Liverpool vs the tainted financial cheats

I wonder if Noel &  Liam

... will show their ugly mugs.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ......

A game that both teams can not afford to lose.

bookies arnt buying in  to hostile atmosphere,l,pool 2,s at home

City punted from 2.7 to 2.2 so far this week. Doesn't help Liverpool that they have no strikers available for this one.

Apparently Szoboszlai and Mac Allister could be out as well .

i cant see Liverpool scoring. City will get a nice warm reception and the 3 points. 0-2

EPL now about as plausible as the WWE.

No Isak or Gakpo so we haven’t got a forward. Lewis Koumas maybe central striker

This is also a very awkward game for VAR,they have to be very neutral.

Maybe with so many Liverpool plays out, City are the bet for some financial interest?

lay Liverpool is the bet to be having.

Remember we had loads of injuries when we played Barcelona

true, its a game of soccerball, anything can happen, especially in the cauldron of Anfield. Pity its not under the lights, I think that makes a big difference to the atmosphere.

looking forward to this one, fascinated to see how it turns out, but not touching it betting wise.

"City came in a different entrance around the back of the Anfield Road end to avoid the build-up of Liverpool fans"

Already a million
MATCHED

no szoboszlai confirmed. Liverpool bench as weak as pee

Betfair getting excited
Gota 4.00 kickOFF

Gone with Citeh win

Hope citeh run away with the title to be honest.
all the sweeter when it's torn or tarnished.

This game could be
BANANAS!!!

thicko Warnock doesn't know what a maul is.

Handbags

Disappointing game so far...

Barcola might turn out to be almost as big a flop as Wirtz.

0-0 HT.

plss-poor game

I was expecting a caldron of noise and huge banners. What happened?

Barcola will not be a flop and there will be goals in second half get on

Liverpool have done well first half, but i think Mancheater Cheaty will step up a gear second half.

I was expecting a caldron of noise and huge banners. What happened?


tv microphones are geared towards the voices of the commentators, so crowd noise doesnt seem as loud as it actually is. And banners were prevalent pre kick off, but cant fly them during the game as no one behind them would be able to see the game

The Scousers love a chance to bleat

Damp squib.

Red card Grav.

And neither one worthy of a yellow.

Ref screwed Liverpool over

Never 2 yellows for that.

Was Liverpool's best player

Haaland

0-1

0-1, pity. Liverpool title challenge gone already.

Pick that one out,you bleating car thieves

And 2 mins later.........i wander how prescient of the 'punishment' coming citehs way.........

0-2

All that money spent finally paying off

0-2

says a theiving 'stab yer granny for a fiver' cockney gobsheyt.....

In all seriousness it does leave a better taste seeing this team win now.

The sooner they are gone the better.

Bitter taste. Not better

Not for me.
I would support an Iranian eleven against them.

Olee

3

Going for 115 points

Dire for Liverpool, and Warnock's dull as ditch-water commentary somehow makes it feel even worse.

You can always depend on the bleating Carragher for a balanced view

Warnock "can't see Liverpool winning the game at this point". F**king genius!

They have been battered at home by a vastly superior team

liverpool without 4 world class players. Its a hollow victory for Mancheaty Cheaty stained with the bitter taste of corruption. Will they bribe the appeals panel ? nothing short of kicked out of the football league will suffice.

No huge banner. No caldron of noise. Just City fans oleing. walofs!

were you there ?

How sweet it is.
They came to bury Caesar, only to find out he is alive and well and will continue pounding them into submission for years to come!

This is such a beautiful result.
In so many ways.

Not least because it shows up what English football could be if the likes of Liverpool get their way.
Dominance from the red cartel who aren't all that good.

I mean, 12 months ago we were looking at Liv as a shade above evens to win a second title in succession. Only thing is they have no clue. They bought Wirtz, Isak, Ekitike and now Barcola and they have gone backwards.

City come along, show you how to buy players and the haters can't hack it.
Wonderful to witness.

Yeah, they cheated.

If that's what turns you on then
great stuff.

City's original cheating in edwardian
times led to the growth of man utd, who
snapped up players when Citeh were forced
to auction their squad.

So who knows what the unintended consequences of this recent cheating
will be

The players never cheated.
It is a simple as that.
The Punishment should have been stated with the verdict

How do you know the players havnt cheated?

Manager was paid in illegal manner, how
would we know players were not also?

