Man City 0-0 Saints - Match Thread

[Patrick Bateman]

F**k off. How is that not a penalty? No attempt to get the ball, ridiculous. My goodwill with football is waning again ...

Never gets overturned if that's the opposite end.

Yep. We all know it. 

[obelisk]

A free kick anywhere on the park. That is cheating by the ref.

[LGTL]

It’s never checked at the other end, let alone overturned. 

[warsash saint]

Jon Moss being Jon f**king Moss!

[Sheaf Saint]

What the fuck has Moss seen on the replay to change his mind? It was a blatant foul and a penalty. He's just succumbed to the City players' whingeing.

Absolutely pathetic, spineless prick.

[hans gruber]

Wow

how can you overturn that? He has been taken out deadset….

 

bullshit cheating all day long

Incredible.

Would that have been overturned if it were in Saints penalty box?

Of course not 

[aintforever]

Cheating cunts.

The whole TV by the pitch is pointless, just gives the ref an opportunity to bottle it.

[hackedoff]

Said it many times,the Premier league is warped and VAR is the handy tool to maintain it.

[Chapel End]

Absolute fucking joke....

It wasn’t a pen but not really sure what Armstrong is doing

Are you for real ?

There needs to be recourse for things like this. They can't be allowed to keep getting away with it.

[adrian lord]

My dwindling interest in the Premier League has taken a step-wise downturn today. 

[Suhari]

Throw Broja on.

Give them something else to think about.

[dobbo]

Walker will now win it for them now, you just know it, hope I’m wrong

[ChrisPY]

Starting to like the idea of the Super League. They can fuck off and take the ‘elite’ English refs with them.

[Chapel End]

Wish the "big" clubs had fucked off to super league

[obelisk]

And now ref stops play when Saints were in on goal FFS!

[Saint_Jonny]

We've been scammed there. Fucking joke.

[sydney_saint]

I wonder if there is a single person anywhere who thinks that it were Saints who did that challenge (or any other smaller EPL club) that it would get overturned? Fuck this league

[Viking Saint]

Clinton Morrison on Sky saying its a stonewall penalty and cannot believe its not been given

[Saint Fan CaM]

Well that's the premier league rolled up into one fucking moment in time. Jon Moss is a cheating twat who is clearly in the pocket of someone. Just had a gutful of it.

[Chapel End]

And now the prick blows up instead of playing advange

[niceandfriendly]

Oh my god f*ck off Jon Moss. Play on. This is such clear cheating.

This.

[Mallagroth]

I clearly don’t understand the rules. I thought if a tackle that takes out the opposition player is made, the first touch has to be the ball or it is a foul and free kick to opposition… let alone it being a clear and obvious goal scoring opportunity.

[OttawaSaint]

Hmm just seen another replay. Ref awarded pen I don’t see how he can overturn it. Fucking cheated by the ref/VAR.

[Dorchester Saint]

Moss is a fucking coward!!!

[Sir Ralph]

Absolutely robbed. So Walker won the challenge legally?

[Chapel End]

Moss has got to be on wages

[niceandfriendly]

Let's just say this, f**king WELL PLAYED LADS. Proud of you today. You're out playing the Champions who have the ref AND var on their side.

Proud.

[Saints foreva]

Armstrong looked like he was going down before the contact. Saying that, I don't think it gets overturned if it's up the other end. 

[niceandfriendly]

HE GOES INTO THE F*CKING BACK OF HIM

[Sheaf Saint]

This. The City players put enough pressure on him to convince him to change his mind. The VAR ref shouldn't have given him the opportunity because it was blatantly a penalty. 

It's fucking corrupt is what it is.

Especially as it took so long for VAR to overturn it, so not a clear and obvious error.

THIS all fuckin day long

 

[Chapel End]

Got 1 nil city all over this now

[StrangelyBrown]

Perhaps Moss wanted to make sure some Abu Dhabi dollars we're in his account before over ruling?

[Saint Matty 76]

I literally cannot believe it.

For it to be "clear and obvious" it has to be a dive or Walker to have won the ball? He sticks a leg out and lands on top of Armstrong stopping him turning and having a chance? That's fucking outrageous.

[niceandfriendly]

Why didn't they show that angle we just saw? Absolutely cheated it's not even funny

[Maya's Dad]

whats the fucking point of these on field replays when they just show them what they want to see. anything can be made to look good from the right angle. its a pen all day long

[Chapel End]

Skates 2 down now 🤣

[OttawaSaint]

What’s the point in the EPL if even when a big team is off colour, the ref steps in to help them?

They already  have more value on the bench than we’d get to spend in 5 years but no, the refs have to protect the product.

[niceandfriendly]

I've never been so fuming for a decision again Saints

[Chapel End]

And now Sterling tries to cheat

[HarvSFC]

Any bookings for the diving yet? That’s twice.

The point of the EPL is that the big teams with the most money and biggest sponsors and audiences must stay at the top. Sadly we are the cannon fodder for the big pantomime. Now you’re all starting to realise

[Ed Rooney]

Armstrong was just about to fucking shoot and Walker can flying into the side  of him, what justification is there to over rule that… absolute joke
