Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

Here are the amount of penalties awarded against teams in the Premiership, from the start of the 98/99 season to the start of the 08/09 season. I can't find earlier stats, but a ten year slice seems...

Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

Manchester United have had very few decisions go against them while playing at home, in comparison to every other Premier League team since the League's inception. The lack of penalties given against...

Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

Is it? After all, as you said, they're only human. With over fifty-thousand United fans calling for your blood, I don't suppose any amount of experience would help there.



For the record, I...

Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

Referees are trained to be in the right place at the right time. Their decisions shouldn't be under debate because of a restricted view. Most of the time they are in the right position. This point...

Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

I do agree that the majority of criticism aimed at referees is biased rubbish. However I contest that the trend of unfairness at Old Trafford is based entirely upon spectator opinion, as camera...

Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

My opinion on the issue of fairness (or lack of it) at Old Trafford stems from the trends of statistics set by the referees. There is an irrefutable trend that shows how decisions are more likely to...

Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

Not at all. In my opinion the officials who have helped to create such staggering trends buck under the pressure of big games. You don't get bigger games in English domestic football than those at...

Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

Saw the highlights on MotD. United were very poor indeed. Rooney came back from injury too soon - he isn't playing well and his frustration doesn't help the team. Evra (who is usually as solid as...

Re: Bet Bagpuss is legless this afternoon

As much as I'd like to see someone else win the title, no one even comes close to United...
