Off topic but one of the replies to that John07 tit regarding Hillsborough is quite good especially this bit: " The failure was not the decision to open the exit gate but not to manage the consequences of that decision e.g. by notifying relevant police and security personnel and making arrangements to disperse the fans once they had entered the ground. There was no crushing or even overcrowding in the area between the turnstiles and the stand, and people were able to move about freely in this area throughout. All police had to do was do exactly what their predecessors did in 1981 and 1988, namely close the entrances to overcrowded pens and direct fans to the quieter entrances. No one did this because, shockingly, no one noticed that an influx of people into the ground would cause crushing in the overcrowded central pens - the connection just wasn't made until people were already dying. Signage was also dreadful meaning that the tunnel leading to the overcrowded central pens was the only obvious entrance to the terraces. There was never an excess of fans in the Leppings Lane End as a whole, they were just badly dispersed, so ticketlessness isn't really relevant either. This wasn't a series of tough decisions that went the wrong way, it was a series of elementary failures in crowd management, personnel coordination and decision making." As someone who was there, I've been saying this for 30 years.

Fuck what City do, we win 12 games out of the next 17 we win the league no matter what they do. We just need to focus on what we do.

I like Gardiner and if he was going for deputy leader, I would probably vote for him. As it is, it's Starmer & Raynor for me too.

Loved that white kit.

I went to both of those ties. I've never felt as sick at a match as I did when Darren Anderton put them 1-0 up at Highbury. The celebrations in the North Stand when we equalised though were fucking mad. It wasn't until about an hour after the game that I found out Ronnie Whelan had scored. I thought the free kick from Barnes had gone straight in. The replay was just dire.

Lallana's little dummy and turn in the first half to send Sigurdsson for the Echo was a joy to behold.

Hahahahahaha

Phillips is the weak link at the back there, looks out of his depth.

Mike Riley and the PGMOL made the decision for the on-field referee to not look at the pitch side monitors at the start of the season.

Jumanji 2. Karen Gillen, that is all.

Jordan Henderson take a bow. Immense performance!

In laws have just given me a bottle of Lamb's Navy Rum for the 3rd Christmas in a row. I know I shouldn't complain about a gift but a little variety wouldn't go amiss.

Get the fuck in!!!! I've waited nearly 40 years for us to be World Champions and I'm going to enjoy it. Get that badge on our sleeves!!

This is the global temperature map for yesterday. Australia looks like it's on fire!

Just got Atletico, nice mockering Dave.
