Man City conspiracy theory

[stevenageR]

OK - so I've had a bit of time on my hands recently. Been playing back the highlights of the last 5 minutes and something didn't quite seem right.

A good minute and a half went missing - enough time for us to score and Man Utd to win the league. The turn of events were as follows:

1) At 90 mins - 5 extra minutes added

2) City score their 3rd on 93mins 20 secs (leaving minimum 1m 40 left)

3) QPR kick off at 95:23 (meaning earliest ref can blow is 97:03 secs)

4) Ref blows for full time at 95:42 (a minimum of 1m 21 secs early)

I reckon the remaining time should be played behind closed doors!

There are lizard men out there, hiding among us normal humans. It is all their fault.

[West Acton]

I think the ref bottled it as when they went ahead aload of their fans went on the pitch and he probably thought easier to blow up and get the game over and done with

[stevenageR]

Fair enough if there was nothing riding on it - but 1 goal meaning another team wins the league!?

[sirduncs]

you can just imagine manure fans complaining there wasn't enough stoppage time...

I know and i saw a documentary on it, apparently there are sunglasses available that if worn you can see these lizards from us humans, and all the bill boards subliminally command us to do things

We won and you had secured victory - neither side wanted to play on, as both were happy with their lot.

The ref realized this when, after the restart the ball was hoofed up field to Hart who kept it in the corner.

No conspiracy, as it was as plain as the nose on your face (presuming you have aforementioned nose and face).

he's one of them!! don't want us to kick up a fuss!!

We didn't need or want to score we knew we were safe just as they scored their second our bench was going berserk,also we kicked off and could have done what we liked? taken it into the corner but Bothroyd just booted the ball straight to Hart so they could attack. think a lot of our players wanted city to win the league especially after that cheating C##t Young did what he did not once but twice, also our defending for the 3rd goal augero is let run someone tried to bring him down and Kenny doesn't do a lot to stop the shot. no conspiracy theory? we let them have it.

there could have been another 10min added time - we wouldn't have scored again...how we got 2 for a start is mental.

Anyway - going back to the OP and the timings - it is all up to the referee's discretion. The 4th official can hold up 3,4, 5, 15mins...the ref can blow when he wants.

Also - when there are delays in injury time, there is no "official" amount of time. the idea of 30s a sub is just a made up one - there is nothing in the rule book.

all down to the man in black (ref, not johnny cash)

Reckon the OP is one

As honestly, who gives a flying **** that United didnt win it.

[silvercue]

conspriracy theories are for little girls, farmers and in-breds.

That is they way almost EVERY period or stoppage time is used in every game. EVER. Get a grip.

[ollyhoops]

If anything if you read between the lines when we knew we were safe we let Man City get the goal. I honestly believe we let them have the title.

I did also notice that, and I was furious about it.
But that´s history now.
