and I  am sure a few fans of other teams will be reading all this thinking that a bit of stick seems to cause poor Raheem to be off his game but oh no, how could we even envisage to stoop so low.......good luck with that Raheem lad.

Daft thing is, I thought he played quite well and certainly his best game for city against us.

He did. He played very well really.

He also got away with a stamp on Virgil. All in all, it was a pretty decent showing for the toddler.

The way to deal with a bit of stick from fans is to laugh it off or let it drive you to greater things. I remember a united game a few years back when Giggs was getting quite a bit from the Kop. He went down to take a corner and started smiling and having a bit of banter. I also remember the likes of Neville getting properly fired up and playing well.

My fav example of this was Shearer when he came to Anfield as manager and Newcastle were shit as usual

There was a chant going around "you should've stayed on the telly!" and he actually laughed and waved and acknowledged it. It stopped immediately

What a shock. One match ban and that comes after the Liverpool game :lmao

Still twatted them with silva in the team.

Sterling’s PR team is really something else as well. Blaming Liverpool fans for this. It’s ok guys. We need to stop booing poor Raheem now as he seems to get very upset and mad whenever we boo him and attacks people the next day as it’s still fresh in his mind. What a poor little soul. We should really stop it  :'(

Scratch on his neck too. Tough man Sterling.

Sounds like there was a bit of a melee so if you’re being charitable the scratch could have been caused by someone else trying to separate them. Which actually also speaks volumes about it. So fuck him. :D

I just read an article which is suggesting that's exactly what happened.
Rafa Benitez: "I'll always keep in my heart the good times I've had here, the strong and loyal support of the fans in the tough times and the love from Liverpool. I have no words to thank you enough for all these years and I am very proud to say that I was your manager. Thank you so much once more and always remember: You'll never walk alone."

Or is it a City propaganda piece? Either way it was caused because Sterling went for Jomez.

Was there a certain date for the Bernardo Silva decision or is it just by chance that it has now been decided literally a few days after our game? I suppose they won't cry, moan, or call a conspiracy on that one.

BTW a mate of mine makes the point that this punishment is broadly in line with its precedent - a Balotelli tweet about Super Mario. Social media misplaced jokes v actual televised in game spoken words.

Chelsea game without him.
Yeh I think that must be it. Insofar as it's possible for a player to not be representing their team, or football in general, this is probably an example of it, done in a personal capacity, outwith the game, between friends, but stupidly broadcast to the world.

I'd have expected and favoured something slightly harsher, if for no other reason then to send a message in these troubled times, but there you have it. Also not sure of the subsequent video has been considered yet.

He was probably tearfully crooning that 'stamp your feet song' as he saw their title chances drift away, and ended up acting it out.

Omg this is from redcafe posted by a city fan in the Raheem/Gomez thread.

I mean what the absolute fuck is wrong with them!!

Your club is shit, the racism, the bus smashing, the cheating, the spying/stealing info, anti-jewish Salah, Groballar taking bungs, heysel, biting, drugs goal-celebrating, the fecking moaning. I have never seen a club get away with so much and be 'sponsored' by the media desperate for a big club bringing in the clicks.

You might win the title this year, and Pgmol/PL will benefit from the massive global sales of their product if you do. But everyone knows how it happened.

Don't like this subtle shift in the media PR battle against Liverpool.  Abu Dhabi have taken it off the pitch and seem to be pushing for a slightly more sinister agenda.  I can't quite put my finger on it, just feels unsettling.

I've always been well aware that rival fans will do anything to de-legitimise a Liverpool title win, at least in their own heads.  But now it feels like City as a club itself are feeding red meat into that particular grinder. It's very Trump-esque in that there's no real argument or rationale behind it - you just go after the integrity of your opponent with lies and bullshit, knowing full well there's an army of idiots out there only to willing to lap the bullshit up.  It's all nod nod wink wink, "just saying", "funny that isn't it" kind of implication and innuendo and I don't like it at all.

I don't want our club to get dragged into a PR war, but I really hope this narrative doesn't build steam so I hope there's something our own owners can do to counter it.

I see City as an obstruction rather than a rival, they are in our way as we try to win stuff, but there's no real connection that you need for it to be a rivalry.

Agreed, their owners could just as easily bought West Ham or Wolves and we'd be hating them now if they were stopping us from getting our hands on the Prem.

Imagine this...CL final...Utd v City...would any Liverpool fan really be rooting for Utd...well...exactly

Actually starting to HATE this new generation of City fans. They're turning what should be a fantastic sporting rivalry between team world-class teams, into something quite toxic and utterly vile. All because they aren't having everything their own way. The clubs owners, the manager and players like Sterling aren't helping matters either.
