So.........
The Bin Dippers were worthy of at least a point.
But...........
Where the fuck did they get 5 mins added time from in the second half? Seriously, did I fall asleep and miss a pitch invasion by Jamie Redtwat or something?
And then, when they equalise, Webb finds another minute from somewhere just to see if they can get the winner! Ferguson has clearly been outbid in the "slipping the fourth official an envelope of crisp fivers in order to get some imaginary time added on when you need a goal" stakes by Rafa.
Also, wtf was with the Sky Sports Liverpool Love-in? For the most part Tyler and Grey seemed to be simply enjoying an entertaining game but the studio was a complete joke. I get that it's all about the title race so they don't give a shit about anyone else but the amount of bias was awesome to behold.
Redtwat used to play for Spurs and the Scousers so I don't blame him for hating us but he's paid to be a pundit (apparently) and he looked ready to hang himself when they didn't win. Likewise Captain Charisma (notice he's Steven and not Stevie G when he's in the studio) who appears to have the personality of a brick which is fine for a footballer but ffs don't invite him into the studio.
I suppose it's a good thing Liverpool didn't win or we'd have been treated to Redtwat and Stevie G tossing each other off and I'd have felt even more sorry for Alan Smith being stuck in the middle of it.
The choice bits of the punditry/commentary were:
After Cesc is proven to have been onside when playing the pass for the first goal by Sky themselves using a nice line across the screen, there is endless debate about it being very debatable. At the very, very least his outstretched hand was level with Carragher's leg but apparently that's 10 yards offside if you're desperate for Liverpool to win. There's being biased in favour of your team and there's being a complete cunt, Stevie "Obviously I thought he was offside" G.
The nature of the goals. Redtwat doesn't wan't to take anything from Arse Shaving but the goals were all down to Liverpool mistakes (which apparently they don't usually make according to Stevie G - Chelsea games anyone?). He has a point, they fucked up and let us in. But, whilst we also had another shocker in defence, Liverpool's goals were down to the pure awesomeness of Nando and Benny.
I notice they didn't show replays of the two "offside" goals we scored either. Actually, now I've woken up a bit, I think they might have shown a replay of Bendy's goal which didn't look particularly offside either.
On the plus side, Arse Shaving was awesome, Fab had a decent game between the sticks and it was nice to hear the fans singing his name.
I despise Manure but but I hope they consign the Bin Dippers to another season with no title.
They still have quality all over the pitch.
