Re: [lfc] Re: Dave Whelan

Even you can't think you'd win a battle of Gerrard vs Rooney offences?!?! That's not even including the vile verbal barrage that Rooney gives officials and rarely gets a card for. Plus Gerrard has 5 years longer in the league.

These debates of Manc favouritism wouldn't come up if it wasn't so bloody obvious.....and it's not just LFC supporters, everyone complains about it.

But, as I said yesterday, I'm sure the Mancs will drop their next six points due to dodgy decisions against them.
