Even if it's "just" widespread hatred for one team to the extent refs are making decisions because of it, that's still arguably match fixing and deliberate acts.
It doesn't matter if they do it because a higher body has told them, or if they have been given a back hander, or if bias is rife, it's still fixing and it really is obvious.
If and when we go, I expect the club to release a statement is a massive list of all the incidents that have gone against us and ask why.
And that should 100% include issues like Everton not getting a nailed on penalty, or Romero being sent off by a Newcastle fan against United....in the game before Newcastle.
This is bent. One way or another, it's bent.
