balotelli will get the 1st red card ever, for a" menacing or aggressive stare" you seen it here first

We've already had one for something similar, 'walking in an aggressive manner' or somesuch. Can't remember who it was for though.

Not arsed if there is an agenda or not. Still clear at the top, richest club in the world (?), great manager, best squad by a country mile, great fans, great stadium etc etc etc, We're not in a popularity contest. We are here to win and that's what we are doing. Just laugh at them all and enjoy the ride.

I wouldn't label Lescott "black". He's more Klingon.

not cool

You've not been a City fan long, we've in the not so recent past had a player sent off for "aggresive walking" towards a ref, and another for licking an opponent.

Horlock, I think.

You know

If there is an agenda or not an agenda, it certainley feels like the club are disliked by the media, which leads people to think there is an agenda, if seems we can't do anything right in their eyes, and it has been like this for a while.

But one does get the feeling that they are using the Mario incident to cover up their blushes for over hyping spuds all last week, I think they know that there is every likelihood with their run of games they are going to start slipping.

I await with baited breath what will be said if Saint Harry of the Brown Envelope does get found guilty! What's worse a minor incident on a football pitch or stealing money (because that is what he is accused of) of the people of this country!

"Lescott is black. They aren't taking any action. Bang goes the theory"

Lescott is also an England player in a euro championship year.

Also, I personally believe they couldn't take the chance of retrospectively sending off TWO city players. It would be too obvious even for them.

And my point was about the media agenda.

Can you truly hold your hand on heart and say there isn't a media led agenda against our club?

Anyway, I'm not bitter. I really do hope spurs go on this season to win "the north London cup"

Not against our club specifically, no. The media will focus on the top clubs. Arsenal have taken far worse batterings in the press this season than we have. AVB and Chelsea have had the same. Balo behaved like a child and was lucky to stay on the pitch and in the end win the game for us. When you are at the top you will attract more attention. There is no agenda, he should have been sent off.

 

[PistonBlue]

Surprised no one is mentioning Modric pushing Balo in the back while his "planted foot" is actually sliding from under him.

That's how I see it. Modric pushes Mario and sends him off balance -at least that's how it looks to me. For me there is certainly enough doubt as to the intent.

The real big question now, is how on earth can Webb say he didn't see it when he clearly did? The case for the agenda grows daily.

 

[Balti]

the refs get paid by the FA

the FA get paid by the Premier League

the Premier League get paid by $ky

$ky-mutv joint venture was paid for by $ky and man yoo

direct linkage from ref-FA-premier league-$ky-man ushited

LOL
