I don't buy the notion that they get extra injury time either. When they beat City 4-3, the 4th goal was scored in the 96th minute, so the 6th minute of injury time. They had a segment on Match of the Day dedicated to analysing the time of the ball being in play and out of play and stopped the clock when it was out of play. Turns out the ball hit the net about four seconds before the clock turned to 96mins, yet there was uproar over that goal.
What you have to understand, is that Man. United are on TV more, watched more and hated more, so any dubious decision will obviously be focused on more, whereas nobody cares if Rotherham score an offside goal against Daghenham.
Most of the conspiracy theories can be explained with simple logic. Although watching the match between Chelsea and Barcelona in 2009 made me believe there is corruption in football.
