  1. I reckon the whole season will get "Mulliganed"!

    LFC fans will have something major to give out about and Utd/Everton/AntiLFC fans will laugh ever so loudly to hear their favorite sound.........the crying, pissing and moaning of LFCs fans........ ;)

    Seems like we may just be living through those "interesting times" that infamous Chinese proverb speaks of...........

    It would seem cruel not to give it when Liverpool have got such a big lead.

    It would seem so but I wonder if the laws of the game allow for the awarding of titles when a full season is not completed? 🤔

    i guess the upside would be an extra year as European champions. :P 

    I think they're so far ahead they should get the title anyway. The gap isn't the size of gap that sometimes gets caught, it's much bigger.

    If the season gets shut down before they win it mathematically they cant technically award anything really can they? 

    And even if they mathematically win it but the league has to shut down without all positions are resolved can they really award titles, positions and relegate teams?

    Go Niners!

    That was one tough late night watch as a Packer fan ☹️ Ripped apart! Twice in Cali this year 😬 and JG threw 8 times! WTF? 

    “Hey, we gonna run the ball down your throat and there is fuck all you gonna do about it!” Immense by the 9ers. Mostert and those blockers were unplayable 

    Mahomes’ air game V that running game? Tasty SB

  6. Nice start to the playoffs. Loved the drama in Texas even if I was rooting for the Bills. It was there for them to take but the reality is they shat the bed in the end

    And the Pats loosing at home to the Titans in Wild Card week? That’s pretty sweet! 😂

  7. Found myself agreeing with Souness today when he suggested that a player should be deemed onside if any part of his body is onside and so the rule would benefit attacking/entertaining play.... not a perfect solution, but I’d think most would agree with that approach no?

    Utd are 12 points behind Liverpool after 7 games. Won 2 of the last 12 league games. 6 of the next 7 games are away, the only game game is against Liverpool. 

    Great bantz.

     

    It’s still a fixture full of dread for both sets of fans regardless of gap. The fear of loosing it and being on the receiving end of bragging rights fuels the dread.... probably even more so when ur team is “expected” to win it... 

    I recall chatting with Utd friends back when Utd utterly dominated leagues and Liverpool were bang average if not worse and still the fear of loosing to Liverpool would erode any confidence they should have had considering how Utd played.... I also recall a lot of shite boring encounters with very little to talk about...  

  9. No doubt when the inevitable slump from Liverpool arrives it will be viewed by some as “choking”.... 

    City have only dropped 5 points. There’s a long long road to traverse with European footie and injuries to contend with for all...

    Norwich doing City over is most pleasant viewing, but that’s were it stays for the moment....

    Yesss it's NFL kick off day!! Green Bay and Bears to open could not asked for a better opening match.

     

     

     

    In the end I think the NFL and anyone watching that could! Not exactly the ideal opener ?

    Pretty poor stuff, except for the result (for me anyhow) 

  11. Pats Chiefs Rams Steelers Bears should all be up there one would suggest. But yeah the start of an NFL season is always a learning curve. What high profile names look strange in their new colours? What Rookies will light it up? What Defences all of a sudden are impenetrable? Can’t wait for it. Red Zone all the way! 

  12. Nearly sure I read somewhere pretty recently that the LFC owners are willing to back Klopp with a chunk of cash this Summer... think they should leverage off the CL win and go for whatever tickles Klopps fancy... 

  13. Alisson and Van Dijk both cost a hell of a lot of cash but on both counts it would be hard to argue that it was not money well spent. 

    Shame the final was so poor after some of the games we saw this year and considering the potential both Liverpool and Spurs brought to the game wrt performance and style

    Have to think the early goal played its roll it that, as well as maybe the extended time off to prepare for the final and a couple of first 11 choices that may not have been worthy, in hindsight??

    Its great to see this Liverpool team get a deserved trophy. They have been a joy to watch and follow and I am chuffed for Klopp, especially considering his last 6 finals.

    It will be interesting to see if they can again put the challenge up to City next season in the league, and if and how both teams will invest over the summer...

  14. Meh...

    Quite the limp ending. Don’t think I’m going to miss it much at this stage...

    I do miss the way it made me feel and think years ago. The change in pacing over the seasons was were it began to lose its way for me.

    Enjoyed so much of it, and so many different aspects of it over the 8 seasons, but in the end the project was too big to be any where near perfection....

    Yes I totally agree and I did offer the olive branch and said lets keep it to football as I was bored with talking about things that were not happening on the pitch

    City winning seems to have brought the worse out in the Liverpool fans. I perfectly understand that they had their hopes up and then dashed, so I do forgive them. 

     

    Easty the manner in which you celebrated your league win on here was pathetic and disgusting, in contrast to the posts prior to that where people on here acknowledged the incredible achievement City had completed. You had zero class in victory. You came on here calling Liverpool fans scum etc etc, and now claim to be a bigger person with olive branches and “keeping it to football”. 

    Dont be too shocked if folk you called scum don’t rush to take you up on the offer.

    Champions League is a lottery really. City are the greatest English team of all time. The achievements of the past 2 seasons are unprecedented. 

    Not as much as a lottery as the domestic cups, and yeah what City have done in the league is ridiculously impressive. Had to win 14 in a row, with no room for error, to win it and did. Amazing really.

    One just feels they need the CL to tie it all together. Had a great chance this year, being in an easier side of a draw. The lottery aspect was actually working in their favour. They just couldn’t make it work for them and the chance of a quadruple disappeared. 

    It will be interesting to see if they can mount an assault on the 4 again next season...but I’m sure most City fans would probably trade all 3 domestic titles next year if it guaranteed the CL.... or what would be their thoughts on that?
