Correct, 100% manufactured bullshit. SKY basically feed their sock puppets with their lines, there was no controversy, it was an obvious decision. Even Web has come out and explained something he knows needs no explanation. SKY set the narrative and BBC etc all follow suit.

Have liverpool ever been beaten fairly? - It's a bit like has Fernandes ever been tackled fairly?

Was Slott even in this country when the Wolves match happened? Is he the memory man? It was pushed by the media. A bit like he claimed to have seen our Swansea line-up before his own match while he was preparing his own team. Just lies fed to him by his PR people or someone on the broadcast team. A fabricated story. A bit like splicing two emails together or editing a quote half way through a sentence. This is the state of modern media.

They (the media) know that they've got two empty weeks to fill, I remember when a hard de Jong tackle broke a Newcastle player's leg, they went on about that for the full two weeks of the international break (so much so that I nearly got sacked - but that's a different story ;-).

Like the Bernardo legitimate goal v Villa at home , they changed the rules mid season to placate the mental rantings of the impartial football media.

The general rage in the media and on social media is quite something since Sunday.

We pay the referees, we're boring to watch, football is boring again, and 115

We're definitely back

Yeah my favourite part of this is that the Premier League is clearly bent towards Man City.

The same Man City they're pursuing for 115 counts of FFP rule breaches.

Gotta say that every scouse fan I talked to yesterday held their hands up ans said they'd been beaten fair ans square. Never even mentioned the van dijk goal
 

BBC headline: 'Man City make ominous statement in brutal lesson for Liverpool'​


Have the BBC used the word 'ominous' in reporting another team's winning effort? Did it appear when the Rags beat them? The word means 'giving a worrying impression that something bad is going to happen'! Perhaps the BBC scribblers just like the word and don't understand what it means, or perhaps they've never used a dictionary. On yer bike, Tim!

As soon as Robertson ducked he was active. If he had not ducked the ball would not have entered the net. It was a clear offside and would have been given every time. He interfered with play.

And he just walks away with no reaction he knew it was going to get looked at

After Sunday, Liverpool Echo headline:

It should be 116!
Webb sniggers at Slot's Sunday suffering
Liverpool F.C. were helpless victims of daylight robbery in Manchester on Sunday. Title hopes were killed by Kavanagh as V.A.R. disallowed................... (zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz)
 
Another new article on BBC about it, 3 days after the match. Anything against us and it’s forgotten about and history moments after full time, but any decision against the Dippers and their victim mentality means its probably going to be mentioned in a years time for its anniversary

Its almost as though the BBC know that articles headed "why Liverpool were hard done by" are pretty much guaranteed to attract traffic to their site...