Players simply wouldn't be there without
cheating...

There is 1 ref based in Merseyside. He's never officiated Liverpool or Everton as he is not allowed.

There are 3 Manc refs. Taylor, Kavanagh & Tierney. They've refereed Utd or City 209 times.

After the Prem look into City they need to look into the PGMOL.

Ex twitter

You are a twenty four carat cretin,YHTL.
Good night

You've got to feel for Man City. Even if they did what they were accused of, all they did was inflate their sponsorship closer to the levels enjoyed by the red cartel through the same period.

From the faux furore this has generated you'd think they had at least been playing 12 men, paid off refs, and kidnapped opposition manager's first born sons.

Quite how the P/L allowed this to drag on for all this time beggars belief,jamee

Quite right Irons.


Nobody talks about this...

Total sponsorship revenue 2009 to 2018:
Man Utd £1.56bn
Chelsea £1.2bn
Liverpool £1.1bn
Man City £950m
Man City according to the Premier League Independent Commission £119m
Tottenham £900m
Arsenal £724m

just shows mancheater cheaty aint a big club

FFPR were brought in simply to make sure that the Big Teams remained just that,with no possibility of smaller Clubs be able to challenge them

newcastle united have saudi owners. they have played to the rules. how are they doing ?

They are Shyte though,TTT

smaller clubs can challenge if they have proper scouts and coaches. leicester city spring to mind

BTW,the rancid Stavely is trying to buy in to my team now

exactly uti, and thats where city should be

Yes,TTT.
Leicester are now dropping out of every Division they go in

too much money in footbalcl now. where there is money, there is corruption. gone are the days when top teams buy players from northampton (phil neal) scunthorpe ( clemence,keegan) emlyn (blackpool)

they are now uti, but great scouts and coaches won the league, not an unlimited cheque book

Let us be honest here,Leicester fluked it because nobody took them seriously until it was too late,TTT

you can only beat whats put infront of you. and they did.

The commission didn't find that City's sponsorship was really 119m, they found that that was what the sponsors actually paid. Not the same thing. They found that the owners made up the balance and that was effectively an equity injection and not revenue as it was disguised as. The FFP rules are all based on revenue. When it comes to punishing City the 119m figure is used to assess how much they broke the rules by as that is the only genuine revenue they got from sponsors. The sponsorship was prob worth 500m+ in real market value terms but that's not what they actually got from sponsors.

Iron hoof supporting cheats and blowing Greeks.

good thread, lets not get personal

Homophobic insults now,you pitiful ponce

Not homophobic, I've no problem with irons singing about blowing bubbles, if that's their boat

Just your cockney slang, innit

And you started the abuse 24karat,lol

You have to wonder about today.
I mean...

Richard Masters was no doubt dreaming about City turning up at the red half of Merseyside today and getting a right caning.
Instead the City bus avoids the assembled LFC knuckleheads by taking a back road.
And the home team are so poor they get hammered.

Even the famous Kop banners are full of quotations from Oasis songs. As no band from Liverpool have been relevant since The Las made their one and only album in 1987.
Unless you count the Zutons. Which no one in their right mind  is.

And the greatest irony of all is that if Liv fans get their way and City's titles get stripped (from the years up to 2018) then the League title pecking order reads..
United 22
Liv 21.

Bow down to your Manchester Overlords..

I understand that City have possibly/probably transgressed the financial rules as per the Premier League ...

I assume these rules are in place to stop Team X buying all the best players in the world, so as to keep the League competitive?
Do these same rules apply to PSG, Barca, Real Madrid in their respective leagues? I genuinely don't know....also if not, would that not make them unfairly strong in the European Cup competitions?

Thelatarps obviously fishing and on the wind up here, defending a bunch  of frauds. Not the players fault of course but justice for the crooked behaviour of the club cannot come soon enough.

Far be it for me to defend the Reds but there was nothing in the game until the sending off. City had 4 shots on target, 3 were the goals all of which came after the dismissal. So they were well on top for the last half hour, but against ten men of course

Well done on City sneaking in without being seen, a metaphor for the last two decades i'd say

btw, why do you think the banners quoted Oasis songs ffs ? Duh !

Cheers, yhtl
That's not a light read

Yeah, it's pretty comprehensive, and
whilst top leagues have their own versions
of rules, there's the 70% UEFA that is
stricter than premier league rules.

Well tighter, maybe stricter is wrong word there.
