I just can't begin to understand how anyone can be so naive as to think that we've simply been ''unlucky'' with ''poor decisions'' and ''inept refereeing''

Ask yourself this.... When the authorities tried to hobble City by 'legitimate' means with FFP and they failed, do you really think they were just going to meekly skulk away with their tail between their legs and give up on the whole idea of putting City in their place?
 
The problem is that there is no accountability, they don't need to answer or explain any of their decisions, and until they do there is always going to be accusations of bias or worse corruption

VAR will resolve most of the issues but still probably not a very tight offside. The rule needs to change in that there needs to be clear air between the 2 players for it to be offside. That way it will always be transparent(excuse the pun) for us all to see and will probably lead to more goals which is the purpose of the game after all.

UEFA have already said it won’t be brought in for the UCL games anytime soon haven’t they?

No surprise, as you can’t yet bribe a piece of electrical equipment as far as I’m aware
 
VAR now! That is all.

Just frustrating the only two major competitions not to implement until 2019/20 is the Premier League and Champions League.

Every other major league has already decided the time has come already.
 
Both results could have been very different if VAR was there. It sucks to be at the end of poor decision in games of such significance,
 
There must be some mistake here. Pep has been charged by EUFA within hours for a hasty word or two whereas the possible life threatening antics at Anfield cannot be looked at until nearly June.

Not sure we've had any that completely changed the game.

Happy to eat my words if anyone can name one.

the only 2 I can recall, is Kompany should have gone in a game, Bournemouth, but in that same game Aki should have gone and then we had sterling sent off for scoring an injury time winner and then having the audacity to celebrate.

the only other one I recall is Silva offside, v Arsenal. However, they never showed the ball leaving dinhos foot if I remember correctly. The still was the frame after it left his foot, where he looked offside. so was very questionable, although looked a mile off in real time. However, in that game sterling had a tap in at the back post and was hauled down (No foul given, no pen, no red card), so even if the silva one did go for us, the decisions against us in that game were not in our favour either...

Can anyone else remember anymore??
