The Kraken

Fuck me. So poor.

That’s not a red card. Definite foul, definite yellow, but Stephens was covering.

I don’t disagree with the second bit. I thought Baz was weak for the first goal but I’d give him a pass on the second one being as it went through THB.

A bit unfair, it went through THB’s legs.

Doubt it, if he’s serving his notice. I imagine the fee was to release him from his terms, sounds like he’ll just do gardening leave and join Man U when that’s done.

Yes and sort of, Stephens is sort of in a free role. It’s quite odd but it’s been a bloody good half tbf.

Very good half that.

I believe it’s exactly what the club did with Shields, and they were definitely pissed off with him.

If true, perhaps because Saints are pissed off that another new recruit has been tempted away within months so just playing hardball and making him see out his terms.

It certainly seemed that was his opinion of it.

Bree’s delivery so far has been way off.

Come on!

That is shit goalkeeping.

Well there it is.

Yep. Madness.

Sky showing the lineup at Stephens LB, Bree RB. Actual lineup……looks like they’re right.

Tbf watching it back at half time it looked like Diaz himself was in an onside position when Salah headed it forward. However there were at least two or three Liverpool players in an offside position right in front of the keeper who I’d say were definitely interfering with play even if they didn’t make an attempt to play the ball. The defender touching it though made that irrelevant. Dopey rule.

If the defender attempts a clearance and makes contact it’s deemed a new phase of play and invalidates the original offside. If the defender doesn’t make contact with the ball then it’s offside. As you say, an absolute mess.

It comes to something that I’d still rather hear what she’s got to say rather than listen to the twatterings of professional dickhead Joey Barton.

Of course they will. They always pivot to the party that is likely to win so they can be seen to be associated with the winning side. They’ve been doing it for decades. Current polling indicates that the Tories are in store for an absolute hammering, The Sun have basically already shown their hand in the last few weeks that they’re favouring Labour.

Stop being a sad fuck. Twar knows his onions.

Like I said, agree to disagree. I think a start point of Bednarek, KWP, Bree, AArm, SArm, even Che should be a massive leg up at this level. Add in THB who effectively got promoted and Flynn Downes who I think we both agree is PL quality, that’s a squad that already looks very decent even without the other quality additions that were made. I stand by my original dissent to your point that we had a standing start, I genuinely can’t agree to that at all. And Mason Holgate shouldn’t be used as a barometer for anything other than being the exception to the rule; he won Everton’s player of the season in the PL not so long ago! How on earth….

I genuinely find it very difficult to comprehend the absolute radio silence from SFC on Chris. Forgetting it is one thing but failing to remedy the situation is just completely shameful.
