Can we lock this thread? Just having the front page load and seeing his name is triggering af. I can’t be the only one who’s mental health would benefit by pretending this dude doesn’t exist whenever possible

That’s the beauty of it

We are 0-9 in one goal games this season. Has any team in the history of league football in Europe ever not won a single game by 1 goal over the course of a season? It's not like we're playing rugby or basketball. That is one of the most astonishing stats I've ever heard.

Not saying he's wrong, but Tim Howard is an absolutely awful pundit

Actually - I'd be happy to. Both saves were as routine as you can get for even a below average keeper. The Fofana header is right at him. He puts in a good flop but if he doesn't save that it may be the most shocking goal of the day. The one off the ground - it bounces exactly to the perfect height for his already diving hand - it's fortunate more than anything, a little higher or lower and he just swipes it into the back of the net - it's again the perfect height for him in that situation. The saves were routine even if his flailing and flopping deceived you. The goals were HORRENDOUS.

To be fair - Perez' actually was an easier chance somehow

The "the club deserve and need relegation" crowd... I don't think you understand how ****ed we are (financially) if that happens. It's not like a "we need a reset" type of thing - that's such a ridiculously naive position to have. It's not like you even have to read between the lines to know this. You just have to read the actual lines.

So many thoughts - you'll have to humor me on this as I need to vent - We get at least a point out of that game with Kaspar in goal, and I'd venture to say all 3. It's not just - he would have saved that one goal so it's 2-1 instead of 3-1. Football is not linear. A game staying 1-1 instead of going down 2-1 is worth more than just that goal off the board. It's momentum and all the intangibles and tangibles about how the game flows etc. Ward is just - I mean. Don't really know what to say. That first goal going in - it's so killer to the whole psychology of it. You're at home in a big game against a rich 6 side - you're in the game, doing well, and you let that goal in. It's SO deflating to the team, energy, crowd, etc to concede first in that fashion. It's worth more than just the goal on the scoreboard - Unpopular opinion maybe - but Rodgers Out aside, we created the chances necessary to get results from our last couple games, and have been incredibly wasteful. Amartey + KDH today. Then you add in the unlucky (KDH post, Souttar chance) and the awful reffing - which is not for nothing a pretty consistent theme this year with the lack of handball. Ricardo maybe could have been sent off, so could their guy on Maddison. How was that not a foul? Every game I go into knowing we'll get the short end of the stick - it's really not overboard to say that those constant and little biases that permeate through the game are worth 1-1.5 goals per game. - We can't score, can't defend, can't goalkeep - we're going down. We could sack Rodgers in 5 minutes, I still think it's too late and we're going down. ALL the other teams with us have more fight than us. Everton will get a result against Chelsea next weekend for instance. Which leads me to - I hope everybody is at least using this as an opportunity to make some $. I can't be the only one putting a 9 way box on all the results to go against us. I'm 3 of 5 so far on wins and 4 of 5 on win or draw. Already making some money and if a couple more results don't go our way I'll be rolling in coin (I'm betting .09 per iteration btw - no high roller - still could win hundreds or thousands this week). Like Leicester City Football club, I have run out of steam half way through this post. I'll mercifully end this here. If it's the hope that kills you, let's all thank Rodgers for sparing us.

wow - we are 0-3-11 in 1 goal games this season let me rephrase WE HAVE NOT WON A SINGLE GAME BY 1 GOAL THIS SEASON. We play football, not basketball or cricket or rugby that is absurd has a league team ever not won a single game by one goal throughout the course of the season?

FanDuel. I’m in US. Still 44/1 as of now Interestingly we went from 6.5/1 for relegation right after game Saturday to now 5/1. People are starting to catch on

44/1 to finish last on my platform. Yes please.

The linesman looked at him like did you really just do that? Then looked at the ref. Then did nothing. amazing

Bruno just shoved the linesman.

4-0 Drinkwater

We’re 44/1 to finish last on my end. Tasty.

I still think at this stage in the season 2 points awarded is better than 3. A draw keeps NF in the scrap - a win really gets them out of the thick of it. If this were with 5 or games left than yes for sure.

Curious - What about Rodgers being manager lessens that feeling?

If it’s the hope that kills you, we should all be thanking BR for saving our lives

The narrative will be nacho let BR down (to be fair - some truth to that)

Against MAYBE the only keeper in the league as bad as ours

Twice

Can somebody please explain what Ward was doing there?

did anybody see Soumare walking on the pitch looking like he just got sent to bed without dessert? haha can't wait to see how many sprints he has today.

That was really close. Almost looked exactly level.
