United thread 2012/13 (inc merged IPO thread)

[Syth]

Last few Utd games:

Reading Home 1-0 (own goal and Reading penalty claim turned down)
Sunderland Away 1-0 (own goal)
Man City Home 1-2 (own goal and should have had 2 sent off)
Stoke Away 2-0 (soft penalty given and blatant stoke one not given)
West Ham Away 2-2 (one of the clearest offsides not given to gain them a point).

Evens itself out over a season though as they had all the rough calls early on away to Chelsea, Liverpool etc. Oh hang on............

Sums it up pretty much. Sad, sad times!

That's karma for his theft of a doughnut that went unpunished. The manager of Tesco, who didn't pursue it with the police, is probably a rag while Taggart put Shaggy picking up a Krispy Kreme, shoving it in his mouth and attempting to leave the store with paying for it down to 'cultural differences'. (Because in Spain anyone is allowed to take items from a supermarket without having to pay). Just another c*nt among so many.

It's true. Anyone going to Spain this summer try it, it's a Spanish custom that all shopkeepers adore.

Wow, just saw this for the first time. Yet again the invisible hand drags them over the line. You can understand sometimes when they're almost level and the linesman gets it wrong but that is the most blatant offside you'll see.

Bloody hell how do you miss this? The linesman is right there ffs. Clear as daylight they are being handed decisions in their favour, makes me mad as hell. Would've been good to read something in the media today about the offside goal that handed them 1 point, but God forbid..

Look at that picture and tell me the game isn't bent.

I was in Madrid earlier this year, and can confirm that they do yes. Took half the shop with me and they were just standing there smiling!

I may be mistaken, but wasn't it you last year who was saying it's no good having one team run away with the league and they want to make the Premier League as exciting as possible right till the very day? Following up from that, people were saying that United weren't getting the odd decision in the run in given to them because they "want to even it up a little". Surely if this was the case, then disallowing that goal would be the best option, thus reducing the gap even more?

*You could take a still of the Ashley Young offside call against City earlier in the season whilst they were 2-0 up and wonder why, if the game was so bent in their favour, that Young's "goal" would surely be given?

*and before anyone jumps the gun, this isn't an "it even's itself out" post by any stretch of the imagination.

Roy Hodgson to approach wobblegob to offer him another chance to play for England.

Seriously Roy, you're making yourself look like a twat.

I really can't see any truth in that rumour, he might say to the media "Yes, course I'll consider Wio", but what he means is "Not while I've got a hole in my arse, is that camel-faced gobshite getting in this team."

If it did happen then it would be the straw that broke the camels gob for quite a few non-Rag supporters.
