Not even close!

You really should read things properly and stop being so paranoid.

I wasn't having a pop just at Liverpool fans, I used them as an example as it's a decision against Liverpool thats being referred to in the OP. If you had read it properly before getting all wound up you would see that it's aimed at the vast majority of football fans who only seem to have an issue with poor decisions when it affects their own team yet they claim to be concerned about the greater good of football and the consequences of poor refereeing decisions on the future of football.

That being why I mentioned the Hull goal from a corner that should never have been yet the Liverpool fans (the ones doing the bleating about the cost of poor decisions and how it's ruining football) in this thread didn't feel the urge to complain about that poor decision or indeed the other incorrect decisions I used as examples which favoured Liverpool.

The point being if your only going to complain about poor decisions against........nah I'm bored now.......Bye

How am I going to complain about poor decisions with Hull or any other team when I didn't see them?

I watched my team and responded to the thread about it being a poor decision

If the thread was about Hull and their poor decision and I had seen it then I would also had commented about it being a poor decision

How can people comment on things they didn't see or didn't know happened
 
Quote:So Liverpool fans, were you disgusted earlier today when Hull City scored as a direct result from a corner that should never have been given? Did you all rush to radio phone-ins to complain about the standard of refereeing when Suarez handled the ball into the net in the FA Cup game last year? Were you horrified when Carragher sliced open Nani's knee with a terrible challenge yet only received a yellow card last season?

Ok, and whilst I'm at it, shall I complain against Rooney not getting two yellows, Januzaj on skates again.......blah,blah. You say about us complaining then or insinuating being baissed then just list things that go against Man U?

Complaining footy fans is nothing new is it? It's a national hobby. We love it.

I'll tell you what I will generally complain about, shirt pulling at corners/free kicks (Skrtel being the world champ BTW). Keepers/defenders giving a penalty away and being twice punished by being sent off as well.

The Sterling decision was a shocker and could be seen even without slow-mo, and the city blue shirt should have been the first sight reference of the linesman. Bad decision, we may get one in our favour next week, but giving Liverpool fans stick for complaining - why?


 
The other thing about the Sterling call was they were crossing at speed. Sterling heading towards the goal and defender moving out. I've always thought that calling an offside means the linesman having to actually look at two separate points at exactly the same time. If the pass is played say 40 yards from the line of last defender how is it possible to see both those things at the moment the ball is released?

I've seen several Premiership refs live this season and, between them and their assistants, I am amazed at what they miss in games that everyone else in the stadium sees clearly. Sometimes I wonder whether they really are just mistakes!

20+ thousand see a push/ handball / foul etc eat and they apparently don't. I do, however, think that they are equally crap and not generally biased towards either side. The problem for me is that most officials have not actually played the game to any reasonable level

That's the most irritating thing, the amount of obvious decisions that they get wrong. One that sticks out this season was when an opposing keeper stepped outside of the penalty area to catch the ball, then stepped back in. 40,000 plus saw it, 3 didn't. Other times it's the touchline calls for throw ins that amaze; we can clearly see down the line from our seats and some of the decisions beggar belief.

In their defence, they get one shot at it real time and then their decisions get picked to pieces for every different angle in HD super slo-mo, and it's not as if the players are playing honestly; a number are looking to milk every every decision and will feign contact or injury in an attempt to get the decision, so is it surprising that they get the difficult ones wrong on occasion?

I would disagree with the point about them not having played the game to any reasonable level; neither did Jose Mourinho and that doesn't seem to have hurt him as a manager, whereas many players who have had what would be considered decent playing careers have been considerably less successful as managers.
 
That Hull corner should have been a fee kick to them not a corner.

Who says the Liverpool player would have went on to score anyways,he still had the keeper to beat and judging by his second half miss he would have done well to hit the corner flag.

Or judging how both him and Hart played on and he skipped past Hart to score it has possibly cost us a point

Skipped past Hart while Hart had stopped committing due to the whistle blowing. No one knows if he would have scored neither does anyone know if you would have got a point,went on to win or still got beat but the one thing I do know is as it stands you did get beat and you will go on to continue your 14 years of hurt.:smirk:

And Glasgow Celtic.The only 2 teams I support as in actually put money into.

I thoroughly enjoy going to watch Newcastle getting beat off anyone though and go maybe twice a year to watch Leeds due to mates being avid followers and the day being a good day on the booze.

Following my National team is my main passion when it come to football..........you think you've had it tough over the last few years!;)
