You get embarrassed easily? Wow
It’s just pathetic. Every single time they play you have people in here cherry-picking some routine mistake that happens to both sides in every game, and then conjuring conspiracy theories based on it. It’s just so dumb.

Compare the Forest non penalty just now, to the darlings that are Liverpool and Jota diving with a feather touch.

Anyone would think they are our biggest rivals.

Liverpool’s second goal has to be taken back to the foul. How was the Forrest penalty not given by var? The keeper lifted his arm to trip the player. At this point it’s just a joke. Pointless. The refs are using it as they please.

I’m not saying he is targeted but when similiar things go unpunished and not even free kick you got to wonder what is happening. Anyone who watched the game today can’t be serious if they say that Liverpool second goal should stand.
When VAR was brought in the view was it was needed to cancel out human error yet with VAR there is no consistency with the decisions made and errors remain and main error yesterday was to not even watch back on the foul in the build up to the second Liverpool goal.

La Liga.

Greenwood shoots, hits a player on the head and goes wide.

Penalty given.

Replays clearly show no handball. Takes an age to review, referee goes to the screen and all, no penalty and also no corner.

A goal given that shouldn't have been, and their opponents are denied a blatant stonewall penalty. It's such a consistent trend, week after a week, and yet there are still people who think it's "RAWKish" to point it out. You're welcome to reject reality, but that doesn't make reality go away.

What's the difference between what Odegaard did to Soucek there and the foul called on Hojlund on Rodri?

Different week same decisions. How is that yellow for Casemiro.

He really have referees against him. He can't even take two steps before someone giving him freekick, yellow or red.

Classic case of a referee trying to impact the game with a complete imbalance of all the smaller decisions which gives one side a subtle advantage.

Oh I'm sure he's just happy that an advantage was played or something...


Twats don't even try to hide it.
We know how we are treated.

If we didn't lose against ManCity, Arsenal, Crystal Palace and Tottenham because of some wierd referee and VAR decisions we could potentially have 12 p more. That would put us in top 3 right now.

Turned to shite as soon as Villa fans telling him he didn't know what he was doing.

Former Villa and Liverpool player Stephen Warnock desperatly trying to make out Casemiro should have been ruled offside instead of the corner being awarded that led to our goal



Dermot says this is a pen under the current rules

The active/inactive thing is a bit silly. Of course Case impacts the play but then you're basically having to give freekicks for any offside player trying to do anything because it might lead to a goal at some point in the future.

The handball is just a handball, no issues with it being unlucky, still clearly changes the ball's direction.

They're crying about ours being offside. Have they discussed that Liverpool scored a goal from a corner that shouldn't have been?

Still can’t believe more isn’t being made of Mac Aliister’s leg breaker tackle in the lead up to Liverpool’s goal.
Oh wait, it’s Liverpool.

It is all about narrative. Make sure you put doubt in everyone that ManUtd are getting decisions. When we all know that reality is different. Everybody knows how media treat us. If our club is serious about being successful they need to come with some kind of statement about this kind of things.

Why should they? We know by know what media thinks of Liverpool and that they treat them like a fragile vase. And we certainly know by now how many times Liverpool have been lucky with decisions and VAR.

I really don’t understand this. Under what mechanism can this be ruled out? Even then the only person he’s distracting is Varane who gets to it.
strange argument to have. That’s not an easy decision to give without lines either

Old news now and it doesn’t matter anymore, but Lerma on Caicedo seconds before he hit that screamer.

Not the bloke sliding, the other Palace player. Looks like an obvious foul to me.
Aye. A bit weird they didn't pull that one back as it had a direct impact on the goal. Another one where they get called for one team but wouldn't for the other. That was always the case with reffing, mind. But at least back then you didn't have to wait for 3 minutes before you got fecked over.

Because they're morons. It was quite disappointing the hear the commentators refuse to stick their neck out and claim it was a tough one to call.

He just barges into the player with no attempt to get the ball.
Correct, it would probably have been a red card as well for denying a goalscoring oppurtunity.

I thought it was a foul at first but then if you look extra closely at the player who supposedly commits the foul you can just about make out they are actually a liverpool player so nothing in it..
Aye, textbook correct application of the rules, unfortunately. :(
