RAWK Goes Into Meltdown (2011/2012)

Ridiculous penalty awarded against WBA. Could anybody make a count of the number of ridiculously controversial decisions that have gone Liverpool's way this season? Not surprisingly, i don't see them complaining about the league being crooked, or referees being bought by SAF, or the media persecution of their beloved club, etc.
 
Its not RAWK but they are still Liverpool fans

red scouser (Liverpool): Is it me or is it time for Fergie to retire? He seems to be envious of Liverpool and without the unlimited funds at his disposal would be a very mediocre manager.

kheerdali ibrah (Liverpool): we all can feel that he is afraid of liverpool thats why he want the Fa to charge luis, well fergi you are very intelligent but for me you should be more afraid of city than liverpool unless you think liverpool can end 2nd and above u!!!!!!

Fergie surprised at racism rows - Manchester United News, Transfer Talk & Gossip | TEAMtalk

I find that Liverpool do get a lot of help from the refereeing teams, however, I thought this time it was a penalty and the only softness about it was in the head of the defender who made a challenge when it was not really necessary.
 
I agree with the poster above. To be honest, it is irrelevant whether it was/was not a penalty. The whole league knows what Suarez is like, as a defender do not give him the excuse to go over your out stretched leg. The ball was out of the box oer at least going out of the box, no danger and the defender sold the jersey. Blame him for niave defending more than anything else.

I agree don't know what all the fuss was about . Straight up foul in the box definite penalty
 
I was having a discussion with the wife on Saturday and came to a conclusion - Liverpool are trying to put together the ugliest football squad ever known in club football:

Perhaps it's a new award the Premier League are running, bit like their beloved Golden Glove? Times are getting desperate at Anfield remember.

Really? Mocking Liverpool because their players are apparently ugly? Go away and read your Cosmopolitan and Marie-Claire.

Looks like they've got it sewn up then, some of them look deformed

Let's be realistic, United's millions of overseas fans (esp girls) has a lot to do with Beckham & Ronaldo...

Perez might know little about football, but he knows the business...

No picture of Jay Spearing?

They must be making a Lord of the Rings follow up in Liverpool. It would be difficult to find a scarier collection of orcs and goblins.
 
Jay Spearing and the lad above him are fecking scary.

Imagine shutting your locker and Spearing's face revealing behind where the open door laid.
 
Ever since signing for our club, Luis Suarez has been on fire. Not literally of course, but metaphorically. He has scored plenty of goals and missed many more chances, but he has proven to be an exciting on-the-field talisman of the future we all hope is just around the corner.

The influence, example and hope that the Uruguayan brings to not only our team, but our whole club has clearly not gone unnoticed by our rivals - especially a certain Alex Ferguson. His recent accusations of diving and Patrice Evra's complaint of racist abuse, which he forgot to mention to the referee during the match (convenient, huh?) appear to have been designed simply to unscrew a few nuts on the wheels of Suarez's Premiership career.

Ferguson clearly sees Suarez as a serious threat and will be privately ruing passing up several opportunities to sign up one of the most exciting talents the Premiership has seen in recent years. For a player as capable as Suarez, £22m is a great deal - and the United boss will realise that. Harry Redknapp has already admitted that he made a mistake by not signing the striker in January, although I'm not sure Suarez would necessarily have chosen White Hart Lane over Anfield, but there you go.

Prior to joining us, Suarez had a bit of a dodgy reputation garnered through biting an opponent and causing a whole contient to despise him by handballing during a World Cup game with Ghana - and then wildly celebrating his outright cheating. I personally wasn't impressed with that side of his game, but was eager to see what else he would bring to our team. And I haven't been let down yet – either by the quality of his play or lack of the supposedly sinister side of his game. Suarez is nothing if not consistent. He troubles defences throughout matches and is a non-stop worker, akin to a Dirk Kuyt with the skill and pace his effort warrants. He has been a revelation and has left us all feeling a hell of a lot better about Fernando Torres's acrimonious departure to Chelsea. He has all the makings of being a legend at the club one day and I'm sure I'm not alone in hoping he does all the right things to make that happen.

Back to the sour faced old git from down the M62. Since that 1-1 draw at Anfield a few weeks ago, commentators, pundits and journalists have suddenly taken to regularly mentioning Suarez's penchant for diving. Throughout the Norwich game, which was the week after our encounter with United, the commentators stated that Suarez was partial to going down "a little easily" and was clearly not getting anything out of Peter Walton that evening. And I believe that is a direct consequence of Alex Ferguson's accusations of him "diving around all over the place" after the previous fixture.

How a manager who has overseen the Premiership career of serial diver Cristiano Ronaldo can believe that he can afford to throw rocks around his heavily mortgaged glass abode is beyond me, but the media lap it up and pump his opinions as if they are gospel.
Throughout the Norwich match, Walton appeared determined not to give 'the boy who cried 'Wolf'' a single concession. Norwich's personnel appeared to also have fallen for Ferguson's trick and were screaming at him to get up every time he was put to ground - whether it be by a fair or foul challenge. It just goes to show how much affect the United boss can have on the game - and it needs to be stopped by means less frantic than 'Rafa's rant' of 2009. Kenny is a shrewd operator and will have a much better knowledge of how to deal with his cranky counterpart from Old Trafford, fortunately for us.

The games that followed the Norwich match showed just how much influence Ferguson's words have had over the rest of the English footballing world. The fans of both Stoke and West Brom booed our little Uruguayan striker from the outset, and that pantomime activity intensified after he had put each team to the sword.

As Chris Waddle told the masses viewing the ESPN coverage of the West Brom match: "They need to see the replay, because that was a blatant pelanty (sic)". It was refreshing to hear the commentary team of ESPN point out that it was in fact an illegal challenge and should have resulted in the penalty that was awarded by Lee Mason. Although, Suarez's newly acquired reputation clearly preceded him as the home fans continually chanted "You don't know what you're doing!" at Mason throughout the rest of the fixture, which had an element of truth about it when he and his assistant failed to award a penalty for Steven Reid's handling of the ball later in the first half. Whether or not that could have been classed as a penalty or not, there was no way Mason was going to award it to us thanks to the abuse he had already received from the Albion masses. Another indication of the inconsistencies of refereeing in modern football.

I won't go into the Patrice Evra accusations as we all know that is a subject that is too raw for discussion without contention and emotion. But I will say that after the Frenchman's prior accusations against Steve Finnan and a Chelsea groundsman, it does look a little too much like an underhand weapon called upon a little too often. Also, not mentioning it to the referee during the match appears a fatal own goal. Even so, the FA has delved even more than usual over this and luckily it hasn't had the desired effect (of United) to derail El Pistolero's good form.

He seems to be a man of great courage, mental strength and character. We should all have been very aware that he doesn't care what others think after the handball incident against Ghana last Summer. So the continuation of his good form should come as no surprise to anyone - perhaps with the exception of the devious Emperor Palpatine of the piece, Alex Ferguson.

We're back and our old foe knows it.

Cliff notes:


Fergie controls media
Evra has made accusations of racism before
Kenny has Fergie's number
The reds are marching up the hill again
 
It genuinely does sicken me that they continue to treat that as fact. I'm not sure if it's down to how gullible and stupid they are or if it's down to malice.

To be fair when Tevez was here, all we needed was Ribery to complete the set of Rooney-Tevez-Ribery.
