He never. Standing three feet away from it and said f**k all.

 

Who the f**k do you think advised the referee to disallow it then, considering the linesman immediately ran to the halfway line and the referee didn't signal for a foul until he'd approached the fifth official? Or had the referee seen it himself and just chose to wait several seconds before giving a freekick without asking the opinion of the official who was right next to it, with it being a total coincidence that the referee walked towards that official, who was nodding his head as if in conversation with someone, before making the decision?

BT should really stop letting McManaman do Liverpool games

In general they should stop letting ex players be pundits on games involving their former teams, the obvious bias can get very irritating.  The only time I don't mind someone showing their bias is when Jeff Stelling cheerleads for Hartlepool because a) Hartlepool don't normally get much exposure otherwise and b) Stelling is a professional broadcaster who knows how to make his bias funny/charming as opposed to being some meathead former player.

Fair enough. I just thought they had a flag same as the assistants. I was wrong.

No, they've only got a short, black sticky thing and for some unknown reason are not allowed to make any gestures, just communicate verbally with the ref.
