This is the reality, unfortunately for the press. The great majority of other teams' fans likes to see United and Liverpool get beaten. By anyone. It will take another ten years for the press bias to work its way out of the system though, I guess. If the press as we know it still exists then, which I doubt.In airport ready to fly back. Got to say all the cockneys i have spoken too (non rags) all wanted us to beat the scum. And loads congratulating us. And wishing us best for next week.
Shame.

Just read an article on ESPN about VAR decisions regarding their penalty, Casemiro potential red card and KDB non-penalty. I am now even more confused over the role that VAR plays. How many times this season have the rags either been given penalties or had them denied against them for handball incidents? How could they not investigate Casemiro's challenge on Akanji but can go back to fouls committed on the halfway line as justification to disallow a goal? What would have happened if City had scored a goal while they were speculating whether or not Grealish had deliberately handled the ball?Well pigmol you tried your best but FuCK YOU! Well deserved victory!!!
And finally, when did the offside rule change that you would be offside even if the ball came back off a defender?

And wasn't Rashford offside in the build up to their penalty anyway? Or was that just Twitter bollocks?Just read an article on ESPN about VAR decisions regarding their penalty, Casemiro potential red card and KDB non-penalty.

What a day! Still buzzing.
I spoke to Gary Owen before KO and he asked how I was feeling? Nervous I said... Just relax, enjoy it, we're going to smash these. What a man.
Istanbul on Fri, this could be the best week of my life.

Last bit of the offside rule hasn't changed.Just read an article on ESPN about VAR decisions regarding their penalty, Casemiro potential red card and KDB non-penalty.

Do they have VAR in ping pong?it did bounce a couple of times so shouldve been chalked off as not clean strike

I watched the game back on the way home. Fred was booked for his 3rd bookable foul. The TV coverage never showed a replay of the 4th one. While we were setting up the free kick they panned onto Ortega for the whole time. It was never mentioned again.Just watched the full game again. Totally dominant. Utd outclassed and we weren’t at our best. John Stones and Gundo excellent. Akanji and Ortega very good. Berni and Jack very quiet. How the hell did Fred not get that 2nd yellow. Weak ref.

Ten years!? You seen the ages of these bias media hacks? More like 25 years
