That was bizarre, it didn't matter today but imagine 0-0 v the dippers and a ref did that ?Also, the one where Sterling was breaking over the halfway line and he blows cos one of their players had gone down clutching his face after trying and failing to foul Fernandinho

He did get Fernandinho's elbow slammed into his nose to be fair. Purely accidentally of course.Also, the one where Sterling was breaking over the halfway line and he blows cos one of their players had gone down clutching his face after trying and failing to foul Fernandinho

Completely agree if city have a big lead they always play a nominal amount of stoppage time almost like a kids game so the opposition don't get too upset. Ridiculous for a premier League game.The utterly random nature of added on time is one of my bugbears. 2nd half today there were two goals, 6 subs and the pen VAR farce took 3 mins yet they only added on 3 mins.
It was just as important today as it would be if we need an injury time goal against Villa to win the league on goal difference. There should be more accountability.

The VAR farce took 4 minutes 30 seconds on it's own (including whatever was discussed after we scored).The utterly random nature of added on time is one of my bugbears. 2nd half today there were two goals, 6 subs and the pen VAR farce took 3 mins yet they only added on 3 mins.

The second half was only 13 seconds old when the foul/decision was given, we kicked off again at 49:45 on the screen clock, so lose the 13 seconds to get the decision, and the couple of seconds between the whistle and the ball entering the net, it's 4 minutes 30, then add 6 subs, and another goal, and come up with 3 minutes ?

Utter joke. I know it didn’t matter yesterday but I also recall against stoke when we smashed em at home 4-5 years ago. Blew on 90 minutes. Rules are rules.The VAR farce took 4 minutes 30 seconds on it's own (including whatever was discussed after we scored).

Rugby league has a timekeeper, when the game stops the clock stops. Simples. Football is run by idiots.

You say it didn't matter, what about goal difference at the end of the season ?Utter joke. I know it didn’t matter yesterday but I also recall against stoke when we smashed em at home 4-5 years ago. Blew on 90 minutes. Rules are rules.
