Just seen the extended highlights and the 'foul' for the penalty looks even more ludicrous when yer see Tosin's header that went wide - he's nudged by a Leicester player with more force than took Grey down, and then Maguire's header to the back post - he swipes TWO City defenders out of the way with his arm. Just shows how much of a lottery decisions can be, and how fuckin' useless Madley continues to be!
There was no lottery here.

Thai owned team helped, in Thai sponsored cup competition ?
 
And funnily enough, when we were Thai-owned we had a superb record when our games were officiated by a certain North-East former referee.
Before we get carried away please remember that Carabao and Chelsea have a link. Bit like Arsenal in the FA Cup. In any other business it would be classed as a conflict of interest to have a competition sponsored by the same company that sponsors one of the entrants. And the winner of Daily Telegraph sponsored editor of the year award goes to....the Daily Telegraph editor... it just wouldn't wash so why are teams sponsored by Carabao and Emirates allowed to enter these cups?
 
Bloody hell. What a collection of clowns. We are in for a right royal going over from these - sendings off, fouls against us ignored, good goals disallowed.

I truly fear the worst from them. The problem is, who is any better?
 
I wasn't initially sure whether it was just pure incompetence, as he IS a shite referee, but for me, it was the excepton which proved the rule, when he gave a free kick against Leicester, late in the game, for some offence in our box, during a totally non threatening situation, but he 'missed' a whole catalogue of constant, blatantly obvious, wrestling moves, by people like Maguire, all game, in much more dangerous circumstances, when it looked like he might get a header in on target.

He didn't 'miss' those at all, he chose to ignore it.
Exactly. Maguire climbed up on the back of a defender at every one of their attacking set pieces and nothing was given. Was ridiculous.
