Darke does not answer about the second "prior action".
An old politicians trick of moving the conversation from penalty claims to poor old Jimenez's first booking.
City need a bright, younger, articulate pundit to give the club a fair analysis. Step forward Nedum...

 

[Chris in London]

I see the Abu Dhabi grand prix is now being shown in all its glory and yet not one peep out of any oh so keen and morally right journalist.
Mind you the dips and rags aren't competing in it so nothing to see, move along now, thank you.

Funny how sports washing is only a thing if it’s football

you’d think ‘sports’ washing was, you know, something to do with sport

Did he pipe up about the rags pen or Villas non pen?

 

[SilvaisSkyBlue]

Doesn't bother to mention the ones we should've had.

Good old Jake Humphrey, the Norwich fan who was oh so very proud that liverpool won the title ‘on his watch’.

Is it any surprise with the various non-penalties and penalties given yesterday they all choose the City one to be offended against, it’s almost like it is an organised agenda to put our club down at every opportunity.

Of course not.

 

[Octavian]

Of course not.

He’s a biased ****

 

[Bonzo Nododo]

There was a pen given a few years back for either Spurs or Chelsea.
A player crossed from the left towards the South Stand goal. It hit Raz I think, in the middle of the back and was right on the edge of the area but a pen was given straightaway.
The reason my memory is hazy is partially because the media never mentioned such an obvious error.

Haha remember that, he was appalling that night, openly willing us to lose

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

it appears pundits opinions on penalties generally are given as a popularity contest , if they criticise Salad for instigating his penalty by clearly moving his left leg in front of MIngs it wouldnt be popular , then Fakrronaldo's double flip because a defender rested his hand on his shoulder , and also Ings clearly being brought down by Allison bit its Ok because he got the ball first.
Then omit any discussion on the first blatant hand ball by the Villa defender and the tug od Sterlings shoulder in the second half which impeded him far more than Fakeronaldo's double sommersualt.
The above are the facts as i see it , the Dippers would have lost 0-1 but we still would have won our game if the referee and VAR did their jobs
But why get facts get in the way the media need the clicks from the 'istree club not from a relatively tiny fan base like ours , there is no integrity in football punditry they follow their own and their paymasters bias.

He appears to think you can’t tweet about more than one thing at a time

 

[Bonzo Nododo]

Spurs.

Thanks

Old people shouldn't use Twitter. They don't get it. Trust me, I know.

Twattenburg.

 

[CityDean]

Is it me or was the Salah pen not a pen and the reaction in the media very different

Salah is the biggest diver in the league but because he plays for the Dippers it never gets attention. That was more of a debatable pen than ours. Can't stand him or arrogant Klopp, can't wait until May when we are lifting trophies and they win fuck all.

 

[Bald fraud]

Not daft these pundits and journo’s they know if they kick up enough of a stink our next pen will most likely be turned down by the gutless bent officials

 

[Bonzo Nododo]

Twattenburg.

Yes. I remembered that twats name with certainty.
I think l was getting mistaken because where the Spurs player crossed from was approximately the same position as another piss poor decision.
When Luiz took Kun completely out yet stayed on the field.

 

[M12Blue]

First pen this season, Christ could be next season before the next comes. Hope we don’t waste time practising them

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

He’s a biased ****

If Darke was professional he would not be getting involved in spats on Twitter about penalty claims or trying to mock football fans. He is just another broacaster who is incapable of being impartial becuase of his own prejudice. He appears to be too stupid to realise that his antics on Twitter are damaging his own career.
