Post match: Liverpool v Everton (EPL 24/4/22 4.30pm)

Now, because of the whineing from across the park…both teams have been have been warned for intimidating the ref and unruly behaviour, by the PL/FA…YEAH…YEAH…YEAH…there was only one set of thugs on that pitch, on Sunday…

The hug at the end of the game looked like a ‘thanks for everything’ hug to me. It was affectionate. Either that or there’s a raging mutual man-crush going on there.

Stole this from a Mail article for last season

I thought Attwell was lenient on Doucoure, when he showed him yellow for kicking Fab, while Richarlison lay on the floor, Doucoure lunged at Attwell’s face aggressively dissenting and appeared to go nose to nose with him.

Also, did anyone see this blatant kick by Allan on the back of Naby’s leg? I didn’t catch it yesterday but someone posted the still today:

The spawn of Vardy is now changing his tune to 'I can see why he didnt…you have been caught out u cheat…just get on with games and shut up…ya worm…

Yeah the way they all piled in they should have booked about 4 of them, why Pickford ran nearly 40 yards was beyond me.

Simulation is the terminology used in the Laws of the game for diving, however you are right you can receive a caution for feigning injury, but how can that be proved, as you cannot use VAR for cautionable offenses. I do wish refs would caution players for feigning injury as Richarlison would have been off

His ankle went a funny way it was Thiago and Jamie Carragher’s fault apparently :wink:

In regards to the 1st catch by Pickford, he was in possession of the ball for 20 seconds before releasing it, when the laws of the game clearly state to award an indirect freekick if the ball is in their hands/arms for longer than 6 seconds.

If Attwell had any balls he would have used that rule to stop some of the time wasting

I misread that as “if he has longer arms”

Maybe they should ask themselves why half the players booked for simulation this season play for them. That cunt Gordon has also got one of our players booked in both derbies by diving.
I find it absolutely mind-blowing how a lad who is barely 21 has already exposed himself as one of the biggest divers we’ve ever seen in this country.

It’s a pity as he has a decent turn of pace. If he concentrated on finding the target rather than tripping up on his own shadow he could do rather well.

Imagine Pickford in a fight? Would have to be close combat for him to get a dig in.

That’s the mad thing. He’s 21, should still be playing the game for the love of it, but his first instinct is to throw himself in a heap and try and con a penalty or a booking for someone.
Can you imagine a young Robbie Fowler having that mind-set? It’s fucking nuts.

He was ok with the play acting but what annoyed me was he ignored the time wasting to such an extent that he only added 2 min of extra time in the first half when 10 minutes would have been appropriate!

Mate, he plays for Everton.

That’s true. But I have to wonder where all this has come from. It’s been there all season and not just from Gordon. They’ve always had a team of snides and this one is full of them - Pickford, Holgate, Godfrey, the Brazilian prick - but the play-acting, diving and general shithousery has been off the scale this season, it’s like it’s being coached into them.

I blame Rafa, tbh…

Never thought I would see a premier league team behave like Athletico Madrid do but yesterday it happened at our own stadium, the pundits and media should be ashamed of themselves for not being honest and Fat Frank is a clown, fingers crossed they get relegated and stay away from the top flight for a decade.
