They make mistakes...and when they do and it go's against us I moan....a lot........ But Tierney, or any other referee's are not engaged in formal organised cheating. IMHO
Fair reply from a fair poster.Others obviously see it differently but that's their right and I wouldn't accuse them of having a totally closed mind.
It’s funny that people think there can’t be systematic corruption in professional sports officiating. It happened in the NBA, I believe it’s happened in world football as well (Maybe Italy or Spain?). Whenever there is money and power involved there exists the opportunity for imperfect humans to become corrupted. It’s sophomoric to assume that there can’t be corruption when there’s not a better explanation for why we get one referee more than other teams or why we are at the blunt end of some of the worst calls that have happened this year in the premier league.
Speaking for myself I have never said I don't believe there can't be systematic corruption....I've always said I need to see impartial evidence of it. Of course you are right there has been numerous instances of corruption in many sports, though I am not aware of any of it ever being aimed against a specific club...again for what motive?... You are also correct in saying we have been at the wrong end of some of the worst calls....as have all the clubs in the league.
I may be wrong , but I don’t recall the two Manc clubs getting the kind of decisions we’ve been getting in fact I would say they have had some very favourable ones .
Well it's one or the other.......Your'e wrong...or you don't recall, All teams get both favourable and unfavourable decisions..
Refs are sh*te, but when you see the likes of Chelsea Diving Club, you must admit they don't always have it easy.Funny thing is Chelsea probably did have a decent shout for a pen, but it's a bit of a boy-who-cried-wolf situation.
That wasn't a pen. Simply was not enough contact. VVD made a half hearted challenge but the Chelsea player went over soon as he felt the slight touch. It wasn't a pen..2 other shouts were blatant dives. Jota was stamped on.
Clear cut penalty you can’t kick a player in the box like that.
How much did you lot pay the ref tonite lads? 😂 Tierney gave you everything, even the 50/50 balls. All though you battered them chavs should have had at least one penalty. He’s probably been threatened before the match and you now have him eating out of your hands. Corrupt my arse.
You lot won’t be complaining about Tierney after that 45 mins.
Except that he didn't kick him. And pens should not be given for slight touches in the box. It's a contact sport.Fouls are given if the contact was excessive. The player was looking to go down and all night Chelsea 'assumed' Tierney would give them something if they fell over convincingly. He's not that stupid.
I'm not taking your obvious bait.I'm just informing you that Tierney knew that Chelsea assumed they'd get a pen if they fell over convincingly. They were wrong and our 'mate' Paul saw right through their 'cunning plan'.
Oh I don't know the baldy c**t could have easily have given Chilwell 2 yellows but saw his arse over the 2nd one.
Wow, had to keep checking he was the ref, but then I kept wanting to punch that smug face of his, even if he did have an ok game for the first time in ages, if ever!
Tierney wasn’t too bad - but the kick from VVD on Nkunku was a penalty
