Villa (H) Post Match Thread

[Blue Til Death]

Fake result.....offside & never handball as it was not on target (according to McManaman) :-)



3pts and top of the league - up yours BT
MCFC OK

By pointy cunts rules, that means you can be an outfield player and pick the ball up in the area, as long as it’s not on target :-))
I’m fuckin loving all this bile and trying to belittle our wins it’s music to my ears.. The more bitter these clowns get the happier i am ....

How can Walton not know that rule? Its not new, its been there since about 1990.

I think Mings did not know that too

The players were absolutely furious at that one.

I genuinely thought we would get someone sent off for calling out Moss. Dean Smith being the one was a surprise.

After he gave it as a goalkick instead of a corner I think I just switched off and didn't even think about it.

Yeah I'm glad we scored, the players were getting furious with him after he gave all those soft fouls for Villa.

John Terry apparently approached Moss in the tunnel.

Asked for his wife’s address, apparently.

A great performance of grit and guile against defensively superb opponents. For the 500 posting in the match thread about strikers, we are on a great winning run without a dedicated hitman and there is no guarantee, whatsoever, that we would be creating as many chances with one. Can we not just accept that we may just be reinventing English football once more. Get in lads.

If we'd had a striker we might not have needed around 28 chances to score.

Shocking how former professional players struggle comprehending the rules of the game.

Mings became active playing the Ball.

Very similar to a Brain dead defender making a back pass to the Keeper with an attacker coming back from an off side postion.

I cant remember who it was against,but it was definitely a City game.It might have been Steve Lomas (i think).He had left the field of play during a City attack.Brain dead defender passes back to the Keeper as he had just come on the field of play,comes from behind the Keeper intecepts the Ball.And slots home.GOAL.

A player in an offside position receiving the ball from an opponent, who deliberately plays the ball, is not considered to have gained an advantage’.

"Therefore, Mings playing the ball deliberately - you can see him try and chest the ball - plays the Manchester City player onside even though he’s in an offside position and therefore the goal should stand.

"Just to clarify that, he wasn’t gaining an advantage by being where he was."

 

[Blue Maverick]

All these roles are wrong and confusing players .....
When City gain an advantage ..... Wio is turning into a dipper, ashamed of nothing :-)

If Mings had headed the ball backward to his keeper and Rodri had received it then Rodri would again be onside because the opponent played it to him, it’s no different.

Seriously considering binning off BT sport and missing games because they were an absolute fucking disgrace from start to finish tonight.

I bloody love it on nights like tonight. A load of City hating bias, a bit of controversy and a City win, then a load of City hating crying, squirming, moaning, fury... sweet as fuck!

Never off side and any pundit who said it was has just confirmed they do not understand the LotG

Owen was straight in there but we already know he is an imbecile

Excellent win for gritty City. Nasty weather as well
