Samba would have saved that... #justsaying

 

[Berkshire Red]

When you watched Wolves raped by the officials 2 weeks ago you just knew what was coming.

 

[Ashley]

Just inevitable wasn't it? No doubt Chelsea will be given a helping hand by the officials next week too.

 

[Gyros Peter]

That's a penalty for me, we'd shout for it on the other end. Truly disappointing but stranger things have happened. COYR!!!

We wouldn't even have it looked at.

 

[JangoJingo]

That’s why it’s better for Worrall to concede a goal rather than get sent off. With 11 men we always have a chance of getting one back.

 

[Any Time Now]

Can we just spend the last 20 minutes taking it in turns to kick lumps out of Fernandes and Antony?

 

[T.B.T.]

Come on Forest, 12 minutes is plenty time for an equaliser.

 

[Bobby The Brain]

Chin up you lot, we’ve given them a proper game at Old Trafford. We’re gonna have a good season.

 

[Grenville 1898]

Are ManUre fans not able to support their team without filming everything on their phones!

 

[incapable hulk]

As a pair there not, I think both look fine with Niakhate or Felipe (or both).

Worrall was playing with Niakhate & has just gotten himself sent off and thrown the game away.

 

[Redemption]

As you were.

 

[Major Oak Morgan]

Wasn’t even a penalty - he bought it after Danilo pulled out

 

[T.B.T.]

Wood to come on?

 

[Captain Sinister]

Wait, do we also include 4th official? What about the lino's. We could be really outnumbered.

Zulus fousands ov em

 

[Listen 'ere young man]

Hardly a going down challenge, was looking for it.

Not even a check for the equaliser.

All contrived nonsense is this refereeing.

[Darcy]

oh well, we have given them the chances to get back into this game.

We are only a few players away from being a half decent side in this league and let’s be honest Utd are f***ing miles away from where they think they are.

 

[Raymondo Ponte']

What the effing hell is going on. Scrap VAR because it has absolutely no use except to artificially keep the top 6 teams as the top 6. This is effing ridiculous, not a red card. Give the ref and VAR a bleeding red card and ban them from the PL.

Been sayin it from day One.

 

[Farmer Jack]

I wonder if all these United fans tourists who were booing their team and not making much noise otherwise, and are now all of a sudden getting behind their team, will be taking part in or supporting the Sit In after the game?

 

[Tony Woodcock's LoveChild]

Ah well. Nice while it lasted before the ref remembered he was playing at Old Trafford

 

[theloner]

The one I'm most bitter about is the free kick that rat faced scum rat dived for which led to their 2nd. Yates literally didn't touch him.

Proud of this team today whatever the outcome. COYR

 

[congo_red_49]

Last time we played this lot at old Trafford, we got outclassed, massively.

This time, we matched them and they needed the refs help. I’ll take that as progress.

 

[RichardKeysLovesLingard]

Chin up you lot, we’ve given them a proper game at Old Trafford. We’re gonna have a good season.

100% there's a lot of positives to take, but there is also an equal amount of negatives which is an issue.

 

[apondaway]

MGW needs to shut up and play - he's going to get a yellow for whining.

 

[Gyros Peter]

I just hope no heads go - mine would today.

 

[Bonfy177]

Bruno …..anybody apart from that twat, well there’s Antony, and Gazpacho, forgot about Martinez.
