How many points will be needed to win the league? (74 GD)

[Blue Mist]

If only the police could have known about this possibly happening.

They knew there was going to be a protest but what do they do.
If there were loads of cops in riot gear outside the ground - a small peaceful protest and they get slagged for wasting money
Or
Loads of cops etc and some one robs your house, cops take 3 hours to attend so you slag them off.
Where do we get all these cops from? 4-5 years ago there were 8,000 of them in gmp, now there's 6,000. Spread that out over manchester, 4 shifts there's not that many around.

On another note, why can't their match be replayed tonight with added security? I've seen it done before, so why don't the PL order it now, or both teams forfeit the game?

We had to v AC Milan in 1979.

 

[richards30]

Wonder if this will be enforced or will David Gill manage to wriggle the rags out of it?!

It also happened more recently in the CL IIRC. This would screw both teams & give them 24 hours less to prepare for this week's matches.

Then a points deduction for next season should be applied to ManUre. No way should they be allowed to get away with this? It's obviously bent. There was a serious breach of security, but no mention of the security company being investigated or sacked.

How can 'supporters' gain such easy access into a ground where fans are already banned because of covid???? Not that I'd want to, but what are the chances of me showing up there today & gaining such easy access to Old Toilet.... Slim, no & fat fucking! Something is seriously wrong here & there needs to be some serious punishments handing down.

I will be surprised if this was even mentioned.
Looking at the scum fixtures the game cannot be played this season (unless its played today which is highly unlikely).
Premier League have a big decision to make, As I said yesterday if the rags go unpunished it's setting a really bad precedent.

And the results speak for themselves...and not just this Sunday! Plus, even if you get nicked for something, nothing happens to you half the time, once your lawyer has detailed what an upstanding citizen you are, what a difficult time you have been having and how you are under so much stress! Throw in a little remorse and the Judge comes down from the bench to give you a hug!
F’in joke!

As for the game; Forfeit. 3-0 Liverpool.

agreed mate!! Plus fans storming stadiums can’t be allowed at ANY level!

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Not having that and refuse to give credit to any so-called United insiders who supposedly facilitated it. This isn't Line Of Duty ffs.

It's simply that entrances are open, services and people going in and out on matchday and the stewards underestimated the feeling and respond accordingly.

Yesterday is very damaging for United, for the fans there, the wider fanbase, all the way up through the club. Having a game postponed because of your own fans is an embarrassment.

Do the rags do embarrassment ?

They love being the centre of attention as is their right as " the greatest team in the world ".

I know the place looks like an unfinished outdoor bog, but surely even the Rags can afford doors which are more secure than one fitted to a B&Q shed? :-|

Fitting this match in will be fun.

• May 6 - Roma (a) Scum
• May 8 - Saints (h) Bus Wreckers
• May 9 - Villa (a) Scum
• May 12 -Leicester (h) Scum
• May 16 - West Brom (a) Bus Wreckers
• May 19 - Fulham (h) Scum & Burnley (a) Bus Wreckers
• May 23 - Wolves (a) Scum & C. Palace (h) Bus Wreckers

Looks like it will be May 14th or 21st as it can not be after the season has finished and the Scum have the Europa final on the 26th May.

I am sure those morons yesterday had their players health in mind when they were commiting those criminal acts.

Don’t get why Liverpool should benefit from this. I would be well pissed if I was a top 4 contender and Liverpool get 3 points gifted to them. I would play the game and punish the Rags separately - either this season or next

Fuckin hell. What kind of shit fuckin door to a major building is that??? I wish my local bank branch had a similar one! :-|

We all knew what was going to happen the day before so unless they are completely useless then the police must have also known.

How difficult would it have been to ensure there was no invasion of the stadium?

Did they know that these fans were intending a break in and to cause havoc throwing things at the police causing the game to be postponed and police to be injured? I don’t read social media- if this was being discussed on there as their objective then the police need to share some blame for being ill prepared.
Also are the Rags responsible for the security of their own stadium or is that the police?

They were openly bragging that they were going to get the game postponed.

Yes Zebra pants man will look like this when he goes to court.

"Sky correspondent Frazer Maude said at no point in the afternoon had there been "any sign" of the players leaving their hotel.

And he added that when the postponement announcement came, there was "a huge cheer" from supporters.

He added: "Many of the fans wanted a postponement - they wanted to get their message across."

Postponement of 'The biggest match in English football' was their intention, & this is EXACTLY what they got! This wasn't about the ESL. This wasn't about the Glazers. This was all about stopping the possibility of losing to the Dippers at Old Toilet & handing the title to City.

It was too much to bear for those toothless, barefooth, Old Toilet knuckle-draggers. They just couldn't take that double-whammy in one day. Regardless of the consequences, it was too unthinkable to lose to the Dippers & hand us the title in one action on the same day.

I usually get harrassed by Rags at any City misfortune, but as of yet I've heard fuck all from any of them, aside from a couple I've bumped into who seem more than happy that a potential title win for City has been delayed, & that we've got an in-form Chelsea to overcome next weekend, which may put a spanner in our spokes. No mention of the ESL or the Glazers until I mentioned it, & then it was all about the Glazers but in a totally unconcerned fashion.

On another note, why can't their match be replayed tonight with added security? I've seen it done before, so why don't the PL order it now, or both teams forfeit the game?

We played Munchengladbach the day after when it was rained off
Ac milan the day after ,after fog!

get it played

Precedent with Middlesbrough was that the game was replayed but they were deducted 3 points, which would be much better than a forfeit, as the consequences for the rest of the PL are huge.
