  1. Report over here in Canada that they've withdrawn their suit against Purslow etc. and settled with RBS. Hopefully that's the last we see of them.
  2. Great to see his first meaningful possession was on their end line, moving past defenders. Can't wait to see him chop and change with Suarez.
  3. Amen. Watching what's been done to Suarez from across the Atlantic has been sickening/fascinating. A witch-hunt, from start to finish. And watching Terry walk away un-touched--if not openly excused--by the English press, just re-inforces that fact.
  4. After that inexplicable call on the winner vs the Blueshite, I could care less. Just win and advance.
  5. Nice one. On his butt, looking to the ref for a foul for a split-second, but then got off his duff, made the run and put it in the net.
  6. I was surprised how much room Sunderland allowed at the back. The pattern for teams like that is usually "line up the bus, try to keep them outside, and then sneak a goal on the counter". I don't know if the direct ball would work too well against teams that do that. It worked well today as there was room for it to work. So perhaps a good adjustment to circumstances, by the players, by Rodgers, or both?
  7. Suarez ran in front of that ball from Allen, then clipped it forward with his foot behind him to get it past the defender. On purpose. I see players doing that because they've mistimed their run, or the pass is off, but he did it to maintain his momentum to beat the defender.
  8. Effective little run by Henderson to draw the defender off. As for Suarez, well, I know the pundits will still try to come up with some way to criticize him. But I can't think of what it might be. Teeth too big?
  9. Maybe they'd rather he dove? Un-fucking-stoppable.
  10. [YOUTUBE]xQhn2sy8r5g[/YOUTUBE] I think Billy Connolly (on the left) first coined the term.
  11. It's a penalty in the first minute, it's a penalty in the last. And he still can't blow the fucking whistle in the sixth minute of five added.
  12. At 1:30 in the video, he does a little skip to get his feet properly placed then hits a cross on the half-volley. Sublime.
  13. Seems to me they should be taking the piss out of people who deserve it. There are plenty of pretentious douche-bags out there to aim at. Turn on the TV for 30 seconds, and take your pick.
  14. So now every day when he comes in to work he gets to see his own head covered in pigeon shit?
  15. All this demonstrates is that, unlike Pound and Larkin, Samuel's ignorance and stupidity isn't countered by any discernible redeeming talent.
  16. I heard someone on talksport this week say of Suarez "he scores great goals, but he's not a great goal-scorer". It's pithy, but it's bullshit. What a fantastic player. Fantastic attitude, fantastic drive, fantastic skill, the whole shebang.
