LOLiverpooLOL - Next Season

[soggy biscuit]

It is. You're finally growing up and realising obsession with football is for kids and spaccers. Well done you.

Thanks! Do I get a certificate?

[frimmers3]

you should be certified. really.

[Royal With Cheese]

Yeah, that's right. As long as a player of another team does it then it completely excuses every Liverpool player that's ever dived. Ever.

If there's degrees of diving shitness, then Sturridge's comes somewhere between a Suarez and a Bale.

It doesnt excuse anything. I just find it laughable the way diving is called cheating but other attempts to con the ref are not.

It's not Jay, but diving in the penalty area is designed to get the ultimate reward, a penalty. There's no other misdemeanour that has the same reward.

Just purely for the fact I don't like it, I'd also like to see all play acting retrospectively dealt with. Nicking a few yards or claiming a ball is yours when it isn't I'll pass over.

Or a Jobi,Pog,Rooney,Nani,Lampard,Ivanovic,Walcott,Long etc.,etc- most Premier teams have at least two blatant divers in their teams.
It is the ugly side of football and at last refs are trying to stamp it out.
I agree with the earlier poster that appealing for a throw-in when you have clearly put the ball out is just as annoying and I would like to see bookings for that as well.
In the meantime we have to accept that most players are cheats whether that is Reading,Liverpool or any other-regrettably it reflects society where so many people will try to get away with things if they can.

That was my point Vic. Appealing would be a very difficult thing to reduce as sometime genuinely players belive it is their ball. Alos, it opens up a ref who has made a genuine mistake to also book a player. Much as I don't like it we have to stop somewhere.

Why do you insist on calling me Jay when it is quite clear i am not him you tiresome imbecile ?

I am unfamiliar with etch etc. Could you explain please Sogs ? No envelopes please.

Carragher has announced he is to retire at the end of the season. Good servant.

[3 veesinarow]

Nah, great servant. Been at the club for 26 years.

[leon]

Nah, great servant. Been at the club for 26 years.

you would have thought that after all that time he could have learnt some English.

Nobody should be ashamed of their accent. Ive met Jamie a couple of times and he is a really decent down to earth bloke.

[retro_royal]

you would have thought that after all that time he would have won a Championship medal.

Lots of players dont win league titles. He has lots of winners medals though. A lot more than most.

Funnily enough, 26 years was the exact length of time between titles for United from 1967 onwards. FACT.

[Royal With Cheese]

It's going to be longer than that before Liverpool win a title.

Yep deffo. Still a decent prem side though.

As opposed to which articulate players?
Ashley Cole
Beckham
Noel Hunt
Joe Cole
James Milner
Carlton Cole etc.,etc?


I would suggest that most foreign players speak better English than those brought up in the UK and the Republic.

Agreed. Slightly better then West Brom and Swansea.

If you expect me to disagree you will be wrong.
