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

Ronaldo and his partner lose their child: YNWA is the RS fans response - neglecting to understand, even after 60 years, that the song is a lament for a woman who has lost her husband KILLED in a robbery (Carousel)

Mo Salahvates before the Derby - what arrogance!

The song is sung by her husband, who was killed as he robbed a shop. It's a lovely song about being stalked from beyond the grave by a dead criminal.

Keita must think all his lucky days have come at once with the RS after his disgraceful disciplinary record in Germany... even 4 reds in one season alone. Hes not the only one living a charmed life with UK refs as you say. In addition to those, I'd add on Arnold, Van Dyck, Milner who throw their weight around illegally but seemingly without even a word off refs. That Konate fella will probably join that unspoken list too.

I've said it before, I wish someone would call them out on this in the media or do a compilation of the ones they get away with. Of course, their national treasure status remains untarnished with the media sheep so like "The Kings New Clothes", noone in the press/TV would dare.

Mourinho would of done that!
But our media chased him out of the country once they got new toys in Pep & Klopp

tbf Souness mentioned it a couple of times but no one else followed up with it.

It's absolutely criminal how many times they get away with it. 3 yellow card tackles before they get a yellow card whilst other teams do one tackle and its a yellow instantly.

It's clear bias game after game. We can't even go there on Sunday and kick the crap out of them as we'll be carded left right and centre. What will be needed is our team to be disciplined, stick together and not roll over or be bullied. Thats a lot easier said than done in the best of times but how they're allowed to bend the rules in their favour means the advantage is pretty much impossible to overcome.

See I've raised this with Kopites I work with before. My favourite answer is that, thanks to them (of course), it has now transcended it's humble Broadway and Hollywood origins to become a universal symbol of hope and fortitude... Universal if you support their weird death cult, that is.

Christ how I’d love it if we got a result and Frank headed off down the touch line beating his chest Mourinho style

Five Live doing a phone in on Manure as I write this.
A lady City fan came on and said she'd like to say something before her main point. She then tore into the BBC for as she described it, the perpetual love fest from them for all thing RS at the expense of other clubs. Silence was deafening from the panel.
