Is there even VAR operating at anfield ? similar to the swamp no big screen

The presence of a big screen doesn't make a difference to whether VAR works. It does mean that there is no big screen to tell the crowd what's being looked as clearly as elsewhere.

It helped the dippers they were able to have a good preseason. They seem to be out of the blocks quickly and will probably maintain it like last year. They will canter to the title again. Plus they have the media frothing at the mouth over them, paid the the refs off and have incredible luck with injuries. How do you compete with that ?

i think they are very dodgy at the back still ? also there luck without major injuries has to give at some point
city over the last 3 season have had major injuries to key players and if they was liverpool key players it would make a big difference to the title

liverpool will get the match officials and VAR going in there way when needing something, that is the leveller that city just don't have to fall back on and money can not buy

I like your drift but you're wrong on one point because money certainly can and does buy both 'in ground' match officials and the VAR operators.
Refs have always been open to a bung and with more and more betting on football that's only increased. PGMOL has become a tool used very successfully by international betting syndicates.

i use to think that ? but money is not the key its the value of the job they are in
the officials are under orders from the top ? the system is made up of crooks at the top table and dare you fall foul of not doing your job, its all about united and liverpool because of the so called fan base they have all over the world its sells tv rights to arm chair fans each season, its worth £billions and more than city can offer

And not one Jota about the ball running up his arm before he toe-ended it in! The DT reports this morning that the Whistling Wankers have been told to 'go soft' on the new handball law. I think the minute they walk into Anfield they go soft on anything where a Dipper player breaks any law - Mané's latest excursion into street thuggery and Jota's juggling skills. Won't be long before Liverpool are allowed to pick the ball up and run with it!

Be all over the Webb if they done that

Nope, it's actual money that they take and thereafter they're in the grip of organised crime.

Football's always been bent, it was the key to money laundering from the 70's onwards as rich business owners fully realised their potential for dodging tax rates of 90%
Think about it this way. Target a south american player worth £250k, buy said player for £8M, £250k of which goes to the club, £250k of which goes to the players bent agent and hey presto £7.5M deposited into a south american bank having avoided massively high uk taxation in those days.
Since the late 90's, with the growth in global gambling markets and online accounts, the criminality in the game has gone ballistic.

I'd go as far as to say that to make it to the top level as a referee you'd need to be bent as a nine bob note yourself or in full knowledge of others who are bent but keep your mouth shut like a good boy / girl.
Look at all the major football organisations and all the multi-million pound bungs the heads of said organisations take for awarding say the World Cup?
Those organisation heads are the senior representatives of major footballing bodies, they're bent and they epitomise their organisations because the games bent, perhaps not always at the bottom but absolutely always from the middle to the top.
IMO the only thing that makes any football game a game of chance is that there are vying organisations often working against each other to sway the results.
Look at how certain goalkeepers flock under certain agents, and how those goalkeepers can have an amazingly propensity to throw the ball into their own net in, especially in key games that decide seasons.
I could go on, but I won't because me talking about the obvious on here won't alter how it is and certainly won't convince those innocents who still believe that football's a clean game (and that Santa Clause delivers presents each crimbo and tooth fairy's sneak old teeth away and leave cash in exchange).

As soon as we went behind both started gloating about how we have spent more than anyone/have the biggest squad and no one will feel sorry for us..Neville then said "get the party poppers out".....never hear Neville or any pundit mentioning that the rags have spent over a billion since last winning the league nor will you

I missed a lot of the match because i won't have Sky with its business model of deceit and favouritism but despite this people still fall for it because they are too lazy and too stupid to check the figures which are easily found online.
Too many people think Neville is ok. He is and always be a rag twat.
I cheer myself up thinking of the Goat scoring but more so about how we on the Kippax humiliated him by applauding him and chanting his name.

The presence of a big screen doesn't make a difference to whether VAR works. It does mean that there is no big screen to tell the crowd what's being looked as clearly as elsewhere.

And it is pure coincidence that neither the rags or dippers have screens for the crowd to see what is being looked at.

Doesn't really matter as the PiGMOL lackies usually referred to as referees , only make the decisions which favour the home team anyway as per PL/FA directives.

I see the scouse wankfest has started early this season.
