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

[MikeH72]

They've lost 5 games on the bounce and they're still only 4 points off the top. It defies mathematics

Arsenal have a game in hand, and Liverpool were 5 points clear a few weeks ago so to be minimum 4 points off the top now is really shocking.

 

[Leylo]

The injury time was laughable honestly the officials are corrupt.... anyway still got beat

They're all waking up really miserable, this is very much adding to me joyful brekky mood.

This advert:



I can't help but feel since that it's a real negative feel on the city.

Every shot is showing disused warehousing, terraced housing (with anfield in the background) and cafes that haven't passed a hygiene rating.

It's as though it's feeding into the stereotype that Liverpool is still stuck in the 80's.

Even the zoom out from the liver building at the end ignores the modern architecture such as the Museum of Liverpool and other buildings in that vicinity.

It’s basically trying to reshoot a few scenes from Shooters. The DJ in the Grapes had me howling. You could hear and pin drop in there and you’d get hissed at. Miserable gaff.

Why is it never called out by anyone in a position of influence?

What in the world could’ve justified 13 minutes of additional time? It’s not like someone suffered an injury requiring a stretcher. They basically play extra time now.

It’s a systemic attempt at match fixing.

Because they are the people that make the rules. If anyone in the media called this out, they’d ensure their career was over within the week.

I couldn't believe it when I checked my phone last night and they were still playing at 90+10. You're telling me there was another three minutes after that??

I know there's a lot more stoppage time in football generally than there used to be, and that's been going that way for the last few years. First time I really noticed it was in the last world cup... but is there another team that consistently gets as much added on as them when they need a goal?

The statistics on that will be out there somewhere, would be interesting to know.

As much as I despise the Bavarian pricks, they have built this organically and were a whole lot smarter a whole lot earlier than other clubs.

This is also exacerbated by the Premier League's insanity which is clearly an advantage to Bayern nationally since they are the only ones being able to offer competitive wages.

I'm pretty sure that this will not last forever. As I'm pretty sure that English football is eating itself.

I used to be angry at the preferential treatment the scab 6 get. But yesterday I could only laugh watching the RS playing 11 minutes of 7 in extra time, Saint Virge's attempted murder via flying elbow not even being checked etc. because I realise that the PL is not far removed from the Truman show or WWE.

I'd rather have the same champion every year (because they just are the best team, at least they aren't actvely helped by refs) with everything else being highly competitive than watch the farcical marketing gag the PL's become.

That’s fair, I definitely wish that the PL had things like the 51% rule and caps on ticket and season ticket prices like the Bundesliga

Would also be nice to have their refs too
