Not a good start for City punters

you can now get 7/1, which is way better than the 11/8 you probably took

10/11 was huge value.

**Hatedajacks** · 08-01-12, 13:21

Harsh sending off but of course it's a free and a yellow. Two feet and wreck less but not dangerous enough for red.

**Zola** · 08-01-12, 13:21

How is Giggs not booked?

**The Situation** · 08-01-12, 13:21

It was definitely a free, and probably a yellow.

**ghostface** · 08-01-12, 13:27

Jones hacks Aquero down at the knees and no card. Chris Foy is a good referee

**chips1234** · 08-01-12, 13:29

chris foy obv backed city on paddypower so when utd went 1 up he sent off kompany to get his money back

**Guest** · 08-01-12, 13:29

fair play to young Jones telling Rio STFU for trying to blame him for that fuck up of a pass

**chips1234** · 08-01-12, 13:32

what a finsh welbeck

**ghostface** · 08-01-12, 13:32

Quality finish from Welbeck

**FeetMagic** · 08-01-12, 13:33

Great finish!

**The C Kid** · 08-01-12, 13:34

Foy is absolutely useless but by the letter of the law it's a red.

The problem is the working of the laws not the referee interpretation.

**IPB Champ** · 08-01-12, 13:35

Ok-ish finish there

dominance restored in Manchester

**Zola** · 08-01-12, 13:35

City edge one step closer to the league.

10/11? was it?, but i'm fairly sure they were 11/10 yesterday, either way i thought it was value, sunderland at 10/11 later on is also value imo.

Yeah really not the outrageous decision some are making it out to be. Stupid by a player of Kompany's experience going in like that, potentially very dangerous, lack of contact and getting the ball isn't really relavent.

Just considering the conditions I would have just sided with yellow still but could be wrong on that.

What are the Liverpool supporters opinion on hitting women/girlfriends in general?

**digiman** · 08-01-12, 13:40

A 6 nil to united would be nice today

**IPB Champ** · 08-01-12, 13:41

troooooololololol

**careca** · 08-01-12, 13:45

Utd supporters can relax re Rooney.

He kissed the badge so that's that

Pity about red card decision (I don't think even by letter of law it was one as he won the ball with the inside of his right foot) possible good game ruined.

Nice touch by Wellbeck after pen decision trying to get another red card. Stay classy kid.

**A_CitizenErased** · 08-01-12, 13:47

How do you convert hands in Pokerstars now? Doesnt let me anymore.

**ghostface** · 08-01-12, 13:48

How was the tackle dangerous exactly?

Ye i can't get over the reaction here and else where. Look at the speed of the lunge in real time. People are blinded that he got the ball and Nani Bottled it. You can't lunge like that. He could have got the ball and still broke Nani's leg if Nani had of challeged it 50/50. Huge balls from Foy to make the right call IMO.

Very slight chance City appeal and zero percent chance it gets rescinded. The FA will be happy with that red IMO.

2 footed studs showing? tackles like that deserve red regardless if they win the ball or not.

€4 on City to win @ 200/1

No, he wasn't near making contact with Nani. All ever talk about football anymore is refereeing decisions and racists, makes me

Because Nani bottled it. If Nani had of challenged he would have ended up an injury.

Yeah maybe, I think cos its the only time I've never seen Nani ask for a free it has me confused

Still don't think it was anywhere near a sending off. I look forward to proper football later anyway

**Strewelpeter** · 08-01-12, 14:03

Uncle Joe Higgins and Richard Bore Barrett outbiding each other to have the most moronic analysis of how to repair the economy on the radio.
Bore basically stated that his figure for the 600Billion of Wealth we could redistribute was a number he made up on his own and has no basis whatsoever in reality.
Uncle Joe thinks we can take all the assets in the state set up a single state bank and take everyone off the dole and put them to work in the hospitals.

Its like listening to a pair of stoned teenagers

If she's a new girl on the scene I always think day date = mistake. Except the zoo. Women fucking love the zoo.

I'm awaiting the clubs official statement before I bother replying to this properly.

**The Situation** · 08-01-12, 14:23

Scholes isn't really back until he throws out one of his trademark "mis-timed" tackles.

Prob why Mancini took Silva off.

**Jaysoose** · 08-01-12, 14:24

How bad a ref is Chris foy? Kolarov rugby tackle Valencia and he waves it away!

**Zola** · 08-01-12, 14:24

LOL

**ghostface** · 08-01-12, 14:25

Genius substitution. This game is a bit nuts

**hotspur** · 08-01-12, 14:26

United need Nicky Butt imo.

**careca** · 08-01-12, 14:26

Scholes must have been kicking one too many beach balls.

Gl Flushdraw lol.

Aguero is an absolutely phenomenal footballer. Movement, work-rate and ability to always provide an outball so good today.

Can anyone bump Hurricane's Aguero post please.
