BagOfCrisps 24 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Got to admit it sure looked like you were robbed. As were Fulham (?) who had one of those "goals that goes over the line but the ref didn't see" annoyingly disallowed. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 yeah i think Liverpool were definitely the better side, looked in control and I didn't think Chelsea had much attacking impetus Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 The ref from that game has been dropped and his boss has apologized personally to Benitez! Never heard of that happening before. Doesn't give us the 2 points we deserve though. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 Great atmosphere yesterday at Anfield but lots of anger at the ridiculous penalty. We should have won. Fantastic to be able to be there for the first home game of the season. Had a great day. Back to Japan now................ Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 Quote: Rob Styles has apologised to Liverpool after admitting he was wrong to award a penalty to Chelsea during the 1-1 draw at Anfield yesterday. The match official has accepted he made a mistake in penalising Steve Finnan, the Liverpool defender, for a foul on Florent Malouda, the Chelsea midfielder, and as a result he will not be given a match to referee this weekend. "All referees enter into matches hoping not to make any mistakes but understanding that they may happen, what none of us want is for any mistake to potentially affect the result of the match," Styles said. "Yesterday, in mistakenly awarding a penalty, I accept that I may have affected the result of the match and for that I apologise." Referees' chief Keith Hackett has confirmed Styles will not take charge of a match in the Premier League next weekend after his performance. Doesn't give us those 2 points though does it. Why oh why don't they bring in rules that allow for these jokes to not happen? Link to post Share on other sites

2pints-mate 0 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 It wasn't a penalty obviously. Refs seem to be getting a) increasingly shit and increasingly annoying with each season. Of course we'll never know if it would have ended up 1-0 or not but that decision certainly had an impact. Feel sorry for you scouser ( but will accept the point ) Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 A civilized game like Rugby Union have trial by video before any suspect try is given. Why can't the FA do something like that instead of doing sweet FA. Link to post Share on other sites
