VIDEO: Why does it always rain on them?

Liverpool supporters at the clash against Newcastle became the victims of a malfunctioning sprinkler at half-time.

HAVING JUST SEEN their side go 1-0 down to Yohan Cabaye’s volley at the end of the first half, Liverpool’s fans received a soaking when a jet of water took on a life of its own.

Brilliantly mirroring the Reds’ damp start to the Premier League season, supporters in the first 20 rows of the Paddock got a soaking for at least 30 seconds.

However, club officials such as Ian Ayre – Liverpool’s managing director – escaped the deluge as they were off availing of the free sandwiches at the time.
