Richarlison scoring the equaliser . That has to hurt more. Could this be the game that changes the season for spurs?

............................ and Liverpool?

 

[Pin-seeker]

So did Liverpool go “all spursy”?
Or at this stage is it “doing a Liverpool”?

 

[Slime]

Here's a though, if Brentford neat Wolves tomorrow, are they in the conversation regarding Champion's League qualification?
It'll put them just one point behind Chelsea.

Liam Rosenior.

Who said Carrick. I thought they was on about Barton.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

............................ and Liverpool?

Liverpool have been sketchy for some time. I'm not sure even Liverpool fans feel confident about winning games. Saying that, no one seems keen to finish 4th or 5th this year.

It was Barton mate, Billy is winding you up!

............................ and Liverpool?

It should Slot is clueless.

Gakpo has been as bad as Salah.

Spurs deserved their draw. Imo they tried to the end.
Allison had more to do than Spurs keeper ,we could just see it coming as we made a mess of so many good chances.
The final ball is just abysmal.

Leaving Macallister on for so long was criminal his legs had gone.


It’s all over Liverpool that Alonso has signed next season ( he might get a game )
I hope that’s true!

 

[Fade and Die]

I must say, Liverpool looked shocking, especially in defence.
They had one job and couldn't get a home win against Spurs, a team who haven't won this year!
One job.

Well they have taught me something today… See I thought I couldn’t “dislike” them more. Turns out I was wrong

Can only apologise. Half smashed ruining Mother’s Day for missis Tash.

You should report him to the mods, not fair taking advantage of you half cut.

 

[Pin-seeker]

So how much more time does Wirtz need to get upto speed with the Prem?

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Only we can give Spurs hope - another poor performance

 

[Red devil]

It'll be quiet in work tomorrow. When I get in

Had a mint Mother’s Day
Gutted that don’t have one every month.

You should organise one every month for your mam and missus.

Another week another inconsistent VAR decision.

Dan N’Doye’s heel offside by a hair: goal not given.

Same happens with Liverpool vs Fulham and because of the 5cm tolerance that’s applied so it’s given as such it’s cost us vital 2 points

All we want is consistency or actually just intervening when it’s a clear and obvious error. If it takes longer than 10-20seconds for VAR to figure it out, go with the on field decision. The joy of football has been completely sapped from it.

Oh well a point is a point I suppose. Next week against Spurs is absolutely massive

That just proves that 5cm rule was a load of B*******

I find it odd to have a tolerance of any sort.
If they are that accurate they can tell if it’s 5cm or 5.1cm then why not have it without the tolerance.

Having said that who knows what would have happened if the goal had stood.

Fulham might of chucked on 3 forwards and win 2-1 or get hit on the break and Forest win 5-0.

Since football begun it’s always the officials fault whenever a team gets a result they don’t like. (Every team not just Forest).

VAR was meant to change that but it’s just the same now with a 5 minute delay

You’re right but we could have also ground out and ugly 1-0 win to get 3 points we are absolutely desperate for. As such situations like this (and others across the league) are being hinged on someone making the right decision after a ridiculously long delay.

The joy of celebrating a last minute winner or equaliser has been all but lost with VAR. That’s the main issue. We shouldn’t have to be waiting 5 minutes whilst some bloke in a booth attempts to draw straight lines to determine whether a player’s toe nail is offside. It’s bonkers. It’s either clear or it’s not. If it’s clear and the ref/lino had got it wrong, over turn the on field call by all means. If I can go for a poo and make a brew in the time it takes for it to be examined, it should stay with the referee’s decision because it’s not 100% clear
