Mike Dean, the Referee that officiated Man City vs QPR that day:
“Once QPR found out they were safe.. I still can get my head around why they [QPR] kicked the ball straight back. I couldn't get that.”
CITY ARE NEVER GETTING OVER THIS😂😂😂
It has been revealed that QPR players were paid money from an Abu Dhabi company linked to Mancity with the instructions of letting Mancity win the game to win the league in 2011/12 season.
After that city's second goal QPR gave them the ball immediately after restarting play. When they should have kept the ball, using delay tactics. Instead they where feeding mancity the ball.
Go and rewatch the Manchester City vs QPR game from 2012 and you’ll see pretty obvious corruption in plain sight.

❗❗Rio Ngumoha might not be the last Chelsea talent we regret losing. And unless something changes, how many more are we prepared to watch flourish elsewhere? 👀💙
Watching Rio deliver that Man of the Match performance yesterday got me thinking about what could have been if he had stayed at Chelsea. Would he be getting the same opportunities he's getting at Liverpool, or would he still be fighting for minutes in a squad full of competition? That's the question that worries me.
Look at Quenda. Before joining Chelsea, he was already getting minutes at Sporting and making Champions League matchday squads. Now he has to fight for opportunities at Chelsea, where the competition for places is a completely different challenge.
And it's not just about Quenda. We had to send Jesse Derry out on loan to give him the opportunity to develop through regular football. Now we've lost Rio Ngumoha, a massive talent who could potentially have challenged Jamie Gittens for his place.
The frustrating part is that we keep investing in young players, but are we creating enough room for them to grow? Gittens has struggled with availability and consistency, yet Rio is already showing what he can do when he gets an opportunity elsewhere.
Chelsea need to stop treating youth development as simply signing the best prospects. We need a clear pathway into the first team, meaningful minutes and a squad structure that gives these players a genuine reason to stay and fight for their place.
Because what's the point of having all this young talent if we keep watching it develop somewhere else?
Chelsea fans, what needs to change? Should we create more room for our young talents in the first team, even if it means moving some senior players on? 👀💙 #CFC
