@GlynisWinestein @BenObeseJecty Details and facts are things this place and these people are simply not interested in.

@BenObeseJecty It was reported stolen Ben. Long before this blew up

When you only now find out that Morgan McSweeney’s phone containing his texts with Peter Mandelson was apparently stolen last year.

We miss Barrack Obama 💔

@AdamJoseph @EDPC66 @UtdMicah Yeah, they reckon it gets them clicks = popularity. It’s like all the fake quotes going around - so tedious

@EDPC66 @UtdMicah We'll see if they delete it then, my guess is no.

@UtdMicah The stats are not accurate. Hate accounts like that one who just spread shit knowing full well it's a lie.

@dharnishiqbal Mike Dean on Sky Sports Sat said & I’m paraphrasing here: Utd benefited from not having Dalot sent off v sent off so last night was fair enough ! Even Paul Merson said he thought it a clear penalty. Gallagher will say the same as Atwell & Dean on Monday morning.

The referees, PGMOL, ‘Ref Watch’ and that programme that they do on Mondays to ‘explain’ the refereeing decisions were all brought in as PR for when the refs make a bad decision. It’s utterly nauseating on comms when they go ‘What do you think of this Dermot Gallagher?’ And he just outright defends whatever the ref has done. Don’t normally care about the refereeing decisions, but they chickened out tonight because they didn’t want to give a penalty because they already gave one, which caused United to concede and then hilariously got given a penalty when the same thing happened to them. What happens if these points cost them in the UCL chase?

@henrywinter "It’s a penalty, but Manchester United have benefited from decisions this season so it's fine." So we expected to simply shrug and say ‘oh well, never mind’? Atwell a has history of getting it wrong against Utd Referees are paid to reach the correct decisions for the duration.

Decisions, decisions. Amad Diallo was a penalty. That gets given as a free-kick anywhere else on the pitch. It’s even more a penalty than the Matheus Cunha penalty (which was a pen, however “soft”). Amad was just less theatrical. Penalty not given. Wrong decision. Harry Maguire was a penalty and red card. DOGSO. Penalty and red card given. Correct decision.  Understandable debate over the decisions and inevitable frustration for Manchester United. But United have benefited from decisions that go their way this season. All clubs have these issues, examples, frustrations. The main issue here is … 1) General standard of officiating in the Premier League. Amad decision was poor. Even more investment required in grass-roots refereeing, in fast-tracking talent, in training up academy graduates who don’t make it as pros, and in continued work to improve further the Select Group refs. PL has some good officials. Just need more. 2) Football belongs to fans, not officials. Fans deserve to know what is going on in real time. When decision/incident being discussed by officials, audio should be played live. The authorities don’t want to, feel it places too much pressure on officials so content themselves with brief explanation when announcing decision and clarification on PL Match Centre. Fans in the stadium and tuning in pay a lot for tickets and subscriptions, respectively, and shouldn’t be kept in the dark. Audio works well in rugby union and cricket (and acknowledging those sports have more pauses in play). l went to a VAR demonstration (not PL) earlier this week given by an elite official. Hearing the audio between officials gave insight into the process - and respect for what they are dealing with at speed, especially with players trying to con them.  You are never going to get complete consistency over decisions. There’s always going to be an element of subjectivity with so many incidents. But fans deserve more transparency and accountability. It might restore some trust. #BOUMUN

@AdamJoseph Hard agree

I want Michael Carrick to speak strongly in his press conference. Too often in recent years Manchester United refuse to criticise officiating, but tonight is the night for that. When it changes the course of the game & costs you a result, it's time to take a stand.

@phoward1974 @terrychristian That silence was so obvious. We all know they’d have gone on about it at any other time

@terrychristian The commentators stayed very silent protecting PGMOL. I'm a Bolton fan and even I can see it's a penalty!

How was that not a penalty on Amad

@AnnemarieDray Exactly ! I hope Carrick points it out in his post-match interview cos it seems that some clubs get decisions when managers whinge on camera

Everyone knows that’s a penalty for Amad and it was a very evident ‘I just gave them a penalty so I cannot give them another one’ kind of embarrassing joke of a decision.

@HughEdw31897368 I was surprised there wasn’t a Covid question last night bearing in mind the utterly scathing report by Heather Hallett had been released on the same day. Whatley must have been so relieved nobody asked about the Cons handling of that crisis.

Helen Whately has got some front talking about social care. During the pandemic she and Hancock failed this country. The question should have been on the Covid Inquiry report not trying to stitch up Wes Streeting which failed as he wasn’t going to be shut down by Bruce #bbcqt

@mattforde 😱 how did I not know that ?! 🤬🤬🤬🤬 Gutted. I’m on your email lists now so next time…

@CentreLeft_ I played Brighton a few weeks ago!

@mattforde Congratulations on your team reaching the Europa 1/4 finals last night. Was excited to see additional tour dates added but gutted not to see Brighton on the list 😕 Please will you try and add Brighton/Pompey/Soton to your next tour ?

@LauraTrottMP @wallaceme That list includes Conservative Baroness @SayeedaWarsi so not just Opposition MPs. The comments you’re all now defending are deeply offensive and if an opposition MP had said them, you’d be singing a very different tune to the one you’re humming along here.

Instead of simply disagreeing with Nick, these MPs are calling for him to be “investigated”. This is exactly why an Islamophobia definition is so dangerous. People need to be able to disagree and debate without the authorities weighing in.

Congratulations @NFFC 👏👏👏

@MrJoeGooch I see Prof Hugh Jarse has entered too

Can you enter completely fake details on Reform UK's 'NigelCutMyBills' prize draw website?* *SPOILER ALERT: Yes, yes you can.

Well done @KemiBadenoch This is how far we have fallen - you have taken a once great party and reduced it to this 👇🏽 Enjoying endorsements and plaudits from convicted fraudsters and far right fascists Shame on those of you that have dragged the @Conservatives Party into the gutter. You have damaged decades of work that so many of us put in to make our party a decent inclusive space and you’ve committed electoral suicide in the process. instagram.com/reel/DWCA5oPDB…

Sikhs, Jews, Hindus and Christians are all invited to mark religious festivals on Trafalgar Square by @SadiqKhan. Stop fanning the flames of division.

Since @Ofcom seems to have given up, we asked 20 experienced journalist from a wide range of backgrounds to watch multiple hours of @GBNEWS . Their conclusion: the supposedly regulated channel has, in effect, become Reform TV. How did it happen? thenewworld.co.uk/alan-rusbridge…
