Danaerys’ descent into madness was definitely heavily foreshadowed, the house of the undying? Her vision of the iron throne with ash raining down? I’m a bit sad that it’s ending now, I think it could’ve done with a few more series to properly do the story justice, but fuck it, this is what we have. That episode was certainly very spectacular, to say the least.

Hi de hi!

A saliva bird, upon my chest.

Depay's rap after hitting 5 million followers on Instagram tells us all we need to know. Do not need that shite anywhere near our club. I am surprised we are being linked with him - the guy is a complete tit.

This is completely wrong.

Is there a fan base out there with less self respect than these lot.

The people that use their eyes would know he's all wrong for us in every way imaginable. File under: Absolutely not, under any circumstances.

Wilfried Zaha? Fuck that shit with herpes.

6 years. A wonder she hasnt put Satan out of business and closed the furnace down.

Just ban the embarrassing knob.

We need to be careful about saying big nights or coming 2nd means more - we don't need to give the media or other clubs any ammunition. Winning trophies is everything and all that matters. I will stick with Shankly rather than "this means more". We are getting close and lets win number 6.

Brighton sack Hughton this morning. He keeps them up again on a shoestring but it is deemed not good enough. Laughable

Joe Gomez has missed 565 days through injury since he arrived.

Well that was, erm. If this was a mini series I'd probably be blown away but as it is after eight years, "rushed" doesn't quite cover it. Anyway

Fuck it. Let's just go out on June 1 and win the trophy money still can't buy for them.

All of their antics make me laugh first and after a few moments I then start to feel sorry for them. We have broken them, we dominate their every waking moment. They select cars, clothes and furniture based on their feelings about us. Their lives are ruled by what we are doing, I’d say that Liverpool affects their lives more than it affects ours. Rational thought goes out of the window, cognitive bias the rule of the day. Now we all have a bias when it comes to our team and players but theirs is bordering on a mental illness. I’d go so far as to consider taking their driving licences off them and prescribing some pretty hard core medication. There are currently people secured in mental institutions with a better grasp on reality than these mutants. All ill I’ll say is that each time we fall, we get back up together and we try again. Each time we succeed we celebrate together and better for knowing that their hurt is far greater than our joy. Feel that pain, have a few weeks of sleepless nights. If we bring number 6 home you’ll not stop hearing about it for years. They get get more joy from our club than they do their own, that has to fuck with your head.

My mate used to play 5 a side 3 times a week and Saturday and Sunday league footy. His Mrs got fed up of him never wanting to do anything between September and the end of March incase he missed any games. One night he came home and she said "it's football or me, fucking sick of it running my life". Then threw his boots out the front door. He just sat down, put sky sports on and went "see ya then" He said she just malfunctioned and stood there for an hour repeating the same thing to him until she realised the threats weren't working.

I thought Tony was Kendo Nagasaki

Wasn't Carl Lewis proved to be a drug cheat too!

One of the downsides of watching a championship club on a regular basis is the moronic 'support', the same crap droned out game after game. Wolves have always been one of the worst culprits, the 'bantz' being even worse when delivered in a Midlands whine. Its 60 years since Wolves last won the title, and for probably a third of the intervening years they've been yo-yoing betweeen the third and fourth tiers. The team is PL standard, the supporters are still trapped in third tier.

Mane was 22-24 years old when he was posting those stats. He was 24 when we signed him, Zaha will be almost 27. He’d also just scored 15 goals in all comps for Southampton the season before we signed him, like I say Zaha has never scored more than ten in a season. I don’t see any value at all in signing Zaha. Better players available cheaper on the continent.

A meatball's chance in Luke Shaw's house is a classic.

If De Ligt is possible, why not? Gomez, if fit, will doubtless still get matches and if we can assemble a squad that has second-choice players good enough to give us a fighting chance of progressing deep in the domestic cups, even better.

I think that Ox providing he comes back from his injury showing the signs he did before the injury will play a big part in the midfield next season but we are still lacking creativity, we need someone that can unlock defences, City have been devastating in midfield with Silva, Silva and De Bruyne.... We are being linked with quite a few players, the one who’s impressed me this season has been Brandt and Kai Havertz, I think Havertz is going to be special, looks absolute quality.

Missed this thread first time around. Had a tonne of stress/depression last three years (referenced it on the depression thread) and with that a tonne load of weight, fatigue and night pissing at regular intervals. Had some blood tests at my GPs and been called back as have a diagnosis for Type 2 Diabetes, which is probably no surprise although adverse to the warning signs. Not quite sure what entails or happens next as not researched. My trouble is I have been trying to keep everyone else strong with little thought to my own condition.

Memphis Bellend

I meant Depay obviously, even though he’s a real dépaysement for sure.

