In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Tim Sherwood fuming at the pen when it was a pen is funny
Essentially any time we get a penalty for anything less than a defender taking a chainsaw to one of our strikers and you get the same band of shite pundits blowing their top.
Tim Sherwood shouldn't be allowed opinions. I remember him from Fanzone and he was terrible then. Yep, I watched when around 20
How the pundits are calling that penalty controversial is a joke.
Clear as day

Clear penalty. Knee on knee contact will send anyone tumbling at that speed. It's a foul all day.
Red card was a bit more contentious. It's definitely a foul, but I'm not 100% certain Bruno gets to that ball. Referee isn't to know that in real time, and couldn't really be a clear and obvious error to overturn it.

Let's see how the media react to Nketiah's goal to make it 2-1, and then the soft red on the Fulham player.
Arsenal refuse to kick the ball out with a Fulham player down in the box. Arsenal cross the ball and Nketiah is only onside because the downed Fulham player is keeping him onside.

That’ll be another VAR team blacklisted to appease the ABUs. They’re gonna run out of VARs by Christmas at this rate
It’s a goal chance, that’s all it has to be. He doesn’t have to 100 percent get to it
He also tried to suggest Onana getting clattered by Wood could've been something to look at as a pen.
Then suggested that McTominay was "sitting down" to waste time, when he was getting treatment on his head and had to change his shirt.
He is a clown.
"Purely legit, no need to look at that but the defender was clearly getting the ball before Bruno and Rashford so clearly dived, I know I know Rashford was clipped but he clearly dived and should never ever have been a penalty. United always get the decisions!! Is there a bias towards big teams in PL at their home?? We need to talk about this all week!!!! only focusing on United!!"Let's see how the media react to Nketiah's goal to make it 2-1, and then the soft red on the Fulham player.

Richard Keys on BEin said as they blew the whistle, well we thought they’d get the three points, and it helped with the lions share of the decisions in their favour
(words to that effect)

Oh boy that was a breeze compared to Gary Breen on Irish tv
We had the Two Liverpool fans doing commentary shouting for a pen when Casemiro leant into the attackers back
Was Don Hutchinson actually not Sherwood, mixed them up. Same shit though.Tim Sherwood shouldn't be allowed opinions. I remember him from Fanzone and he was terrible then. Yep, I watched when around 20
My stream had Don Hutchinson. He seemed like he would die on the hill of it not being a penalty.
Was Don Hutchinson actually I think? Not sure. Either way, they're full of shit. All United haters
Video?
That 15 game streak of United getting terrible decisions their way after the Wolves game didn't last long then.
Keown being a prick as usual saying it wasn’t a penalty.
Joke of a pundit
Joke of a pundit
It's to balance the screaming and shouting and gnashing of teeth when a decision doesn't go poor persecuted Manchester United's way.
I didn't say they weren't but many here were saying they would be getting dodgy decisions for weeks. Given that the pen and red card was a bit soft I would have expected these to not be awarded given how the refs are biased etc.
the decisions today were correct
Without meaning to be horrible, I've always thought Keown looks like the missing link in the human evolutionary chain.
Not just you. He looks like a piss take of himself.
He IS the missing link and medical science should be allowed to probe him to hell
They weren't "soft". They were correct decisions.
Mind, this is the same game in which we had a counter stopped because two Forest players tackled each other - which then resulted into one of our players getting a yellow - and also our keeper getting carded because he didn't play the ball when there was a second ball in play/on the pitch. This really isn't the game to be doing "see, United didn't get dodgy decisions" game that you think it is
So the closing segment on BBC score is the United penalty ‘controversy’.
Infamy, infamy
Infamy, infamy
I found it funny all the "watch there only be 7 mins" style whining when Forest were ahead, crying about all their time wasting, then the outrage when 11 mins were announced. Didn't we just spend the last 30 mins pointing out their time wasting. This idea that it would only have been 6 mins if Forest were ahead is some infantile conspiracy level horseshit.
It's funny how ex defenders never say anything is a penalty. Ex strikers always say penalty
Sherwood was in the UK Sky Sport studio not commentating on a game.Prette sure it was Sherwood.
Edit: i can't read, nevermind
Are you nuts? Moaning over some decisions which didn't have any bearing on the final result whilst failing to accept that the refs did not get the key decisions wrong and this allowed to you win the game. If there was any hint of some weird anti united conspiracy that you believe then at least one and probably both of those decisions would have gone in Forest's favour.
Just a lot of very bitter ex player pundits from a time when we were so dominant. As a result they had their arses handed to them by us for much of their careers - which they will have justified as being due to help from referees rather than them just not being as good. Naturally that bitterness and delusion flows to their punditry, since it is all the small minded buffoons like Agbonlahor and Sutton have to keep them in a job - lord knows it's not for any interesting insight they may provide. Hated, adored, never ignored.
I’m not nuts - I’d argue that refs making the correct decisions is hardly the gotcha moment you thought it was, that sounds nuts to me. Especially after the calamitous decision we got at Spurs. For what’s worth I think the overall state of refereeing is poor and not that there’s a specific agenda against specific teams - although refs do try to “equalize” poor previous decisions
This referee was probably made aware of the discrepancy and thus wasn't scared to give a penalty in this instance because VAR would have to overturn it and considering it was a penalty, no real punishment can be put on this ref for making the correct decision.
The fact that the most controversial decisions were in the Arsenal Vs Fulham game, yet the silence is deafening, tells us all we need to know
What decisions?
This is a terrible set of examples with which to try & prove this point.
Exactly! You must’ve been to the same optician as Arsene!
