And, we're off.....2016/17

[Tashyboy]

Apparently the only way to avoid it is don't buy a ticket Tashy

I accept changes to ko times etc because going the match has been a massive part of my life but it still annoys the hell out of me when its blatantly obvious those in charge of decision making haven't took into consideration of travelling arrangements for fans.

Something swingalot am sure will agree with.

Yep it drives me nuts. Change in kick off times/dates along with the various price swings and availability of train travel in this country make planning a few lads trips away to watch a game far more challenging than it should be. Yes I booked the train up to Manchester early and ran the risk of this happening, but if the game had not changed I would have been £70 better off, so maybe worth the risk or not as it proved on this occasion!

Anyway, I must be mad going up to City as I reckon I have followed Palace up there about a dozen times and only seen us win once. :angry: I like the trip though, some decent boozers and normally a good laugh despite the result. :thup: At least with the ealry kick off we'll be back in London even earlier than normal. :cheers:

With the pace in your team v our defence. If you can nick a goal and keep it tight it could be another draw to add to the six we have had at home. 😖

I'm an armchair fan so it doesn't affect me.
But it's obvious that they don't give a toss about the match going supporters anymore.
But football is a business now and they'll do whatever brings in the most money.

Oddly, sky do like the away fans to turn up at the Emirates as they provide the atmosphere.

Fixed that for you

Good first half - Everton lucky to not be down to 9 , ref not having a great game. Great finishes from Mane and Coutinho

 

[sawtooth]

Looked more like a knee rather than a ankle injury there for Mane. Either way not good for Liverpool.

 

[Deleted member 15344]

Challenges from Everton today have been shocking - how they still have 11 on the pitch is because the ref has bottled it. Can looks in trouble as well

 

[sawtooth]

As a neutral, Can was lucky there with just a yellow card. Horrendous challenge.

Half pulled out so made no contact - yellow for the intent , if he hadn't pulled out and made contact then it would have been a red

 

[Deleted member 15344]

:whoo:

That will do nicely

Only negative is the injury to Mane

Nice gap building to team in 5th

Yeah that tends to happen when you've played 3 more games than the team in 5th 🙄

Points win prizes not games in hand.

Correct,just pointing out that it's a false gap.
Arsenal & Utd will be closer when played games in hand.

 

[Fish]

True, and I'd rather have the points than the 2/3 games in hand which could see them drop 3 places 😜

I see it didn't take long for Koeman to turn into "Dignity Dave".

It's always nice to beat that lot, I fear for the everton wives tonight.

 

[Bunkermagnet]

And we loaned out Sahko because?
I just hope both sides can sort the mess and have him back in the fold next season.

 

[Deleted member 15344]

Maybe it's not all over after all :rofl:

 

[anotherdouble]

Very very blue afternoon. Just a blip. We will be back

 

[Pin-seeker]

Maybe it's Liverpools year after all 😂😂

Or is that next season?? 🤔
