Re: Today's Football

I can only hope that the Liverpool decisions today may stop some of our fans permanently whinging on about “corrupt” officials making judgements deliberately to our detriment, while bleating about every advantage being given to a “big” club.

Re: Biased Media

But, really - who cares?
It’s someone’s opinion.
That’s all. It won’t help us score more goals, or defend better.
I’m concerned with what the team achieve - not with a professionally partial view of their performance.
