So Ole said the stadium is too red

Bojan made an enemy of me and now he's banned, I'd advise caution against insulting me. If you strike me down I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
SAF and grey kits. Gordon Strachan blaming Scottish genes.
Gordon Strachan blamed Scottish genetics for the reason they were shite. Players too small.
Pep accused Mitre footballs as being too light and unsuitable for the professional game.
Dalglish said the ball used, when Newcastle were beaten by Stevenage in the cup, was far too bouncy.

I don't have as much swag as Ole
Does anyone?I don't have as much swag as Ole
Didn't Klopp once blame us for having too many 1st team players out?
To be fair, and I really don't want to, some balls are awful and it's a mystery why suits decide that they are suitable for football. Some are like beach balls while others are like basketballs.
Klopp’s best one was when he said Man United players getting injured in the game affected Liverpool.
Benitez once blamed a beachball on the pitch for losing a match.
Edit: Damn the two posts above me at the same time.

Damn, beat me to it
I think that's the one I'm thinking of. Essentially we fielded too weak a squad and it distracted his team.
You're slipping in your senior yearsDamn, beat me to it
Klopp blamed too much wind against Soton
He blamed Jon Moss of not giving enough additional time because TV broadcasters told him they don't want more than 4 mins
He blamed pitch for getting drier and drier against West Brom
Blamed referee for breaking his players' rhythm by blowing whistle
Too much wind against Wolves
Too much snow against Leicester
Too many injured players against Man Utd
Allison's feet were too cold
Out of curiosity, are you Ole-In or Ole-Out?Ole hasn't insulted me yet.
Hope that answers your question.
That game where we had 3 injuries in about 10mins and Rashford limping around at 50%.
Klopp said our injuries "disrupted" them.
An utter parody of a man.
I think he really took under Arsene 'Moaning Myrtle' Wenger's mantle on the excuses
Fulham's owner blamed a load of their defeats on the removal of his prized Michael Jackson statue
Klopp blaming Allisons cold feet is the winner for me
I remember Pardew when he was at Newcastle blaming a loss away at Chelsea on the Notting Hill Carnival.
The grey kits!
I still can’t believe he did this and I have seen it so many times. I get second hand embarrassment just from looking at it.He seemed well prepared for Carnival
But seriously I think that my favorite was the Nike NK 800 geo. I don't know why that one remained in my mind.
That statue was fecking shit. What the feck was it painted for? Let statues be bronze/stone and leave it at that. And why the feck would you place a Michael Jackson statue at Craven Cottage? He went to a game there once because he was friends with Mohamed Al-Fayed, and otherwise had no connection to neither Fulham nor football.Fulham's owner blamed a load of their defeats on the removal of his prized Michael Jackson statue