I just watched the highlights from last Tuesday against Barca again. City can fuck off. Hopefully we'll have 6 more than them after June 1.

I'm just going to repeat myself from the discussion we had after the Long Night episode: it's great if you just want to watch a high-budget action movie. The CGI, the battle scenes, the flames - it's all very well done and great to watch. But if you're looking for sensible plot resolution, it's garbage. Daenarys goes full-on psychopath with no foreshadowing of it at all before this season, before the previous episode, really. Her plot arc is a gradual growth of confidence and desire to fight for justice against oppression over seven seasons before the second-to-last episode of the show where she loses her mind and starts to burn innocent people to death? It's awful writing. Not to mention the prophecies that were so important in the book. Literally no one has mentioned Azor Ahai this season at all. Comical. We should just use this thread to post ridiculous predictions for how it's going to end next week. I'll go first: they unearth Gregor Clegane's body from the ruins, only to realise that he's unkillable and somehow ship him north of the Wall to go into hiding for 1000 years as the next Night King. Sansa is revealed to be dead, but her face is being used by Brienne, who is secretly a faceless man. Arya murders Jon Snow and Dany to take over the Iron Throne, where she rules as an absolute tyrant. All of this will happen because this episode proves that at no point does a person have to stay true to the character they have been portrayed to be for the past 8 years.

Agree completely Creator Supreme. I was disappointed when we beat Barca last week, depriving Coutinho of the Champions League medal he so richly deserved. Would have loved to see Gerrard play for Chelsea as well. Really would have made his career that much better, and he’d be an even bigger Liverpool legend in my eyes.

My heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

One of those questions to which the answer would probably be different in a year's time but 10 that spring to mind are: The Longest Day LOTR x 3 Edge of Tomorrow Cloud Atlas Goodfellas Elysium Interstellar Fargo Edited out Gravity and added Fargo when I saw Sammy's answers above.

I'm never short of Bluebells!

That’s nowt, you should see Stringy curling one out on Hendo’s doorstep.

This is just weird. If anything, this season has opened my eyes to just how much supporters of other clubs, not just Everton, hate us. Not just dislike, but actually hate. I've not even been looking for them, but today I've seen twitter posts from supporters of West Ham, Arsenal, Sheffield Wednesday (!) and Swansea (!) taking the piss out of us for winning 'fuck all'. Most of the league seems to be the same. I'd never even entertain the notion of bothering my arse posting about another club, but it would appear that the more relevant we become, the more they hate it and feel the need to tell the world about it. Good. Let's hope that next season (and starting in 3 weeks) we ram it down their stupid obsessed fucking throats.

Today isn’t a day for what if’s. Goes without saying it’s utterly shit and soul-destroying not to win the title under these circumstances, but there are a couple of key things for me. We made them win it and kept up our end of the bargain no matter how tough it got, in what was never a fair fight. It would have been the easiest thing in the world for us to wilt and just let it all come to an end anti-climactically. But no, we reeled off 9 league wins in a row while beating a stack of previous European cup winners to reach Madrid, throwing in our greatest ever European performance at least at Anfield into the bargain. Our last 4 or 5 results show phenomenal resilience aside from anything else. Klopp’s made the club an irresistible, runaway steam-train with all of us pulling in the same direction and has consigned this idea we’re somehow a soft touch to the history books. There are new rules for this Liverpool, and whether it be in Madrid, next season and beyond, or both, we will absolutely benefit from the foundations, the belief, the togetherness, the pride and the sense of destiny Kloppo has instilled in us this year in particular. The man is a fucking alchemist and a true working class hero for choosing the LFC aura, story and passion when he had his pick of clubs in far more gilded positions within the modern game. He fits us hand in glove and deserves the last word on this league season. I so much want him to get this shitty 6 finals in a row thing put to bed by lifting the biggest trophy in football and to complete the formality of joining our other legendary Liverpool managers, because that’s exactly what he is. Absolutely transformative and I think however much we all respect him, it will only be one day when he’s gone and we look back at this period in our history that we can fully appreciate what he’s given us back.

That took me down memory lane, to this classic. You could just substitute the names.... https://www.thedailymash.co.uk/sport/sport-headlines/this-will-not-be-a-disaster-moyes-keeps-telling-himself-2013050968042 This will not be a disaster, Moyes keeps telling himself 9th May 2013 NEW Manchester United manager David Moyes has spent the last 24 hours reassuring himself that this is not going to be an unmitigated catastrophe. Following the official announcement of Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement Moyes told friends that he felt like Roy Scheider in Jaws when the camera zooms in on him in that really weird way. According to his friends, Moyes spent 14 hours in his toilet yesterday staring at himself in the mirror, practicing how to look as if he knows what he is doing. One source said: “He keeps telling himself that Manchester United is the world’s biggest club run by clever people who make really important decisions every day. “Which means they must have a very good reason for choosing someone who has never won anything. And so there’s nothing to worry about. “And then he goes back into the toilet.” Another friend said: “He’s had the words ‘it’ll be fine’ tattooed on to his left palm. “Yesterday I had to tell him to stop staring at it or we were going to crash.” The friend added: “He’s also written a poem for Robin van Persie. I told him he didn’t have to do that and then he started to cry.”

