    Good on him, we’ve been getting jobbed all season and now because of these incompetent arseholes we may be missing 2 senior centre backs for a key game on Saturday

    Love this from Carrick, much MUCH needed. But I’m afraid tomorrow we’ll be hearing about Maguire’s ban getting extended.

    He’s not wrong. Violent conduct my arse, Martinez has tickled his hair tie, no violence whatsoever. Yoro getting an arm in the face is much more violent

  4. I’m glad we are finally calling out the shit decisions we get, feels like for the last couple of years we’ve stopped coming out and saying stuff. Bout time they called out the crap

    Good to see, it was abysmal reffing.

    I’ve also noticed that the toy throw out of the prammers are in every other thread tonight saying how they knew Carrick was never the man and we’re an absolute joke.

    Estoy muy cansado, Robbie. A season is more than one game. Where were we last season? We dropped three points and are still third.

  6. So he should, getting sick of complaining about bloody refs being crap every game myself

    All well & good going off on the refs, but lets not distract from how wrong he got the game today.

    Gone full circle back to Ole- counter attack hero ball, the very thing we tried moving on from with ETH & Amorim.

    United were begging to concede from the first minute (i actually said exactly this on the match thread before Neville said it on sky). Ref or no ref, game was there to lose right away.

    I cant even be particularly mad at the ref. Licha for example getting a red is due to where his finger is hooked regardless of ‘force’. If it was his shirt itd be a yellow at worse, or more likely just a word. Likewise Cunha at best felt the slightest of grazes on the leg. Playing for set pieces is one thing, but throwing yourself to ground is always going to be a yellow. Some other contentious calls/lack of calls i suppose, but nothing so significant it impacted the outcome in any tangible way. If anything United woke up a bit when down a man.

    Hate to say it, but fair play Leeds. Easily could have been 3 or 4 & itd be deserved. Lammens single handedly sparing some blushes this evening.

    As per fa rules: “Violent conduct is when a player uses or attempts to use excessive force or brutality against an opponent when not challenging for the ball”.

    A) it was not excessive force or brutality
    B) he was challenging for the ball.

    Not a red card. Simple as.

    Managers should have a guy analysing the rules and be ready to quote them directly during post match press conferences and say with authority that the decision was wrong according to the rules. Call them out as they always retreat behind the “letter of the law” in these cases
