News: Howard Webb REF

Would you like a tissue? A Liverpool fan is the last person who has the right to whine about decisions this season.

 

This.

I don't seem to recall there being such a tremendous uproar when Squidward Riley didn't give us a pen at Wembley, in fact I don't remember being this tremendous uproar when Mascherano dived to win you a free kick at Hull or when your second wasn't disallowed after Lucas' handball. Football's like that, grow up.

 

steven gerrards a diving cheat

 

i havent,but for a liverpool fan to talk about other teams like their side have no cheaters in is ridiculous

 

How many red cards, dives for free kicks/penalties and offside goals have Liverpool benefited from this season?

 

Pedersons pathetic penalty appeal at Old Trafford was widely derided by all and sundry on just about every programme I watched that night.

While there was "contact" between him and Rafael contact does not mean it was a foul. He felt a brush on his shoulder and fell to the floor like a girl looking for a penalty. People use it as an example of penalties not being given at OT but the truth of it is that it was a dive and he should have been booked.

Given that not a month ago he sealed his reputation as a diver ([ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-_AKlrfZVQ"]YouTube - What a dive[/ame]), using Pederson as an example of a foul not being given is ridiculous. Do not try and convince us that that little turd deserved anything but a slap around the face at OT. And stop trying to convince your self that these decisions have undermined Liverpools title bid.

Listen SON, Liverpools inability to get results this season has nothing to do with referee's favouring United.

If you want a helping hand in working out where yout title challenge fell apart you'd better start looking at your home form over Christmas. Home draws against Hull, Stoke, Fulham and West Ham are just the start. Then there's your inexplicable loss away to a 'Boro side that are so poor and weak that if they were an animal they'd have been put down months ago.

While United were in Japan playing in the Club World Cup, you lot were at home dropping dropping points to promoted sides. United came home, got some form together and made you look like mugs. If you want the title, then you need to win consistantly, regardless of what other sides are doing. Had you done that this season, you might have been in a better position. As it is, you tripped yourselves up.

 

Thanks for highlighting that you are a blinkered fan with no grasp of reality.

 

What a pitiful response. Feel free to answer the question I set you earlier. Not doing so merely highlights your ignorance to the reality of the situation. It is particularly tragic that, as a newbie, over half of your posts are in this thead and you only have a single post on the Liverpool board.

 

Wrong.

Liverpool have seen 8 players sent off on 9 different occasions in the league this season - by far the most of any EPL side. Those players are:

Vidic twice, Barton of Newcastle, Folan of Hull, Friedel of Villa, Lampard of Chelsea, Adebayor of Arsenal, Valencia of Wigan and Zabaleta of Man City.


Manchester United have had two players sent off against them in the league.

Wilkinson of Stoke and Robinson of West Brom.

If any side has benefitted from the referees' this season, then Liverpool have a strong case. Almost a 3rd of your league games have ended up being played against 10 men. These are facts dude, not your ridiculous ramblings about one refereeing decision in a game that we won comfortably won 5-2.

Interestingly, you failed to acknowledge my point about Liverpools dropped poonts at home as reason for you being where you are. As a point of interest - had you won those home games and not spunked them away, you'd have 8 extra points. Maybe even 11 had you betaten Boro away, like we did.

Liverpool - always blaming someone else...............

 

That's neither here nor there, dude.

Your assertion that United have benefitted from refereeing decisions more than most is, at best, crude and under-researched. It simply seeks to carry on this ridiculous stereotype that Man Utd and referee's have some kind of mythical pact between them so that we get gifted titles, rather than "merely" being the best side in the country.

In one sentance you say that Friedel was the only one that didn't deserve to walk and in the very next you confess that you "can't think of the others". If you cannot think of them, how can you say that Freidels was the only mistake?

Thank you. Finally some sort of admission of responsibility that Liverpool have been responsible for their own fate this year and not the victims of some terrible conspiracy between the footballing authorities and those nasty-pasties from Manchester.

Liverpool have dropped 16 points at home this season. United have dropped 5. That is where the title has been decided, if you ask me.

 

There's a special place for people like you...

Is this thread about Howard Webb referee, or is it about which team gets favourable calls? I ask because the title suggests the former while the discussion suggests the latter!!!

Now, Howard Webb is an average referee. Anyone who watched him referee Barcelona vs Bayern this season can tell you that he is capable of making terrible decisions.

As for the penalty against Spurs, come on. It was a split second decision which he got wrong. But that's not the reason Spurs were thrashed. They were going to fall apart sooner or later anyway.

The media and fans of other clubs love it when United get a favourable call they don't deserve, so that they can start their favourite pass-time, which is to hit on United. Clubs up and down the country get screwed by refereeingd decisions week in week out. United themselves have been victims of it on many occasions. Yet you never hear much about it after a day or two. But when it's United the uproar goes on and on until the referee has to come and make a statement!!!!

Spurs have been screwed at Ewood Park so many times but no one remembers it.

 

A level headed person would come to that conclusion, yes.

But some people would much rather look for a conspiracy than a reasonable, and logical conclusion.

 

Sadly Webb made a cock up.

Nothing we can do about it now.

Drogba is the worst diver...Ronaldo is much better at it.

 

Howard webb

Yet again he's involved in another controversy, this time in the 2009 confederations cup. More on this other forum thread.

Likes to be centre of attention...wants a job on sky when he retires like Graham Poll

 

I'm not sure what the controversy is. The Egyptian guy intentionally blocked it with his arm. It didn't even look like one of those things where a home fan can distort things to believe it wasn't a foul.

 

It is all about Man u and the Pool because they seem to get all the decisions for whatever reason
