Nothing like a ref to ruin a game!

No it won't

Two footed lunge = red card

If Rio had done what Kompany did United fans would feel just as aggrieved and be moaning of an FA conspiracy and ABU refs etc

Anybody bar deluded United fans could see it was never a red. Lunging on the ball isn't an offence, we had a similar situation with Kalou vs Sorenson a few years back.

Football is a contact sport........apparently.

City were robbed today and anyone that says otherwise needs to get checked into their doctors tomorrow for an emergency appointment

Get head out of own backside and view footage

Its not refs ruining a game that is the issue here at all - its players who make these sorts of challenges for the ball who are aware that they are not allowed. Easy to blame a ref. Kompany robbed his own team. Utd could still affored to put the trafford trundler on as a sub and still win the match

Having now seen the tackle again I think City have right to appeal that red card. If Ferdinand or Jones had made a tackle like that the ref would have waved play on and the pundits would have been creaming themselves.

hmmm saying city were robbed is a bit extreme they were outplayed for the majority of it it was only because of that freekick then yet another goal keeping error from us that made city pile on the pressure. but really is it hard to outrun two pensioners in midfield if you're early twenties ? a denied pen against valencia then straight after 3-2 from a dodgy goal
