its bent, how we won 2 prem titles is incredible , I said after hysel I would never go again, and it was 10 years before I went to a game, this time its for real,never again, and that is a sad thing to say after 50 + years following city, so fuck the fa fuck eufa, as from now I`m an armchair
 
Nov 26 - Turf Moor. Sergio Aguero, through on goal, gets a late offside flag, but carries on and nonchalantly chips the ball over Paul Robinson and into the Burnley net. Result? Yellow card.

Jan 20th - The Ethiad. Song Heung Min, through on goal, gets a late offside flag, but carries on and nonchalantly chips the ball over Claudio Bravo and into the City net. Result? No yellow card.

The referee for the first one? Andre Marriner.
The referee for the second one? Andre Marriner.

Just fancy that.........
 
I'm sure opposition teams and managers are aware that refs give us nothing and are taking advantage of it.
 
When it comes to the crunch, we as fans are not asking for special treatment, just fair and balanced decisions.
There is a total lack of anything resembling fairness in how referee's are managing our games.
It really is becoming depressing and infuriating.
Conscious Agenda? No.
Biase to a few chosen clubs? Absolutely...and we are not one of them.

This infuriated me at the time and even more now as I didn't realise it was same referee.
This is not inconsistency, it's nothing but bias against our club.

There's definitely an element of personal bias being shown against Sterling. He's constantly hacked down without a foul being given. The whole country seemingly want him to fail so I don't see how referees will be any different. It happens far far far too often for it to be a coincidence with him. Two weeks running he's had a nailed on penalty turned down at a hugely pivotal moment. He was massively fucked over in this very fixture last season with the phantom hand ball. Come to think of it we were hugely fucked over at WHL last season as well. Beyond a joke really.

We have been done by officials in 3 out of he last 4 games against Spurs by astonishing decisions.
 
We will have a great second half to the season for decisions, because apparently these things even themselves out over the course of a season
 
I've just watched again on MOTD. How three officials can not see that push on Sterling is grossly incompetent from all of them. The linesman Andy Garrett has only to look across with a totally unimpeded view to see the push. He (or his mate) flagged for a first half foul by Spurs, so they clearly had licence to help the ref with fouls when necessary.

Plus if Pep could clearly see it, linesman Beck should also have seen it. He could have at least given Kane offside to prevent the injustice. And fourth official Jones, who was closest to Pep should have seen it, but he looked as though he had just been interrupted from reading a good book when Pep berated him.

It's very difficult to believe this is all legitimate from them when it happens so often.

As for Pochettino, he can do one too. Not even the grace to admit they got lucky yesterday.

The linesman Beck was the one who screwed us over by ignoring the Spurs offsides in previous games. So knowing he had bad games with us previously, surely Riley will keep him away from City v Spurs?

This seems like Riley is trying to tell us to back off and let him do his job without interference.

Bang to fucking rights. So if one person such as Exeter can pull-up a single compelling fact such as this with what I assume was not a huge amount of effort, what the fuck is the Club doing to get the research done and pull together a complete portfolio of the shit we have been dealt by these corrupt bastards and get them called to account for their actions? WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH!
 
One more thing that rarely gets reported. If a ref fucks up against Liverpool or the Rags etc, they dont get to ref another of their games for 12/18 months at a minimum as the clubs simply tell PiGMOL and the PL they wont accept them. Its called punishment.

They fuck up against us and nothing. We get the exact same clown within a matter of weeks and the same fucking blatant cheating.

Thought this was the case at the game yesterday, just couldn't remember for sure if it was AM reffing at Burnley.
But that's it right there, proof that we are treated differently by some officials. Identical offences, dealt with in different ways by the same ref. It fucking stinks.

Wasnt it Aguero's reaction to being flagged, combined with the chip into the net, that earned him the yellow card? I thought he gave the linesman a bit of stick, sarcastic applause. Might be wrong.

We've been well and truly shafted this season. The defence and dodgy keeper haven't helped no denying that but for the fucking woeful officials we'd be up there challenging for the title. Just sick of it.

Not sure if this is relevant, and just playing devil's advocate really, but were City leading at Burnley so Aguero's booking was for time wasting? Spurs were losing yesterday when Son did it, so couldn't be accused of trying to gain an advantage. Or is the booking issued for dissent rather than time-wasting?

If I felt like that I probably would bin it off! Kane's was so marginal that you can take blame the linesman for not giving it. Same with Sane against Arsenal - the attacker got the benefit of the doubt. Jesus was clearly offside so not really comparable.

I called Kane's at the time, in real time. It should have been called. How many off sides and false penalties have Spurs benefitted from in the last couple of years??

Beck give offside against Kane? Not a chance! He didn't give offside against Walker last season at WHL, there's no way he's giving that.
 
After watching the highlights back on MOTD it looks like we had a good shout on all three penalties but the push by Walker is just ridiculous. The scum clearly can't afford another season outside the top four.
