Whitey Grandad

One of the great games, one that will live in legend. F!ck me we were poor in the first half, slow, pedestrian just nowhere near crisp enough and passing the ball to anyone but ourselves and when that penalty was saved I was resigned to another dismal defeat by the snuggest of the smug self-righteous but that second half is up there with the best. (Reject to those on RAWK for their comments) And gentlemen in England down the pub Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here, And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks That sang with us upon Saint Mary's day.

The conditions that he set and that he knew we'd never meet show that he was against.

I'm surprised Huth wasn't booked for having his shirt removed.

I think he set those tests knowing full well that we would never meet them.

I really don't understand which world you live in. Where do you think the government gets its money from? I repeat, from the poor bloody workers.

Villa - Liverpool Sunday 4th Feb was 15:00 (on Sky). It's usually the games moved to a Sunday because of Europa League on a Thursday that can sometimes be 15:00 if they're not on TV.

You have to remember who actually pays for all those that you have listed. What about the poor bloody workers?

The loss of income can be very significant.

Not always. Some kick off at 15:00 and there have been other variations.

If you think this lot are bad you should try the other lot, they're even worse.

It's on Sunday because Liverpool are playing in the Europa League Thursday night. I don't know where the 1:30 comes from.

I don't think we're on TV, Sky are showing Newcastle v. Sunderland first and the Manchester derby later.

Well said. Like it or not these referees are the best that we have. Anyone who has not tried to referee a game at any level is unlikely to appreciate the total concentration that is required and sometimes the brain can get overloaded, especially if the players don't help and start acting up.

Ah but how long until the next one?

Twitter the year might be Lee Mason Reason has prevailed

Why not go further and open it up to a telephone vote? Twitter, even, except that they wouldn't make any money out of that.

This was discussed in the press many years ago. The premiums were so high that many clubs didn't bother, they just covered the risks themselves.

Why? The whole point of a professional club is to provide entertainment for a paying public. I don't believe that this entertainment shold be provided solely throgh the electronic media. A far better suggestion is to cut out the league stages of the Champions League.

I have to pick you up here on your use of QED.

Where I come from 'think tank' is rhyming slang for something.

And so it should.

Benteke's was given by the assistant, to be fair to the ref. I think our claim was better that his but different ref, different day. (Nice use/non-use of the apostrophe by the way )

We've always like the idea of a Joker that you could play once in a season before any game. Any points from that game are doubled.
