I still think Man Utd could lose points to Man City.
It aint over yet.

In response to your comment, ITK, it was just my observation of events over the past 15 years. I can't imagine either what possible reason referees have for their apparent favouring of Man Utd. Maybe they feel intimidated by Man Utd's reputation as the best team in the land, possibly only on a subliminal level.
Who knows why but they definitely get the thick end of the wedge when it comes to key decisions.

Yes I was afraid that was my assumption too; they needed to win every game; Man U won't lose another unless it's to Chelsea and then I gather they would get the title on goal difference.

It was an obvious penalty but we were shocking and didn't deserve to win it, a wasted opportunity which will probably put paid to the title.

Why would they do that?
What possible reason could a load of different referees have for favouring them?
