I can't help but feel aggrieved at the blatant favouritism which the referee showed towards Citeh against Leicester. Basically won them the game single-handed.

Come now Mo, you know piss-poor dog****e refereeing evens itself out over a season. its just human nature to think the last few games are somehow more important than at any other stage of the season.Quote:

Did they have a goal chalked off as well as Marhez's penalty - you surely can't be saying that was the perfectly good goal disallowed?Quote:

Not the correct decision if it was for taking two touches. He slipped on taking it and the ball hit his other leg. It was unintentional so he therefore didn't "take" two touches. If you slip and eff up on the run-in you don't get a retake or anything, if he had an involuntary advantage it's the same. Those goals (not that it happens often) are never disallowed.
:hehe: Utterly ludicrous about Man City penalty - nailed on. Far more so than Marhez falling over thin air as Clichy pulled his foot awayQuote:

Apparently this isn't a pen :hehe:Quote:

Ball's gone, defender has his body on the ground. Sane hits him with his knee and dives acrobatically.
No quibbles about citeh's goal being offside then?
13 years ago today we sat on the Clock End and watched us life the :trophy:Quote:

we stole 6 points from Burnley this season.Quote:
