Delighted united got a soft penalty considering johnson tried a few dives first half(that liverpool supporters didn't mention) and since most here were arguing that shelvey should have only got a yellow, then the ref did the right thing with vp.

Agree with RVP it was no red. No more than Shelvey's. There's no consistency.

That is the frustrating thing.

Gerrard man of the match :pac:

You have disproved your own argument! A referee should be consistent, you just admitted Halsey wasn't!

More play acting from Evans

Liverpool fans in this thread really aren't doing anything to dispel the stereotype that they are full of delusion.

And the way UTD are playing and the way the ref is performing, doesn't do anything to dispel the fact they are Cheats, and they have the fa/ref in the back pocket.

There is the league rules, and then there is utd rules.

Mark Halsey truly deserves to be demoted down a division or two after today

Disagree with that. He's a very good ref.

He had no choice with the red card according to current interpreting of the rules.

The pen was soft but he saw Johnson lunge and Valencia fall in the act of shooting. He doesn't have replays and it was a tough call.

Wish they hadn't shown that replay.

Ooh...that looks nasty for Kelly.

IvySlayer

Shelvey jumped 2 footed, studs showing over the ball.

RVP slid one foot, level with the ball.

Geddit now?

Oh great Kelly crocked.

You must be delighted. Liverpool players being injured to add to the scoreline heh.

It's so shockingly bad it's nearly hard to be angry, just bewildered. He has turned a vital game into a farce.

Yeah, it's just a disgraceful amount of incompetence in the one gig. You'd love to think he'll face consequences for his gross negligence in terms of his scheduling / pay / etc, but he won't. No consequences.

Then theres Liverpool thinking they are a top 4 team

Washington Irving

Shelvey banned, Agger and Kelly injuries. Zero points. Same sh|t different day

This really was a day where the 12th man for Utd. He has just been so shocking!!

Hank Scorpio

Sign on Sign on lol

That chant is hilarious

Celly Smunt

he must have some really weak shin guards to fall like that.

mark renton

Play acting, diving, referee wearing united jersey - well done u had it all today and just about scraped a win... wont be winning the league this year with that team though

For the pen you could see at full speed Johnson make contact with reina who was no where near Valencia

Pepe LeFrits

Can't believe United have won this, they've been absolutely dreadful.

Xavi6

Great entertainment, fair to say Liverpool were shafted with the peno decision.

Don't write such moronic statements.

It is akin to saying - I don't care if the Ref gave us two vital decisions because we got the points.

Thats a given.

He had a choice to apply the rules fairly. Whatever Shelvey got, Evans should have got etc.

scudzilla

What's the difference between a triangle and Liverpool?

A triangle has 3 points.



I'll get my coat

Nice!

Well he made the opposite choice on Evan's lunge? So he does have a choice it appears.

I'd be surprised if you could find five Liverpool fans that would call us a top four team so please stop plucking random nonsense from your ars3 in some childish attempt to have a got at Liverpool fans.

Ardent

Been a while since I seen a worse refereeing performance

Celly Smunt

middle of the field,no signs of advantage,and 20 seconds over the time and the ref gives a free kick.

Hank Scorpio

United really lucky to win, didn't deserve too. Liverpool were excellent until the sending off. Decisions were questionable especially the penalty

Hococop

poor performance but happy with the 3 points

el dude

Halsey still had time for one more ****e decision.

Kylo Ren

Jesus, Liverpool are getting some load of extra time.

Mars Bar

PHB

I understand people being annoyed about the red, but genuinely can't begin to understand how you wouldn't think that was a penalty. Jesus christ like, Johnson slide tackled from behind and didn't get the ball and hit the player. It's a foul clear as day, that's why none of the liverpool players were criticising it.

super_furry

Halsey is an absolute joke.
