The player should put their side across at the appeal surely and not to the sky cameras 10 minutes after the game

Yeah and in which they did both. If we are claiming the panel is corrupt and got him off because he is a rag, does it matter if he spoke after the game?

When only the wrongs that affect them are righted then yes it will offend people as it will be deemed unfair, will the pl right the wrong where they gave them 40 times more leeway than any other club with their financial dealings, will they right the wrong where the var lines were drawn incorrectly in their fa cup semi against coventry, will they retrospectively right the wrong where a yellow was given to martinez for a two footed out of control tackle, i would not be offended by them righting this wrong if they showed the same sense of fairness in righting the wrongs when it doesnt benefit them.

We got the softest penalty in the world at old trafford last year, at 0-0. The same at Stamford Bridge. Whilst I don't disagree with some of your claims, all it shows though is a biased and bitter viewpoint towards them, where many would agree. That tribalism clouds logic and judgements. You feel they have been treated favorably, the fans of that shite would argue they had to play a second half with ten men and their captain sent off over something a panel have decided shouldn't have happened. So even if you think overturning it is corrupt or biased, they have still been punished for something wrongly in that match. I find it funnier he didn't deserve to be sent off.

he was rugby tackled in the penalty area mate, not sure why that was soft and you may call me biased and bitter which is your opinion but is any of what i said untrue, everything i have said is backed up in fact and it is you who is muddying the waters here, if you believe he was cleared fairly that is absolutely fine but then fairness should be applicable across the board.

You've gone off way too far here.
I never said the panel was corrupt.
I was merely stating that there is a time and a place for the penalised player to put his side across, and not in front of a watching audience in what looked a pre arranged interview with MUTV, er forgive me Sly Sports
 
Remember we lost the appeal on the ludicrous sending off in 2012 FA cup tie against the Rags when Rooney decided he was refereeing the match and got Vinny sent off. One of the worse decisions I can ever remember yet no media out cry. Hated the granny stagger ever since cost us our FA cup place, the rags reward a losing trip to Annfield.

I am referring to ones off the top of my head. I am sure a little research will show other teams having cards overturned. Your logic is two people got it wrong at the weekend, my argument would be the ref and VAR didn't see enough to intervene but I can guarantee, that if the ref gave the red card, then VAR told him it is only a yellow and overturned it mid match, you and everybody else on here would be crying foul play and how they are cheating to keep it 11-11 and their captain and best player staying on the pitch. Ultimately it's a lose lose then, as the panel have rightly overturned it and foul play is cried more. Bruno asked to speak to Sky apparently. You are now using guess work to say they wouldn't allow anybody else to do it. You are also ignoring that only last month Rice was allowed to talk about his red card, again a situation where a player feels aggrieved and wanted to get their point across.

Simply put, this isn't a united thing. It is actually an example of them righting a wrong. That shouldn't offend anybody.
