How come the pen wasn’t overturned and Martial booked for diving?

[casablancas]

Well. I’ll be avoiding sky sports for the next few weeks until all the fawning stops. Tbf though it was 13 men against 9. 

[NaijaFox]

We still hold the AWAY record! 

[ARTY_FOX]

The good news for Southampton though is they'll finally stop talking about ours

Struggle to stay interested in football with some of the shit I'm seeing 

I've seen 4 red cards tonight, 2 arguably never reds. 

Some ridiculous decisions. I've never felt less connected to football

Man U already had this record 9 nil against Ipswich, ours is an away record, joint record overall in PL unless they get 10

On the plus side I had Fernandes as captain in my fantasy team! 

My friend, (whom I'm competing against), has him too. Dammit.  I suck at this Fantasy Football lark

[Zear0]

Sorry Glenn, your gripe is the duration it takes to come these naff decisions?

RFC!

I’m pretty pissed off with Southampton, they’ve now given Martin Tyler more reason to wank himself silly every time United name is mentioned....

Surprised they didn't play on so utd could get 10.

Poor Southampton.... Ralph’s CV has one major blemish on it......

I think you'll find there's 2.

Who was it earlier who said VAR cuts out cheats...?

[Jobyfox]

They haven’t broken or matched our record!

 

Our result was away from home ..... and they’d already beaten Ipswich 9-0 years before ours. 

[Manini]

If we all woke up tomorrow and United ceased to exist, would anyone give a ****? The epitome of everything I hate about football.

9-0 on Groundhog Day

Bednarek bagged me minus 7 points. 

[Paninistickers]

Glad this'll get talked about rather than us. Even I get bored of hearing about it, let alone poor saints. 

 

Oddly, I even get irritated by talk of 2015/16. We did it. It was great. But I want jam today and tomorrow. Not yesterday 

[foxes_rule1978]

Southampton are going to drop fast, two suspended now and a few injuries... 

[EastAnglianFox]

I honestly rather see Jose and Kane lift the title than Ole and Maguire.... Just vile, the lot of them

[StanSP]

What I find disturbingly worrying is that one VAR official got that penalty decision wrong (and Scott is utterly shite as it is), but it got referred to the on-field ref and they still didn't see it was wrong? They saw the same footage as us and determined Martial was fouled? 

Do they not see him fall early? Do they not see Bednarek pull out of the challenge? 

 

Very disappointing.

Thanks to whoever said 9-0 was 25/1 at half time. I was nice enough to pass on the message to my mate who is now £250 better off..... naturally I didn’t place it myself
