Mark Goldbridge rage quits stream early after explosive rant while watching Man City destroy Brighton

Mark Goldbridge rage quits stream early after explosive rant while watching Man City destroy Brighton

Mark Goldbridge launched into a furious rant.

Mark Goldbridge rage quit his own livestream after launching into an extraordinary rant during Manchester City's demolition of Brighton & Hove Albion.

City gave their Premier League title hopes a huge boost on Thursday with a thumping 4-0 win away at Brighton.

The win moved City up to second in the table, one point behind leaders Arsenal but with one game in hand still to play.

As brilliant as Pep Guardiola's side were, they were aided by a few questionable decisions from the officiating team.

After Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring with a superb diving header, referee Jarred Gillett awarded City a free-kick at the edge of the penalty area when Foden appeared to slip under minimal contact from the defender.

The England star scored - via a deflection - to double City's lead, before he pounced on a defensive error to put the game beyond doubt before half-time.

Julian Alvarez scored City's fourth after the break, but Brighton were denied a potential lifeline when Gillett didn't award a penalty.

Josko Gvardiol appeared to foul Joao Pedro, but the VAR did not overturn the on-field decision.

Before that had happened though, YouTuber Mark Goldbridge has stopped watching the match.

"I don't think I've ever stopped a watch-a-long at half-time, but I'm not going to watch the second half because the Premier League is boring," Goldbridge told viewers of his watch-a-long stream on That's Football.

"It's fundamentally boring, and we need to wake up to the fact that this is not the best league in the world.


"We've got a team who is going to win it for a sixth time out of the last seven [seasons] and we've got three newly promoted teams that are going to get relegated. If relegation is boring and the title is boring then you've got a broken brand.

"On top of that, I'm watching a game that's 1-0 and at a pivotal moment Man City are given a free-kick that's not a free-kick and they score from it.

"I'm tired of it, I'm bored of it. I'm bored of watching a league that is boring and has officiating that belongs on a local park. It's absolutely abhorrent.

"This game is meant to be an interesting game, and I'm turning it off at half-time. So that's a message to the Premier League and PGMOL. You are destroying football in this country with your inefficient officiating and your inability to create a level playing field where one team isn't boringly dominated this league year after year after year.

"I'm out, goodnight."
