This is getting to be such a regular thing, we may as well have a thread for them. Like the old Letter From America on Radio 4. https://www.nottinghamforest.co.uk/news/2024/march/18/club-statement/ Nottingham Forest is extremely disappointed with the decision of the Commission to impose a sanction on the Club of four points, to be applied with immediate effect. Notwithstanding our disappointment, we thank the Commission for agreeing to deal with this matter on an expedited basis. The Club considers it to be essential for the integrity of the league to have charges resolved in the season in which they are issued. …

Arsenal have been bitching about refs all season which really fucking winds me up as it’s not like they’ve suffered much, although I wouldn’t say they’ve benefited much either. In terms of the top three and officiating, you’ve City at one end of the scale, us at the other and Arsenal are somewhere in the middle. Yet their fans were some of the most vocal on twitter last week (they always are) after the drop ball nonsense at Forest, but this week they weren’t happy when people rightly pointed out that their winning goalscorer against Brentford should not have even been on the pitch when he scored. As great as last week’s win at Forest felt for us, …

Looks really comfortable on the ball for a kid. Completely at home in a Wembley final, like the other young fellas. Maybe being the son of a well known player makes him calmer as he’d have been around this stuff his whole life. Another huge prospect.

Monday Mar 11: Kyle Walker is doing the media rounds today for some reason or other, and for some reason Sky are asking him for his thoughts on the ref's performance yesterday. Of course he was effusive in his praise of Michael Oliver (or “Mike” to his friends such as dirtbag Kyle) because he showed great “character” to not be swayed by Anfield yesterday. This isn’t normal and I can’t believe Sky are putting shit like this out. What’s going on? I feel like we’re in a footy equivalent of a Black Mirror episode. This is even worse than someone slagging a referee off, as the next time he’s involved in a contentious incident and Oliver is the ref, this interview i…

I don’t think I’ve ever felt uncomfortable about us battering a team before but when the fourth goal went in and we hadn’t even reached the 15 minute mark, I was squirming a little bit. It just felt awkward. Like that video when Michael Owen was blasting volleys past a 12 year old keeper. I felt a bit sorry for Sparta but I was also annoyed with them too. It’s hard enough playing against us without doing the stupid shit they kept doing. It was the same last week too. How many of the goals we scored over both legs came from us winning the ball from them when they tried to play out from the back? At least four, probably more. Yet they kept doing it and we kept p…

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. One of those match threads where I hope the players are more up for it than I am. Sparta gave it a good go in he first leg and Queef was a very busy man, and yet we were ruthless in attack and put 5 past them to make the second leg a formality, meaning it's difficult to really add anything here. It was a closer-run thing back in 2011 when we faced Sparta in the second leg of the Round of 32. The away leg had finished goalless, and Kenny was still trying to wash away the combined stink of Hodgson, Hicks and Gillett. It wa…

Another big win for the Reds over Sparta as Klopp's decision to field a strong line up paid off early, with four goals in the opening quarter of an hour that allowed the rest of the game to be played out as a glorified training session. Chris Smith is joined by John Brennan and TLW Editor Dave Usher to reflect on a fun night at Anfield before then turning their attentions to the big game at Old Trafford at the weekend in the FA Cup.

Sparta Prague manager Brian Priske conceded that his team were nowhere near the standard required to compete with Liverpool. Already out of the tie after losing 5-1 at home last week, it was all about respectability for the Czech outfit heading into the second leg, however they were blitzed in the opening 15 minutes at Anfield conceding four goals in the opening 14 minutes and Football. historians scrambling for their record books for the greatest aggregate scoreline in European club competition. While the 21-0 scoreline registered by Chelsea against Jeunesse Hautcharage in the first round of the 1971/72 Cup Winners Cup and a year later by Feyeno…

That performance exceeded anything I expected, but the result didn’t. I actually thought we’d win the game but I didn’t think we’d completely dominate them for the entire second half. That was something wasn’t it? Fucking hell. We should have won, we deserved to win, but we didn’t win. Partly because of our finishing and partly because earlier in the season City’s chairman paid a few refs to go over and do some side gigs in the U.A.E. and since they came back they’ve given some of the worst decisions imaginable to help City out. Oliver is the main culprit but don’t forget that Darren England was over there taking the oil money before he did what …

