Did UEFA Get It Right?

[Mase]

Southgate said no pen, what the fuck are these guys watching?

Southgate can't see passed his own bucked teeth. Plus he shits himself with any talk of penalties.

Bank accounts in the British Virgin Islands are the way forward apparently. Although there is always Switzerland if that fails.

nope , believe me , i can see all the accounts.... the refs don't have accounts here. The ref against Bayern last year drove home in a new BMW 5 series station wagon though.

From what i know, a ref has something like 10.000 euros per Chumps League game and 5000 per Europa League. I don't know how are the rates in the Premiership though.

Paul Walsh on SSN says decisions against City were appalling.

Glen Hoddle said Mario handled the ball anyway so it all turned out right in the end.

These things even themselves out over a season etc etc.

Give the Govan piss-can a ring, he'll know.

The same guy said people in wheelchairs are paying for their sins in their last life.

He is an idiot whose opinion isnt worth listening to.

I'll be polite mate and tell you to 'Fuck off', just as I'd do if any of my mates if they'd said the same.

I've just had a text from my son-in-law, who's a Rag, who has just said the same. It's a cheat within a cheat. They've got their own remuneration and they pay their bosses.

You're a money man, don't you understand this multi-million pound business?

And i'll give you the fuck off back with interest,

We benefitted from the exact same offside call on saturday, where was the fix then? I see the issue with the penalty at the end, however there is an argument in the refs defence that mario was giving it out too, and he actually only went down a second after the main pull on his shirt. I just personally think the refs arse went at the end, simple as that.

I'm a fully paid up member of the premier league referees conspiracy regarding absences from the swamp and unusual decisions in their next game back, but I genuinely believe that is caused, as Ted has said, by cute manipulation of referees wanting to advance their career with a set of unwritten rules.

I dont believe that any referee is "told" what to do, or has suggestions made to them as to how a game should be refereed, whether that be in Europe or the UK. I also dont believe that there is an anti-manchester city agenda in terms of refereeing. I believe that there is probably a pro-real madrid, barca, rags, milan bias in the champions league, but that this involves THEIR games, not the games of their competitors and the refereeing pro those teams is also based on the psychology of a meritocrisy of career advancement, not out of corruption.

[Crossie]

Compare this bollocks to the Olympics too.

Thats how sport should be played.

Money HAS caused all this but its been going on for a long time before we got rich. It runs from the top to the bottom.

Its very much a turn off sport at the moment. The clubs that matter to UEFA will always be looked after, the competition will grow and grow and our voice will never be heard properly.

Fucked up thing is, we still have a chance right?!

End of the day we have had 4 bites of the cherry, completely fucked 3 of them up and conspired to our own downfall in the first 20 minutes of this one.

Dortmund seem to be doing ok despite not being in the elite.

And Malaga, the other team whom uefa take a dim view on, have won all of their games I think, with a vastly inferior team to ours.

So who exactly is being protected by this so called corruption? Cos it certainly aint Madrid or Milan at the moment

Fucking Southgate, fucking joke - both Dixon and fucking Keane said it was a penalty - just come back from the pub, how do I break it to my son (he's 6) - we were fucking robbed, if there's blatant cheating in Italian football, it's bollocks to think it ain't happening anywhere else. I could ramble on about Chelsea & how suddenly red nose say clattenberg is sound & then they find a photo of a Chelsea fan doing a monkey impression - I'm not defending the Chelsea fan, but it's fucking convenient for Fergie the twat - nice beer by the way, Black Sheep, good pint, might watch the American Elections now - wasn't there a politics board at some point - ah halcyon days...

Tell the nipper that the refereeing mistakes would have been irrelevant had we not started the match asleep.

Teach him about the importance of getting off to a good start in a game, and let him learn from citys mistakes, rather than learning to blame some cunt else every time we fuck up.

Its a valuable lesson in life taking responsibility for your own shortcomings rather than blaming everyone else for your own failure

Anyway, happy hangover lol

Stop making sense ;) - yeah we were shocking for first two goals and he saw first half so knew that - as I said in match thread, no rambling argument about zonal marking or any other marking system for that fact, will prove to me that both goals were down to any more than crap marking & players not being arsed

[Deyna]

Big Brown envelopes ...... bent as fuck ! nuff said !

This isn't the old days. Brown Envelopes of 20G are a thing of the past, 5 million in your wage package is the way ahead.

Like i said bent as fuck !

Whatever happened to the bent Danish ref who got Chelsea knocked out at home versus Barca by NOT GIVING at least 4 penalty,s to Chelsea 3 years ago ???? He has never been seen since !

That wasn't a Dane, he was Norwegian. He left the international stage in 2010, rich on Barca money...

From what I'm aware, there are several levels (by UEFA equations) of payments, for linesmen at least (knowing a few throughout Europe). It seems that, depending on the UEFA state you're from, as a linesman, you get between €200 and €1400 per game. Welsh linesmen went on strike for a couple of seasons (until the season before last - check if I'm wrong), because they were getting paid the wages of Armenians, etc., due to the UEFA club coefficient, even though they were Prem quality.

I'd be interested to know when the last time one of the group CL games involving two 'top level' nations was refereed by someone from Macedonia/San Marino/Estonia. Truly randomised refereeing should involve truly randomised referees from UEFA, should it not?

The refereeing mistakes started in the second minute with the clear foul on Yaya and no pen.

The third paragraph I agree with wholeheartedly though. If we had take our chances (Zabaleta twice, Aguero not falling on his arse et al.) we would have won at a canter.
