Many thanks for contacting us about an article on our BBC Sport website headlined ‘Liverpool for sale? What's going on at Anfield’ (https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63555465).

When discussing the financial capabilities of some of Liverpool’s rivals, the piece now reads as the following:

‘It has become increasingly difficult for clubs to compete with rivals Klopp said recently can "do what they want financially" - namely Paris St-Germain, Manchester City and Newcastle United.’

We’d like to thank you for taking the time to share your concerns with us, which we’ve discussed with the team at BBC Sport. This helps to inform decisions about current and future content.

It's a personal error but where the fuck was the defensive cover?

Long ball over the top. It’d be unusual to have defensive cover behind the keeper.

It’s just one of those things. A cock up that’ll be forgotten by lunchtime apart from by Wiegman.

Ederson get far more pellets on here for not making mistakes!

The BBC are so in touch their article today about the UK and Ireland’s Euro 28 bid refers to our ground as the City of Manchester stadium, demented cunts

I saw that. I think it might be because sponsors named grounds aren’t allowed in certain international tournaments.

Me too. Wonder why they don’t say ‘FSG decide to take money out of their club, which they are entitled to do, but others, eg the owners of MCFC choose to leave the earnings there, so the club can benefit”
Oh, forgot, it’s the BBC and it doesn’t suit their target audience.

As of last week, City are now a subsidiary of a new company wholly owned by CFG, called CFG Mid, which intends to raise £870m by selling shares.
 
Not City related,but thought it’s the best thread to put it in,but why the fuck has there not been a change of heart by ITV in reverting back to an half hourly bulletin.

There’s no need for it to be on an hour,absolutely pointless,if people want to watch the doom and gloom,bbc and sky and a few others have 24 hour news channels,just pissing me off dragging it out over an hour

In 2 and half hours it’s on again,joke this

Ditto response.

Will be doing another complaint follow-up/continue soon.

Asking why those 3 teams, and in particular City and Newcastle’can spend what they want’ , given they play in the PL which has FFP rules that apply to all teams in the same way, and City and PSG also have uefa FFP as well as every other team playing In European competitions. There is no difference in what all those teams can spend. They are all limited by FFP. It’s just blatant racism or jingoistic tub thumping for the ‘istree red shirts.

Am I missing something here? Aren't the BBC quoting Jurgen Klopp? If so, why should they be prevented from doing so? Are they obliged to include a correction if the quotation is inaccurate?

Or is the complaint that the BBC is allowing the incorrect statement from Klopp to go unchallenged, and therefore it could be taken by some people to be fact?
