Radio, TV and the referee all disagree with you.

 

Youre obviously both right though

Which TV station were you watching?

 

Sky were unanimous in saying that it was a foul.

I thought Smith was going over before the challenge so I can see why he was booked. Replays looked different.

 

Result suits us.

A Bournemouth win would have been better in the long run.

 

Southampton are more likely to challenge for the top half than Bournemouth.

Manchester City v West Ham score prediction?.... 

I'm going for 5-1.

[FoxesDeb]

Just read on the BBC that John Moss has apologised and said it should have been a penalty

Apologies make it o.k then! Not!

[Donut]

Why would you apologise for your decision? If you had the conviction to make the decision dont then make yourself look weak after.

I've gone for 3-0...  Been a really good weekend for my BBC Predictions - 4 exact scores, 3 correct results, so far - up to 4114 in their overall league (with one exact score (from Bournemouth vs Southampton) to be added to my place)

Got the figures the wrong way round :P

2-0 Man City win without getting out of 1st gear.

[Izzy]

What a shocking atmosphere at Man City. 

 

I know we knock the KP sometimes but it’s still better than most PL grounds...

And im back

Moss himself agrees with us

[Donut]

Im calling this early..... but man city are gonna give up some ground over christmas.

 

Theyre labouring through games at the moment. They COULD lose one or two in december.

 

Relying a lot on sterlings late goals just recently

As i said earlier hes a massive penis to apologise.

 

You give what you see at the time. If he gave what he saw there is no need for apology.

 

If he wasnt sure if it was a pen or not he shouldnt give one.

 

If he thought it was a penalty but didnt give one then hes a muppet.

He has effectively admitted he is incompetent then.

West Ham deserve to be ahead, Man City look right off the pace.

I put £100 on Man Utd to win the PL yesterday at 10/1. Still a very long way to go and I can’t see City sustaining their brilliant start.

I might be completely mad but i think a lack of physicality could harm them over christmas too with the heavy fixture list.

 

No doubt in recent weeks theyve been losing steam. Theyve been doing things today that are uncharacteristic

[Sir Shep]

Don’t know why they didn’t allow Hart to play today, would have guaranteed Man City a couple of goals I’d have thought!

I remember when people used to say 'I wish referees would be honest and do interviews after matches to explain their decisions, that would make people feel better'.

Well you are 50% correct at half time  

 

But srsly what is with Man City today? Would NOT like to be in the dressing room right now.

I remember when people used to say 'Man City are the best team of all time and we should be honoured to only lose 2-0 to them without creating a chance'.

[Phube]

Well it’s set up for a Sterling winner on the 94th minute then!
