Filmed on the touch line and constantly freezes. May as well not watch it. Half the matches this season have been unwatchable, if they were even aired. Been no point in even paying for MUTV.

Some abysmal decisions gone against us here the last 5 minutes. Hoogeworf clean thru on the right but a questionable offside call.

Fernandez almost scores an OG after a header back to Kovar where Kovar slips.

Then a coming together after Mejbri is fouled with the ball out of play. Nothing but handbags.

Such an awful game. No rhythm. Awful camera angle. United underwhelming, no focus on their football just handbags. Start and stop. Annoying. Please, stop conceding freekicks. I will get brain damage soon!!

Scraps!

Lads just yanking out of Mejbri’s hair.

And we get the player sent off. Absolutely ridiculous.

And fecking hell have they never heard of showing a replay? Production quality is straight up fecking trash.

We should just walk off the pitch one of these days. Results mean nothing anyway so just take the forfeit until they can learn how to ref and control the game properly.

Hannibal was tackled well after the whistle while standing off the pitch and nothing was done. (Same previously happened to Chong who got seriously hurt from it) He had his hair and neck grabbed and pulled and nothing. Just say enough is enough and walk off the pitch and refuse to play because all that’s gonna happen is kids get hurt.

Played in their hands with it being a scrappy and feisty game. We just couldn't focus on our play. I think it was the worst performance of the season, despite losing 6-1 to Chelsea and other poor results. No one was good today. I think Galbraith has done his at U23 level, seems frustrated, and needs to play and grow in the senior game now. They'll all learn from this. Also, Svidersky should play in midfield as he gives more stability. I think the McCann and Galbraith combo leaks too much centrally.

I feel really sorry for Mejbri. It seems that almost every week the opponents try to kick him out of the game, sometimes succeeding. Even my own team resorted to it.
Hope he gets some better protection as he moves up in grade or he may not be able to fulfill his talent though no fault of his own.

From what I gather you can’t expect kids to play well when refs give bonus points to violent adults for kicking lumps out of them and handing out handbags in pools of mud, and particularily not when the camera angle is useless and the production can’t even be bothered to show replays of the above mentioned unwatcable mess.

But how did Shoretire play?

Funny that Casey Stoney was on Sky earlier complaining about the treatment Lauren James got; foul after foul but no action taken. It appears that refs don’t give a shit because it Utd

The treatment of Hannibal at U23 level is absolute fecking disgrace, whether he's ready for the first team or not we need to get him out of that league before he gets seriously hurt. Honestly, the referees should be ashamed of themselves, it's imcompetence to the point of negligence. Honestly, It might not even just be incompetence, I'm just going to come out and say it but the majority of referees at that level are actively biased against United.

Galbraith I think and he got a red for something off camera just before this
I don't like Mejbri fighting those cnuts alone and our lads should back him in these kind of situation. Refs are total disgrace by the way.

I've not watched the women's team and neither have this game, but it doesn't surprise me. Also these Spurs team has a reputation of being total dickheads if I remember correctly, weren't they involved in the Drinkwater incident too?
