Where the fuck did EIGHT minutes come from?

I was predicting ten. Grealish was down for at least three minutes, several of their players were suffering mystery injuries before we scored, multiple substitutions, a VAR check…Of course if we’d have been behind it would have been five at most

Haha. Their plan to get us into another period of extra time completely backfired, thankfully. Serves 'em right, the cheats.

And if the same thing happened this season with the same officials they’d still give it to united

This is why I don’t post in here anymore, it’s just a “it’s all a conspiracy” because “we all know what would have happened at the other end”.

I popped in to say that the handball rules have been changed and that the penalty given against Grealish in the final wouldn’t be given this season, as shown by the non-award yesterday. Nothing else.

I’ll leave you guys to it until the next point of order appears.

Dippeers have got Madeley - Everton are screwed,

Yep, remember Madeley for the Dippers at Palace, 17 fouls each and he somehow booked 6 Palace players and then a 2nd yellow for the softest of fouls for a red before trying to even the stats up with 2 Dipper bookings in the 9th and 10th minutes of added time. And of course he let Chelsea kick us at will and failed to send Caicedo off in our 1-1 game.
But re the Dippers it doesnt matter who the ref is, they are reffed leniently and with different rules, remember Young getting sent off for a 2nd yellow early in the reverse fixture then the same ref bottled giving Konate a 2nd yellow and red in the same game

I was fuming watching that twat ref today.
Just another example of a fef influencing the game by not giving fouls & bookings. Some of the ‘tackles’ he let go today were truly awful. It was a disgraceful performance.

I don’t agree. Compared to his performances before and the average performances by other PL refs, Oliver had a decent game. He certainly made no more mistakes than any of the players on the pitch.
And yes, there were some strong challenges. So what. Let the play flow where it’s possible. Players sometimes need to toughen up a bit. I’m happy no City player is a crybaby or falls over with the tiniest of touches.

I honestly thought Oliver was ok yesterday. Maybe it’s because we didn’t play a team in red.

Oliver reffed the same against Arsenal at the Etihad. Allowed the opposition to foul at will, and waited far too long before showing a yellow card. He also allowed Chelsea to waste a lot of time from which they nearly benefited at the end. In my opinion he ruined what should have been a good game.

Wasnt that Taylor?
 
Malcontent said:
You, are right of course. Both reffed the games in similar ways.

We also had the same when we played Chelsea at home. Teams are allowed to kick us off the park yet we always seem to get the first yellow. Wouldn’t mind seeing a contrast of fouls to yellow card ratio for the league.

He did allow Caicedo to get away with murder but tbh he could easily have given the Grealish penalty (as well as the Doku one at Anfield). Neither were penalties IMO (particularly Doku's) but you've seen those given and if he wanted to stitch us up, those were perfect opportunities

I think, in general, the PL referees haven't been at all bad towards City since Taylor was too lax with Arsenal. The cynic in me says the PL has got what it wants, a tight title race, but let's see what happens now.
