No, no, no Ruffers! You've got it all wrong we just LAUGH at City.


Anna, Merde not demeaning but 'bin dippers' is? Seems like double standards to me...


Oh and before you all jump on Ronaldo for diving (not an uncommon occurence and I'm not defending it also see Torres, Drogba et al) I was following the games on the BBC text service and they were saying that noone from United appealed for a penalty, not even Ronaldo.

Sandperson, I remember being at a derby match at Anfield some years back, and there were 2 Everton fans in the kop sticking out like a sore thumb. Everton won 1-0, and they stood and cheered the goal, and I remember being really suprised how friendly the banter was. You wouldn't get that at a Glasgow derby! ;-)

The Merseyside derby is one that's often talked about. Some people say it's dead friendly and others will tell you it's the most hostile derby played.


The thing is, up there is half the family can be blue and the other half red, which is why I guess you'll see a red shirt amongst a sea of blue and not witness too many problems. That said - I wouldn't do it.

Not as much as we laugh at ourselves I suspect. While I was reassured by the loss at Brighton that we weren't going to become some kind of clinical professional organisation with our new found wealth I smiled less at the Wigan score.


For anyone who did see the game, or will see it on MOTD2, this quote from bbc text commentary re the penalty is brilliant


1646: "And people said building the JJB on an ancient trampoline burial ground wouldn't have any consequences."

Very happy with that result. 6 from 6 and Robbie off the mark.


WTF is that goal celebration all about? He reallys needs to bin that one off.


"Robbie Keane, Robbie Keane, Robbie Keane, Robbie Keane. His name's not f***** Keano!! Robbie Keane".

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
