Even though I'm in a great mood I can't let this cheating fecker off.

Firstly, the yellow card that he gave to Tevez which should've been a clear penalty, even Buzzer said there must be something wrong if he can't see that from 10 feet away.

Then there was the clear obstruction on Joe Hart that was very similar to what happened to De Gea at Wigan but there was adjudged to be a foul and the goal was disallowed.

He had no choice to give up after a while but I'm sure he did his master proud for his efforts.

Did his best to keep us down and on another day may have succeeded. The stats show a much closer game than the picture painted by the scoreline and had it still been 2-1 with 10 minutes left he would of kept us in our half looking for the equaliser. No doubt about it.

Cheating cunt.

I was screaming at him and about him in that first half.Shocking decision not to give a pen.

It looked like he was going to wander on with play then he stopped the game to book him.I can only assume Tevez either appealed or looked at him in the wrong way and it incensed him to get the yellow out.I though the Aguero one was a pen as well and the commentator (even tho a red sympathiser) just about said what I tought.Outside the area it's a foul all day long.

The weird one though was when Holt did an outrageous dive which Foy clearly saw but thought it wasnt worth a yellow. Not in the box I suppose.

I watched over the net, and the feed wasn't good. In real time I thought Tevez had made a meal of it.

Obviously the replay showed different, and if the game had remained close for the full 90, and a similar passage of play had occured, we could have lost Tevez for a game or two in the run in.

That's what made my mind up about him not just being incontinent but an out-and-out cheat. Holt clearly dived to get a freekick in a dangerous area yet Foy, who first looked as though he was going to give a yellow, then just turned and toddled off.

You can understand why some of our players heads dropped a bit after all the decisions that have gone against us, including those given to United. The likes of Dave Silva getting kicked to hell (or elbowed in the case of the Stoke game) yet no action being taken must have an affect on the players.

To be honest, I think the same. The fact both were wearing black boots, and the position Foy was in, didn't make it the easiest of calls, and Tevez seemed to fall a split-second after any contact could have been made. Personally, I think it was a tougher call to make than the replays suggest, but shouldn't have resulted in a booking.

I think Foy must've been watching it through the same stream as you two.

Think it is time Bob starts moaning to the F.A. about certain refs like Taggart does.

Hehe, I watched on TV, and didn't initially think it was a dive. However, although Foy was close, I don't think he could see the tread 100%.

Foy was in a great,fairly perfect position and about 10 yards away.If he cant see it and get it right from there he shouldn't be reffing.

booked carlos but let get holt get away with a blatant one... amazed we ended the game with eleven on the pitch, he was itching to show one of our boys a red today....

If he doesn't see the foul he can't give a penalty. At the same time he can't book Carlo for diving if he isn't sure he dived. I've no problem with no penalty but the booking was a terrible decision. The first of many as it happened.

On the money there pal. He didn't see the foul which has been proven so therefore cannot state that it's a dive. I do wonder if they have chance to see the decisions at half-time and realise what they hve done, or realise what we have seen?

Just a point of note, Foy gave us 2 yellows for 5 fouls and Norwich 1 yellow for 10 fouls. Make of that what you will.

i'm not really sure he is, in fact, "reffing." Did you ever see V or Invasion of the Body Snatchers? He's not put on this earth to ref a footy match, he's here to stop us from fulfilling our destiny and to destroy us. But probably not to fuck our women...just an observation.

these guys should have to explain their decisions even if its 24 hours after a game

Am sure this ref has a dislike for us. He's a snidey shite and one to watch

He is yet another WHORE from Ferguscums harem

Normally a sensible and even handed watcher I was near to being ejected over the cheating coont!

That kind of thing is 'par for the course' in City games but not Utd games. I picked out some random games & put the stats on here a while back.

Or at least our number of fouls compared to possession means we must pretty much commit GBH every time we lose the ball in some games.
