1. It’s a football team - it’s not “England” , stop even attempting to attach patriotism with a football

2. Stu said I like to watch them fail as opposed to being desperately wanting them to fail , I suspect he doesn’t give a monkeys what happens but enjoys it when they fail

3. People in many towns grew supporting their club , and have watched their country team treat their players like crap , heard supposed England fans insult their players when playing for England , seen their players constantly get injured because sub stand managers are unable to treat the players right.

Some people need to understand that just because someone is English and a football fan doesn’t mean they automatically must support the national team . There are thousands of football fans around the country that will always be club first and foremost and that won’t change no matter how many teddies get thrown by people.

There is nothing more sanctimonious or pathetic than someone even hinting they aren’t “patriotic” because they don’t support the England football team when they are English.

1. I was referring to England as in the football team, as well you know.

2. He obviously does give a monkey's.

3. Really?

I've never suggested that they must automatically support the national team, I just asked for an explanation as to why and totally accept that thousands put their club first.
I'm not sure what teddies have to do with it, though, and don't know who's throwing them so why bring them into it?

I think it's best that we just agree to differ on this.
I just asked for an explanation and you've provided one, for which I thank you.
 
fun start to the Merseyside derby

Pickford a little fortunate, not sure why VAR dont look at it as a dangerous challenge even though the offsides given

5.8 for Mane, 5.7 for Rodriguez for the Dorset judge so far lol
 
Pickford lucky. outside the box you see a free kick given and then another player get booked for "leaving one on him" time and time again.

Virgil offside shouldn't have anything to do with a terrible challenge, but the offside obviously negates the pen shout.

Redmen need to tighten up. Move the ball better and work Pickford more. He's an absolute liability. Everton just need to carry on doing what they're doing.

It's not going to be a dull second half!
 
Can someone please explain how

1. Pickford stays on the pitch

2. How is that offside ?!

Unfortunately in the VAR opinion he isn’t though.

I only watched the second half, just seen the Pickford/VVD incident, that is shocking challenge, so lucky not to be a snapped leg.

But how is he off? The still they showed, the part of his body used to adjudge him as offside is a part of his body he can't score with.

VAR had 2 things to do today and got them both wrong.

Devils advocate because it looked on to me, but hasn't it been drawn from the "t shirt line"?
