Honestly if i had to pay my money to re-new my season ticket tomorrow, i wouldn`t , just dont see the point in following a game thats rigged.
That's exactly how I feel, fucking fuming.

As to the guy who said we'll just have to concentrate on the cups next year. Remember what happened to get us out of the cups this year?
 
Top tip fellow blues

10-1 Lee Mason to score next goal.

Worth a punt i reckon.
 
Anything less than 5-0 will be a boost if we win at Arsenal considering the circumstances.

If there is a fair God up there we need him to intervene NOW!!

The radio commentators on BBC London are severely taking the piss out of the ref and linesman, just called them "this comedy clown duo."

Their summing up at half time was top. Basically called the ref a cheat and the linesman a cock-sucker, but in nice BBC speak.


Love it, they're correct too
 
It's an absolute disgrace, I hardly post on here anymore and just follow. However this is just the final straw and something had to be said. United are the darlings of the Premier League era and as the poster boys of the league they are a cash cow for the FA and Sky. I've heard a lot of blame being attributed to the FA but Sky are just as involved in all of this IMHO and with their financial clout carry a lot of say in what happens. Most of us stopped watching WWF and professional wrestling once we found out it was scripted, maybe we should all do the same with the Premier League?

Oh well, there is always the Champions League. Oops, just the small issue of Platini, FFP and all the other obstacles that are there to insure the status quo remains.
 
Next season will be exactly the same, it won't change. Decision after decision will go their way, but oh! they'll have one bad decision against them some time in the middle of the season and every decision for them after that they will argue "Remember Newcastle? These things even themselves out over the season.". The only way we'll win the league is to basically win every home game and the majority of our away games to overcome the 10pt advantage United are given from the start.

The quality of refereeing in football is appalling. The game is refereed the same as it was a hundred years ago yet the game has moved on so much since then.

It's unacceptable.

The game is now so fast that it is too difficult to referee with a referee and his linesmen making decisions after they've seen something once, at one angle, at one speed. They need a video referee, there's no debating about it, they need a video referee.

Video refs should make decisions on:
1. Goal line incidents (over the line/ not over the line)
2. Penalty incidents (penalty/ no penalty)
3. Red card incidents (sending off/ no sending off)(anywhere on the pitch)
4. Offside incidents (onside/ offside)(that lead to goals)

Anything less than that and the game will will not be officiated to a high enough standard, and the standard at the moment is fucking appalling.

There's nothing anyone can say about anything that will disaude me from this view. Video refs are an absolute must.

Also referees need to be younger. It is a fact that concentration levels drop as you age I to your 40's yet almost all refs are 40+.

The officials behind the goal also need bringing in everywhere and given a flag.

With a video ref, the six officials who are all in their 30's will be aided much more and the game will be officiated properly.


The sport is a joke at the moment. The amount of decisions that are wrong, and horrifically wrong, week-in-week-out are absurd. The sport is an absolute joke. Football has actually become a fuckig joke!

I'm not particularly bothered that City may well miss out on the title this season because we will win loads of trophies over the coming decades and seasons where we win nowt (and we'll have numerous!) will be forgotten with all the good times we'll have. But look at Wigan yesterday; that is so bad it's unbelievable. They could go down this season and never come back up, they could be ruined as a club. In years to come Wigan Athlietic Football Club could fold due to financial difficulties which boil down to being relegated this season. Well, I'm afraid that is scandalous. It cannot be allowed to happen and it applies to all clubs in all leagues. We'll win trophies no matter what happens over the coming decades but the unacceptable level of officiating in this sport will ruin some clubs with all the decisions that are wrong at the moment, and it happens at many ground up and down the country evey single week without fail.

Football is a joke of a sport. It's actually pathetic. I used to play rugby league and am a huge rugby league fan still, and looking at football as an RL fan I just think footy is an absolute joke.

Football is a fucking joke of a sport!

Football is a joke!

It's a fucking joke!
So its not utd, its just bad refs is it ?
Every week up and down the country someone somewhere are subjected to horrendous refereeing that has nowt to do with United. That yesterday at Stamford Bridge doesn't impact United whatsoever (two offside goals and a punch in the back that all went against Wigan) - and there are dozens and dozens all over the show every week that don't - yet they happen.

Football is a joke in the way it is officiated.
 
It's no coincidence that as soon as we looked like we were getting away from them the refs poor decisions began.
Even the the swamp massacre we denied a stonewall pen.

We never had a chance this season, that's what hurts. It's not a question of incompetence some of these refs stray into the morally questionable. Cunts.


Just hope the big man sees it this way too. Keeps Mancini and starts to make certain individuals and organisations realise who wears the trousers in this world.<br /><br />-- Sun Apr 08, 2012 1:54 pm --<br /><br />
