And now a further suspension and fine for bringing the game into disrepute!
How dare you disrespect the holy PGMOL? That’ll learn ya!
You’d make a great debate team…
Is it difficult to accept that it’s possible you think we played badly because of ref decisions, and Rab thinks ref decisions have been shit but that we have had shit ref decisions before and played better/won despite that, and that both are valid positions to look at it?
Is it such a big disagreement? Because looking at the discussion you guys are having, along with @RER, it reads worse than it is, you two look ready to take it outside, or spit on the ground, or something…
You basically both agree that ref was shit, and the small difference is that Rab thinks Evertonians would complain also had we won (I don’t agree with him either on that, by the way).
You basically both agree that we didn’t play well, but the difference is that you think we couldn’t have played better because of Oliver’s decisions, Rab saying we should have played better despite those and have done so in the past - I’m with Rab on this one by the way, I think it’s actually a fact (?!), though @RedOverTheWater wrote it in a way that I agree more with.
And instead of establishing what you see the same and what differently and move on, you focus on a small detail to prove his whole point wrong (ref grievances). As if you “lose” if you don’t convince him…
Big deal, you disagree on details. Do you guys have some kind of past beef?
Both can be true. The ref affected our performance, but we too were far from best. There were times where we looked like the team that lost to Plymouth.
Has Slot been charged?
Why bother explaining the sunrise to a blind man who insists it’s always dark.

Nope. I was just riffing on the theme.
I’m not sure who it was, I think perhaps @Sportbilly1966 who pointed out that the refereeing took away a huge part of our game in high pressing, so I think if you can’t do that and have to rejig in the middle of the game, it makes perfect sense that it would take you some time to adapt. If you think we looked like the team that lost against Plymouth that would also make sense given that they had to first adapt to a change in plans in Jones not playing, and then Gomez getting injured.
Point is, it’s always odd that people expect us to somehow be able to overcome refereeing displays like that where it’s not just major decisions, but every minor decision against us.

Slot is normally calm and collected.
He showed passion because he KNEW the team were cheated out of points.
Curtis reacted to that toerag inciting Liverpool supporters. Again, a bit of passion.
Oliver once again made himself the man of the hour.
He cheated us with the Pickford assault on Virgil.
He cheated us with the Hendo goal in that game.
He cheated us last night.
Most discerning supporters recognise the performance was sub par. Most also recognise that the bias/corruption/ arrogance/ineptitude of Oliver cost us two points.
Most discerning supporters understand that you can play below par and still be cheated.
You see it as an opportunity to have a go at our players and staff.
You are consistent with your inane criticism, but this is mind blowingly ridiculous.

It was Sweeting that mentioned it.

Best summary I have seen.
All the shit aside, the fact remains we were in a winning position and perhaps could have done more to close it out.
Ah well…

Anyway, 7 points, no injuries, most players looking rested and ready. We’ll take that. But just to point out what the lads had to fight against last night:
Liverpool 63% ball possession
Everton 37%
Fouls
Liverpool 20
Everton 10
Everton players were fouled every 1.66 minutes when in possession
Liverpool once per 5.66 minutes
First goal from a non-existent free kick (think there were 7 of those dives).
Second goal from a blatant fouls on Konate not given. After a blatant foul on Salah not given in the other end.

Listening to videos of Utd fans moaning about how fucked they are is cheering me up.
Am I a bad person?

Roughly translated as im chatting shit and have no valid point.
The point that we could have played better and won despite being screwed by Oliver is not valid? How?

It’s understandable to want to blame Sweeting for everything, but let’s cut the poor lad a bit of slack. He’s doing his best.
