yep - always the same, city get seen to get a favourable decision (a couple of times a season) and there is outrage (including from the supposedly wronged team), and kept in the headline for days, e.g. a beeb article on their main sports page - with nearly 1k comments (no doubt all fairly moderated). When Liverpool and united get their one or two a game there is hardly anything said about it and is usually swept under the carpet within a couple of hours or so, notably the wronged team and their fans seem to accept it - e.g. those villa cunts, Forest the other week was a bit of an exception.

What ever happened to the Forest claim? Sorry if it's been adjudicated, but I haven't seen or heard anything about it.

Webb is increasingly digging a hole he will not be able to get out of. The level of intelligence for all those running PYGMOL and VAR is woefully low. They seem to base their decisions on bias and popularity and the difference between the two rugby codes and footballs VAR reviews is similar to the difference between primary school children and university graduates. The football lot are thick as pigshit when it comes to following the LOTG and it is confirmed when heard in the audio tapes. The football lot are an embarrassment to the game of football.

When it was introduced into Rugby league, it was similar to football & that it looked at every simple reason to not to give a try. The difference is that its evolved & like cricket its seen as a help to the officials & not used to protect a mate if they've made a mistake.

Well the rules are the rules as we keep getting told. You can't say, "These are the rules" and we follow them, then make a load of shit charges up and find we actually broke no rules, so say they aren't strong enough rules. It's a total fucking nonsense.

I hope if we are found to have broken no rules we then pursue all of these fuckers for damages.

As we are told constantly……

“If you sign up to the rules have to abide by them”

This is the shit were fighting against.

No mark you tube cunts making accusations which cunts like Harris stroke their dicks to.

I know its difficult to find a brain cell in dipperland, but

If you believe you're innocent which City do, why wouldn't you pay the best lawyers to prove you're innocent over paying a fine. Even if that fine is a penny, you're admitting guilt.

I’ll have to re-read but I thought it meant the threats of mutiny will be when we are found to be innocent, those who are constantly looking for self interest won’t be happy.

That might have been the mood I was in when I read it, I thought is that the first time I’d seen the angle they they have no evidence & without it, it’s a sham.

I imagine the article didn't properly reflect the issues put forward in the journal because it was poorly written. I will have a read of the journal later. That will probably make more sense.

I was startled by the fact that it mentioned the burden of proof is on the premier league as it should be with such serious allegations.

It mentioned that we felt the UEFA investigation was flawed & the only wrong doing was our failure to cooperate.

Honestly compared to the usual hit pieces I felt it was quite fair.

That's all VAR will be used for until there's transparency
