bobbruce Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Wow just wow. Amazing result and the best Liverpool performance I’ve ever seen. Made up for Trent AA he’s been found out a few times in Europe this year but was absolutely magnificent tonight in attack and defense. As they all were to be fair. Just texted the brother in law who’s a season ticket holder to ask him if that was the best night ever at Anfield. 3-0 down against Barca no Salah or Firminio he gave his ticket to his lad. Doh. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His job is to score goals , but it includes lots of cheating and unsavoury behaviour then on top of being good at football, and has through his career. ‘ it’s all part of the game ‘ is why cheating has become so ingrained and accepted . He’s a good player but a very tarnished player through his own acts He didn’t quite do all of his job tonight, did he?

A few pages back I mentioned that Hastings went out in their play off semi final. I also said that some teams wouldn’t even know whether they could go up but had play offs anyway. Turns out, now that the play offs at this level have finished that three out of the four teams in Hastings division could not go up. Thankfully for everyone’s sanity, the one that could did win the play off. But that was only confirmed after the play off final. 1 1 Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.

gingerjon Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Whoever's running the England women's social media needs a pay rise. Today, the Lionesses' squad announcements have been made one at a time by one big name after another. Starting with Prince William announcing Steph Houghton as Captain. And then when all 23 were named, we got this: God, I love a sports montage. Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

17 stone giant Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I'm looking forward to watching England Women at the World Cup. I watched quite a lot in 2015 and was gutted when we lost to Japan in the semi-final. I think they play really good football. Hopefully we can go one step further this time.
