Keith hackett calling for Howard Webb web to visit Anfield to discuss Arne's booking v palace. Arne was booked for disagreeing with the corner that led to palace's first goal and video showed Arne was right. so Webb should rescind the booking and say he is sorry on behalf of his poor referees, who can not get much right.
Also, why the extra time was 6 minutes but went on for 8 minutes for no apparent reason.

It is what it is my friend unfortunately. Let's forget about and we go again.

I agree Barry. Sometimes it goes for you and sometimes it goes against you. We had just as much of a chance to score in those extra 2 minutes than they did.
As for Slot’s booking, yes he was right to feel aggrieved but you can’t go shouting at the 4th official no matter what’s happened. Take the booking and move on.

They key part to the announcement that many miss, ignore or tent to dismiss is that there will be a MINIMUM of x minutes added time.
The time shown is not the maximum it works for us and it works against us. It is what it is.

That may very well be true, iwillbered. But the truth is we were still poor on Saturday. Both goals were very preventable. The first bounced off Grav's head and the second bounced off Jones' head. Both were poor defensive headers and could have been better defended. It is what it is and we move on from it.

Slot was yellow carded for his conduct not for whether he was right or wrong about that call.

Of course if Liverpool had scored in the 97th minute to get a winner you wouldn’t be complaining.

So we are going to ignore all the other chances CP had and focus on some dead corner decision? And who says they don't score regardless with the way we were playing? Nah, that dog won't hunt.
Personally, that goes for you and goes against you. At the end of the day, we didn't do anywhere near enuff to win the game, let alone draw it arguably. Justice was served and we need to do a lot better. Just my take.

I thought they said during the match Slot got booked for leaving his technical area. Cos I then thought well if that's the case 99% of managers would get a booking every game.

Even though the managers have got touchline monitors n can see things. you still have to let the referee ref the game . if the players were honest n not claiming every decision even if they know they're wrong, it would make the refs job easier . but alas they don't .

Didn’t Ali go down with a slight injury during the extra time period, hence the slightly longer amount the referee allowed.
The thing that I took away from the game was not any kind of unfairness by the officials, it was how crap we played in the first half (Apart from Ali) .

I'm pretty sure Arteta left his area more than 10 times during the Newcastle game. Not obsessed with him or anything, just saying.
