ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

I see the racist incident at city has some how got the Liverpool fans involved claiming Sterling is now a hypocrite for not grabbing the city fan and throwing him out the stadium.

When he most likely didn't even know it happened.

They still haven't and never will forgive him for leaving and so they'll always find any excuse to smear him. Then they call us bitter lol

Even Dunc's "see you Jimmy" Scottish burr is more comprehensible than the rambling claptrap Klopp churns out. On a more serious note, I see they predictably dont see the irony in their virtue signalling regarding the City fan and Fred. Flashback to 2012....when that young lad playing for Oldham was immediately visibly distressed by what happened (or kind of didn't, apparently)….

CPS Bring No Charge Over Adeyemi Abuse
A man arrested on suspicion of racially abusing Oldham midfielder Tom Adeyemi
during a game against Liverpool will not be charged with an offence, the Crown
Prosecution Service (CPS) said.
The man, aged 20 and from Aintree, Liverpool, was arrested after match
officials made a complaint to Merseyside Police.
During the second half of the FA Cup third-round fixture on January 6, Adeyemi
appeared to take offence at something shouted from the Kop stand at Anfield.
Adeyemi, who is on loan from Norwich, alleged a fan had
shouted a racially abusive comment at him as he retrieved the ball from near the
crowd.The 20-year-old reported the incident to the referee; the referee notified the
fourth official, who then notified the police.The CPS said that after police interviews with
the footballer and thesuspect, and viewing ''enhanced'' CCTV footage, there was
insufficient evidence to bring any criminal charges.
In police interviews, he admitted shouting at the player, but denied it was of
a racial nature.Witness statements from others in the crowd ''tend'' to support the man's
version of events, the CPS said.
Jane Roden, Head of the Complex Casework Unit at CPS Merseyside, said: ''I have
considered a file of evidence submitted by Merseyside Police, relating to an
incident which occurred when Liverpool and Oldham Athletic met in the FA Cup.
''I have viewed the extensive CCTV footage available, which has been enhanced
to isolate and improve the sound.
''I have also read statements from Mr Adeyemi, the match officials and the many
independent witnesses to the incident, many of whom came forward after the game
to offer their evidence after hearing media reports of the incident.

''There are two important factors I have relied upon when making my decision:
the enhanced CCTV footage and the high proportion of witness statements which
tend to support the suspect's version of events.

''On the balance of all of the evidence, I have therefore concluded that there
is insufficient evidence to bring any criminal charges in this case and I have
advised Merseyside Police of my decision.''
 
City paying the price for not replacing laporte and kompany, the defence is average at best, that's the real reason they are where they are.

Liverpool play leciester, spurs and united before 17th jan, if they continue rotating they could drop points.

Liverpool will eventually drop some points as they concentrate on retaining the Champions league...but an 8 point gap over Leicester is huge... Man City could claw that back 8 points but not Leicester...

At this point, Liverpool can probably afford to lose 5 games and still win the league... It's over...

8 points isnt too big a gap. They are in Qatar when Leics play City. Leics win that one they could play the RS on boxing day to go 2 points behind them.

It's the hope that kills ya....

It's a big week for Leicester...cant see them beating both City and Liverpool, which effectively ends their title challenge...

That last minute penalty in the Liverpool Leicester game really makes a big difference right now...

Either way, Leicester will have a blip, and that added to the 8 point cushion Liverpool already have will see them comfortably winning the league

The whole stadium started the suarez song (who wasnt playing) at seeing a young black lad in tears, it was absolutely disgusting
 
I would prefer them to get through the CL tonight so it gives more games. Anything to make them throw points away in the league. Going out tonight opens things up as well for FA Cup which wouldn't be great for us. We have to look at the overall picture here and not just wish them out tonight
