Good half though.

The refereeing standard in the Premiership is really putting me off football at the moment. It seems like if you get the ref on your side you are more likely to win the game these days.

We have a game here between two sides who are quite aggressive and dont mind a tackle, let the game be like that but the ref is stopping and blowing up every time someone gets touched.

I agree though, it has been a good half between two good sides.

Haha, just saw someone post "City throwing money at their problems as usual". My thoughts on the match:

Great game. Thought City looked good up until the opening goal, then they went downhill. Not sure if Hart could've got to it, probably not expecting it to go in. Young's goal should've stood but I can see why the linesman got it wrong, he didn't have the replay like us. Hard to say what would've happened if it would've stood, City could've went all out attack and made a comeback or they could've just collapsed under the pressure. I thought Zabaleta's goal was quite good, fair play to him. Didn't really see whether Rafael dived or not, I didn't get to see a replay but judging from most comments there was contact - just glad that RVP scored the free kick (with help from his old Arsenal team mate).

Bit disappointing with what happened with Rio, Rooney and the fans. To be fair, it was only a minority that were throwing them and the surrounding fans were quick to point out the guy who hit Rio. At first, I thought he'd hit himself when celebrating. Overall, happy with the 3 points but it was a close one towards the end.

This is a car crash I have to watch

Aye, really enjoying Felli and Sandro getting in to each other now and then. Good football and big tackles, winner of a match. How it isn't picked for TV over the shite and West Ham I don't know.

Van Persie's freekick goal was amazing. It was a great match to watch.

I guess that'd make Rio the only thing Hart saved today

Fair play to the guy though, ultimately football is just a game, and when a fan steps on the pitch in a threatening manner, it's in every players interests to ensure it's something that's shut down as quickly as possible. It'd be good to see City players condemn the coin throwers and make it clear to those cunts that they don't condone their actions, maybe it'd make one of them stop and think (unlikely though).
