Heard on the radio that Andre mariner is referee for the league cup final. It was followed by a comment and in the games he has reffed United they have not lost this season.
The lengths they go to report positiivr spin in implying they have some sort of advantage by his appointment.
Not singling you out but why can't people see the big picture here? We get ridiculous decisions week in, week out yet the rags get away with murder. There's a pattern; it's not just random refs and decisions. Think about what Scudamore said. Think about who the biggest fan-bases support (and therefore bring in the most revenue to the media companies).Once again we get a ref who is just not fit to referee a premier league game. There were far worse fouls on city players that MD let go and then he goes and books KdB for a slight trip and follows that up with an even bigger howler by booking RS when he was clearly trip by Lucas Fabianski. This just goes to show that standard of refereeing has backwards since they have become professional, it is time that PGMOL got to grips with this and started to force referees to attend press conferences after games, so that they can explain their decisions to both the managers and the press.

Just finished reading what MH has said in the Daily Mirror. I guess that that shows that the PGMOL REFs are being told how they should be refereeing certain games, that should not be happening. Now we know why PGMOL won't allow refs to be asked questions after game s because it might show that they have been totally inept.
Whilst I appreciate your knowledge in this subject is wide, I still struggle to understand the narrative. Is it, pro Utd and anti City, pro Utd and anti everyone else, just anti City? I ask because, if they are at it, they're really not very good at it are they? We've not been out of the CL places since 2011 compared to the rags missing out twice in three years? Arsenal haven't won the PL for 12 years and the dippers have never won it.Not singling you out but why can't people see the big picture here?

In 2011/12 the indications were that it was both pro rags and anti City, with the intention of denying us the title in favour of them. Fortunately we managed to stop it in time for us to scrape home. But not every game is bent and even if it is, it could just be about number of corners, cards, a goal here or there. rather than a 90-minute outcome. But even in bent games (the 6-1 win at Norwich in 2011/12 was one) sometimes the ref is powerless to affect the result.Whilst I appreciate your knowledge in this subject is wide, I still struggle to understand the narrative.

If however, you're suggesting referees are up to no good for personal gain, I see that, especially given some of the odd decisions made in many games this season.