Report by Dave Usher And so it ends. In the most predictable way possible. It’s been obvious for weeks that we’d probably win all of our games and it wouldn’t be enough. Leicester were the last hope we had of taking anything off City, as Brighton didn’t have a meatball’s chance in Luke Shaw’s house. All we could do was make sure we didn’t allow some tinpot smalltime deadbeat club like Newcastle or Wolves to have the satisfaction of saying they cost us the title, and thankfully we did that. Nine wins in a row to end the season. Unbeaten at home for the second year running. 97 points. Only one defeat (courtesy of a ref from Manchester). Two Golden Boot winners. The Golden Glove winner. The Premier League and PFA Player of the Year. Trent smashing the assists record for a defender. Andy Robbo being the greatest human being on the planet. I could go on and on about this season, but it’s not over yet because we’ve still got a chance to come away with a big prize. That’s the very least these lads deserve from this incredible season. This game was tough though. Really tough. It’s the kind of game we’ve made a habit of losing over the years. Wolves packed the defence but posed a threat on the break. They’re set up perfectly to pick off good teams, but they’re shite when they have to make the play themselves. So playing a side with our attacking intent suits them perfectly. Throw in the tired legs from that Herculean effort in midweek and the whole distraction of what was happening at Brighton and this had the potential to go south for us. It didn’t though, because these players fought through the tiredness. They blocked out the disappointment they must have been feeling when they heard the City score, and they dug deep to win a game that was threatening to get away from them in the second half. The spirit of this group of players never fails to impress me. It would have been easy to stop fighting and give in to the fatigue when they knew the title had gone but instead they found something deep inside them to fight even harder. Wolves were pushing hard for an equaliser. Their fans were taunting us and the whole thing looked like it could fall flat. But the boys rallied, got the second goal to kill the game and ended the season in a manner befitting of everything that had gone before. They won the game for their own sense of pride and defiance. In fact, defiance was the tone for the majority of the afternoon, although it was briefly punctuated by hope, then confusion, then disappointment. Then back to defiance again. It was a weird day really. We started the game well and got an early goal when Hendo and Trent combined well to set up Mané to score at the Kop end. We were attacking the Kop end because Conor Coady won the toss and made us change ends. The fuck is that about lad? City have got their ex players deliberately missing chances against them while ours are pulling stunts like that? Anyway, we’re 1-0 up and looking good, and then the news comes through that Brighton have scored. Cue mass celebrations around the stadium. Personally I didn’t like it. It was too early and it meant nothing. I understand why people did it and got excited, I just couldn’t buy into it myself as I knew City would come back and I also knew it would be distracting to our players. Then it got really weird. From what I could tell, the original cheer had come from the Anny Road end of the Main Stand. Everyone else seemed to pick up on it from them. A minute later, another cheer went up so I looked to my left and saw the same section of the crowd going mad again. It couldn’t be 2-0, could it? Shit, even I was ready to go mad at that point. Still too soon, but a 2-0 lead would have been a whole different ball game. Then the cheering died down and there was just confusion. No-one seemed to know what was happening, but some of the Wolves fans were celebrating. Then a fella in front of me managed to get a signal on his phone and saw that it was 1-1.

The most epic and brutal thing I've seen today, and I just watched that TV show all the kids are raving about.

Phil Jupitus gear, them.

Brilliant just brilliant sums up exactly how I feel today that report

Superb. Sums up exactly how I'm feeling. As you said on Twitter Dave, fuck everyone else who isn't us!

What does it say about the relevance & long term viability of Everton that these shady puppet-masters would rather dope Leicester City to the title?

Have you asked Dave about that 'Ligue 1 Guy' shield to put under your avatar, mate?

These embarrassing twats have had more clubs than Nick Faldo over the past few seasons.

I stayed at a guest house run by a bluenose on Tuesday and she cracked me up. Had a long chat with her when I checked in and word for word she goes “I know we should try and pretend we’re competing with yous, but it’s just shit being an Everton fan. My son came along with us for 3 years and ended up giving me his season ticket back, he said, Mum, can’t do this no more...we’re fucking crap”. I was pissing myself.

I like when Lucy pulls the ball away when Charlie Brown is about to kick it - never gets old
