ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

Not open for further replies.

Today's failure at The Hawthorns almost certainly means I'm 3-0 in bets with RS (3 different people) - and, just as certain is that I'll also be 0-3 when it comes to them paying up. First up my arm was twisted for a £20 stake on the 2009 FA Cup match which the RS generously gave me the draw (big deal, he got even money on his team at home) - as we all know we drew and won the replay but I didn't get paid. Second up - for £10 was the outcome of the 2012-13 season - again I wasn't paid (though, to be fair, sacking the RS for Gross Misconduct might have had something to do with it). The final bet was another £10 on Liverpool not beating Everton's points total (from last season) this season - a fair bet really that required them to not drop 14 or more points from 86 to (our) 72. With 58 in the bank and 5 to go (including Chelsea away) it looks certain to end in another correct pick but this one has no money (so I won't try to collect) - I'll just put it down to Kopiteism and savour their lack of honour when it comes to settling bets.

hahahaha just been reading the match thread on RAWK. They've not all fought like that since they were robbing each others tickets in Athens. Everyone's getting it. As well as the usual culprits like Mario and Johnson, people are now having a go at Hendo and young Adam.

It's superb. A real treat.

There's nothing like red v red fumeageddon.

On RAWK someone said everything must be done to accommodate Origi next season. Origi has scored 8 goals in 40 appearances this season for Lille. Best young striker in de world

Ha Ha Ha.

Build a team around Origi.

Bottom of the barrel being approached now I reckon.

This is a classic example of kopite spivery when it comes to spinning defence. So much so it will be read by hundreds of people then parade around the internet and pubs, Chinese whispers style as Gospel. "When you look at the dem stats and moneyball you see we are better than Man united lad".

I will try and give some clarity to what he is saying. As above all else it is unclear as well as illogical. The main gist of hi argument is, when your leading scorer gets 15+ goals you tend to finish I the top 4. The problem is that on 7 of the 16 seasons he samples disprove this. That I nearly 45%! His own hypothesis is blow away by the evidence he presents! Only an absolute cretin would try argue for a cause affect on those numbers. Forget causation or correlation, there is no correlation! I work loosely in statistics and can assure one and all this is utter nonsense.

Exactly

When Matt le Tissier was scoring for fun, weren't Southampton still in relegation battles?

Interesting to see if this gets a mention on MOTD tonight. I know Barkley (and rightly so) got hammered for diving earlier this season and the analysis team took time to show it and analyse it
