The reversal of the pelanty awarded at Burnley !!!Originally Posted by simonp_ccfc
Unfortunately, that was the correct decision.
Was it bollox, !!!!!!!
How come the defender looked so guilty ????
They showed it on ref watch and explained it. Can't recall why it was correct, but it was.
Seen that myself and all he said was “he could see why he reversed it”, he never said it was the correct decision !!!!!
It was handball, the same as what was given AGAINST us at home to Newcastle
City could have had 2 or 3 penalties in that game.
That though was the right decision
See post on page 1That though was the right decision
No it was not wrong, in fact we should have had 2 pelantys
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the comedy penalty at Old Trafford last weekend. Can you imagine Warnock's reaction if a penalty like that had been given against City in a game that had something riding on it? Oddly, he didn't complain about the quality of the officials at Manchester.
Oh come on!! we all know it doesn't count if it's in our favour. It's just luck then!!
The point is that the dodgy penalty at Old Trafford, the, marginally, offside winner against Brighton and Gunnar getting away with the sort of penalty area wrestling hold that are commonly committed on our captain against Chelsea were the only occasions where a major match affecting decision went in our favour - the only time we had the "rub of the green" (the reversed penalty against Huddersfield should not be counted because it ensured that the correct decision was made).Oh come on!! we all know it doesn't count if it's in our favour. It's just luck then!!
Off the top of my head, I can think of a dubious penalties against us for Bournemouth and Newcastle, a very strong claim for one at Everton, an obvious one against Watford, a whole host of decisions which went Chelsea's way, what happened at Burnley and fouls on Morrison in the penalty area by Liverpool and Fulham players as instances where we had justifiable complaint against the performance of match officials.
Are you serious?!? The correct decision indeed.....
How about the blatant penalty that wasn't given against Southampton?
Weren't Arsenal denied a clear penalty at the Emirates before half-time?
Yes, it was the correct decision, the initial contact was made outside the penalty area as I recall. As for the other incidents you mention I cannot recall them, but are you seriously claiming that decisions have evened themselves out over the course of the season as the cliche goes as far as City are concerned because, believe me, they haven't.

No, I'd say City definitely had the rough end of the stick on balance, but a lot of the decisions people (including yourself) now claim were certain fouls/penalties were actually debatable at best, while a number of similar incidents immediately got forgotten because they went in Cardiff's favour. You've proved that in this thread. For instance, even Warnock said Arsenal should have had a first half penalty!
As for the Huddersfield thing, you're having a laugh. Every pundit who reviewed it on TV thought it was a blatant penalty, and there's a reason for that. City definitely got away with one there.
Nothing odd about it.
He couldn't afford to.
The ref knew we were down by then, would never have been awarded if we had needed 3 points to stay up!!!
It was like a token gesture wasn’t it? Here you are Neil have this one now as we know we’ve ballsed up so often this season, have a win on us at Man Utd for a bit of goodwill....sneaky****ers
