The funniest thing is that they clearly think so little of Liverpool as a sporting outfit that even a month ago they were still bailing them out of losing positions virtually every game with dodgy penalties. Even with their 15 point lead.The PL and PGMOL have to tie City down to stop the inevitable happening - a City title win.
Hopefully Arsenal win the CL and get some confidence next season to maintain a title challenge and City get their act together again...but if the games authorities and officials want a certain outcome they can do so.
