Personally, I'm deeply embarrassed about evil cheating City being top of the league, in the Champions League quarters, FA Cup quarters and having won the League Cup and Community Shield already.

I want to be a Liverpool fan. Out of the League Cup that the evils won, out of the FA Cup, not first in the league. Or a United fan, fighting for fourth. And out of the FA Cup. And League Cup.

Being a City fan is awful. Cheating two goals today, winning trophies, challenging on all fronts.

Can you feel my pain?

You obviously are in serious need of a nice relaxing break. A weekend at Wembley should cure it.

Do you think? I'm not so sure. I've done that before and it resulted in a dreadful hangover due to what others told me was "success" and "get the fuck in, we've won it again".

Do I really want that once more?

I'm willing to volunteer supping your beer for you if that helps.

Never a penalty in a million years. We got lucky.

Well tbh I haven’t a clue what is any more.

I used to know the rules, fouls, handball offside I could explain it all but now it’s a Fcking lottery reminds me of when I watch rugby.

The thing I do say is whatever the decision, the pundits contradict to say we got lucky or it defo is so I’m sticking with it’s a foul in the box as he took the player as well as the ball & foul in the box is a penalty.

Where's the ball? Rewind a couple of frames. On side, Pige. Besides, the defender pushes Serge, blatant penalty?

I watched an Irish stream against Schalke & they showed an angle st half time & said it should have been disallowed & VAR got it wrong & not for one more ent considering what the line is & if they got it right.

This is ...the worrying thing about Football.
Those of us ,who loved the game ,grew up ..learning the rules.Now.? Thete is "no point"(norway-eurovision song contest)
Uefa/pigmol etc just make it up on the hoof.
Gud thing we're a terribly decent side nowadays...not relying on borderline shouts...Centurians..."Play to win"(H17) ; )

The media bias in full swing.

What we did last night was proper newsworthy...fuck them, fuck them all.

I saw that too, both hands on his back pushing him down as he dived to head it, no mention anywhere. I thought the benefit of the doubt was supposed to be given to the attacker anyway to create more goals? Loving all the crying on social media, not from Swansea fan's of course but from Dippers and rags mainly. Fantastic fight back from 0-2 down you could imagine the headlines if it would have been one of those teams. Pray to God Fulham win today with a controversial penalty, an offside goal and VVD sent off for a professional foul, Mane for one of his snide elbows spotted for once and Salah for two dives.
 
What about the BBC:
  • "Aguero wins it for Man City with 'offside' goal".
That sort of thing did not bother them when they awarded Mkhitaryan with goal of the month when he was at least a yard offside.

As the supposed top broadcaster in the UK they have got completely to pot, and are an utter disgrace.

Proves my point, the camera angle is at least 10m behind play, so we need straight lines, and the swansea player 2 behind could be playing him on, its not certain he's not ahead of the player next to Sergio, also its not certain that is the moment the ball is played either.

I'm not saying yes or no, but there is doubt, and frankly I couldn't give a fuck anyway.

The straight line is on the pitch where the grass is cut. His leg is ahead of that line and nothing in anyone else is.
