I can bet you that your “grapevine” maybe not the internet but the information you were being passed was started on the internet

The photoshop was done by an Everton account with the signs , the what apps about the fights and Klopp quitting were started by people on social media spreading it then it moves across all formats including between mates with texts and whats apps and phone calls and just snowballs from there.

And in the end it comes from different sources people then start to think it’s truth - it’s a perfect example of the power of social media
You might be right , but you might be wrong.
We will have to wait and see.
 
Least we finally got that first pen of the season

Lingard looks so sharp

You said your grapevine said he had quit

He held a press conference today and laughed it all off - what do we have to wait and see about
 
Our first pen of season taken away by var for offside

Didn't think you could be offside once the keeper saved it and then your taken out? But really he shouldn't have been offside to start with. Shame

They're making it up as they go, even the operators don't know what they're doing. I was all for VAR but its gone wrong, so unbelievably wrong for something that should be so simple, that its put me off football, the premier league at least.
If things don't change and improve next season I can seriously see me losing interest completely and just carry on supporting my local non league side

Yes agree the handball one in the wolves game was a shocker.

Chelsea forward is attacking and gets a (gentle) push from the Chelsea defender in the area and falls over. Ref doesn't give a foul. Newcastle are attacking and Carroll gives a gentle push on the Chelsea defender in the area who falls over. Ref gives a Chelsea free kick. Why does it seem that the rules are different depending on whether it's the attacking or defending team?

You might need to proof read that.
If you push your own player it’s not a foul.

Good point. Have edited it above rather than in the original post so that your post still makes sense. The edited version is what I should have typed.

In my defense ...........Brandy + diet coke!!!! (y)
 
Just had a look at teams fixtures down to Villa. I honestly do not have a clue who is going to finish in the champs league places. All teams have tough schedules where fixtures And results will be tough to call. Think there is going to be a few squeaky bum months ahead. ?
