    I've always been of the opinion that.......

    ........ football in this country was above board. However, after some of the decision witnessed this season I'm beginning to wonder. Some may claim paranoia on my part but what if Cavani had been an Albion player, what would happened last night. There's no doubt that he woul have been shown a red card. He grabbed the Everton player by the throat and threw him to the floor, not just a slight push either. I realise that there was no VAR but the referee took no action, not even a yellow card. Come on, with the decisions United get it must throw into doubt the validity of these decisions. I am seriously beginning to doubt that our game is not corrupt.

    It is indeed difficult to accept that we have just been more unlucky that others, Leics buddy. However, I guess that is the reality.
    Notwithstanding, in my opinion I do consider that we are not a popular club as viewed by the media and maybe also the officials ?
    Paranoid? Probably!
    Have a happy Christmas buddy. Maybe get to have a beverage when conditions allow. (PS I’m 30 miles from Leicester. Actually worked in Millstone Lane in the late 1970s!

    Yep agreed - think back to the sendings off of Gibbs and Pereira this season .... petulant yes .... dangerous no .... but consistency out of the window ..... the sooner the Bog Six go off and firm their own Super League in Europe with their mates in Spain, Italy, Germany and the rest .... the better .....

    Corrupt maybe not, but Biased yes. Lines between the two can be thin at times.
    Either way my experince watching our games at the top level is not an enjoyable one. I never watch match of the day and much prefer to watch quest.
