What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

[Fergus]

Actually UEFA and FIFA should step up. They can claim that the league is not credible any more because of poor officials and could potentially take all European spots from English sides starting next season.

And why not? After all, our delightful Liverpool-supporting friends already have track record at getting other English clubs banned from European competition.

Can’t face reading through the 12 pages since Friday but I’m assuming there are a lot of scouse tears topped off by West Ham and gooner ones. There isn’t a better fanbase to rattle than the Liverpool one. It was the perfect way to beat them.

Yep i said to my mate after Jota went that id love nothing more than a last minute controversial pen to win it.. But the og trumped that lol

I find it amazing at how Liverpool fans always play the victims, when 39 people died at their own hands: “After an eighteen-month investigation, the dossier of leading Belgian judge Marina Coppieters was finally published. It concluded that blame should rest solely with the Liverpool fans.”

Just think about how much more often they bring up Hillsborough rather than Heysel

Poor, poor Liverpool. VAR or not, you win some, you lose some.

I sure everyone remembers this.

It still mindblowing that the linesman can’t see that the ball is way over the line. I always felt the GK should have got a retrospective red card for ungentlemanly conduct. He knew it was a goal. The referee was too far away to see but what was to stop him asking the goalkeeper? Is lying to the referee a punishable offense. This incident along with the Lampard “goal” against Germany are 2 of the worst decisions in football.

I don't know why anyone would complain about Jones redcard. They must check the redcard for malo gusto of chelsea last week. Both are similar incidents and redcards. No one said anything about that and rightly so then why is there so much noise about jonse's redcard?

I didn’t think that was a red card either.

Exactly. I dunno, maybe neither should have been reds but if not then why only the fuss about this yesterday?

Call me a cynic but an above average hystrionic fanbase prone to conspiracy based victimhood fantasies might have something to do with it.

EDIT: fat thumbs (See reply from @Bump for further details)

Social media sites with Liverpool fans are 'uber' toxic today! I mean, they are losing it. One bloke said Spurs should feel ashamed at their club. I tried pointing out that it was the ref and VAR that got it wrong, not the players. He was having none of it. He even said that Spurs celebrating the last minute goal was embarrassing for us and we should not have celebrated. He implied that they wouldn't have if the roles were reversed. I said then you're a liar, or not a proper supporter.

People really don't have any self control or self respect anymore. They seem to have lost the art of debate. SM is now just grown men (and women) name calling!!!!

We have been on the end of or fair share of terrible decisions, this one in particular is a travesty

I still believe to this day that Martin Atkinson should never have been allowed to referee a football game again after this incident. Because of all the players on the floor on the line neither he nor his linesman had a clear clear view of whether the ball had crossed the line or not; it didn’t even touch the goal line.He gave the goal because the Chelsea players raised their arms claiming a goal. That is totally unacceptable behavior from a top level referee. You can’t make a decision on something you can’t see especially on something as pivotal as a goal. It actually should have been a free kick to us for a foul by Terry on Assou-Ekotto.

 

[yiddopaul]

The second red though looked horrific. If our player's studs had been more firmly in the ground, his ankle would have snapped. We've seen these incidents before. So are we now (according to Liverpool fans/pundits - same thing) only to give that a red if the player had broken his leg???

They even had an open bus parade in Liverpool for winning the fa cup. It was on the anniversary of the heysel disaster.
Could you imagine if similar was to happen on anniversary of hillsborough the uproar

 

[Kirito]

I don’t think it’s worth over analysing the reds, both are correct by the letter of the law. Only reason they are being spoken about is because there was a big mistake by the officials and they are lumping in the other big decisions.

 

[tony0379]

Well my live in landlord told me this morning "it's an absolute travesty what happened to us last night and the game should be replayed with foreign referee's" yeah ok mate. I just nodded away in agreement

To this day I can’t understand how players and fans can celebrate a ‘goal’ when the ball is nowhere near the line.

 

[Bigdaddyguff]

Even at the severely lowly levels I have played at I have known plenty of players that could do that ‘crossed paths, no way I meant it’ midfield trip. Not saying he did mean it but it is entirely plausible he did.

Bang on mate, im still a master of it to this day. These fouls stand out a mile to anybody who plays or played football.

 

[yiddopaul]

It was an orange to be fair.

I can't see there was any intent, it just ended up being a serious action when his foot went over the top.

Liverpool's problem was they didn't learn from it.

Intent doesn't matter. He could have broken his leg. Most players don't intend t injure other players. No player deliberately handballs in the penalty area, yet it's still a pen.
