I was seriously losing my shit that we could not break down 9 man Liverpool only for them to score the OG

They were the best team we have played this season though, even at 10 men for the majority of the match they caused us problems, Klopp has them firing once again and I have expect them to challenge for the league.

As for us these past two matches have told me a lot about us and where we are, fantastic to get 4 points out of the last two games, sets us up nicely for a top 4 push.
 
Someone asked the question on Reddit - apart from the disallowed goal was there really any bad decisions? I’d say the only one was udogie being booked as he won the ball. I think the ref was a bit card happy toward the end. I thought we were superbly disciplined as he’d have been quick to even things up. All in all I thought the refs weren’t awful. One decision (off the field) has been allowed to cloud the entire game.
Re the disalllwed goal - 1000s of goals were wrongly allowed and disallowed over the years pre VAR and plenty since VAR have been scrutinised. Hopefully they decide to fuck it off at the end of the season as it reminds us that mistakes happen - it’s just part of the game.

... the VAR Offside rule is always mired in controversies & confusion.

Make it simple - None of that bullsh1t with drawing vertical lines to the hand or shoulde or chest/
Simple - just the foot up to the knee. Whichever feet closest to the line determines offside or not.
if level = advantage to the scorer.

they pay the PGMOL $$$ to fck things up consistently
SOn was found to be offside in a similar situation last yr. abve pic is not Sonny
Said this from the very off …. Make it about the foot positioning. Simple

Plus you’d get more goals as the body movement would favour the attacker
 
Looks like Var (my chicken) came home to roost last night (he went missing in Madrid in June 2019 - thought we'd lost him for good)...

Good old Var, I love him so much.
 
Just shut your whining yap, you pathetic victim playing scumbags.

It's a well known fact that victim FC have had more VAR decisions go their way and have benefited more than everyone else put together.
One decision goes against them and all hell breaks loose.
They are demanding that the game gets replayed or points awarded to them.
Never have I seen so much crying over one decision.
What's to say we wouldn't have changed our game and gone on to win comfortably?
This all makes the victory so much sweeter.

Suck it up ya bin dipping, hub cap stealing shithouses. M'lud!
FIXED case for the Prosecution closed!

We didnt play well against 9 because they camped at the edge of box and our 2 main attackers were gone off. Believe it or not its hard adjust to to that and we had to do it twice. Its not something you practice for too often
Agree... playing against 8 defenders is clearly a harder task than playing against a more orthodox back 4 in a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3... I think we'd probably have scored earlier HAD they still had 11 men on the pitch... but as Ian Brady* once said, that's just Myra Hindsight talking....

*(He didn't actually say that, before you write in!!!)


I had a whiny little dipper whinging about our celebrations. I sent him a dozen clips of klopp celebrating meaningless wins. Still waiting on a reply
Did you send him the one where he popped his Hammy last season against us??
Or just the usual OTT chest thumping, heart attack inducing wonky toothed gurning he usually does?
 
I know we all complain about dodgy decisions but it feels nice that they went our way for once! Over the years the amount of times we have been fucked over and the fact it was against these cunts makes it even sweeter
:ange-lol:
 
Great day out. Love the scouse tears. After all we have had to endure about them over the years, can go fuck themselves.

Only downside was a pretty unsavoury incident i saw as I was coming into a ground. A bloke in a spurs polo was being lead away by two stewards who he tried to headbutt and repeatedly called "fucking n******." Pretty shocking and I hope the guy does time for it. His son was there too and looked mortified
Hope the police and the club throw the book at him ! Once the police have dealt with him he needs banning for life , cunt
 
can someone tell me why this was flagged offside?

It will go unnoticed due to the victims and their plight against every decision that doesn't go their way but what the blooming hell is that then?

Because Udogie is blocking Allisons view from an offside position. I dont know if its correct, given it wasnt a goal, but had Richarlisons shot gone in there is no way it would have stood.
