which? the offside or the penalty? or both

If QPR HAD been in United's area in the same way, they wouldnt have got the peno go their way, never mind the red card. It would've been offside and a freekick to the mancs.

But when it happens with the mancs attacking, it's a peno and a red card.

Do you think it would've been given to QPR if the circumstances had taken place in the other box?

We should have got a pen for more than that yesterday, the officiating is so inconsistent it is unreal.

Can you imagine the outrage if it had been Suarez who'd got a pen like that. ****ing hypocrites.

[Craig_H]

well to be fair some of this is true. barca get a lot of pens also

My question in the previous post kind of addresses this.

[Craig_H]

Aye - I just can't get over how appalling that decision was - literally as bad as it gets

we get the old chestnut about "we attack more, we spend more time in opposition penalty areas so of course we'll get penalties" etc etc.

Thought Rooney should have got a red for his earlier tackle on the QPR player.

nah. booking though

[Gibbo]

“@OptaJoe: 10/7 - Man Utd have won the most penalties this season (10) while QPR have been shown the most red cards (7). Predictable.”

Predictable indeed OptaJoe

That was a brutally **** decision from the linesman.

Just brutal. And the only people who don't know are the lino and the ref.

Screw FIFA, get some video help in ffs.

It's funny that when this kind of thing happens, your fans admit the nonsense of it all, but in general discussions about United benefitting from favourable decisions, we get the old chestnut about "we attack more, we spend more time in opposition penalty areas so of course we'll get penalties" etc etc.

What's the point ... FIFA later

[Gibbo]

I think the QPR Fans are singing the Suarez song .
