Chelsea on saturday jast passed. My gripe? Rob Styles behaviour towards Liverpool EVEN THOUGH LFC WERE PLAYING AT HOME. A penalty call even Andy Gray couldnt dream of giving, then booking 2 key players from LFC when they dared do a Man Utd and Chelsea special and argue their case. Chelsea didnt deserve anything from that game except at least 3 more bookings and at least 1 more red card...therefore I give you a shining example that referees DO NOT always favour the home team...those teams that are allowed by ruling bodies to intimidate the referees, linesman and governing bodies are the fortunate few who receive the favourable treatment!

Is there a sport out there where the home team doesn't have an advantage? I wonder how much they got paid to come up with that conclusion.
