Trouble making mackem cunt ban her.

No can’t do that, certain posters won’t be able to post links to her articles as subjective truth that everything at the club is horrific

Proper folie à deux going on in this thread.

Don’t mention that condition man, you’ve no idea how difficult it is to manage in reality

I think I'd have to laugh if Liverpool ended the window with Giorgi, Chiesa, and Guehi.

I'd personally cry myself like, hate those cunts

It almost feels like it’s exactly what Parish has been doing tbh 

Parish going public was an attempt to start a bidding war. Guehi's contract situation has meant he was always likely to move this summer, Parish is just trying to maximise the price.

Couldn't agree more.  Getting pig sick of Shearer if I'm honest.

I think he is trying extra hard to appear not partisan in our favour. His comments about Schar last week and both incidents from yesterday, seem a bit compensatory to me. I mean I get the fact there’s elements of interpretation to all of these, but he states he's certain that Schar was the instigator and that it hits the shoulder despite all of the video evidence to the contrary.

Longstaff races into the box, pushes the ball into space. Defender shoulder charges him because he's got zero chance of getting the ball. 

Anywhere else on the pitch it's a foul. 

 

Just me? 😂

Nah I felt they were getting away with that all game. Was quite of a lot of obvious barges as the ball was being played too. Seemed as if the ref was ball watching and missing what was happening. Happened to Bruno quite a few times resulting in the pass being a touch wayward. I think they were cute enough to make it not look like an obvious off the ball hit. Obviously just in my opinion like

Utter bunch of cunts 😂

No not racist, but sarcastic and fairly cutting 😂

This one too

Definitely Maybe?

 

Would be quite fitting for it to be announced at the same time as the Oasis reforming announcement tbf

Wonder if we'll confirm the lad from Blackburn this week

He's already here, think they just have to wait for the tribunal to ratify his fee

Is this how y'all talk at the pub to your mates or would you be embarrassed to voice these opinions face to face?  

Id imagine I’d end up in forum jail, if I posted on here the way I speak to my mates.

That's a brilliant read thank you for posting. Makes me excited to see him back. Where is that article from?

The Craig Mope article a few post above

I know he's not played in ten months, but was it not widely reported that the club had arranged behind closed doors games to help get him back up to speed? I’d be surprised if he plays no part on Wednesday myself

Edit: first result on google btw

 

 

 

Might be worth looking up Louise Taylor and in particular who she happens to support, before taking her "speculation" as gospel

It seems the board are considering setting up Howe for failure so they can bring in a new manager for the next phase of the project… also someone (with a continental team) that can work with young foreign talent with potential.

If they wanted to do that they’d have allowed him to go to England this summer. Where would the logic be in harming your own team's progress to undertake an action they could choose to do at any point? Honestly I think some people need to put down the cool aid, and step away from the daft conspiracy stuff. As Occam’s razor suggests, I think there’s likely a much more straightforward explanation for our slow/poor window

This was widely reported on. Too lazy to google but there was an eleventh hour meeting between eddie and mitchell to settle whatever differences they had regarding eddie's say in transfer business.

There were reports about lack of clarity around role boundaries. There was never definite reporting the Eddie was concerned at Mitchell's appointment. If anything it was speculated that he was concerned as to how far Bunce's influence might’ve had on his training intensity. So it’s a stretch to get to what you’re suggesting.

Semenyo played a free pass into the box because Kelly was forcing him inside despite being a meter from being out of bounds. At best, it was unimpressive marking. Hall came on and transformed that left side with Barnes. There's a reason one player fetched 30m at 18 years old, and the other was allowed to run down his contract in the prime of his career.

Aye definitely, I bet Semenyo would’ve gotten no change at all out of Hall if he'd started too 🤦🏻‍♂️ and by your "Logic" Antony is one of the best wingers in global football.

Honestly some people just love to be negative and piss and moan. I bet your nickname is Sad Sack at work like

Poor marking on the goal which he played on. But, arguably more importantly, he was a true passenger on the attack. Less progressive than BDB, somehow, on the left.

Sorry but that goal came from Livramento switching off and letting Tavernier waltz into the box unchallenged, on the other side of the pitch to where Kelly was. He was deeper that the other defenders, but that’s not how Tavernier's goal happened

Clearly not a lot of psychologically minded folk on here, do you not think it might’ve been a bit of a headfuck for him going back there? 
 

Didn’t think he was great, but didn’t think he was as terrible as some on here are making out. Let’s be honest it was primarily our right that was exploited during the spell where they bossed things. Not too unsurprising given who we had playing there

Just now, SUPERTOON said:

Do you think Howe will throw him straight back in ? (I hope he does)

I’d imagine he plays at Forest on Wednesday, see how he gets on there

Is everyone watching a different incident with the hand ball?

The ball hits him square on the badge, below the shoulder above the cuff. 

Clear hand ball.

They're talking about the sleeve, but if my memory serves that was only ever intended to be used as a marker for defensive actions. Ie a defender goes to block a shot, it hits his sleeve,  no handball and no subsequent free kick or penalty.
 

But if you put the ball in the back of the net whilst attacking with your arm it’s a fucking handball

Just now, Armchair Pundit said:

Surely Joe will get a retrospective red for that?

 

Glad the Bournemouth staff are getting carded though, hilarious 

No because he got a yellow, for example see Havertz at St James' last season

Upper arm stopped being a handball a few years ago didn't it?

 

Unless it changed again

 

Surely that’s for giving a penalty etc, not for scoring a goal with the arm.
