Its hard for me to believe its corrupt , i dont want to believe it more so. But where there is money there is corruption.
I often think back to when Leicester won the league. That was incredible for the prem brand. Plucky underdogs etc
And where as ive no problem with leic winning it, huth and morgan , their 2 centre halves , fouled and pushed their way through that season with total impunity. At corners and free kicks they had free reign to do what they wanted
Maybe my paranoia who knows. But i often wonder were refs told to turn a blind eye

We battered them with 10 men second half, they were going head to head with Leeds for the title and I knew that night they would bottle it.White missed a sitter to win it a few mins later…. Still gutted now!!
we need to score the same goal Haaland running 20 yards offside and ignore defenders stopping to play even the whistle and create a scene if someone like Foden coming from onside to actually score it.
if they dont award nt send in Carson to KO the 4th ref for a start.

I’ve just rewatched the match—because I am a masochist—and the officiating was even worse than I remembered.
Nearly everything went for United, even ignoring that farcical goal.
50/50 challenges? 80% to United.
Penalty claims? 100% to United.
Offside calls? 90% to United.
Fouls-to-Bookings? 100% to United.
They had 15 fouls and only 3 yellow cards, with Malacia puting in about 5 of them on Mahrez with no booking. And they had many other fouls that weren’t called. We had 5 fouls.
Phil was immediately flagged for very tight offsides by the same ref that kept his flag down for the Interpretative Movement Ghost Goal.
The bias toward United is so blatant the only explanation is that the league just doesn’t care how obvious it. They aren’t even trying to hide it. And with the United support through the industry and world, the ‘cry more’ drama and controversy at City’s expense is perhaps exactly what they wanted.
It’s infuriating.
That’s the game I watched and is usually the same game we play against every team we get fuck all! We never get a Homer like other clubs and like what pep says we have to much better than any team
Well f**k me sideways! All 4 basically said it should of been disallowed.
Easy after the event we never get the 3 points back that scum of a referee gave them
Juve got done with far less controversial decisions going in their favour!!Its hard for me to believe its corrupt , i dont want to believe it more so. But where there is money there is corruption.

This is whats pissing me off. They are deliberately ignoring the law as its written.Gallagher saying 'ah thats only a bulletin point...blah blah, there's 4'
The offside law clearly uses the word 'OR' not 'AND'
'making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball'
Its so blindingly obvious that the goal had to be ruled out for offside-it is completely indefensible.

Haaland would be (and has been) immediately flagged offside before he (and our other players) got anywhere near goal, just as Phil was against United (by the same linesman).we need to score the same goal Haaland running 20 yards offside and ignore defenders stopping to play even the whistle and create a scene if someone like Foden coming from onside to actually score it.

so encouraging the 'law is an ass' response...when the bloody law says its offside!This is whats pissing me off. They are deliberately ignoring the law as its written.
