Re: Manchester City vs West Ham Utd : match thread
So, to summarise then, we've so far played 3 PL games. In all 3 of those an opposition player should have seen red and we should have been playing against 10 men. One player did get his marching orders and the other two didn't.
The red card was correctly given to a Bournemouth player. The red card was incorrectly not given to a Chelsea and a Manchester City player. And people (including pundits) still claim there is no bias shown towards the 'big' clubs from officials. That's all we needed to know to remind ourselves.

It's just a continual theme carried on from last season. Big Club bias and it's blatant as you like and spoils the game when it rears it's ugly head.

Many would argue we should have had a red in the Man City game too.Iron-on-transfer wrote:So, to summarise then, we've so far played 3 PL games.
