So the FA have came out and said 3 decisions last night were wrong, Spuds not getting a penalty, Sheff Utd`s penalty and surprise surprise, that joke of a penalty for Man Utd. I`m sure Villa, who now are almost certain to be relegated, are really pleased to hear that.

At least 1/3 sound right to me.

I don't think the FA have come out and stated that, I think its Dermot Gallagher who told BBC that all 3 decisions were incorrect (I could be wrong)

But what are they going to do about it? They came out and said they got a decision wrong against us a few months back and nothing changed, it was forgotten about the after a few days.

like Dion Dublin said in that clip earlier, that decision could effect Aston Villa financially 

 

 

 

Make of that what you will!

Of course it will, it completely changed the game also. Villa were actually smashing them and looked the most likely to score until that penalty, after that they gave up. 

That referee has gave United 8 penalties this season in 9 games, no joke, I just checked that stat up, Moss seriously needs investigating or he needs to stop refereeing United games. Did VAR even check that penalty decision? I've seen them go over decisions that are so obvious, yet they couldn't care less with this one.

FFP needs to be scrapped, it's done nothing but enable corruption and keep the powerful clubs powerful. 

City get to spend over 200 million a season without having to even sell a player, it's outrageous.

It's not the spending that's the issue for me. It's the blatant cheating to get around the rules of the competition, as exposed in the emails revealed by the German magazine Der Spiegel.

A Special Construct

The documents provided by Football Leaks made it clear just how brazen Manchester City was willing to be. Beginning in 2012, the team devised a special construct to systematically circumvent FFP rules, with team executives outsourcing costs to other companies, effectively hiding them from UEFA auditors. If they spent more during a season than intended, they had their sponsors from Abu Dhabi increase the fees they paid to the team andbackdated the money transfers to the beginning of the season.

 

I hope they get exonerated and the UEFA cartel is dismantled,  ffp was only ever about making sure the closed shop stayed closed.

If City are exonerated, FFP is pretty much dead and buried.

Should replace ours and our back 4 with the guys from Burnely.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Robertson’s crazy curled header goal.  I’ve seen that of course via one’s foot, but that is the first time I’ve seen someone curl a header into the corner of the goal (or anywhere else for that matter).  To me, that was an incredible goal.

Wolves are now 5 points behind us with that win. Would not be surprised at all if they beat us to 5th in the scenario of us losing to liverpool and them last game.

How the f**k can var give that as handball...

Villa not getting the penalty with the technique they learned from united

Nuts that Var can overturn that pen but not the Manure one. Neither should have been given.

I guess the ref and VAR refs are not the same... and it is not Manure playing, so easy call to overturn the penalty, and rightly so.

Guessing Don Carlo is probably as happy today as Frank was yesterday lol

Not really. As RMH said United are not involved. Means they can actually look at the incident rather than pretend to and then say "yup pen for United, here is your payment".

f**k me 2020
 

 

Always amazed me how any football "fan" could post something like that, when they would then go on to support their team, which most likely has black players in it.
