Quite right. And Luis Suarez netted 15 league goals in his first 1 1/2 season for us. Darwin is now at 13, his goals pr. minute played being quite a bit better than Luis. We just have to wait until Darwin starts missing the woodwork.

Love his hairdo, reminds me of some freak psycho from one of those old horror movies. My nams is Darwin Bates, I'm just a normal guy My nams is Darwin Bates, I'm just a normal guy

Count me in on the Darwin Ridge battle. And he can keep his cute little braids too. Only man alive to dress like a school girl and still look lika a predator - Hombre!

If they hire a new gaffer and Manu end 8th in the league, they'll all be screaming. They all seem to believe they have some devine right to be the best club in England, and 8th is just unaccetable. When Kloppo ended 8th in his firt season here, we all looked at it as a new beginng. To lead a top football club it's not enough to know the football stuff, you need to be a an expert psychologist as well. Klopp is both, ten Hag is neither.

According to Mail Online: ”It is also claimed that the Dutchman made his squad listen to the reception that greeted the champions from the away end - a stark comparison to the home faithful's reaction, or what was left of it. Ten Hag, who has reportedly planned to give his players an extra day off if they won the derby, ripped into his team after the game, saying that they can 'never' play like his successful Ajax team.” Is this really true? My oh my. He’s trying to whip confidence into his team. And then making excuses for himself. Could you imagine Kloppo doing the same if going through a bad period? Sad thing is Ten Hag looks like a ”dead man walking” – Prepare for a new ”Someone’s having a big laugh”-thread . If you’re a gambling man, next manager to be sacked looks to be certain bet.

Football wouldn't be the same without the warm and smiling face of their Mr. Charm gaffer would it?

It was much easier 15 years ago. Back then I just wanted them to lose on every occasion. Ever since Solskjaer it’s a painful mix though. Obviously I still like to see them lose, but I don’t want them to sack their gaffer, so I also want them to win from time to time. And now with them playing in the CL. I’d like to see them beaten, but I don’t want to see them in the EL after ending 3rd in their group. Do I want them to qualify for the last 16 or don’t I? It’s doing my head in.

We need to win the group to avoid those extra 2 games. There's a slight chance we might do that.

I think he had an excellent game. He was everywhere, had an eye for a quick direct forward pass and bossed the midfield. For me MOM is a toss up between Endo and Gravenberch. Great guy, Happy to have him in our team, allthough the opposition yesterday was kind of shit wasn't it?

Right. Not forgetting VAR interfering with the MacAllister's yellow card, upgrading it to a red as it was "clear and obvious". So "clear and obvious" that a neutral panel later had to downgrade it again to a yellow

If someone apologizes to you for something, isn't it common courtesy to say something like "we understand, apology accepted". Wouldn't like to see that. We can't use an apology for anything. Might as well not get one.

I just don't get it. Should Kloppo not say his opinion because of media or whatever. I'm not braught up that way. I agrre with Klopp. IMHO a replay shouldn't be out of the question. I know there won't be one, but that doesn't change my opinion. FA wants no more than to gloss this over ASAP, I don't care. Let's just stand up and be counted. Consequenses? I f*** don't care.

Why haven't they punshed Macca for his "you were playing with 12 men"-post on social media? Macca's wrong BTW. Now they have VAR it's 13 men,

They look bad don't they. Really bad at times. As they have been for most parts of the last 10 years. Only this year they've also removed the one player who saved them occasionally, De Gea, and replaced him with a rich man's Karius.

Correct. We must learn to play the game, Not only the other team, but the refs as well. I.e. next match instruct Salah to go down if he's touched inside the box. The on field ref and especially VAR need cajones to reject a pen. They're cowards, Use it!

