Got it.They celebrated a last minute winner goal vs Norwich in the video hence the Norwich cup

I have just noticed the fact that Brendan Rodgers' winning ratio (50%) with Liverpool is higher than Klopp's (48%) at the moment

I do think its unfair however that ever since SAF came in that United are the only team given 3 points for losing. It is also even more unfair that each time pool wins that the crooked FA gives the 3 points to United instead of them.
Panic stations as Utd move above Liverpool, probably for the first time in history, in their "alternative" premier league table.
It must be broken.

Louis van Gaal has a better record at United than Klopp in the amount of games Klopp has been at Liverpool.
Objectively this is understandable, given the prospective squads at the disposal of each manager. But then of course according to RAWK Liverpool have man for man the best squad on the planet (well, they did at the start of the season anyway) so maybe Klopp is underachieving?
They are still neck and neck with arsenal for the most goals for shield so all is not lost. Somewhere in liverpool a scouser is polishing a open top bus in anticipation
Can anyone explain this 'alternate league table' thing? I've seen people mentioning it a lot.
I think you have to be from liverpool to truly understand it but basically its a league they run themselves on rawk and you get points for shots on target and distance covered etc. The rules seem to change every season depending on circumstances. I believe liverpool are the reigning champions though and have been since the league was formed back in the 1800's
Too early in the season, they have to steal it first.
Blimey
Seems a distinctly Liverpool thing to do.It basically acounts for difficulty of opposition, to make the early league table look realistic. For example, getting 15 points from 5 easy home games isnt as impressive as getting 15 away to United Chelsea arsenal spurs and city. We have and have had our own version of it for a long time. But the folks in this thread keep laughing at it without understanding it. It merges with the real table in most occasions by abut game 30
Completely false.Blimey

It's a league table that is based on the expectation of the result (i.e. Hull beating Arsenal at the Emirates get more points than Arsenal do beating Hull at the Emirates). It's a bit mad, but they enjoy talking about it over there and at its best it provides an interesting graphical display of how teams did relative to expectation (to be fair so does the proper table
) and taken as a bit of fun I imagine it can provide a few talking points throughout the season.The joke in an alternative premier league table taking off over on Rawk is of course too obvious to state.
Look at him gesturing to Lallana!
Quality! But wheres the video of them winning the "comeback draw with West Brom Cup? even more cringeworthy.
Don't even go there
That's actually what I was expecting
Stolen from the newbies and quite obviously fake but this gave me a good laugh.
Surely that bit doesn't work because RAWK expects Liverpool to beat everyone?http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=329366.0

I think they add penalties they should've had, and remove offside goals and offside'ish goals, in other teams' favour aswell.
I wasn't sure if you were serious but just in case somebody thought you were, no they don't do that in the alternative premier league table.Hahahaha Nice one

Doesn't the Alternative League Table end up with the same standings as the actual league table by the end of the season?
That is fanfeckingtastic.Tweet

there's another little quirk to the workings of the APLT been revealed here I think - it's seeing Utd & Liverpool's remaining fixtures as basically equal in difffculty but we play the all top teams away & they are playing their top team fixtures at Anfield
so whether we should be projected as likely to finish ahead of them is a bit debatable really
(sorry)

Was just pasting that into a reply now myself ha. He is shook.
I thought that one was already on it's way to Old Trafford this year judging by some of the posts I've read on here this season.
