United's Corrupt Points Tally.. +4

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

Only just seen the Rashford pen it's one of those that Rashford gets running fast across a player he makes the contact and 80% of the time the get a pen and var can't overturn that but if the referee didn't give it they wouldn't overturned it either! So as normal at the swamp give the penalty

This, as I and many others (including Steve Cooper today) have pointed out previously, is the crux of it.

It's the speed at which the ref gives the decision in favour of the rags that's the issue.

Give it (which they pretty much always do) and it won't be overturned due to the "clear and obvious" bullshit line, and refs know it.

I mean, do they even have a monitor at old scaffold, let alone a big screen? If they do, why? The refs there have no need to review an incident as they're certain they've given the correct decision, and VAR just says "not enough of an error to over-rule"

But "Meh", fuck 'em, they're shit!

They’ll get their arses handed to them plenty of times this season when they meet half decent teams.

That's not the point

And European referees won't fall for the shit

 

[Bluearmy]

So 3 games in they’ve had 5 dodgy decisions, incorrectly go in their favour already.

Wolves non Pen by Onana



Martinez foul for pen at Spuds



Sending off for Forrest (wasnt last/only man)



Dive by Rashford, pen given



Varane push in box



With 1 not going in their favour (under the current laws surprised it wasnt given),


The handball at spuds!!

I'm going 15/20 how many games we in ????
3 game two dodgy decision at least .........probably go quiet for a bit and we will be hit with a couple more in October

If the likes of Forest and Wolves are carving them up then you know what's coming it's only weak refs that will stop it happening

 

[BlueMonkey79]

They aren't even making it subtle this season for the rags. You would think old Howard would be instructing his buddy's to gift them points slowly.

Hopefully the whole corruption programme will come crashing down like a house of cards for them.

PGMOL won't overturn yesterday's goals. It was technically a penalty and technically a red card.

Like sometime else said the speed the ref gave the card was about the only issue really.

 

[Cityfan]

tbh I didnt see todays decisions as corrupt in the extreme way utd have been getting them. It was technically a pen. It was technically last man pulling him down. Can argue this or that but its not as fucked up as the Onanna or Rashford calls.

They were the kind of decisions that 95% of the time go the other way but at OT they seem to get them over 95% of the time.
Must admit I think this is more important as it's harder to call out.

 

[manimanc]

Stuart Atwell is corrupt as fuck. Anybody noticed that he permanently has that look on his face like he's just remembered he left the gas on?
He's been told how to ref games, he isn't doing it naturally.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

That's not the point

Yeah, without the VAR leg-ups they'd be relegation fodder!

For me it was a stupid last man challenge. Stupid tackle in the box. And the ref obliging.

Eh. Its a clear dive

 

[SanPellegrini]

I think it was a pen and would have been given by VAR if not the ref. I’d be annoyed if that wasn’t given for us based on what we’ve seen in recent years.

Still the Onana call in their previous game was indefensible, as was the Rashford offside last year, as are the number of 50/50s going their way in matches.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Eh. Its a clear dive

Yup. And the defender touched him slightly. Technical penalty. Pgmol will not apologise and would never overturn that.

And if that is one of our players I would expect a penalty.
Whether WE get it is another thing.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

It's worth also mentioning that as shit/corrupt as the referees are, it's not helped by the fact that they basically cheat their way through any tight match. Was there any doubt that Rashford wasn't going down yesterday? I wonder if they've ever had a yellow card for diving in their entire history.

I’d be embarrassed if one of our players did that. Ive no idea how anyone that played the game at even school boy level can possibly think that's a pen.

A touch/brush of players is not a technical penalty. Bizarre take

It should have been a yellow card

 

[Bluearmy]

The defender pulled out and Rashdive initiated the tiniest amount of contact and threw himself to the ground. 100% dive

Exactly. Some bat shit crazy people around that don’t understand the game at its most basic level….
