That bollocks Narnia. Robbie Keane's scored 45 goals for the Republic. You've got to miss some to score some and that's a great goalscoring record he's got there. He's also your record goalscorer. Who else has regularly scored at his rate over the years for Ireland? No one has come remotely close. I reckon you're still pissed off for his penalty miss the other night. Get over it.

He's not as sharp as he was but he's still a top class player. There is plenty of competition up front at Spurs so it's hard for him to get a look-in. I think it is entirely possible he could be on the move in January. I think his time is up at Spurs.

You're right about Rooney. Vastly over-rated. A very good player against the Wigans and Boltons of this world but doesn't cut the mustard at the highest level. His current form is very poor. Good job Berbatov is doing the business for you.

Annasfield, cutting and pasting from the "Rafa is the greatest" website is hardly a rational argument and kind of proves my point.


You say I don't know anything about Liverpool because I can't be bothered to find out, fair enough. How come you and a huge amount of Liverpool fans seem to know so much about the internal workings of your club? I've been a West Ham fan for 25 years, bought season tickets, know a few ex players, my daughter has been a mascot. I have no idea about their finances, I'm interested to find out how Liverpool fans get such transparency?


I'm delighted the sale has gone through by the way, Forza Liverpool, hopefully it'll bring a modicum of reality.

We know so much because we care and bother to dispell the lies that are created by the media. It's not difficult to source that sort of information if you look in to it.


It's quite tiring when you meet someone and get chatting about football and someone who clearly likes and knows quite a lot about football tells you "Rafa had to go, his transfer record was shit!". Well actually it wasn't.


I quite like West Ham. A proper football club and always one of my favourite aways. I think LFC and West Ham have a similar type of fanbase. It's a shame really, as the tenure of Gillett and Hicks has turned those who really care about LFC attention away from the pitch. I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to going to Goodison on Sunday and not having to go to a protest beforehand. Hopefully we can get back to football.

Where hopefully Everton will win :)


The real problem Liverpool has is living up to it's glory days. Every manager that comes in is expected to bring LFC back to that, and that's a big ask, especially given how much the game and club management has changed. Liverpool have had some good runs over recent years in the champions league, but the truth of the modern premiership is that money has taken over substance and I think Liverpool have become a victim of that. Big finance does not equate to silverware as Chelsea have found out in their pursuit of the Champions League trophy. Ultimately good managers who make the right choices are who make the difference. I think Benitez was limited in what he could achieve with Liverpool.

To be fair to the Killer she did say in pursuit of the Champions League though they did lose on a penalty kick (Arf! John Terry) in a final. I too remember when they were shit but I also remember the great teams they had in the late 60s early 70s with Hudson, Osgood, Cooke, Hutchinson etc. I used to go and see them a bit then (70/71/72) and stand in The Shed when I was moonlighting from White Hart Lane and they were a bloody good side to watch.

As a response to DJKQ's post yesterday, I think you need a good manager AND a shed load of moey for real sucess these days. One or the other will not do it.


Pains me to say it, but Fergie is a great manager, but I suspect he wouldn't have done so well at a smaller club over the years. Equally, you can give all the money in the world to a guy, but if he doesn't spend it well, then get his team playing as a unit, it won't bring you any silverware.


Anyway, Everton 1-0 up at half time. Come on you reds!


Annoys me a bit how people in the press were expecting a totally different Liverpool today. Yes they will be pleased it's all sorted, but it's still the same team it was last week.

Oh well, can't say as I wasn't expecting the pool to lose today. I'm not too worried about the table, because a couple of wins can make a massive difference. BUT, they can't get any layers in until January, and Woy needs to get their chins up a lot sooner than that, or they really might be in trouble.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
