Wilkie or Atwell today

[Sky Blue]

George Courtney

now he was twat

Fuck me, those two pens for the Scouse. I was in the North Stand and launched my programme at him.

Was there for the Wilkie one too.

Who was the one who sprained his ankle and had to go off? His stand in was shite and we kept singing "we want the fat 2hat back"

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

I am pretty sure it was Oliver that gave the penalty when it Ricocheted at the speed of light from Micah's foot into his arm at Anfield?

Think it was fat boy Dowd

Atwell deliberately overruled the liner he is totally to blame. The VAR couldn't overrule the ref decision because its only an opinion that Rashford was interferring with play because he didn't touch the ball. Atwell is totally at fault for rank bad refereeing.

Rank bad refereeing is being very kind imo. We have seen, very clearly in the last week or so how certain teams in red are officiated (Yesterday & liverpool/Wolves). Its like a cancer thru the game. No VAR to blame (yes its implementation by same corrupt people is also a joke. Deliberate no doubt to try to ruin its credibility’s as it levels the field potentially and PIGMOL cant be having that). It clearly shows the mindset of officials when it comes to certain teams……. Been goin on for decades!

This thread is obsolete without any mention of Alf Grey 1981
City 0 Liverpool 1
League Cup semi final at Maine Road.
Those who know, know....

That was a blunder with no help from cameras and other officials. The decision yesterday was corrupt and rubber stamped in an office hundreds of miles away.

I was there and still not got over it

Will never forget the run in 2012. Fulham denied a last minute penalty,Carrick on Murphy. The look of guilt on Carricks face alone should have been enough for Oliver to give it. Disgraceful season defining decisions just brushed under the rug constantly.

Ha ha ha fat fingers..... should have said 1981 ha ha

Thank God for that. For a moment I thought I must have had another life. :-)

I probably invest far too much time and money into following football mainly City. My dad walked away from following football to a great degree in the 1970s. It was clear from his opinions that the game had moved away from what he'd grown up with in the 1940's and 50's.
I always said I'd never do that. I might be be being a bit overdramatic but I'm giving it serious thought this morning.

We should have all walked away from football in 1992 when they introduced this PL shitshow.

The only things that have actually improved for football fans is comfy seats and the quality of the pictures in televised games.

Football is dead.

 

[Brendan110_0]

Think that was Phil Dowd

Still not got over that one.

Its totally understandable. I still go but not like in the past. Life/family/job/money all gets more complicated as time moves on. When that happens yesterday you do question is it all worth it to some degree. Only natural. You'll probably snap out of it by Thursday blue, chins up ;)

Still winds me up !!!
If I remember correctly Wilkie was running the line at Wembley a few years later and did his cruciate.

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

Who can forget Danny Tiattos goal against Boro away in 98..he runs from his own half and slots a beautiful finish into the bottom corner. Cue absolute bedlam in our end, then after a good 30 seconds having my shins assassinated and my lovely hair being messed up, we all stood there in utter disbelief that the smoggy bastard and self acclaimed Boro fan Winter disallowed it..FOR OFFSIDE!!! You really couldn't make it up. Needless to say it kicked off royal outside afterwards. Somethings never change with our refereeing.

one minute in, is still a ridiculous decision now

 

[blue61]

I hope we don’t forget this next time Attwell is appointed referee or any other position at the Etihad.

I was sure Jeff Winter was the ref that day, time is such a thief to the memory. I wonder if he was linesman. Still can't believe that was dissalowed:(

 

[bobgoater]

Somehow I don't think attwell will back to the Etihad any time soon.needs a few weeks rest to reflect on his farcical decision making

 

[BlueMoonday]

I hope we don’t forget this next time Attwell is appointed referee or any other position at the Etihad.

Was thinking this yesterday, he deserves every bit of abuse he receives at the Etihad.
