For starters I seem to recall 2 Penalties that should have been given agains us, and I think Lescott was nearly responsible for them both.
I'm almost certain we have scored one or two offside goals aswell....
Would be intersting to see if these things even themselves out over the season.... although I struggle to see how being knocked out of 2 domestic cups unfairly could possibly be balanced out!
To be a fair comparison, they would have to be nailed on penalties not given rather than so so, as we have had loads of 60 40 decisions not given. The recent stuff is all absolutely blatantly obvious & the rags' pen (Kolarov) falls into that catagory tbf.
I metioned on here a while ago, that this type of shit usually starts when the games get crucial. That's where the rags & Liverpool have traditionally benefitted from scandalous reffing help. Sometimes early season, it's swings & roundabouts. It's when they really need them, that the refs kick in.
