Dalglish hits out at four contentious refereeing decisions

Kenny Dalglish has hit out at referees claiming that crucial decisions have gone against Liverpool in every match this season.

Liverpool lost 1-0 at Stoke City on Saturday with referee Mark Clattenburg involved in penalty decisions at both ends of the park.

The defeat leaves Dalglish’s side trailing the two Manchester clubs by five points after four games with the pressure starting to tell on the Anfield boss.

Dalglish said: “Our first four league games have all had a contentious decision in them and every one of them has gone against us.

We would like to be respectful towards referees. I think I have been respectful to referees, but more importantly than being respectful to referees in their campaign it’s about having respect for my football club.

If I feel Liverpool are suffering then maybe I need to go down the same route as some other people go and see if we can get some benefit from that.

I’ll speak to the owners first and see what they say because the last thing I want is for my behaviour to infringe on the club’s success in any way.”

“If we continue to play like that with the same attitude and the commitment then we will be OK this season, but if we continually get battered with things that are outside our control then we are not going to have much chance.”
