Jesus just lookin at the highlights, it coulda been 2 or 3 nil really if the finishing was better

Reid looks to have had a great game

curry-muff · 17-10-2009 09:10PM

Benitez accused Kenwyne Jones of diving despite being clearly injured and Bruce reacted angrily to it, or so ive heard

couple of match ban for aul Brucie hopefully

Ah come off it. Jones was injured and Benitez was making out he was time wasting. I reckon a ban for Benitez for unsportsmanlike behaviour!!!!!!!!!!!

Just watched the highlights there, Sunderland deserved their win , Liverpool were very poor again.

Mr Alan · 17-10-2009 09:13PM

reason for it is irrelevant tbh, its not on.

Handsome Bob · 17-10-2009 09:14PM

I just realised that kid was a Liverpool fan, poor bastard. I just saw the reaction on his face on the Premiership, very sad.

Mr Alan · 17-10-2009 09:14PM

As were Rafa's accusations. But you are right 2 wrongs don't make a right.

outside influence or something. should have been a drop ball.

Bruce spoke about it after the match & admitted it should have been, but its an obscure rule.

**** happens.

Was just chatting to someone who did a little bit of reff'ing years ago

Nothing obscure about the rule at all, its a standard every ref/linesman should know rule (both should have acted)

Stop game, get rid of obstruction!

forgot to ask him but Id imagine its like the two balls on the pitch rules

Considering same type of thing happened last year(or year before) in a Man City game you would think it should have been drummed into the officials?

Asked him why ref didnt know, he replied:
"Because football is f**ked":(

Rafa's best scouse impression ever…CALM DOWN CALM DOWN, with the arms out and everything… brilliant.

Damn shocking performance from Liverpool today they had no idea what they were doing, cant see Liverpool finishing in the top 4 this season if Gerrard or Torres get injured for a spell.

Stupid international games, there was no need for either of them to go as both Spain and England had already won their groups

In Gerrard's case at least there was the integrity of the group. They were playing the Ukraine who were battling for second.

Ya, saw that. A bit late when his face is all over youtube. The horse has bolted there.

All the chances Bent had today :eek:

If these are the highlights for Pool i'm glad I didn't waste my time watching it.

People will still know who the poor lad is, sad to see that a rush of blood to the head could possibly ruin his life, he may pray that pool win the league

"Liverpool deflated by Bent strike" is Soccernet's take on the match

Man, these headlines really do write themselves don't they?

IRISHSPORTSGUY · 17-10-2009 11:37PM

Told you lot Cana is immense.

Can't believe we beat Arsenal and Everton to signing him!

Only ones who used his image were RTE but like whelan said his mates will crucify him on monday (assuming he actually turns up)
I blame the ref. Officials are notoriously fussy and yet where we have an incident which most refs says should have led to a drop ball inside the penalty area, ref chose to let goal stand. bizarre.

There was no drop ball either when it happened City against Sheffield United.

Anyone see the analysis on RTE?

Highlighting the balloon.
"Ok and here we see the balloon making it's first appearance."
"And here's the balloon now rolling its way into an onside position"

Genius.
