Bias in most refs against us is heavily engrained now

Inquest needed. Im not joking
PGMOL will come out this week commending his performance saying he got all decisions correct. It’s a racket.
This reffing is driving me off the conspiracy deep end so hear me out.
How unlikely is it that he has a friend of a friend slipping some money on yellow card bets? It's the kind of thing you could easily get away with as there's no way the FA are ever going to look into it and if anything super blatent in terms of penalties etc happens you can still give them. Yellow cards? Easy to get away with. But to mitigate risk even further who do you pick to do it against? Do it against United of course, because the ABU's and the media are so pre-conceived in their notion that United benefit from decisions that they won't even bloody notice it as evidenced by the muppets commentating today. If I was a ref and so inclined it would be the perfect scheme and the perfect opportunity.

Said it before. This generation of referees grew up watching their sides getting beaten year in year out by United and it boiled their piss
Holy shit, he finally gave a yellow.
Took an orange challenge for him to finally give them a YC
Bellend. Mitoma is about the only Brighton player who hasn't deserved a yellow today.
Seriously, he could’ve advised someone to place on no Brighton cards before 90 minutes
Blows up on 93 as United counter despite the yellow challenge on Casemiro taking over 30 seconds.
Fecking cnut
Honestly makes me feel the whole footballing game is corrupt to the core. There is no other explanation.
He had money on not booking Brighton players in the first 90mins at least. That's the only logical remaining explanation
He’s made a total balls of today but to fair he blew up the first half when Brighton were in around our box.
I definitely think this plays a role. There’s an ingrained bias there certainly.
If anyone that watches this and believes there is no bias (conscious or not) but just incompetence is just foolish.
When all the journos are commenting on it you know it’s bad
Did the same to them in 1st half. They had the ball at the edge of our box
United: 7 fouls, 2 yellows.
Brighton 13 fouls, 1 yellow.
And half of those were stopping counters as well.

Awful performance from the referee. I guess you could give the Casemiro yellow card if you wanted and the Shaw yellow card was the right call. However Brighton got away with everything. Webber (?) from Brighton made so many fouls that just the amount of fouls should have resulted in a yellow
Which ones?
Don't be surprised to see a rush of yellow cards for Brighton in extra time, to clean up the appearance (if they continue making the same fouls).
A number of yellow cards not given and also the Mitoma challenge was a red. Also blew early. It's a "minimum" of extra time you cnut.
Who are?
This needs an investigation at this point.
Danny Murphy just said on the Beeb that the officials have not got a lot wrong today....
Criminal
How the feck is this acceptable?
Ok yeah, not having this performance
Seriously what is going on here?
Terrible ref just bad.
I honestly can't remember a worse ref performance ever
wtf is this s*itshow??
No second yellow 
How’s that not a second yellow?
Absolute fecking disgrace
Mitoma should have been off there
Absolute farce. Watch him score the winning pen now
