They didnt cheat the ref did. I think they defended so well in the last 20 mins, it was up to us to score
Well come on guys. We were awarded a penalty, so what do you expect our players to say? "hey ref, you were wrong there, don't give us that penalty" Many teams have been awarded many dubious decisions, and you guys had a fair few against us in this game. In fact, I'm sure that was the only positive decision we had for us. Rooney could have seen a yellow or worse for when he clearly kicked Coloccini while he was on the floor, but Ben Arfa got the yellow Just accept it. We had good chances and so did you guys, but we defended very well and probably deserved a draw by the end of it. We scored via penalty, and you guys scored by Saylor's clearance bouncing off Hernandez. The refs decisions evened themselves out as the game progressed.
Give it up, these things happens every week all over the country but because it's not Man Utd it's happening too no-one cares. Don't understand why SOME (not all, most are fine) Man Utd fans feel that it's their God-given right not to get dodgy decisions go against them sometimes. Rooney could have seen red, Evra could have conceded a penalty for his handball in the first-half I think the way we played and defended today we deserved a point, but sadly because we got the goal by dubious means this will be forgotten and, even though we've now been "tested" people will say we only got through it by a dubious goal when we did enough to get a point anyway. Besides, your goal was lucky as anything!
Mostly agree, I thought your defending was superb towards the end, I'm not sure how well you would have coped if we had started battering you earlier, but all in all fantastic team spirit
You did not deserve a draw because it was never a penalty. Sorry. Yes you defended well but you still conceded and got a draw because of a penalty that never should have been given. You didn't deserve it.
Newcastle were cheated yes. Rooney should have been sent off for kicking out at Coloccini, or did all the Manure ****ed fans in their rose tinted blinkered glasses miss that one?
I'm not sure we did tbh, ****ing terrible finishing all round, they need a ****ing wake up call and we need a new player asap
Ben Arfa is a ****ing cheat and the FA and refs are a ****ing disgrace. ****ty have obviously paid them all off kind of sad when you think about it. All that money spent on players and they still have to buy the officials just to overtake us
Whilst I agree it was shocking, we have all be at the end of them, besides give us credit we played well, although you threw the kitchen sink at us near the end...!
This is the pettiest thing I have ever read. To suggest that in order to get points in football you must have a clean, wholesome 90 minutes with goals that must be scored Barcelona-style is just daft. What about deflected goals then? They don't deserve to count either because they aren't going in until they hit someone's leg. Imagine the amount of dubious goals you lot have scored over the years, afterwards did you go "We didn't deserve that win because we didn't score the goal in the correct manner?" It wasn't a penalty but at least give us an ounce of credit for the way we defended second-half?
and United players did the usual hog around the ref in the hope of a change of decision, he should have booked all you ****ers
