They needed a lot of help so they got it
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Just think how many Norwich needed then.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The authorities don't care for Norwich. They need Utd toward the top hence the two outsiders challenging the party have had the most calls against, Wolves and Sheff UTd.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Which authorities? Thr PL don't care where we finish and i don't see uefa bribing the refs.
Actually its farcical and only a fool believe it

How?

So any on field ref decision or VAR review for Man Utd = corruption
Any decision against Man Utd = great work, about time, silence

'Good to see Ole call out others in trying to push a narrative. It seems to be the case with us that when decisions go for us, there is a conspiracy but when they're against us, they're ignored and forgotten.'

---------------------------------------------------------------

TBF That is often the case for many of the big teams. But seems to be magnified into a scandal when it involves us.

When it does go against us, it's sometimes an excuse of balanced fairness in play.

I just hope that the ref doesn't become hesitant in making the RIGHT calls on Sunday or any future games.

Why Frank needed to bring the intergrity of the game into forefront, is unlike Frank. It's not as if his beloved club are angels too. But we have a match on Sunday, and just hope for a good game and our accustomed penalty before the hour mark.

Didn’t see many complain when Romeu got away with trying to injure Greenwood.

Nothing wrong with what either manager has said.

indeed. i did however see comments like this:

Neville screaming for a red for a slightly high glancing tackle

put his foot down in good time, only grazing his ankle.

Ole having a nice little nibble. Easy.

I not sure why people don't think this is unlike Frank. He had a go at Bielsa for something last year.

Silence when we get a decision against us. The agenda is clear.
----------------------------------------------------------------------


I've just read the ESPN article.

The only 2 decisions to go against United are the reversals for the ludicrous offside call against Aubameyang and the undeserved penalty against Spurs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Which is why the stats are absolutely meaningless

It sometimes kind of feels like moments of surreal mocking parodies whenever decisions go against us

At the end of the day, if our team plays/does good - we'll say so.

If they play bad/bad sportsmanship - we'll call them out on it.

Same with incorrect referee decisions if it's clear and obvious.

When everyone from Lampard and Jose to lowly plums like Inky are crying about UTD being favoured by the officials, it speaks volume about our upward trajectory

i know that on here any response to a silly comment is greeted with a "bite", "chomp", "rattled", or "fuming" etc, but i don't think it actually works like that in the real, grown-up world.

I see Norwich have had two players get sent off.

*tumbleweed moment*

I think all Lampard is saying is we're playing a side that's been given 25 penalties in their last 74 Prem games so don't dive in and Ole has had a good chomp defending his side. That's about it.

They wouldn't have got sent off if they played against us.

They dont control VAR the way utd do


Is what fat Frank might say

posted on 18/7/20

The funny thing is, no one can say any of the decisions we're unquestionably wrong. In fact, I doubt anything would have been made about it if the same decisions went against us by the press and opposition managers and fans.

Jose is just peed off as Ole is doing a good job and making look dated. Frank is trying to influence the ref and get an advantage in the next game as he's lost 3 times to United this season already.

I guess after having a lumbersome attack for a long while and then switching it up to a more frigtening and fluid one has caught some off guard.

Hence why penalties awarded to us has increased.

Hoever, on Sunday the lineup will likely be changed to a more sub standard one compared to the normal service.

I mean Ole has been clearly trying to wind people up by saying every wrong decision that’s gone your way was correct, now he’s having a bit of a strop because someone has had a little dig back

I think we've actually blown our Sancho budget on VAR. Matth's going to be p!55ed off about this.

let's be honest, the people droning on about this don't care one bit whether the decisions were right or wrong, and would happily argue that our penalty against brugges for handball was "corruption" if it suited them.

fine, if you want to turn the whole world into digs/wums/bites/nibbles/chomps then have at it, plenty of material out there for you no doubt.

The bruno one you’d have to stretch to the extreme to say that wasn’t very very fortunate and a very bad decision. i think you are wrong, if that had been Liverpool or city then yes, fuss would have been made. Likes of Burnley no fuss as no one gives a crap about.
