Today's Football 2017-18 Season

Who knows what buffon could have said to Oliver tbf but I like Oliver, think he's the only competent one in the league.

As well as the one who gave us a pen at klanfield, he deserved a knighthood for that.

Oliver probably got paid huge by the UEFA, incredible dirty work

I don't want to think it is wide spread corruption. What I see is Oliver is the heir to Clattenburg in that he feels he should be the center of attention so he does things like today intentionally

Pen for me. The lad was right in front of goal. Little shove puts him of balance before attempted hook clearance.

On another note, Real weren't convincing. Could they stand the pace at the pit?

 

[RomanReigns]

cant believe its the same michael oliver who has given us 2 pens this season and didn't book any of our players in the derby

he's deffo corrupt

 

[Kev The Rat]

Interesting that the bookies have Bayern as favourites to win it now

 

[Stutheblue]

on this set of fixtures, Roma are the only one I'd feel confident might do them

Amazingly yes. Madrid looked slow, Bayern didnt look great. Hopefully they pick up and turn up in the semis

 

[Big_nev]

I think he's grabbed his shoulder and tried to turn him. All I'll say about it is if Jordan Henderson or some tit from United were doing that in a game against someone like Stoke it wouldn't have even been yellow

Even watching it back i'm not even sure Oliver can see what happens.

Yer thats a shock

Absolutely no way this wasn't fixed to make Ronaldo look like a hero. Football died many years ago. It's now pantomime like WWF was. Until they fix everton to be good again nothing is real

Honestly hope they cheat, fix, lie, steal all the way to lifting the trophy....

Means the RS never, season can end, I can enjoy the the summer....and my life again.

that was craig pawson

Ref got it spot on.

Penalty, yes. Red card, also yes.

We'd be absolutely fuming if we didn't get a penalty for the same challenge on one of our players.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Was it really a red card though?

 

[Tin-Tin]

Pen was the correct decision, dont know what the defender is thinking of there. Buffon completely lost his head and seemed to be barging the ref as well as screaming god knows what at him so he probably deserved to see red. Doesnt deserve to go out like that though. One of the best penalties you will see by Ronaldo considering the occasion and everything going on around him.

Great game!

 

[marmor]

Tuned in thinking it'd be a McManaman free zone because he was on last night, only to find they'd actually flown him out this as well. Unbelievable.

Ex-Madrid player mate.

 

[Rook]

dunno looked like a pretty easy pen call. oliver is a good ref. he also likes us.
