its grim up north said:
Liverpool coach just said when he saw City's line up, he thought it disrespectful to the league. Shows how much that chancer knows. They just won your team the league, tosser!
I heard that too! Couldn't believe it, the ungrateful bastard!
Also, whilst he's pulling others up about respect and fairness, maybe he would like to consider how fortunate his team were to even be in with a chance on the final day, after this debacle:

The referee of a women’s Super League match, Stuart Richardson, has apologised after he awarded Liverpool an extraordinary opportunistic long-range goal, from a re-start kick-off, as opponents Birmingham were still celebrating a goal of their own.
The goal stood in a 2-1 win for Liverpool that lifted them to second, within a point of leaders Chelsea, in the English Football Association Women’s Super League. Losers Birmingham are a further point adrift in third and Richardson has apologised to their management after the goal.
The goal came after 87 minutes when, after Hannah Keryakoplis had scored an equaliser for Birmingham, Liverpool’s Fara Williams produced a spectacular lob from the halfway line.
The Birmingham players said they were not ready and did not hear the referee’s whistle, according to their manager David Parker.
“It was a moment of brilliance from Fara, fair play to her,” Parker said. “She spotted Becky [Spencer] off her line and did it just as we were trying to get our shape back. But I can’t fault the girls. We changed it in the second half and we dominated in terms of creating the better chances.”
The Liverpool manager Matt Beard was understandably delighted: “Fara does things like that in training. She’s one of the best footballers I’ve ever worked with in the women’s game. Sometimes you need that kind of brilliance.”
