I try not to, but sometimes if you've gotta go you've gotta go.

I find it funny that people are all big on a possible dictatorship but they didn't say a word about windrush, the deportation and violation of basic human rights regarding refugees, the drone bombing of various innocent peoples,colonialism... Etc... 

 

 

This government is vile. And don't get me started about the fact they were actually cracking down on the right to protest. With that being said, everyone should get vaccinated or expect not to do the same as always. Especially as a footballer. When it affects other people you're part of the problem. I know plenty of people in the developing world who'd kill for a vaccine. Western entitlement if you ask me. And I'm not denying the UK government is authoritarian (and it has always been especially regarding foreign policy) but a vaccine is the least of your worries.

Well said - sadly in the wrong thread, in case this gets removed.

Agreed.

 

Need to get back on track in here, Liverpool v Burnley up first today. Can't see anything but a big Liverpool win.

[Number 6]

Just can't see Burnley causing them any problems. Comfortable win for Liverpool, will probably start some resting on 60 mins to prep for Chelsea next week.

[Corky]

Made the mistake of putting BT on. McManaman is back and clearly crowds aren't back until Anfield is full again.

[Md9]

Seen a few things where he wants out from Spurs ( not surprising 😂) don’t think they will get back what they paid for him

0-4 Wood 4 ( all off his face)

[Guest ttfn]

Big fan of Burnley lining up with players 1-11 today. 
 

That can’t have happened in a Premier League game for years.

Levy supposedly wants £60m for him. Not a prayer now he's said he wants out

Ugh, Fletch, Macca and the spaffing over Anfield.

Prepare for Mike Dean, Drama Queen.

All Dyche needs to do now is put Cork and Taylor at centre back and McNeill as striker, then football will be complete.

Nope. 4 & 5 are CBs. 

9 and 10 are strikers. 7 & 11 wingers. 

6 & 8 midfielders.

I'm listening on 5live. Much better coverage/updates, even if I don't get to watch it.

I’m definitely not one to push a vaccine agenda but please don’t assume everything you see on Facebook/Twitter/YouTube is fact
1. https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-pfizer-ceovaccine-idUSL1N2PD1UX
2. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/05/30/fact-check-fauci-didnt-say-cdc-fda-staff-refusing-covid-19-vaccine/7474372002/

I didn’t say they were refusing, but it is not mandatory and over 50% of them have not taken the vaccine. 
 

And is this the same Fauci who lied at a congressional hearing about his department actually financing gain of function experiments on Corona virus’s at the Wuhan lab?

 

Mind you, I suppose it was just bats because fact checking sites said it was. 
 

Open your eyes - all sides lie and twist. 
 

Again I say it is down to individual freedom to choose and anyone refusing should not be castigated. 

[StanSP]

Interesting to watch the ref & rest of the game now in regards to time-wasting.

 

Mike Dean's already had a word with Mee about Pope's time-wasting because he chose to take a drink instead of the goal-kick. That in itself is fair. 

 

But let's see how consistent he is about should Liverpool perhaps go 1 up and Alisson decides to do the same.

I’m not pro or anti, but point taken.

No can’t see them getting much for him at all now. Always seems to have an issue that keeps him out a lot of games.

@Vacamion re: McManaman

whenever a contentious Liverpool challenge happens 'nahhhhhhhhh, nothing wrong with it' in the most Scouse way possible.

According to 5live both managers are already in the 4th officials ear complaining about decisions made or not made!

 

Could be a long day for the poor chap.

If it means it could be a way for them to beat Liverpool then yes
