How were Liverpool robbed? They got the main calls and Coates fouled the defender for the disallowed goal. Suarez should have been sent off but Chelsea were not robbed just unlucky. Both Torres and Ivanovic deserved their red cards (Torres for his high kick not the clear foul by Evans) and Hernandez was offside.

I know it was a foul but it was ruled out for offside (the linesman put his flag up for offside and the referee did the 'move' for offside). Still, it should have been ruled off anyways so you are right.
Ivanovic probably did although it is hard to see if there was or wasn't contact in when he fell but when stuff like that happens it goes with the attacker 98% of the time so I don't mind that. Torres on the other hand got a yellow card for that challenge and rightly so. It was a high foot, don't think he meant for it to be that bad and 98% of the time referees give a yellow card for that. From there on it was just terrible! And Hernandez's goal wasn't unlucky for us. We were robbed!
Two intentional stamps, Distin (got booked for that) and Mirallas.

That's ridiculous btw.
Bernstein is chairman, life long City fan.
David Dein has been a member for ages, was also on the Arsenal board.
Phil Gartside is Bolton chairman.
David Gill is the PL representative, and the clubs are obviously happy with him because they keep electing him.
Spouting Benitez quotes doesn't really help you, that man was as crazy as they come.
Carroll.
Fantastic

This sums it up well.
Just read this from The Telegraph:

At the risk of stoking the fires again, as harsh as Torres' second yellow was, could anyone have had any complaints with a straight red for that?
VP.
No, no one likes Man Utd
Sam
Ninja
So no, you'd have no complaints? Glad we agree.

I love the irony of Chelsea fans sitting there booing Ferdinand because Terry racially abused his brother, but then being so offended when their players are on the receiving end.

That's definitely the face you pull when you say the n word.

Maybe Clattenburg was only repeating what he thought Mikel had said to him....

Not overly surprised United seemingly got the "rub of the green" for the most part. It's always a little expected when seeing either Webb or Clattenburg given the nob in United fixtures, this does nothing to really dispel such feelings. Of course Hernandez' goal had to be the suspicious winner also, tends to be that way.
I was debating on downloading the match and watching it but I feel as if I do I'll just get infuriated.
I guess we'll wait and see what comes of everything that's unfolded afterwards. I'm not expecting much but it would be refreshing to see something done, as the standard of officiating has really taken a nose dive the last few seasons.

I don't expect you to agree, but the 'clear contact' was slight and he went down about 2 steps after it happened.
Torres goes down on his own volition, he's felt a touch and thrown himself to the ground trying to get and opposition player booked or sent off.
For my money, and you can say what you want about Evans' tackle and the like, Torres has clearly dived.
It was a foul, but Torres tried to highlight by diving and got his comeuppance.

The contact was still there and Torres went down accordingly. It's no different to what most other players do really, particularly in cases when a defender blocks an attacker off and the attacker runs into said defender and either stopping, or falling to their knees.
In the situation Torres' was in, there was no advantage for him to try and stay on his feet. It's the sort of thing you see every week. For me, those instances aren't dives. Does Torres go to ground easily, sure. But there was was enough contact for him to do so.
