Dress this up all you like, clattenburg is a cheat, not poor, not overcome by the occasion and not a bottler, a cheat. Plain and simple. He's done it on so many occasions , nothing to do with the "emotional day".
bang on the fucking button.
so many folk confuse bottler with cheat. i,d say the man has got plenty of front, plenty of bottle to stick to his gameplan. which was to ensure the great liverpool team of 2014 won at any cost.
And just when , did liverpool as a team , decide that they could jump and lunge into dangerous tackles with such frequency? That is not a big brendan trait..thats something which the players decided they could get away with knowing that the ref was on their side. Whatever pursaded suarez to make that appaling challenge on Michael, so early in such an important game... and then, for the remainder of the game basically take the piss by falling to the ground on four or five occasions, continue to put the ball into the net twice when he knew he,d been pulled up for offside.......did Luiz , at any time show the slightest worry that he may be sent off ? No. he knew he could take the piss regardless cos the ref was a cheat. two cheats together.
Disgusted at Clattenberg. Suarez made me want to vomit...and Sterling ? good player, no doubt about that, but now learning to fall to the ground at every challenge and be in the refs face trying to influence him- playing the Suarez way.Not bad for a little tough guy, up for beating his girlfriend up and gets off when she fails to attend court.cunts all of them.
