If that penalty was the other way around you can guarantee it would be glossed over, just like all their fouls were "accidental". BT and Sky's bias against us is so blatant but I dont understand why they hate us so much?!

Sky, over the past few years have actually started being fairly balanced in regards to our games. I completely concur about BT sport though, I was willing Glenn to tell Steve to shut his bias, bitter scouse gob.

Playing like that against your rivals yet still getting a result is so unspursy it's ridiculous! If Chelsea stop being so efficiently good we'll win the league.

I thought you could only get retrospective bans for violent conduct? The ref witnessed it and made the decision.
Not 100% sure. I know they changed the rules that even if the ref has seen it, action can still be taken....

But it seems to be either conduct
- after a tackle
- off the ball

Since it's an "on the ball" incident, the ref call should be final. But u know since it's a Manchester club... More action will be taken unlike if happen to a smaller club like west ham.

We'll see I guess.

BT commentating is so bad, think I actually prefer Niall Quinn to most of them and he's infuriating too. I actually like Hoddle and the other guy whoever he is isn't so bad but Mcmanaman is so bad.

What about the lack of yellows shown to City players and not being awarded freekicks when we deserved them.

Champions normally grind out points like that right?!

We may not have been at our best but it would be wrong not to credit City for thst as well. They completely shut our play down. And still we walk away from the Etihad with a point. Bloody marvellous.

Penalty for Sterling. Balotelli stamp. Swings and roundabouts.

We're not legends they simply played better.

Its the same when we smash teams and people say the opposition were so poor. We make them look poor and city did the same to us that first half.

2nd half they edged it but was a bit closer
Indeed - why can't people see this? They played like men possessed in the first 45. This is a team that beat Barcelona, and filled with talent, their main problem is application. When they play like that, with Silva, KDB and Augero buzzing, not many teams could live with them, particularly at home.

I am so impressed by Winks, we got away with that but fucking up yeee Pep. But on another note we started very poorly, not good enough if we ate serious bout a league.
