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".

    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end! 
    • Does anyone know what time tonight's events, the second night of the new phenomenon of Halloween Fireworks, end? These do sound too major to be anything but large- scale organised events and they are loud, very loud. So anyone, for their own reasons, that dislikes or objects to this level of noise for the next x amount of hours, really has no choice in the matter! Could those addicted to loud bangs possibly have a kind of silent disco setup with the bangs sent through headphones, so the rest of us could be spared?
