[Niall_Quinn]

The whole weekend seems to have been about managers, players and pundits moaning about the Christmas schedule. I mean, how much do they actually want to be paid to do a bit of work? STFU and earn at least a tiny fraction of your silly money.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Holgate now heads right at Adrian.

[Letters]

Oi, Everton. Stop aiming for the Liverpool ‘keeper :doh:

[Niall_Quinn]

Virtually an open goal and Holgate manages to find the keeper. Absolute garbage.

[Letters]

“Outstanding save again”

:lol:

Literally no way the ‘keeper could have got out of the way :doh:

[Letters]

Now THAT was a good save by Pickford

[Letters]

Has Maccy’s narcolepsy struck again? :unsure:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tom Hundredstone winding Milo so he misses our game. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lots of talk about facials on BBC's programme. :unsure:

Woeful touch from Richalison.

Can't seem to nod off, despite this match.

Big Dunc will be suggesting to Ancelotti to bring him off again after the next attack.

Walnut's new Muslim disguise hasn't helped his game any.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Minamino off, Ox on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[Letters]

Great goal tbf

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pickford saves one from Ox that was going wide.

[Niall_Quinn]

"Nothing like playing in the first team, to build your career." - Martin Keown, 2020

[Niall_Quinn]

Was the goal really as good as they're making out? Or is the Beeb's one match so shite they need to seize on any crumb?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Well they do have our game tomorrow.

I think it's more that everything Liverpool is somehow something never seen before.

And Keown is an idiot.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ancelotti is wondering how three Champions League wins has led him to here.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three added minutes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kean. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Liverpool 1-0 Neverton, FT.

Klopp trying everything he can to get them out of the competition and Everton still fail.

[Letters]

It was a brilliant goal.
And a pretty good game.
But Liverpool weren’t anything special.
They just seem to turn up and win regardless :(

[Niall_Quinn]

This lot aren't ever going to lose again. Getting boring now. Boring, boring Liverpool.

I'd have thought so - he's got them all ends up: "The Premier League asked us to respect the winter break. That's what we do. "

it's the FA as usual messing things up for their own competition, like quite a few years ago when they gave Moan U a bye to the fourth round so they could sit by the swimming pool in south america - oh sorry i mean play in the club world cup because 'it might help england win a bid to host the world cup' :haha: - while every other team was freezing their nuts off

[Marc Overmars]

Stupid from the FA and PL for not taking this into consideration when implementing this winter break.

They should scrap all replays and offer a higher portion of the TV revenue to the lower league teams.

[GP]

Replays are dumb. The schedule is too congested as it is.

[Letters]

Replays are dumb. The schedule is too congested as it is.

Nah. Keep replays, make the league cup for Championship and below.

[Marc Overmars]

Scrap the League Cup as well. Not sure if any other country has 2 domestic cup competitions.

[Niall_Quinn]

Fuck these pussy players.


EXCLUSIVE: Premier League warned clubs that arranging games during the winter break could damage the mental health of their players...

What a load of bollocks. Now we know what that shitty 1 minute break was all about. Another way for these players to do less, whilst demanding more. What a bunch of girls. Boo-hoo. Big house, fast car, trophy wife and wheelbarrows of cash being flung at them. Playing a game for a living. Must be so hard to take mentally. Good job they don't have to drag themselves out of bed every morning, face the cattle train commute and endure a shitty job just so they can pay the bills and end up with fuck all at the end of the month. The poor little darlings would all be banded up in the loony bin by now.

Let's scrap the winter break. And scrap penalty shoot-outs so they have to play MORE games and actually earn their cash. It's not as if half of them can play anyway. Can't pass, can't cross, can't tackle, can't shoot, can't stay on their feet for five seconds and think nothing of cheating at every opportunity. And some of them get paid more in a week than Best and Charlton earned in their careers.

Poor loves. Please, tell us, apart from the ludicrous ticket prices, the £100 kits, the multiple, expensive subscriptions to watch on TV - what else can the fans do for you? Maybe we could sing them to sleep at night to ease their troubled minds?

[Mac76]

Just had a thought - if replays are scrapped maybe they could keep the underdog thing alive by saying that for cup ties, the team that's placed higher always has to play at the ground of the lower-placed team.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lower teams would say fuck that though as they don't get the benefit of gate receipts from the bigger stadiums.

I am not in any way going to pretend that is a romantic notion but it is what the lower league clubs see as vital for them.

I think the clubs need to stop whining about replays. It's far better now than it used to be. That tie with Liverpool. :haha:

Also, there are no replays from the quarter final onwards now anyway.
