However, losing 5-1 is no fun, especially when Reds manager Jurgen Klopp is fist-pumping every goal and celebrating with his staff like it's the final of the Champions League. I understand the importance of winning, but this was Brighton. What I do take exception to is any manager being kept waiting to shake hands once a game has finished, while his opposite number finishes hugging and kissing his players and staff in celebration of their victory. I sense this was exactly what happened after the final whistle, and why Chris Hughton tore a strip off Klopp immediately after the game and quite rightly.


 


What is happening to the traditions of this great game? Has winning and money destroyed everything we hold dear? The convention is we shake hands immediately after a game because it brings closure to the occasion, and it starts with the managers. The game's conventions are bigger than any manager or player, and if either can't be bothered to perform the duty, I suggest they find another profession that can afford their bad manners.


 


He's such a weirdo.

We've all sat next to a Garth on a plane or train, initially you think they're harmless, then a bit eccentric, then they piss in a cup a drink it in front of you, after offering you some.

Then the carer who bought a seat away from their charge has to come and takeover.

You end up a bit freaked out and can't get the piss stench out your nostrils.

Might just be me like.
