Ah he's just deflecting attention away from a loss or trying to at least. I think he knows that we now need something from the Chelsea game or this Christmas could really dent the players confidence.

Yeah since my cousin gave me his crown paints 3-4 year old jersey.
This shit is freaky.
You needs tagline change, Dick.

Rodgers is a prize twat. Not even Fergie at his angriest ever questioned a referee based on his birthplace.
No doubt his crazed paranoia will endear him to the mentally deficient element on Liverpool's support but he's out of line there.
Stick to the tanning cabs and trannies Brendan, and pray Suarez keeps covering your arse.

Is shirt pulling even that big of a deal?
I mean, the difference for me is more in the player on the receiving end. For example, Suarez threw himself to the floor like a clown and the ball was cleared. Kompany in the same situation, stood there and headed the ball into the goal. Is it so hard to figure out which one of the two is an idiot?

Well, this site probably had a big influx of scousers in summer 2005...
Haha I'll take that as a compliment.This shit is freaky.

Which of the 2 between Rodgers and Suarez - agreed but Suarez & Kompany - that's a easy one!
Agreed though - if shirt pulling is a penalty offence, you're going to see 2-3 penalties each match.
Don't really blame him for opening up - that Sterling decision was diabolical and going 2-0 up, who knows what the end result would have been.

I just don't get why it's really an offence at all when a player can just ignore it and head the ball into the goal if he chooses to.
The rules shouldn't be pandering towards players acting like complete fannies. Is the safety of the players being put at risk by their shirts being allowed to be pulled at set pieces?
Of course he didn't, the little angel. He just said stuff like
"Considering we played with ten men - mostly against 12 men - for over an hour, this is a good result for us,"
The United manager said the Portsmouth players had been encouraged because they knew the referee "was on their side".
"It is very difficult for the referee ... at times, he favoured Arsenal"
"You hope you get a really strong referee in games like this," he said. "It was a major game for both clubs and you want a fair referee, you know ... You want a strong referee, anyway, and we didn't get that. I don't know why he's got the game. I must say that, when I saw who was refereeing it, I feared the worst."
And generally made a practise of badgering referees in game, often yards outside his technical area, as if ranting monologues against the refs during games had any place in the game. Something to which he has admitted several charges of abusive language and even got sent off for.
Way to prove Kraftwerker wrong B20, by not posting a single quote referencing a referee's birthplace.
What was worse with Ferguson was the intimidation of all the officials on the touchline as well.
It is really noticeable how United no longer get seven minutes to sort out a difficult game any more. It's three minutes, like normal teams get.

I bet you've got those saved as favourites B20.
I know Fergie's said some pretty dodgy things about refs, hence why I used him as the benchmark.
Think Rodgers' comments about the referee's birthplace go above and beyond most forms of referee bitching.
The funny thing is, if Mason had any bias against Liverpool whatsoever, there were 2/3 easy penalties he could've given against Skrtel as well as sending Suarez off for being a serial cheat.

Well, on the odd occasion the shirt pull could be quite severe, impeding the opposition player from winning the duel - in those cases, yeah it's a foul.
But that's probably a very small percentage so I agree with your point. Though it's hardly surprising that footballers are in general, a bunch of fannies!
None of what Skrtel did was a penalty.
I mean, it was a blatant foul, but if you're not going to give it anywhere else, why against him?

Because you're a ref from Bolton who hates Liverpool apparently.
He's also not mentioned the last time that Lee Mason referee'd City v Liverpool at The Emptihad...
Still cry-arsing about something that happened in 1993 and has never happened since.
Let it go.
If a referee has a close family member that supports a particular team, he isn't allowed to officiate the game. The birthplace of the ref is irrelevant for Mason himself, but it's relatively likely if you were born in Bolton, a close family member might be a City/United fan.
I don't know. It was a poor display, but the worst decision wasn't even his call to make. Classic deflection tactics.
Arsenal 2-0 United in the 90th minute at the Emirates. The keeper is down and has to be taken off. Takes all of two minutes.
Injury time up. 6 minutes. Plays 7 mins 30 seconds.
Arsenal 2-1 United, Rafael wonder strike. There's an example right there. Could have cost us.
Did you just make this all up?
And I'm sure that keeper injury was the only stoppage that day...
What was more likely was you were time wasting like feck because you were beating Man United.
I don't blame you. Everyone does it against us. The amount of time the ball actually isn't in play when we're losing a game is ridiculous. If time keeping was an exact science there'd be 10+ minutes of injury time in some of those games (especially against Stoke).
We outplayed you and taught you a lesson in football that day.
You were awarded about eight minutes because Ferguson wasn't happy you were losing and berated the official when he was set to put his board up. Rodgers doesn't compare to the dark forces Ferguson used.
To be honest I can't remember the game that well.
Whilst you were teaching us football lessons we probably won the league and you sneaked 4th place.
So thanks for the lesson.
Dark forces. Haha. By contrast, I've never seen Arsene Wenger berating the fourth official. Where does his patience and temperament come from?
I did actually say "he didn't." It was a comparative post.
I am going to have to see quotes on this.
I thought they weren't even being screened for their own favourite team, let alone family's.
It could be that they support them, used to be a member or their partner or close family's association means they don't feel they can referee any team impartially.
They will never referee that team or one of their immediate rivals, i.e. a Manchester City fan would not officiate a Manchester United game either.
dark forces. And arsenal can keep teaching football lessons in how to pass the ball around aimlessly while other teams actually win stuff.
Al's doing a pretty good job of making a complete arse of himself these days. Fecking hell, I thought being on top of the league would calm supporters down, not make them act like total conspiracy theorists.
The fixture list is set up for Arsenal to break down, Fergie used "dark forces" to control refs... What's next?
As for Rodgers, his deflection tactics will rightly earn him a touchline ban.

Bitter, bitter bitter. The PL is probably going to City so let's dig up old non stories.Typical Arsenal fans, showing no class when things don't go their way

A doff of the cap to you so. The horrible things you must have seen on here.
He's in remission

Manchester United Death Star

Wenger on the other hand preferred to push forth officials. Physical intimidation.
