Liverpool Thread - 2023/24

[I'm With Stupid]

Suspension should be increased for a frivolous appeal. Isn't that the rule?

Yep, but they've made such a fuss over every other decision in the game that you can bet that this one won't be judged on its merits, but on placating them.

Because it was on BT?

Good point but that would be giving them too much credit. Neville said at the time he would have been livid if it had been give against united.

Scouse cunts dont even have a big screen to show VAR decisions, they can fuck right off

 

[bluetonium]

The way Liverpool have reacted, the language and the passive accusatory tone, itself brings into question the impartiality of the game.

Every official now knows, give a decision against Liverpool FC and their job is at risk, they and their families may be named, shamed and targeted, they'll be tagged as possibly corrupt.

How is it possible to fairly officiate them now? How does a referee stamp down his authority, knowing the Kloppites are watching his every move, building a dossier to bring them down, should they lose.

They've alluded to conspiracy, links to the middle east, an agenda against them specifically, when on balance the amount of jammy decisions they've had over the years shows this for what it really was - a lack of clear communication/ understanding, and human error.

And this is the official statement from the club too, not tin foil hat wearing fans. Maybe this is what var needed to get it's house in order, but you can bet Liverpool won't let it drop until they feel they've been sufficiently recompensed and are widely regarded as the saviours of the modern game. We've seen over the years that club will use any and every off field advantage to boost themselves towards silverware, this is no different - a moral crusade against anyone who says Liverpool FC are not the bestest team in the world.

3 days after and they are still going on about it, fucking boring cunts

First decision in four years goes against these wankers, and holy hell follows. There certainly wasn't all this national outcry after the Lord Fishfinger scandal at the swamp last season. Which is still the worst ever VAR decision. It was just past over with the wank media in this country. As was the Trent this, Trent that blatant handball one against us at the Flop End. Fucking hate that club and their fawning media.

They'll be wanting the Smith vs Eubank 2 result changing next.
Probably accusing the ref who stopped the fight of holidaying in Brighton once as a teenager.
Just utter attention seeking t#ats

Offside a farce but accident or not I’d want a red card for someone tackling a city player in the manner Jones did. Most bad tackles are mistimed. He’s gone over the ball.wouldn’t be an issue bar that twat Neville acting like a Liverpool fan girl all of a sudden. Someone did that to Rashford and it’s be a different script

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

They have now publicly said it wasn’t checked because the VAR thought it had been given as a goal on the pitch. So they consciously didn’t check a marginal Liverpool goal because they thought it had been allowed. There is a conspiracy alright, but not the one the scousers are implying.

The PiGMOL have gone backwards under Webb.

They have dropped a massive bollock by essentially admitting they never checked the tech for offside, even though they claim to check every single offside decision.

They're going to need a bigger rug.

All teams have had decision go for and against them due to VAR. Why is it any different this time? I'll say it again that decision at Spurs isn't as bad as the one against City at the swamp last season.
