Apart from the headline, actually fair and balanced enough.

Didn't realise Bravo had only made seven saves ALL season. Great research as usual

It didn't say that.

As for Caballero, after 3 minutes and 59 seconds, he made a save from Michail Antonio. That put him just seven behind the total Bravo has made all season. After denying Robert Snodgrass late on, he moved to six.

The number of games played by each wasn't given, nor whether this is for the PL or for all competitions, so more a bit of rhetoric really rather than a helpful stat.

I thought the line "just seven behind the total Bravo had made all season" was explicit enough

93 is just 7 behind 100.

But give a smiley if you were joking...

I had a facebook memory come up on my feed this morning that showed a still of a Skirtel tackle on Bale. It was 5 years ago today and I posted that picture with this comment under it:

"Yellow card? I don't want him or any Liverpool player banned especially with the united game coming up, but how come this hasn't been shown from 15 different angles like the balotelli one?
There's very little consistency in refereeing and media coverage and it's getting worse instead of better"

I only mentioned on here the other day that I began to notice the bias about 5 years ago and sure enough it was, nearly to the day. You can see by the way I've commented that I still inferred it was a lack of consistency and there was hope that it would get better.

Not now. After 5 full years of it getting worse and more blatant, I don't hold any hope that the powers that be will fix it, because they are the cause of it as it turns out.

I'm no longer amazed in the least when it happens to us every week.

But I'm always amazed when some cunt on here tries to tell me I'm imagining it.