Main Stand, Anfield Stadium, Oct 21st 2023 – Liverpool vs Everton. Best mates Darren Scotland and Dan Crook take their seats: Dan: ”How nice it was of Howie to give us a month vacation and tickets to go to a proper football match.” Darren: Yeah, I’ve always wanted to watch a football match in full. Great mate that Howie, isn’t he?” 10 mins into the match and Dan spots their mate Simon Short on the other side of the pitch. Dan: ”Look Darren, isn’t it Simon over there on the other side? That guy in black running up and down between the stands and the pitch?” Darren: ”Let’s have a look. Yes it is Simon! What a surprise!” Linesman Simon Short waves his flag for offside. Dan: ”Hey Darren. He’s got a flag with him. He’s waving to us!” Both Dan and Darren stand up and wave back to their mate, shouting: Dan and Darren: ”Over here Simon!. Over here!!” They’re then interrupted when Luis Diaz scores a goal. Dan: “Oh no Liverpool scored!” Darren: ”Well at least my bet on Liverpool as winners is in.” Stadium board says: ”Checking disallowed goal!” Dan: ”There’s that message again, ”Checking disallowed goal”, just like the one we had back in Stockdon remember?” Darren: ”Can’t remeber that” Dan: ”It happened at the same time McIlroy had that row in Ryder cup. Guess you were occupied.” Darren: ”I just don’t’ get this ”disallowed goal” message. It looked just a normal goal to me, nothing spectacular.” Dan: ”Maybe it’s because a foreigner scored, kind of a brexit thing or something? It says here in the programme the scorer is from Colombia, that’s not in Britain is it?” Darren: ”Haven’t got a clue, mate. But look, the home crowd isn’t cheering. The blue ones in the corner are, ha ha.” Dan (laughing): ”Yeah, I see that. We’re in Merseyside you know. Strange people live up here.” Darren (laughing): ”Yeah. They don’t even know when to celebrate. Thick as fuck those Scousers, aren’t they?” Match ends 0-0 and Darren goes down to be betting shop to collect his winnings. Clerk: ”I’m sorry Sir. Your bet is not a winner” Darren (angry): “Listen here, son. Liverpool scored Everton didn’t. So Liverpool won, right?” Clerk : “The goal was disallowed!” Darren (angrier): “Do you know who I am? I’m Darren Scotland! I know perfectly well it was disallowed, the stadium board showed that. Disallowed or not, a goal is a goal isn’t it? Now, go and get your manager you daft prick!” Later outside without his winnings Darren meets up with Dan again. Darren: ”Those thieving bastard Scousers denied me my winnings. I’ll report that to Howie. We’ll find a way to get even some day!” Dan: “I’m sure we will. Have to run. See you next week?” Darren: “Sorry, I’m invited over to the Emirates next week. Our mate Monsour said he had a gift for me. I’m really exited.” Dan: ”OK, see you back at work in a fortnight then.” Darren: ” Yeah, while I’m, gone you check out if there’s any good sports on the telly that afternoon. It’s kind of boring just watching football.” Dan: ”I’ll do that, good bye for now and say hello to Mansi for me”

I hope I'm miles out. You will be because DEngland is lying. Whatever the truth really is we shouldn't come out as the bad guys for exposing it.

If D England had come out and said "I looked at it and thought it was offside. It was a mistake I'm sorry" you'd have a point. The problem is he's lying when he says "I thought a goal was given". That makes it worse

Yes. And that is one hell of a good reason to continue our war against them. The sooner we lay down arms, the sooner they can start their pay back ageneda.

The explanation given that D England thought the ref had given a goal is incomprehensible to the extent I think we can conclude he’s lying, especially as he didn’t try to rectify it when he saw play was about to resume with a free kick to Spurs. That doesn’t mean, however, he’s corrupt or has taken a bung. The most probable is that D England had a quick look at the offside and concluded it was indeed offside, thus saying: ”check completed!”. Then later he realized he’d made a huge blunder, lying to cover his incompetence by trying to blame some miscommunication. Then again it’s a possible 2nd answer. That would involve Scotland Yard.

The Liverpool game on Sunday will be a difficult one for Brighton, especially after we were humiliated by VAR last weekend.

With the information we have the only way we could have a case is incorrect use of VAR. After all the ref initially gave a yellow. If our club has any other info about D England we'll be faced with something else and much bigger. I wouldn't rule that out complelety bearing in mind the explanation after the disallowed goal. "I thought he'd given it". Really? How's that even possible? Even if he had 10 double whiskys, was snorting cocain and watching Ryder cup while getting a BJ from a hooker, he'd known it was a disallowed goal he was checking.

Someone on here demanded a rematch. It was dismissed as impossible, which it probaly is. But, if it could be proved VAR delibaretly tried to prevent the goal, and I'm not advocating they did, what would the consequenses be? If they did it on purpose and it can be proved they did, surely the match has to be played again,or? I know it's speculation and all that, but if?

Excellent. In isolation we'd never appeal this card. It would be fruitless. Either our club sits on some info we don't have, or they're just not letting this go easily. Good to see, wartime.

My bet is Tierney with Taylor VAR
