Think cpr was passing on that the commentators were cirticising Arsenal's players tbf. Heh at his use of "experts" though.

Don't listen to any commentary nowadays, certainly wouldn't make any decision about play until I've watched stuff myself. Everything has become ridiculously tabloid, radio and SkySports has become a joke.

You know, I have to concede - maybe it was harder to call the offside than I initially thought. Apparently Ancelotti didn't see it either.
Really? Very gracious of you, but looked offside all the way from my couch, tbh.

Might have to hand your United fan card back if you're going to be reasonable in defeat tho. Oh wait, here's Rose to restore one's faith...

Not a handball btw. Hits his stomach and maybe elbow.
Can I just clarify something...

Are people arguing that it wasn't a handball because it hit his arm, not his hand?

Really? REALLY?
:laugh:

Yeah, I really can't add anything else to that.

Grrrrr

So sick of Arsenal's ****ing whinging
Pot, kettle, etc...

So ****ing typical that the CDMs get a late late goal.

Would someone polish off the dwindling hopes of these teams just for once?

I thought he was doing irony, TBH, his other stuff today has certainly shown a typically Man U magnanimity:)

They're Man Utd fans. Are you surprised?

Whenever it gets to the stage when you just might start liking someone less than the Evil Empire (eg Citeh, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool... all with such good cases), the United fanboys remind you that you'd even want them to lose at Home Park. We had a massively generous penalty against Walsall last week and I am happy to admit that. It's called reason: decisions do actually go your way sometimes, believe it or not.

Shall we play "list the questionable decisions that United have benefited from and watch Xavier explain why they were correct"?

I'll start - Exhibit A is Roy Carroll.

Anyway, real football - good day for all the CW division three clubs today - but I'd rather it hadn't been and that we were easing away from things. I should have been at SJP yesterday but was sitting in traffic on the M5 instead: hopefully we'll be just as good a week today against Orient, make it eight unbeaten, and stay up...

Lot of the United fans on here need to grow a set, Chelsea scored two, we scored one, that means we lost.

Ftr, I didn't think the challenge on Park or Neviller's shoulder-barge were penalties. Seems I'm in a smaller minority than I thought. The ref did fine- can't see how he could have been expected to see Macheda's handball considering it took us all four or five replays, and the offside goal was the linesman's boob.

But this was a terrible performance from United. I think it's the worst I've ever seen the Neviller play. Back in November we completely outplayed them away from home and lost to a goal that should have been disallowed for at least three reasons, but today we just went down to a better team.

Instead of Saturday lunchtime, football should be moved to Friday or Saturday nights to accomodate TV.

Discuss.

Was horrifically officiated this match, bit of an embarrassment for the "biggest match" of the "biggest league in the world" .

Dean was always a crap choice.................
Yeah, but all refs who referee in the "big leagues" are automatically better than those who ply their trade in "small leagues" 8-)

Didn't even comment on performance or what was a worthy result TBH. Just it's hardly likely a handball will be given in that situation.
