Was just about to have a rant about Welbeck and he goes and scores. Villa are woeful.

But that website isn't providing definitive, argument ending information. It's opinion based, and I don't believe it incorporates all things. It's one thing getting a dodgy penalty or an offside goal against you when you're 2/3 up, but United get the big ones at 0-0 or 2-1 down etc. Those are the ones that affect points totals at the end of the season.

deary deary me

[King Gizzard]

The only thing AMc is suppose to be good at, defending, and this has been our worst season for that

Yeah, I agree with that and there's nothing that can definitely prove how a game would have turned out had every decision been correct. I just think, generally, football fans are quick to kick up a fuss when a decision goes United's way and are happy to ignore it when things don't.

Nobody is saying that United get every decision, because they don't. But when they're struggling, they seem to get an extra helping held. Penalties that don't exist, loads of free kicks around the box from blatant dives, refereeing lenience etc.

It's a conspiracy guys.

Stoke 4th from Bottom in the 'real' table. Interesting but not surprising. Stoke maybe need to change their style of play and become a but more fluent. It would seem some refs cant handle the sheer number of decisions they have to make in their games.

I don't think referees consciously go out and give more decisions the way of big clubs but in reality it might be an influencer, especially if they're the home team

The real conspiracy, is that if Ferguson criticises a ref, they won't be back at the toilet for a long while, so you could say it was in the interests of refs not to get on his bad side.

Happy about that win, despite the penalty incident that was harsh on Villa. Ashley Young has got a right slating on Twitter by the United fans, not that it will make a difference but he needs to cut the theatrics out..

Slighest bit of contact there but teams that counter very quick on attacks e.g. Barcelona get quite a few penalties that way because the defender is drawn into the tackle to stop the opposition scoring.

Were there people disrupting the silence there, I didn't notice

[bbfan1991]

Looks like it, disgraceful.

[GiRTh]

Kalou preferred to Torres?

[MTVN]

Might be wanting Torres to be fully fit for Barca

WHy bother? They're not gonna win.

[MTVN]

Probably not, no I think Torres is pretty important to any chance they've got though, he always did well against them for Atletico and I think Di Matteo would be right to prioritise the Barca game, however unlikely it is that they'll win

He's playing well ATM so I suppose you're right. I just think its more likely they'll win the FA cup. They dont have much chance in the ECL cuz even if they beat Barca they'll wont beat Bayern or Real Madrid.
