Bolton were always going down this year. It's more about building a team to come straight up next year. We scored - nice. But conceding 3 for the first time in a few games shows how much we miss Liam Bridcutt, who is a long term injury from last game. Also fade badly in the last 20 minutes. I think we are still headed in the right direction though.
Nice second goal from Citeh. Beautiful chip from Sterling. Zaha is always either offside and when it comes to losing the ball he just turns around and throws his arm up as opposed to pressing. Textbook Raheem Sterling miss, unmarked, 7 yards out, after 86 minutes.
Jesus, another clear fucking penalty to Man Citeh not awarded in the 63rd minute. Apparently not clear and obvious but it was. The ref missed it, because refs are refs and get big moments wrong, then the VAR team absolutely bottled it. Why fucking bother with VAR? It's an extra layer of more people getting decisions wrong some of the time. It's as random as referees getting it wrong but less honest.
Was up late watching England destroy Oz in the Rugby U, which was nice.
I didn't realise Huddersfield were so low down the table. Some good goals. Not sure about that penalty, though his arm was out but contact seemed very minimal. Didn't realise Downing played for Rovers either.

Holy shit, VAR gets even worse. I just saw the clear penalty Watford were denied at spurs.
And then a Spurs goal is allowed to stand when he uses his upper arm.
Appalling. Absolutely appalling. What is the point?
And then the Burnley disallowed goal. It was practically in the back of the net. And Evans never would have gotten there. Ref didn't even bother looking at it.
So that's, what, four clear incorrect decisions today by VAR. 4 in september that the Prem has admitted to. It's doing well for offsides i guess but big decisions are as hit and miss as they ever were.
Nice to get a win in our centenary fixture. Apparently there’s the chance of middle east investment in Leeds, a contact of Radrizzani. Can’t say it wouldn’t be welcome.
Hate football this weekend after appalling performance of my team yestrdy. I was briefly buoyed by tottscum losing but dropping points was ok. It can only improve if livpl smash mankscum thisaftrnoon. Id take any win but 2 or 3 nil would be nice.
I doubt they'll even need him. The state of Manchester United in recent years is such that I have a near-constant feeling of calm and happiness; they're harmless.
This is how refs help manks. We saw it recently where they fouled someone and ref waved play on and they went up other end and scored. Its happened again in this match. Out and out foul and atkinson has allowed it. What use var if these fuckers cant see it n overturn it?? Great system and our senior ref has cocked it up.
Now a liverpool goal disallowed for barely clipping hand - how can they see one and not the other? Cunts.
Unfortunately the disallowed Liverpool goal was the right decision according to their own stupid interpretation of the rules. However the allowed scum goal was a homer without a doubt. Why do they have the review sector and screen by the pitch if they don’t use it?
Yesterday lunchtime shoulda told me it was gonna be a shit weekend. However that said, cuda been a lot worse. With ref help to get the mank goal and then them sitting back behind the ball, way things were going, it looked a bit bleak but a cruel evil late goal from sub lallama robbed them of 3 points and ruined the manks afternoon. Ha fkn ha. Liverpool ended winning streak but still 1 defeat in 45 games?.
Also, I can't stand that Taff twat for them. Constantly feigning injury and going over like he's been shot. Hateful little shit.
Yes. Noticed what a little shit he was in a couple other prev mank matches. He sure has joined the right club. The one where he got clattered 50 50 and came off worse he actually looked up to see where ref was - then put face down like hed been hit.
Smarmy Mourinho still trying to make it all about himself. He clearly hasn't gotten over Jurgen signing his P45 at Anfield last season. Classless Twat. So glad we never, ever entertained letting him takeover as manager for us.
