Liverpool Thread - 2023/24

To be fair, there is a legitimate question of how far you go back to look for infringements. And for me, you go back as far as it takes to fuck Liverpool over. They love things that happened ages ago.

They went about all the way back till they found something when Raz thought he’d scored the winner against Tottingham in the Euro game yet failed to spot their winner being scored with a hand so it’s hardly a new occurrence, to us anyway, and funnily no media outcry or even a mention?

Have to say that I don't see the big deal. Ball off the chest onto the arm.... handball!
We got what we deserved out of that game which was....nothing.
The same as the Luton game, lacked any real urgency or passion and only started playing for the last 5-10mins.
Lets hope the last 2 games act as a wake up call to the players and Klopp.

Naah, let's not.

Anyway, it was good to see Liverpool went Toulouse in France. Personally, I thought they were Toulouse at the back.

How the hell are they claiming a clear as day handball is them being robbed? Theres zero controversy about it.

Some might say they just love playing the victim...

Jamie carragher will be giving you a special mention on Sky later

As much as I dislike him and usually savour him showing himself to be a terribly sore loser and blaming grass length etc, to be fair, he was actually really graceful immediately post match- didn’t make a big deal of the refereeing, complimented Toulouse and criticised his team.

Without seeing Toulouse’s facilities I have never heard such loud celebrating in the background of a press conference, so someone might have been taking the piss.

The presser was held in a tent outside the ground, surrounded by home supporters. I kid you not.

Klopp, arteta and ten haag have made themselves look a bit small time these last few days all crying about injustices.
And i would say, not one has anything to actually moan about.

Fuckin get on with it. Your teams werent good enough on the night.

And love it when klopps mask slips and the jovial , fag smoking, goes for a pint, smily german is replaced by a sinister bully

Just like united local fans are a tiny minority of your fanbase, live with it

Don’t worry I have accepted that a long time ago my friend.. the Out of Town and tourist fans are welcome to it.. I withdrew my support years ago.

 

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

Not seen their "disallowed for handball in the build-up, European away goal" from last night, is it a worse decision than Alvarez's "disallowed for handball in the build-up, European away goal" against Young Boys?

I know it'll mean more to the media, it always does; but was it a worse decision?

Just another case of European application of the rules, move on, nothing to see here.
They're only talking about it because the scummy twats lost.

I see they've suffered a "controversial loss" again. (BBC)

Why can the red shirts never just lose fair and square? Why does the entire story always have to be a decision they thought they didn't get?

Grief seems to just follow that club everywhere

It’s the outrage in the media as well for what was a correct decision,do you reckon they’d be outraged if it happened to us they’d be writing just get on with it and these things happen..

Everyday incidents become grief-filled moments for them.

Normal people face difficulties or obstacles at every stage of their lives: at work, relationships, finances, whatever. Facing up to and adjusting lifestyles accordingly is something most human beings do on a regular basis. So regular we don't even realise we are doing them.
But not them. No, not them. It's a sign of their insecurities that they have to make a drama out of everything that happens. "Didn't get a free kick when Salad was impeded in the 68th minute? Never mind, we'll organise a trip to the Wailing Wall for you." "Bingo was told to get back into the technical area by a referee? We'll hold a mass protest in the city streets just for you people and disrupt everyone's lives. We'll organise a general strike with Mick Lynch and do a re-enactment of the Jarrow March for you, you poor hard-done-by parasites."

Or maybe just accept that we all have our ups and downs? Human beings, businesses, domestic relationships, everybody suffers the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune now and again - not just you.

Brilliant post and summed up perfectly..

There'd be pictures of Pep aghast with stupid headlines like Cracking or Lacking Hunger or "As Pep gone as far as he can with City".
The divide in media coverage between us and the red tops is nauseating

said exactly this after the game last night, mcmanaman, spitty, neville, keane, scholes, hargeaves and wio and even richards for us, should be allowed nowhere near games that involves their teams, the bias creates a narrative that doesnt exist.

After the game the two studio pundits who arent associated with liverpool rightly surmised that the ref called it right, but the dipper press and pundits are trying to create a narrative that it was controversial.

Surprised this was allowed to be posted on HYS. Great post.

When the rags say that we weren't their derby it was just dig at how bad we were, it was a way of insulting us.

If you're a rag from Manchester it has always been the Manchester derby that mattered.

It was Ferguson who started and perpetuated that myth. As you say to insult us. He also condoned the banner. A nasty, horrible piece of work he was / is.
They’ll be no tears from me when he finally drops off his perch.

When VAR first came out they went back way further to disallow a goal for the Chav’s against the Dippers so they can fuck right off.
