Basically two decisions which completely changed the game in favour of Man U. Ref's make mistakes but that many key mistakes in such a big match?

Yeah but lets be honest if that was us you;d be blaming us rather then the refs its ok cause its the mighty chelsea though.

Valencia, what a mug

Valencia with an effort from the Chamakh school of finishing!

I can't remember the last time we've been screwed over badly like this. I'm thinking against Barca when the ref sent RVP off. Dubious decision.

To go two goals down and to pull it back l, but then to lose like this...hard for anyone to swallow. A dubious sending off and an offside goal. Turned the game upside down.

Get it into the mixer lads.

Not really no, the odd decision happens but two decisions like this?

We get our fair share of breaks, but some people go on like all the decisions go against us and it's the only reason we don't win sometimes, we get bad decisions but it generally evens out over a season. Today's game is a bit different IMO, this wasn't an one off decision, it was a succession of shockers which basically won the game for Man U.

Or not

Chelsea 2-3 Man Utd, FT.

Chelsea. :haha:

Two defeats in a row, crisis looming.

Wednesday night will be tasty. :popcorn:

Not because they can't recognise dives. But because - if the player stays on his feet after being fouled - they hardly ever get the decision. The act of going down seems to be necessary in confirming the decision.

True. When was the last time you've seen NQ back the ref? :lol:
