It might have been the same passage of play but the whistle didn't go so in isolation they count individually because the play could have been stopped twice. They still missed them both.
I'm starting to smell a rat with you.

Because you are behaving like you don’t know how the real world works, like you are still in your mother’s womb,What's the relevance/implication?

Usually follows the money?Again its a wide open question. Corruption comes in many strains. Is that refs match fixing, fixing of cup draws, Leicester doping etc, betting syndicates for such as first corner etc?
What are you referring too?
It won’t until you can see things in context over a prolonged period, you’re isolating games to justify your opinions.I can and do see it, we should have been awarded two penalties without question. But, I'm merely arguing about motive, and it just doesn't make sense right now.

A rat? Huh? Not everyone is going to have the same opinion as you on subjective matters. It's not like I'm claiming we shouldn't have been awarded penalties, I'm merely stating I don't subscribe to the corruption theory yet.
Not sure I agree about VAR being corrupt. It's definitely inept and confusing. I agree there were at least 2 pens, but we've seen in the Premier League that if the ref doesn't give a pen, then the bar for a VAR overrule is ridiculously high.

Yes corruption normally does.

Not much to be made out of either the PL or the CL then i should imagine?Yes corruption normally does.
Same here. I'm sure UEFA is corrupt in some respects, and in the pockets of some traditional clubs, but I doubt that referees are deliberately conspiring against Manchester City. As you say, refereeing error is not the same thing as conspiracyA rat? Huh? Not everyone is going to have the same opinion as you on subjective matters.

I know corruption exists but it's usually followed with a logical explanation for its existence as well as how it will be implemented.
