brfcshabba Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Wigan down 2-0. This a nail in their relegation coffin?

BangkokRover Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Gone 4am and I am still loving this Blackpool v United game. God I am going to be ###### in the gym in the morning
Tim Southampton Rover Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Man Utd score their 3rd. I bet you any money Holloway mentions the penalty decision (or lack of one!) changed the game in United favour.
BangkokRover Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I hope he does it was a shocking decision not to give the pen. 10 mins added on
HemelRover Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 The commentator on ESPN just, in all seriousness, queried if the referees assistants electronic board could show double figures as there is due to be 10 minutes of stoppage time due to the Rafeal injury. This would be the same board that the referees assistant uses to display players squad numbers for subsitutions. I mean, seriously, how do they get their jobs?

Tim Southampton Rover Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 At least he didn't say something sexist!
BangkokRover Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Wigan got it back to 2-1 and there is 4 mins extra time. FT Wigan 1 Villa 2
brian_gallagher85 Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Man Utd score their 3rd. I bet you any money Holloway mentions the penalty decision (or lack of one!) changed the game in United favour. I hope so too as it completely changed the game along with most of Waltons calls tonight. Don't even get me started on the ESPN/ITV commentary setup...
braddock Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Appalling decision not to give the penalty. I really don't rate Rafael, though in fairness to him he does get away with them. Shouldn't do though.
XLM Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Nice to know United still get the decisions. Some things never change. One of the worst I've ever seen.
Eddie Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Get a grip. It's not even as bad as West Brom not being given the penalty on Sunday.
Roost Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Get a grip. It's not even as bad as West Brom not being given the penalty on Sunday. What penalty?
XLM Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Get a grip. It's not even as bad as West Brom not being given the penalty on Sunday. Course it was. They were both penalties. Tonight's was worse. I believe the WBA one was a genuine mistake by Clattenburg. There was no way in hell the penalty tonight could have been missed. I'm not trying to make a conspiracy theory, just United are favoured. They have been since the Premier League started.
Eddie Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I will always believe that officials can be swayed by home fans, but I very much doubt that there is a single ref in the premier league who is genuinely biased or favours certain sides.

brian_gallagher85 Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I believe that tonight was Waltons 19th match in charge of a United game...they've won all 19
Eddie Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I believe that tonight was Waltons 19th match in charge of a United game...they've won all 19 ...they do win most of their matches.
Commondore Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 You could say the same about Blackburn, makes no odds as all the players live in Manchester or Cheshire- same applies for a Wigan player, shirley? ...and I'm sure a lot of those players have the same qualms as Diamé, but are smart enough not to talk about it in interviews.
Backroom DE. Posted January 26, 2011 Backroom Posted January 26, 2011 Surely it's better for us that United beat Blackpool?
Rovermatt Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Just checked the table. You are indeed correct.
