Referees/Officials

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

im nearly 52 and need to calm down but im getting close to running on the pitch and seriously attacking these cheating bastards, every single game

And this is the problem. It's getting to the players and it is getting to the fans. Someone is going to seriously loose it, be it a player or a fan. We've already seen Aguero loose his s**t with his assault on Sideshow Bob when the referee took no action for the clear Red card offence against him. Also Ferna loosing the plot in the mele afterwards because the Ref let them away with their snidey wind up tactics and petty continuous foul play.

It would show the FA just how p***ed of we are if a fan was to run on the pitch and smash one of the officials, but secretly I think that is what they are hoping for so they can give us a massive fine and dock us points.

Club cannot complain about refereeing decisions because we will get ignored and fined. Only way to win against the bar stewards is to create and score more goals. To many missed chances in to many games. We create so few that some of the few are non awarded penalties which we don't get and this makes it appear even worse.

What a load of cod's wallop

Exactly. Fred needs to apply his brain a bit more on the subject.

So guys! Your answer to the problem is what? Come on here and rant, shout and scream at the officials on match day? What good has that done so far? Really changed the way the officials behaved on Sunday didn't it! We get no support from any of the media as it plays right into their biased opinions. If we had them on our side I can understand but they ain't so like I asked what can you do about? Not heard a single suggestion on here.

Do you think that the referees punish and hate us because of the nationality and religion of our owners ??

i also think it might be an anti muslim thing and think maybe a complaint to the race relations board with all the corrupt atrocious decisions we have against us week in week out might be one of the ways to go . complaints within the corrupt football industry , everyone knows what is going on , will get us nowhere. I thought within the rule book a foul from behind was a automatic yellow card. Middlesboro away Southampton away and yesterday kun had the same agricultural foul for which he required treatment . no yellow card for any of these challenges.

It seems to be common consensus on here and amongst City fans in general that we are being done over by the officials, the FA and the PL and we get no support from the media. The belief is that the club management are putting pressure on in private but, this hasn't been confirmed. The manager has hinted about it in press conferences but, has said that he's been told not to question referees if he wants to avoid punishment. Two players have spoke out in public, Sagna being fined for a tweet and now Yaya has raised the question. Has fans we cannot be punished so we can say and do what we want. A few posters on here are saying that they have had enough and will not be renewing, a great shame that they are taking this extreme step, I can certainly understand it. Personally I will not be going to anymore FAC games until this unfairness is sorted out and will write to the FA to tell them why, I'm sure they wont give a shit but, if all City fans were to boycott the FAC next season then they might take notice, especially if we can get the City fans in the media involved to put our case in a fair way. Thoughts?

This FAC things sounds like a plan. Would we really have an empty stadium except for away fans? With a big sign instead of us? Would be great if we could get senior management behind us and not to actually sell tickets for the game after all it is up to the club whether we want to sell tickets for the game.

 

[Dunne's own goal]

I would just unveil a huge banner all the way from 1st tier to 3rd saying HEY FA, ALL WE WANT IS FAIR REFEREEING

And Unveil it before every game before we see improvement

 

[Newman Noggs]

We need a large banner displayed behibd the goal saying something along the lines of "The Premier League and FA - Proud sponsors of Manchester United" with that creepy picture of Gill on it.
