Great result yesterday but having read the site following the Spurs game I have been quite disappointed with our so-called fans, and their comments.

The reaction to Kane's tackle has been abysmal. People calling him all names under the sun for a mis-timed tackle. I was at the game and in real time, the tackle did not look bad. There was no mention of a red when the tackle was made amongst the fans. People calling Kane's character into question is ridiculous as the tackle was slightly late and there was clearly no intention to hurt the player.

Its also worth mentioning that when our Harvey Elliott mocked Kane's speech impediment I don't recall anyone calling Elliott a scumbag (which would have probably been an accurate description) but seen multiple comments like that directed to Kane.

I also see no-one up in arms over the fact Morton somehow stayed on the pitch yesterday following a very high tackle (higher than Kane's) .

I think our fans are guilty of being hypocrites and it is quite embarrassing. So much has been said recently about 'be kind' and mental health yet in the same breath we won't hesitate to abuse Kane on social media.

I get his comments following the game were not ideal but which player would ever come out and say 'that was a red card I should've walked'.

All I'm saying is let's not throw stones when we live in glass houses. Refs make mistakes all the time, its not a conspiracy against Liverpool.

{Ed0666's Note - your exactly the type of person my wife would like me to be. You make salient points and when I grow up want to be like you. Unfortunately I haven’t got the rational and emotional intelligence of yourself.

Difference is VAR, not available yesterday. Should have been at least looked at for Kane.

Pretty sure Robbo came out and said just that. But yes, abuse/ trolling or whatever you want to call it should never be accepted.

Implying Elliott is a scumbag because as a teenager he made fun of someone's voice is a bit much pal, if u really think that then it's probably best to stay at home because the world is mean.

I agree with pretty much everything else though, I find it hard to believe there's any big conspiracy against Liverpool, just people fairly poor at their jobs doing the best they can do.

If you go in with your studs up then there is Always the intention to hurt someone. Anyone who has played the game at any level will know that.

OP, Im no hypocrite. I thought the Morton tackle was red-worthy and had VAR been there, pretty sure the ref would have had a decision to make and had there been a red card awarded, I would not have had an issue with it. Either way, I fully agree with all the other stuff you said.

{Ed0666's Note - I said the same thing yesterday when I was editing during the game that was a red all day long.

Don't disagree that players shouldn't be abused, but Kane is getting it so hard because he has a track record doesn't he? He's always playing on the edge of the rules looking for light fouls/ pks but constantly fouling and making strong challenges himself (bit of a hypocrite himself) . I don't rate him and certainly don't respect him. He also didn't do himself any favors by claiming he thought he got the ball in his post match interview did he?

It looked a red from the stands but I haven’t seen the highlights of the game yet. However reading the comments above looks like we got a way with one!

{Ed0666's Note - it was 100% imo

OP, some great points mate - just one thing though - the last comment about players putting their hand up saying I deserved a red card - Andy Robertson actually did that after the Spurs game.
