According to this analysis of VAR decisions for the 22/23 season, Liverpool were the joint second beneficiaries of VAR decisions, while City were bottom.

So why do fans believe there is a conspiracy against them? Where does that belief stem from?

Every fanbase thinks the refs are out to get them. Liverpool also have a historical reason to distrust authority in the country with the Hillsborough coverage and accusations as well as general Thatcherism

And this is just tracking whether VAR decisions (e.g. corrective reviews) either led to a goal that was disallowed or vice versa, etc…

It isn’t tracking issues like what occurred against Spurs or the Rodri handball incident.

It’s also a single season of statistics.

The point of this anyway? We trying to act like it wasn’t a colossal mistake last weekend?

Yes, but by subjective calls do they mean penalty decisions and red cards? What about decisions that are not reviewed? That’s what I mean. It’s only showing corrective actions.

If you look at the 2021-2022 link, the Rodri handball incident is not included.

Here are a couple pretty biased articles if you want a read.

One and two

Microsoft wins FTC fight to buy Activision Blizzard

https://www.theverge.com/2023/7/11/23779039/microsoft-activision-blizzard-ftc-trial-win

From the article, quoting Judge Corley:

... the Court finds the FTC has not shown a likelihood it will prevail on its claim this particular vertical merger in this specific industry may substantially lessen competition. To the contrary, the record evidence points to more consumer access to Call of Duty and other Activision content. The motion for a preliminary injunction is therefore DENIED.
