Sorry, no matter how many times I watch it, this "clear contact" you speak of just isn't there.

Like I say, I'm happy to admit there may be very, very minimal contact that is clearer from another angle, but this "there was clear contact, everybody saw it" is, I'm afraid, an argument for the Liverpool fans only.
I'm sorry but are you just trolling? The contact is very clear from both angles the replay showed. If you can't see that in the link you posted then the only conclusion is you are trolling. I'm a Man Utd fan so maybe you need to rethink your stance on that matter.

Rather against the run of play

Saying that, Rondon took it beautifully.

Rondón makes good use of the generous amount of space he had in the penalty area and puts West Brom in the lead. United needed to score from the period of pressure they had at the start of this half. Long way back, as they say ...

'Contact' does not mean it's a foul.

A lot of them do, it's just very rare that it's ever spotted and punished.

This weekend results proves West Ham are very much in the champions league qualification picture now.

City, United, Arsenal and West Ham probably 2 from 4 to join the top two.

Liverpool an outsider to qualify

Weren't you tempted to disown him when he came out?

People have turned up for DNA testing on Jeremy Kyle for less.

I'd be very surprised if it wasn't comfortably the top 4 as it is now.

Ramsey strikes again!

Nancy Reagan has passed away, he sure has a depressingly good record in that department.

It was a typical attacking player's swipe!

Man U looked even less average than against us - this time WBA got the winner.

As for the Liverpool penalty - was very soft but one of those we'd probably all be appealing for if it was our team.

It was never a penalty. Liverpool fans must have red tinted glasses on.

This is not correct. There was probably contact but it was certainly a blatant dive.

Whether it was a penalty or not I'll take it as we've all been on the end of such decisions0in the past and until the rules change (difficult) will be in the future. There's as much point defending the decision as there is bemoaning it. Sadly, it's currently part of the game's fabric.

I refer you to the top post on this page of the thread.

This is not correct! Probably contact? Are you still saying that is even in doubt? The rest is opinion obv. In mine it was not a dive and there was contact.

It is, People can talk in here from any team, That way "banter" or otherwise is kept from supporters threads, This is neutral ground.
