UTd under Fergie is there for all to see........incredible that even Chelsea fans deny the obvious sh*t we see every game.

Come on Leicester!

Pity Spuds just scored.

They're not favoring the team over Chelsea. 

I agree with this, but there is one thing I have always said, I think it's easier to give a decision in favour of other teams than it is to us. It all comes down to media bias and influence. Get a decision wrong against Chelsea, and nobody but Chelsea fans are going to complain about it. Get a decision wrong against United or Liverpool and it's a totally different reaction, you will have the media, radio and football pundits talking about the mistake and putting pressure on the F.A and the refs. The fact is, teams like Liverpool, Arsenal and Man United have a lot of media influence, and I really do think it effects decision making by the refs and even the F.A at times. 

Just remember the Costa crimes stuff. The F.A tend to only get involved and ban players once the media have had their say. I remember the game against Burnley where Barnes could have seriously injured both Matic, Ivanovic and Zouma, the ref let him get away with it and the F.A and media did too.

Don't you just hate that prick Alle

offside for spuds 2nd?

Sad thing is, looking at their fixtures over December and early Jan against the fixtures of the other top sides..they could come out the other end on top of the league

Tottenham have been lucky tonight, if Leicester had a finishing touch, they would have got a draw at least.

What does that tell us about the refs and FA? That none of them have any integrity or want the best for the game. Needs sacking if its anything like that.

Never a dull season with Chelsea, mate.

Was last season that bad that you forgot it happened?

Nope, we had our moments. You can't say the opener match against Burnley or Bournemouth were dull. We can lose against Wolves and then go on and beat City. And I'm dreading the trip to Brighton on Sunday... But always fun following the Chels!

Too close to call. Impossible for the assistant to be certain, so onside was the correct call.

Rubbish, there are harder offside calls than that which are usually called more often than not. 

The camera angle isn't doing it justice, but if you put it level you can see that Ali is half a yard offside.

Not so sure if the off-side is being judged against the black defender no.5 (I think) versus the White one No.6.  If the former it is very close.

looks off to me, but because of no VAR in the EPL nothing done - btw the FA VAR crew would probably rule that #20 was on because his English

I have to share this goal here because it should be admire by all

 

How the f**k did that linesman miss the offside for Everton's goal. Terrible refereeing decisions again.

Indeed. Will he give the money to his dog to look after?

I gotta admit, the first thing that came to mind when I heard he had won I'm a Celeb was that Tottenham would probably like to make a DVD of it 

Nice of Barca to field their second team for spurs.....Inter must be livid.

It was obvious they would. I can see both Spurs and Liverpool going through.
