Fuck me Fighting Talk is a bitter place today. Colin Murray's last one and they have amongst others Jim White and Justin Moorhouse and the City abuse and claims about the FFP is flying thick and fast - Biased to fuck.

Maguire's appeal in his Mykonos assault case is finally going ahead after 3 years. The mard arse liar has been given dispensation to appear on a video link instead of being in court. He now claims the police beat him up which I don't recall him saying before. It all sounds like it's going to be swept under the carpet.

Harry Maguire to stay in UK for Greece cop assault retrial and testify by video

The England footballer got a 21-month suspended sentence following an incident outside a bar, but the 30-year-old appealed, which nullified his conviction under Greek law

Hmmmmmmm, Ronnie the Rapist smashed a boys phone. Nothing was done until he was leaving the Rags.

3 years you say, hmmmmmmm. Perhaps I'm just to cynical.
 
If anyone wants a good read and a really good laugh just Google 'Magnier 99 questions'

I bet if you googled 'the self destruction of the rags' you'd get the same results.
If any rag tries to give you shit about our 115 charges, point them in that direction.

Attwell again, quelle surprise.

Attwell is such a weak referee. (Or working to orders). Do the right thing. A marginal penalty decision, benefit of the doubt should go to the team currently losing 0-2 away from home. Not with Attwell. He gives the most popular decision, the one that will get least criticism.

I had the commentary on TalkSport and I think it was Dean Ashton summarising. He just said, yeah, there's a touch. He's definitely touched him. I then checked the laws, and I can't find anywhere that says if a player touches another player, it can be counted as a foul.

Fofana didn't foul Fernandez. He merely touched his boot. The other way round and there is no way a penalty is given. It's a coming together they would say.

This is one way in which they can manipulate VAR. Always give the favoured team the decision that benefits them, and then only if the "very high bar" of clear error is met will the decision be overturned.

This is not the first time Attwell has favoured United at Old Trafford this season, as we know to our detriment.

Think he's gone. Southgate has said he can't pick him anymore if he doesn't play. Jose might take a punt, he likes the old carthorses.

Quite right, but what he really means is he can't pick him anymore if he doesn't play for Manchester United.

I agree with most of what you say apart from the bit where the benefit of the doubt should go to the team 2-0 down away from home, there should be no benefit of the doubt for any team and certainly not in the all seeing VAR era.

Yeah. I don't mean benefit of the doubt with VAR, I mean with Attwell. It was at best a 50:50 decision. Attwell could easily have waved play on, and VAR would have corrected him if wrong.

If it's not corruption (which I think it is), it is a referee who knows very well what benefits his career.
 
Re Casemiro's goal on Thursday, does VAR EVER rule out a United goal? Whenever they go to VAR, rag goals seem to be awarded as a matter of course.
Ours don't - not too often, anyway
