I am a huge Liverpool fan, and I hate anything bad happening to them.
So after Sunday's 1-1 draw with Chelsea, where referee Rob Styles awarded a penalty to the Blues for an innocuous "collision" on Florent Malouda to the surprise of everyone (including to the Blues players, to be fair), and apparently booked Michael Essien twice but not sending him off, I have only the following thing to say:
Fire Rob Styles and suspend him indefinitely.
Players who do not play well will lose their place in the starting line-up or even be released by the team (but somehow Titus Bramble is still plying his trade in the Premier League and, most amazingly, Jean-Alain Boumsong is starting for Juventus). But how about referees who have a bad game? They are only "suspended" for a week, and thereafter nothing will ever happen to them.
Please, Styles deserves his marching order. The below-par referees often steal the headlines where the players should rightfully belong.
Fire him now.
