  1. Gooch I'l admit i'm going off Carra because of a few of the very points you rightly mention there. However I met him at a meet and greet before lockdown and it was very obvious he loved the club. Maybe I'm old school but anyone calling any ex player a **** needs to have a long hard look at themselves but that's just me.
  2. I always thought we respected our players ( present and past ) or do we only do that when things are going well. Calling anyone who gave 100 % for the jersey a **** is cheap but maybe it's the world we live in now sadly. As for mentioning GOT that's what this forum might turn into if people keep thinking these conspiracy theories.
  3. Serious question Daisy. How can you call a player who was instrumental in us lifting the Cl in Istabul a ****. ?
  4. Seriously dockers do you honestly think that was a pen ? That was never a penalty . As a defender just because you put your hand on an attackers back does not mean you have fouled him. Mane was looking for it there out of desperation.
  5. By the way that very same referee gave us a very soft penalty against Leicester in October 2019 when Mane was nudged in the back in injury time. Was that part of the conspiracy to make sure we won the title last season because I'm genuinely confused. The referees are not bent lads. They're just shit ffs. It's why FIFA don't take them to the World Cup any more.
  6. Definitely agree with you there Dave it was never a penalty in this game but to claim it's bent is beneath you mate. There's a thread further down the page laughing at Evertonians for years and deriding them for moaning about Clive Thomas and Collina and now it's our fans claiming exactly the same narrative which seems to be becoming the default excuse on here after every defeat or bad decision we get. Does anyone really think there was an officials meeting at the start of the season to unfairly target us and make sure we didn't win games ? I can't believe anyone seriously entertains that notion. Yes we've had awful luck with injuries but there's still a core of players out there who have lifted the 2 major prizes this past 2 seasons and were happy to receive all the praise when things were going well but have gone into hiding these past couple of months. Where were the leaders on the pitch tonight ? Easy for people to criticise a young 20 year old playing his first Derby tonight but there were more senior players out there who were conspicuous by their absence. Our problems are much deeper than dark conspiracy theories. It's easy to be wise after the event but the investment made by the owners after winning Number 6 and finally winning the league has been criminally negligent. You strengthen the squad when you're on top and our owners failed miserably on that front. Jurgen has performed miracles playing moneyball under their ownership but you can't keep pulling a rabbit out of the hat forever.
  7. Great report as always Dave. Read somewhere that Martin Tyler is actually 75 today. He should be pensioned off now ffs. He doesn't even try and hide his disdain for us.
  8. Never that arsed about the Charity Shield but really hope the Reds win and then Jurgen organises a photo shoot on Monday morning with the PL , CL , Super Cup , World Club Cup trophies and the Shield. The resultant fume from every other fan base on social media would be so funny.
  9. Pele was probably the first global superstar on the back of some impressive displays in and scoring 2 goals in the 1958 World Cup final as a 17 year old. However if i remember rightly I think a lot of his goals included those scored in exhibition matches for Santos when they toured Europe and America regularly. In my opinion Maradona will always be the greatest of all time simply because of what he achieved in an era where defenders got away with anything.
  10. As a Derry man I'm biased but in my opinion he's definitely the greatest Irishman. What he did for our city and the whole country will never be forgotten. An absolute gentleman. His lasting legacy is a peace process that's saved countless lives in the past 20 odd years and gave hope to a better future here for everyone. What a cruel twist of fate that dementia took hold of him in his latter years.
