    That was the most blatant handball by the Bruges player.
    It was a red card. It was a penalty.
    Why did it take nearly 4 minutes to confirm it?

    Personally I’d look for any way out of giving Man U a penalty :D

    I always thought that Man Utd automatically got a penalty each game.

    I notice we had what looked like a blatant penalty denied last night. I know people don't like it but can't help but wonder what difference var would make to some of our games
