The reaction of the Mancs when we had a couple dodgy ref decisions in our favour was laughable. Since then we have been getting the bad decisions and both United and City getting all the soft decisions, City in particular. Three soft pens against Bournemouth, West Ham and Swansea and two offside goals vs Watford and Swansea. They have gone quiet now.
Below was last season report. I can't wait for this season report and VAR for next season.

I have mentioned this in few articles today. They all screamed conspiracy etc when we got favourable decisions earlier this season. All gone quiet now though.
In today game thre ref saw a penalty that did not happen. Same ref that managed to miss the foul on Allison versus Burnley. How does this guy still get games to ref!

The ref was exactly at the same position for both almost identical pen incidents but took two different decisions. The linesman gave the Swansea pen and not the ref but the ref couldn't wait to give City the penalty. In second incident the linesman didn't raise his flag. The linesman was correct in both becuase he was best positioned while the ref had players blocking his views.

Yes not surprised. But some teams like Bournemouth and Palace seem they've had more. Do you have the full PL teams list?

City didn't get a penalty at Bournemouth. They won that game holding Bournemouth to zero shots on goal, zero corners and then taking one of the plethora of chances they created. Very tight game.
Just sayin.
West Ham was soft but

Don't know what happened at the end of that post.

I think we got twelve penalties because of fouls in the box against our players, that's how I see it anyway.
Are the refs supposed to look at that list before games so there can be an equal amount each at the end of the season.

And on the flip side, how many penalties given against ManU at Old Trafford compared to other grounds?? It is a well know favorable stat that goes back years.
