http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/latest-news/kenny-meets-with-refs-chief Liverpool Manager Kenny Dalglish yesterday met with Mike Riley, General Manager of Professional Game Match Officials Ltd, at the Club's Melwood training ground. Following the meeting, the Reds boss said: "It was good to see Mike and we had an extremely informative and amicable discussion, which has given us all a better understanding of how things operate. "It's our job to best represent the Club and protect its interests, but we have the utmost respect for the job referees do and have never wanted or asked for any form of preferential treatment, simply a level playing field for everyone. "We will continue to conduct ourselves in a dignified and respectful manner at all times. "From our perspective it was certainly worthwhile sitting down together and maybe it's something that should happen more often." Hopefully this will benefit everyone, and make the refs more aware of giving us bad decisions in future
I think the whole idea of meeting up is not on. Just man up and get on with it. Bit disappointed that the club got Kenny to do this to be honest.
I strongly doubt that kenny would have done it unless he agreed with the points that presented for the club. Why not make you're comments in a quasi-official way - at least you cannot be charged with condoning the present situation by your silence! Perhaps the most important thing in the statement is "We will continue to conduct ourselves in a dignified and respectful manner at all times."
I appreciate that fully. The club clearly wanted Kenny to have the meeting, I just disagree that we should stoop that low. The club should of manned up and got on with it. Do we complain when decisions go our way?? It's swings and roundabouts, you win some and lose some. That's just football
Pretty damn sure our manager got some stick for doing something similar........... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Oh well, Ken kaniff needs all the help he can get i suppose ( oh no he didn't )
