Dalgish to discuss poor refereeing with Liverpool owners

London, Sep 11 (IANS) Frustrated with poor officiating, manager Kenny Dalglish will be consulting Liverpool onwers on tackling the problems with refereeing decisions.

Dalglish felt that referee Mark Clattenburg was wrong Saturday night by awarding Jon Walters’ 20th minute penalty winner that saw Liverpool unbeaten start to the season ending with 0-1 defeat against Stoke.

“We would like to be respectful to referees - and I’d like to think I have been - but more importantly than being respectful to the referees is having respect for my football club,” Dalgish was quoted as saying by The Sun.

“If I feel they are suffering in any shape or form I will need to go the same route other people go and see if we can gain some benefit from that. The first four league games have had contentious decisions in them and every one has gone against us.

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