The Drinkwater sending off is an absolute joke If that is a foul never mind a booking, its really time to pack in and play netball. So everytime a player makes contact it is a foul???? How the hell does it work, someone please tell me....and Oliver...because the inconsistency is crippling the game. Pulled him back, deffo yellow card deffo sending off! H

Explain - Obviously I am in the 'we should not have not sold the Berlin Wall' camp -and it hurts - deeply. Any Stoke fan who thinks we have covered his loss should be sectioned , a massive error by Hughes

H I think a lot of these are 50-50 he put his hand on him knew what he was doing but so did Rooney earlier so give both or none , whether its enough for the lad to fall over I doubt , he went down as soon as he realised he was going nowhere

Leicester have shown 'what's possible' this season. It really will be a massive achievement, it shouldn't happen in the modern football era.
3 games lost all season. Amazing.
Some good players allied with steel.
How Wes Morgan has survived in the Prem I'll never know.

He was only just entering the box mate, it's not as if the ball was running out of play out of his control. It's a "cynical" pull back by drinkwater because he'd got away from him. Anywhere else on the pitch you get a yellow for it and he did here. Didn't even really see any complaints from leicester players so no idea why anywhere on here is so up in arms over it. 2 yellows, both WERE yellows, end of story.

There seems to be a lot of people keen to tell us how shit Leicester will be next season, how they will be an embarrassment in the Champions League. I don't mean on this board by the way but all over the place. It's not a given that this will be the case but it could happen and they drift around in mid table next season but the point is this is happening now. Leicester fans couldn't care less. Even if they got relegated, Leicester City 2015-16 will forever be on the Premier League trophy. That's something as a fan you can take with you forever.
They've been one hell of a ride over the last four years, the last minute penalty miss in the play offs at Watford when Troy Deeney scored from the counter attack, Championship winners, back from the dead to stay up and now this. Not jealous me!

No doubt he missed/got it wrong with the rooney incident but that doesn't mean he should therefore intentionally get it wrong if someone does it later on. Do that and where does it stop? Aren't we usually going mad at refs for "evening up" decisions they've got wrong by giving soft decisions at the other end? The standard of reffing certainly isn't very good at the moment but any idea of being wrong at 1 end so therefore you should let someone else get away with it as well isn't going to help that is it?

Nailed on pen for Leicester that you know would have been given in the other box. Oliver has no spine. Never a penalty. If he'd tried to go past him yes, but he just jumped straight into him. Absolutely no way of getting out of the way. Watched United all season, no other team has come close to Leicester on chasing the ball down and running hard. We were nackered at the end but they just kept on coming.

What a surprise that Oliver "didn't see " the blatant tug back from Rooney. Never seems to see Smalling holding in the penalty area either

How many times in a game do players arms make contact, players use arms to gain advantage all of the time. When they do are all these bookings? We will down to 7 a side by half time if so. yes he put his arms on him but I can't see how he pulled him back, it was the faintest of contacts and the player was going nowhere. Was Drinkwater the only player to put his arms across another in the penalty area in that game. I don't think so. You can't run with your arms straight by your side, and its difficult to run with your arms in the air.

I thought United played some great stuff in the opening 30 minutes or so. Lingaard is looking to be some player, very exciting for England with him and Delle Ali coming through.

Depay actually touched Drinkwater first, maybe he should've thrown himself to the ground and screamed.

If that is a booking and therefore similar offences are bookings then there is no way Ryan Shawcross, Robert Huth, Smalling or most other defenders can last 90 minutes in any football match. They are committing half a dozen bookable offences per game. He hardly touched him, after watching it several times I still don't think he pulled him back, he touched his shoulder with his hand, thats not really a 'dragback'. The player did not go down at the point of contact but only when he realised he had lost control of the ball & its not true that Leicester players didn't complain in fact it now seems as if Drinkwater will have his suspension extended for abusing the referee.

H I think a lot of these are 50-50 he put his hand on him knew what he was doing but so did Rooney earlier so give both or none , whether its enough for the lad to fall over I doubt , he went down as soon as he realised he was going nowhere Michael Oliver is inept cunt who clearly has never played the game at any level, including the school yard. Do we really need any explanation as to why his eyesight failed him when Rooney pulled gray back right in front of his eyes yet easily and quickly spotted the indiscretions of Drinkwater? Lets not forget that this is the same ref who dermed shirt pulling in the box a clear and indisputable penalty yet today ignored 2 attempts in 5 minutes to rip the shirt off huths back, again right in front of his eyes. Oliver is one of the biggest tossers involved in our national sport.

Any Stoke fan who thinks we have covered his loss should be sectioned , a massive error by Hughes what a monumental fuck up. People have short memories and are trying to re-write history. Huth was not in Hughes's plan as a starter and Huth didn't want to sit on the bench. Hughes wanted a ball-playing CB and identified Wolly to fill the bill with Muniesa, Wilson and Cameron and back-ups. He didn't plan on the injuries and Wolly hasn't worked out. However, like it or not he had a plan that didn't involve Huth. Get over it and move on.

Joe...I can't understand how you don't think that was a penalty. The defender totally blocked the player off the ball and kicked him after Mahrez had played the ball towards the goal?? Its a foul anywhere else on the pitch. When you compare the level of contact there and then the slightest of contact Drinkwater made to get sent off......well its not comparable!!!! I was wrong mate. Deffo penno.

I wouldnt expect your average mouth breather to care about that though. How would you know what the commentators thought? Surely you were at the game? The commentators and 3 panelists all thought it was a penalty. The only bloke that didn't was the ref, who funnily enough Wayne Rooney went on to describe as the best ref in the country post match. Why wasn't it given you ask???

The same ref who sent off Shawcross for penalty box holding but then let's Smalling do it week in week out and refuses to look for it
The same ref who refused Stoke the stone wall penalty last season when a goal bound header was handled against ....yep you've guessed it
And he same ref amongst all the others who let Fellaini constantly commit assault after assault everytime he takes to the pitch but the media also refuse to take it up
It's sickening from those at the top
