It's not good, but then if you look at the litany of high profile footy players who get a soft ride with the judiciary he just another in the long list.
 
I think it's disgusting, not just because it's us, I would think the same for any game or opposition, I'm confident at the time things were strung out massively when punchy went on the rampage in Southport!

The common man doesn't get these squeezes so why should professional people get them, double standards as usual and says more about the courts and legal system in Liverpool putting things like a footy match ahead of what simply should be just the law and nothing should change that date, I can't see why he couldn't have attended court in the day and played at night, what's the big deal, it's not like he's getting sent down, especially in a Liverpool court, standard loss of licence and a fine, crack on....he can afford a few taxi's or even employ a driver for a while, there's plenty unemployed up there that'll apply!

Do you really think he'd be sent down anywhere else?
ots a local case so heard in a local court.

Just for a little clairty.

not the first and won't be the last to use good lawyers to get preferential treatment.

It's pathetic tho isn't it?
The courts should say this is the date & time & that's it.
And having the date changed because you're playing football that evening is just ridiculous.

Not sure what you are implying ?

Are you suggesting that the court will go easy on him because he is a Liverpool player ? - in the same way Ferguson got left of his court issue

And didn't Chelsea ask for a delay in Terrys court case ? I'm guessing that was disgusting also ?

I know of at least one person in my golf club that managed to get a court case date changed due to a work issue.

A good lawyer can find a way around anything these days.

It's wrong on all accounts

I agree it's a joke. Unfortunately it's the law system and anyone could get it changed for work if they had the right lawyer.

Yes It's disgusting, period, even if Terry's lawyers asked for one. If there's special circumstances to ask for a delay then that's depends on the circumstances of the crime and the said special circumstances, but for a millionaire footy player of any team, no way, imo.

And yes I think a Liverpool player can get a squeeze, punchy confirmed that to me by seeing him throwing punches at someone sat on a stool, which if I did that I would have seen some time away.

As has been said, clever expensive lawyers can work their magic for the rich & famous, and especially in a city that lives and breathes for its football team, and their current players, to think that any special dispensation isn't afforded them I think is being a bit naive personally.
 
Would you rather Klopp made maybe 3 or 4 changes and put some of these youngsters into a team that contained some experienced players for them to learn from rather than lumping them all in together? I imagine they would learn a lot more from playing alongside Coutinho, Henderson etc rather than others their own age.
yes agree with this to many changes .
young players need someone to look to on the pitch.
no leader on the pitch Saturday.
 
Looking forward to Liverpool v Chelsea this evening. I hope I that I can find a place to watch it in Brno. Or very quickly figure out how to get Sky Go on the laptop with the correct VPN and pray that I have good internet in the hotel. What could go wrong?

2-1 to the reds.

It's on BT sport 😣

Ah bugger I do have BT sports but they don't show that on SkyGo. I still have an old slingbox somewhere, I could have a go at that else last resort find a stream online.

I need Liverpool to build up a lead early doors before they run out of puff. They can be explosive in the first 20-30 mins lets hope so tonight with all their big guns back.

Nothing personal you understand.:thup:
 
I think we'll see a different Liverpool to that who's only won 1 in 7 games, or is it 8 🤔

Actually if you do see a remarkably different Liverpool because it's Chelsea visiting and the nature of the result, I'd be a bit miffed as a fan wondering where that performance had been for the last 2 months!

They'll come at us quick & fast, they'll chase everything down like headless chickens, we'll absorb this for around 20- 30 minutes when they will start to get frustrated and flag and then we'll strike back on a few counters clinically finishing any attempts on goal 👍

Once we get that first goal they'll have to come at us them leaving their dodgy defence open for us to exploit 😜

0-2 Super Blues
