JB Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Still fuming about this, such a hard one to take. We were brilliant tonight though which is amazing considering we were without Bruno, ASM and Wilson, Howe has made us so much better than the sum of our parts. As others have said it's worth taking a moment after such a sickening defeat to remember were the club was a year ago and how good it feels to care again, as infuritating as it can be at times.

St. Maximin Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I know I mentioned elsewhere, but we can slate VAR all we like, it didn’t overturn a goal. So it needs to be clearly and obviously wrong and that looks way too unclear. Yes it may be a technical issue, but without VAR that’s still not a goal.

Saying without VAR it’s still not a goal when VAR was supposed to be introduced because without VAR it wasn’t a goal and it should have been isn’t the right argument in my opinion.

Billy Warthog Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I've got to drive from Hampshire to Newcastle tomorrow, setting off at 5.30am. Can't sleep after that game! Part of me is pissed off about offside shoulders and dodgy ref's watches etc, but now I've had a chance to lie here and think about it properly - I can only believe this really is the opening act of a new era. Those bastards were properly rattled, hence the booing off from the scouse monkeys. Before, there was only pity and sarcasm after another thrashing. We owe them next time at our place. In the meantime, let's channel this fury to our next game - Palace at home. I'll be there, can't fucking wait. And let's hope we continue to do ourselves justice until we can think about adding to the squad in January. Our bench needs a whole lotta work. But I am one proud Mag tonight, as you should be too.

McDog Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Well, just finished watching the match. Isak was not offside on his second goal and although Newcastle did go down a million times it seemed like they were going to run the clock until LFC scored. Eddies guys fought like Lions though. Completely unfair result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said exactly the same to my friends tonight as the game ended. "We had them rattled and they are uncomfortable with it". Not just Liverpool, the whole of the Premier league are glancing at our amazing progress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardiola has the right idea. Calm, calculating, already working out how he's going to turn things around. And doesn't look like he's going to have a cardiac arrest any moment.

Yorkie Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Sorry I know it's nothing new but fuuucking hell Fletcher's commentary. He is absolutely my least favourite out there. If it's not the sudden unrequired bursts of excitement, it's the Liverpool poetry. Constantly fucking wittering with just a generally irritating voice. Made it all the more painful tonight tbh, he's just so fucking awful. Worse than Matterface. What's more it just seems to always be him on BT. I had absolutely no idea who he was before BT got going. Fuck knows why he got picked up, and where from, for this massive gig - particularly when there's so many decent ones who you only seem to hear now and again on whatever channel it might be.

Ken Boon Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Its not worth getting upset about tonights result. We all know that the Premier League and its refs are in cahoots to preserve the interests of the usual big (but dirty) six clubs. The game is bent as f*ck and the amount of VAR decisions given against teams outside the dirty six prove it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped watching the Premier league and last year in August after starting to work very closely with our office in England started watching the premier league again. I found out I could get all the games in English and who else to support but the team I had merch from in the 90's and followed then. The the takeover happened so it was watching every game they played. I'm not familiar with the ins and outs of VAR. Anyway, cheers. That was a robbery job.

NBC here in America showed it a few seconds later. Maybe someone else in America knows, does NBC just get raw feeds they mix/edit themselves? I'd assumed they just take the Sky/BT edit and just add their own commentary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 After calming down this really was an impressive performance. I really didn't think we were in any trouble until Wood&Murphy were introduced and our attacking threat went to zero. Then you consider who we were missing and the first hour becomes even better. Squad depth is sorely lacking but that's something that can't be fixed in two windows, still praying for a CM or a winger before the window shuts. Howe has done fucking amazing job transforming us so far, exciting times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all those players missing they went toe to toe for the most part. That and Isak had two fantastic shots. That second was a work of art although disallowed. I thought they would get worked over and they didn't. I think Eddie is turning heads all around the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
