Why let the the truth get in the way of a good story eh? :)

Well, having just seen it I take it back that challenge was nothing like the Carragher tackle. Lucas got a bnasty little kick in there just before as well. Also, in both incidents Liverpool players are doing all they can to goad United players. After the Carragher tackle Kuyt is screaming abuse at Nani on the floor (something Keane was vilified for) and Raphael has his hair pulled (girly I know but obviously meant to be a wind-up).


Still, onwards.

Strange. Arsenal fans have been saying things like this for years, remember when the Neville brothers kicked Reyes out of the FA cup semi a few years back.


Still, onwards and upwards eh?

Hate the type of challenges made by Carragher and Raphael, going in too fast and reckless and to support Emerson they are the type that Arsenal have suffered from. There is a huge difference between the type of fouls made by David Luiz the other night - old fashioned clattering - and racing in at full pelt with studs raised with far greater potential for serious injury.


Liverpool deserved winners by a long way, as against Chelsea surprised Fergie didn't stiffen the midfield, but Arsenal missed a huge opportumnity by failing to win.


Anyway Palace have Cardiff at home tomorrow and QPR away on Saturday, god help us.

The one good thing to come out of the Rafael and Carragher challenges is that the Liverpool players showed a togetherness and stood firm against the hystrionics of the United players. Too often in the past they'd have allowed likes of Scholes and Evra a free hand to harrang the Ref but not this time. The Reds also showed aggression in the aftermath, but directed at United, which in effect shielded the Ref from the kind of abuse we have sadly seen too often in the past. This bodes well for continued team spirit at Anfield under Kenny.

Not worried about Sheff Utd, think you are gone. I am, it saddens me to say, afraid of the mighty Scunthorpe.


By the way I know Sheff Utd have had too many managers to change again, but Micky Adams and Dave Bassett! Against Palace it was very old fashioned football should be great v Magson's Sheff Wed next year!


Sorry that sounds harsh, don't want to see a big club like Utd go down but just can't see you escpaing it now.

Hilarious as usual Matt. It's good to have you back.

Outrage from the Manc fans on here raises a wry smile from yours truly and put me in mind of the famous saying from Corporal Jones on Dads Army "they don't like it up 'em". To express outrage when their past and present players have been as guilty as any of commiting such challenges is more than a little rich.

But more importantly, how happy were you feeling after yesterday's game on a scale of 1-10 Anna?!

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
