Calls for FA to Impose Points Deduction on Liverpool Following Jurgen Klopp’s Criticism of Referee Paul Tierney

Calls for harsher punishment have risen after Klopp’s recent post-match interview where he accused referee Paul Tierney of having an agenda against his side.

The CEO of Ref Support UK, Martin Cassidy, has called for a points deduction for Liverpool, arguing that a fine is not enough to address this behavior.

Cassidy believes that this will be a silver bullet to address this issue throughout football from grassroots to the Premier League.

Klopp’s behavior and comments have caused many to question his passion and professionalism. His supposed rivalry with Tierney has not gone unnoticed, and Cassidy argues that Klopp’s behavior needs to change.

While touchline bans have been in place for decades, they do not seem to be working. The hope is that harsher punishments, such as points deductions, will encourage teams and their managers to act more professionally.
