Ref Watch City Games - 2023/24

Bacause we havn't got a Bruno Fernandes who will scream the house down.Think Rodri summed it up on motd - on so many var issues, the ref kept saying to us continue and play on.
The handball at the end helps the player control and clear it. No idea how that under review is not given.
Just look at cabbage kid last week for the rags when he got booked, he looked at every camera in the ground to protest his innocence even though he had committed a foul.
It's a dirty sport, on and off the field but we seem to think our purity will get justice.
It won't

Should see the state of the pen Forest didn't get, how VAR looked at it and said no is pathetic.

The final moment was never a penalty IMO... The Sterling incident on Walker was a FAR bigger shout for me.

That’s given at Anfield, OT and the Emirates. He virtually caught the ball then knocked it away almost like it was a bomb. We’ve had so many fine margins go against us this year that the others have caught up.Think Rodri summed it up on motd - on so many var issues, the ref kept saying to us continue and play on.

I was watching a BeIn stream for today's game and even Jim Beglin thought we should've had at least 2 penalties. The Haaland one for being dragged down by Chilwell and the Walker foul. I didn't hear what he said about the one at the end with Dias (either the shirt pull or handball) as I was too apoplectic to listen.

It's not even about the potential penalties for me. Madley set the tone early doors when he allowed them to kick fuck out of us. It 100% effects the way we play; everyone knows it. Refereed fairly, we win that game.
How they finished with 11 in the pitch is beyond me. Fucking scandalous from the cheating PiGMOL cunts.

Yes the Willy Twirler initiated contact on Raz but they are given every single time when it’s not us. Remember Leicester getting x3 in one game v us for exactly this. Swap Walker for Saka/Rashford or Salah, 100% givenThe final moment was never a penalty IMO... The Sterling incident on Walker was a FAR bigger shout for me.

The Walker one is given all the time. One player gets to the ball first, or gets ahead of the other player, and gets kicked or tripped.
I refer you to Foden’s swinger, where he’s playing the ball and a player sticks his foot in and gets kicked!
It’s not even a matter of “It’s contact, so it’s a foul,” but rather “He gets tripped by sneaking ahead of the other player!”
Infuriating!
As for players who wrestle other players to the ground while not even watching the corner being taken…WTAF IS GOING ON? We get mauled like this every game!
Lastly, the last minute incident is VAR simply having their balls sucked into their body cavity! I want to hear the audio between them all and why the pulling of Dias down by the shirt is “incidental contact” and then how the defender batting the ball away isn’t given?!
