Trying to find a silver lining somewhere.....well there are are some players who probably shouldn't be on the pitch, maybe Mike Dean will send them off.

Imagine his face if he sends Sniv off, and we all cheer.

I feel like this post is made in every "this week's ref" thread. Is it a reference to some old joke that I'm not aware of? If not, I have to say it seems a little paranoid. I notice no one ever posts "he's a big everton fan!" in these threads.

Unless Sly Stallone is the ref or we pull our socks seriously up both tomorrow and Monday could be very, very long nights for us.

Big Dunc could be the ref we'd still get smashed

EFCPaul · December 12, 2016

His two sons are season ticket holders at Anfield as well. This is pure satire.

It's alright lads, I am sure Mike Dean will be really neutral, he just likes YNWA, go to 1:04, you couldn't make it up...

They have to be taking the piss here the FA, he has a clear conflict of interest.

Koeman: "You have to give the referee credit for his passion."

Met him at a charity d..

Nah I mean, we've had it there haven't we? Even before we've begun.

Clattenberg in charge for the Arsenal game too

ToffeeDan · December 12, 2016

Clattenburg tomorrow.. Dean Monday

Would it be any better in reverse? Oh well, stick a tenner on us losing both games..you can get nearly even money on both.. easy £40 back to drown one's sorrows.

If that Dean story is true why isn't someone doing something about it?

Where is this published? In nearly 20 years he's not been near a Liverpool PL game (one LC defeat (1-2) at Sheffield United in 2002 or so) and only done 2 Everton games (away to Wigan 1-1, sent 2 off including Big Dunc - Baines was playing for Wigan) and a 3-2 loss at Man U in 2003..

So if this really is true it's very strange after 20 years he's being allowed to officiate in Liverpool for the first time..

Was just about to ask this. The PL website only shows referee appointments up until 14th atm.

EDIT: Just found it through twitter. It's not showing on the website page yet

Surely they have to change this.