Monday Mar 4: The fallout from “drop ball gate” continues. Batshit mental this is. Tierney is demoted for this weekend. Never seen such a massive over-reaction to a nothing decision. Its genuinely on the same level as a ref giving a throw in the wrong way or giving a goal-kick instead of a corner. Yet every report you see or hear talks of our “controversial win”. It’s only controversial because their fat cunt owner chased after the ref, and because the same fat cunt owner is paying a former high profile ref to cause shit on their behalf. Fuck Nottingham Forest, the massive cry babies. The media are culpable here too. It’s incredible how much covera…

This week it came as a shock for the public in Norway when Fredrik Aursnes ( Benfica) said no to further games for Norway. Aursnes is only 28 years old. Numbers from FIFPRO now show that no other player in Europe have played more games than Aursnes this season. The discussion after Aursnes decision have been interesting, most journalists, players and coaches that have been asked about it seem to have a good understanding of his decision and now ask the question if enough is enough. We have got more and more international games with the National League and now UEFA also wants to increase the European games for the teams and players in the top teams. …

Ian Wright believes that the discussion surrounding the modern day success of Man City comes with an important caveat attached, that being the 115 charges that they have to answer to for alleged breaches of Premier League financial rules. Liverpool and Man City engaged in another chapter of their storied rivalry on Sunday afternoon, and as happens after so many of these games, there was plenty of talking points to come out of it. Despite being undermanned, the Reds ability to put the reigning champions for a sustained period of time surprised and impressed many observers in equal measure, not least the Liverpool manager himself who said “there is n…

Rafa Benitez says he is waiting for an enticing offer from a Premier League club that can challenge for titles, but insists he is not desperate to take a new job. The Spaniard has been out of work since being fired by Inter Milan in December 2010, just six months after his six-year reign at Liverpool ended. Benitez says he wants a "team that can challenge for trophies and at the same time improve," adding that his "priority is to stay in the Premier League I'm not sure he has many EPL options? Newcastle would improve with him, as would Villa.... maybe Spurs if Churchill gets the England farce. I rate him but he made a cunt of himself in his last seaso…

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. Note the kick-off time. The game that the media are claiming will decide the destiny of the league title, the UK general election, Trump V Biden, the Six Nations, and whatever overhyped boxing match is coming up. While the coaching staff and players will be wanting to prepare for and treat a game at Anfield against City as just another game, it's almost impossible not to think that the outcome will set the tone for the remainder of the season. City barely have any injuries anyway, the likes of Rodri never seem to get injured (or sus…

Honours even after a pulsating clash at Anfield. The Reds overcame a half time deficit to dominate after the break and Alexis Mac Allister's equaliser was the least Liverpool deserved for a brilliant second half display. TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Paul Natton and John Gallagher to look back on a highly charged game that had a controversial ending, as Michael Oliver denied Mac Allister the clearest of penalties with virtually the last kick of the game.

May as well get a thread going for our newest defender. Welcome to he's already here! A 20 year old from Warrington. Been at the club since the age of 5. "He made 16 appearances for Bristol Rovers last season. Rovers manager Joey Barton said, “I’m mindful of not heaping too much on the kids but, why not?” Barton said, in response to a question around whether Quansah could one day play for England. “He’s as good on the ball that you’ll need to be in terms of building out from the back. He’s going to get bigger, he’s going to get stronger, he’s going to get faster. His anticipation of the game is going to be better because more sen…

Alexander-Arnold: Our success means more to us and our fans because of what we are up against

Trent Alexander-Arnold believes that the way that Liverpool have earned their success in the Jurgen Klopp era means more in a personal sense compared to the financial juggernaut that is Man City. For the second time in three seasons, Liverpool are challenging on all four fronts. and having already one cup under their belt, it only gets more challenging from this point on. And on Sunday sees yet another chapter in the great modern day rivalry that is Liverpool vs Man City. And while nothing will be truly decided by the time the final whistle blows on Sunday, a win to either team will most certainly see them claim the favouritism tag for …
