There is a massive problem in youth football with pushy parents, and players, giving dogs abuse, and physical assaults, to officials week in week out. How can the FA ever stop this if they don't punish clubs when they step over the line?

It’s shit but not a shock

I’m just surprised none of the players have been charged rather than just the club.. which would have damaged us much much more
