[Doctor Jimmy and Mr Jim]

Didn’t think it was a red at the time, and it should have been rescinded in the pitch. Makes a bit of a mockery of VAR. Not convinced an appeal would’ve been successful if it was a different club, mind you. Not that it really matters. Fernandes is more of a hindrance to United on current form.

I was just thinking the same thing......if there is one silver lining to this red card being overturned, then it's the fact that the scum were actually even more shit with him on the field!

....a penalty awarded after the final whistle and when some players had left the pitch !!

Corruption in plain sight.

Think they were on the coach home…..

I see the dutch dope is still saying that he isn't worried by the rags piss-poor performances and does not worry about the threat of getting sacked,

Of course he doesn't , 1) because he is totally deluded and 2) because he knows that due to his recently signed new contract, he will be due to receive a massive payout and be at the same time be released from the rancid club and set-up of mis-management.

Win-win situation............................which is considerably better than his management record !

Some gig that. You can see Ten don’t give a fuck. He knows they want rid and is on borrowed time. Signed the new deal knowing he will be on holiday before Christmas. Clever devious bastard is ten.


His whole demeanour mimics his players performance. Namely that once it goes wrong and the league is gone they don’t bother trying because the deluded fuckers are stuck in an emotional abuse cycle. Rinse and repeat every year.

They would be safer building like any other team with money. Get the philosophy, identify the players and get a coach to implement but this is the greatest club in the world and they do it a different way.

Another nail in the rag coffin once the master of ten (stick to the plan) ball is dumped for another managerial appointment that is the best in the world and will stop city in their tracks.

On another rag-related point, I have just seen the Govan Bully, sadly looking relaxed and reasonably healthy.

I was hoping to see him looking mentally crushed, beaten and forlorn, but I guess the money the daft cunts are still paying him for sweet fa is probably helping his demeanour.

Clearly none of their ignorant fuckwit supporters are giving him grief regarding Rock of Gibralter and/or his assistance given to the the Glazer empire !

I live in hope .

Brilliant

I think we’d already come to that conclusion on here.

I think we’d already come to that conclusion on here.

Ten Haag seems to be struggling with the concept based upon his comments regarding their current situation.

 

[Grassland Blue]

I actually thought the red was a bit harsh. But there‘s obviously no grounds for it to be rescinded.

The ref saw it as a red.
Var saw no reason to challenge the on pitch decision.

AND THEN - Sky and the rag media decided to use their influence to get the red rescinded.

(Perhaps City should have tried the same tactic by complaining about the double foul on Ederson, which stopped him from being able to make an attempt to stop arses 2nd goal....)!

 

[Grassland Blue]

They are playing Salieri to City's Mozart and they fucking hate it. They can't understand how it happened, but all empires crumble in the end, often because of the complacency or vainglory of their leaders. Or because the world changes and makes them untenable.

In 1901, Britain had the largest empire the world had ever seen, with vast reserves of gold stacked up in the Bank of England. It was the world's leading military power. Look at us now. Times change, and what was once unassailable disappears and becomes something different altogether.

And now it is our turn to have an Empire.
Hopefully one that will last for 1,000 years.........

Selective application of their own rules - who would have believed it ?

United need all the help they can get.

If the PL can't help one of their own what's the point of having an appeal system.

Rules are for other teams to abide by and they can then be punished, Refs should know that.
Thank heaven's for the appeal system.
