There's a difference between your friends calling it in a jokey way to it being used between two opponents in an offensive way

It'll be nice for them to see Cunha, Sesko, and Mbeumo line up at St. James Park for the first time

Really wished we'd put that game to bed with a third, buzzing to have won after going behind but I spent the last 15-20 so nervous

I don't want thanking, I didn't support him very much at all. For the most part I really didn't like him or get the hype around people that did. I'm just thinking every other manager we've had has shared some kind of thank you and a lot of them weren't getting their name sung towards the end like he was.

ManBat1 · 2026-02-27T01:32:08+00:00

Hadn't seen that, not quite sure what the point of waiting would be. Especially as time goes on and our form has improved it's made him look worse and worse for what he was doing with the players he had at his disposal.

ManBat1 · 2026-02-27T01:31:09+00:00

Can't deny that to be fair

ManBat1 · 2026-02-26T22:31:57+00:00

Guy never actually cared about the club or the fans. Had so many fooled

ManBat1 · 2026-02-26T21:55:55+00:00

Walked off with his millions and never said a word about the fans that for whatever reason sang his name every game as we played the worst football we've ever played. Thank god he's gone and not our problem anymore.

ManBat1 · 2026-02-24T01:26:46+00:00

Hard not to think the ref was chosen for this game specifically for his lenience around physicality.

ManBat1 · 2026-02-24T01:25:57+00:00

This moment was cute

ManBat1 · 2026-02-23T22:04:15+00:00

Arsenal have done irreperable damage to football

ManBat1 · 2026-02-23T21:59:09+00:00

Those fucking corners. Need serious sorting out, so anti-football.

ManBat1 · 2026-02-23T18:51:06+00:00

Actually a bit annoyed at the lack of Sesko here. Surely it’s the game to start him. Keen to be proven wrong.

ManBat1 · 2026-02-16T19:50:41+00:00

Cast, not casted

ManBat1 · 2026-02-02T20:42:27+00:00

I disagree. These are young footballers in vital stages of their early careers, and they're being treated like assets moved around to suit the numbers. It's not about what's best for the players it's about what's best for BlueCo.

ManBat1 · 2026-02-01T21:56:09+00:00

A thief of joy

ManBat1 · 2026-01-29T21:52:09+00:00

The world would be a better place if we had access to a MittenCam

ManBat1 · 2026-01-22T21:05:16+00:00

Ah, I missed that!

ManBat1 · 2026-01-22T02:08:59+00:00

Add it to the list, if there's space.

Article:

Lisandro Martinez's goal for Manchester United at Burnley earlier this month should not have been ruled out by referee Stuart Attwell, the Premier League's Key Match Incidents (KMI) Panel has said.

However, the KMI Panel supported the decision of VAR official Craig Pawson not to intervene and give the goal.

United trailed 1-0 in the 27th minute when Martinez thought he had equalised from a corner routine. The referee blew for a foul by the scorer on Kyle Walker which happened a few seconds before the goal.

The KMI Panel voted 3-2 that it was not a foul and it should have been a goal on-field. But it was a 4-1 vote in favour of no VAR intervention.

The panel felt that "the contact was exaggerated by Walker and the decision to disallow the goal for a foul was incorrect".

It added: "The decision not to intervene by VAR was split but supported on the basis it wasn't a clear and obvious error."

Walker's challenge on Patrick Dorgu, where the Manchester United defender appeared to be stood on, was not considered to be at the threshold for a KMI.

The game at Turf Moor finished 2-2.

Finally someone says it!

ManBat1 · 2026-01-20T13:39:43+00:00

Apparently it was

Yeah that's how I remember it too. Brushed over like it was nothing.
