Now Fook Off..

 

[remember arthur mann]

Regardless of the result, City need to write to the FA/Pigmol demanding an explanation of the different standards of refereeing for both clubs.

They're waiting.

Noticed the cogs turning when City lifted the trophy, whatever next?

Honestly for me this was more important than next weekend.

Yeah, nothing tops sticking it to the Rags.

 

[The perfect fumble]

Fucking brilliant. You couldn’t ask for better timing

I love that it was scored at their end.

Yeah! He was a fan of the team Zaba used to play for, so he was always gonna be blue!

You've answered your own question.

Jack's arm was in an entirely natural position for someone attempting to jump as high as possible at an angle on the turn, it would be bizarrely unnatural if his arms somehow remained stuck to his side whilst he attempted it.

And yet the ref and VAR somehow interpreted his arm to be in an unnatural position.

I agree. However if they deem your arms being away from the body without caveats, we get yesterday's scenario so what do PiGMOL do to rectify the situation?

Remember this season was their “united is back” year . Lol

If a defender has spread himself as wide as possible with outstretched arms, it’s deliberate handball, as it’s a premeditated action.

That’s why players hold their hands behind their backs nowadays.

If you're sliding in for a block, one arm will probably be on the grass with the other extended from the body for balance. What if the ball hits the outstretched arm for balance?
