And that is scary as hell. If they can't even get the most important decisions correct with the desired consistency fans generally want (and throw in some absolute howlers), just imagine how horrendous it will be if they get involved in more decisions, many of which of even more subjective nature. There'll come a point there will be no need for an onfield referee (at least the abuse to him will stop). Just have 3 guys in a studio, who can send text to the big screen in the stadium to inform teams what every decision is.

It’s the arrogance of the people making these decisions that they think it’s going so well they can expand it!

Mind boggling .!!

Big question to ask, where is @ColchesterFC ? He hasn't been seen since entering the pub to watch the game last night. Has he gone native and moved in there? Did the locals lose it after the penalty decision and he was identified, by the wearing of a coat, as an outsider and locked in the cellar?

Absolutely incredible atmosphere for 96 minutes and then it all went very flat. I was gutted as I can imagine that the city would have been jumping for hours if they'd not been robbed by a wrong/dodgy/corrupt (delete as applicable) decision. I did see a few people wearing coats last night but I thought they must be tourists. I tried to fit in with a short sleeve polo shirt and gilet combo and I don't think they suspected anything.

So. Nine away goals in a Champion’s League group and only one point? Staggering. Tough to make a case for the defence.

Probably something to do with the 11 conceded!

The irony is that Onana has looked very solid in the Prem in recent weeks after a dodgy start. But in Europe he’s been calamitous.

Probably something to do with a very easy run of games 👀

That game was bonkers. One of the best attacking performances I've seen from Man Utd all season, looked very dangerous on the break and could've honestly scored 7-8 goals. But no midfield control and even a Gala team full of Premier League rejects ran the game. If they had a decent striker they would've scored a load more. Not often you watch a game and can't believe how it only ended 3-3 o_O
 
Out of the following 4 games, guess which one I picked to watch this evening...

Arsenal - Lens (5-0 at half time)
Real Madrid - Napoli (2-1)
Benfica - Inter (3-0)
Bayern - Copenhagen (0-0)

Work and dinner caused me to miss much of the Man U game so missed all 3 man U goals....somehow saw all three Galatasaray goals!!
