    Liverpool player tangling with Struijk, nothing given then when stretchered off, Red to Struijk due to nature of the injury, no bones broken though, ref is not a medical expert, why are other players never sent off if someone needs to be substituted after a heavy tackle

    VAR !!!! It’s a load of bollocks, takes on average 2-4 mins to make a decision in there cosy little room, total bullshit, and some of them decisions are suspect.
    Mike Dean on Sky is a fkg joke, infact Sky is a joke, Lee Hendrie talks utter rubbish, if his tactics are so good then why ain’t he a coach, because he is a knob.

    Most of us were saying pre season he is the weak link and needs replacing, he's a poor keeper, yet there seems no desire to replace him from the powers that be. We know all keepers make mistakes but his are constant

    The keeper we need will not be available till summer but only if we’re in pl. caoimhin Kelleher wants away from Liverpool but he wouldn’t drop a division and we can’t afford him. As good as he is though he had a couple of clangers in recent games

    All I want to say on the matter of the 2nd yellow if that was the other way around the ref would of swallowed his whistle in blowing and sending him off. I just don't know what goes through the heads sometimes. Then he has the cheek of booking our manager for going over the top. decisions like that it make you boil over because they are so shyte at their job. The Ref bottled alot of things yesterday that awful cnut who got Mes sent off last season and bit a Blackburn player this season was always leaving a foot in on Rodon they say ride the attention don't let it get to you but sometimes it narks the fook out of you both were studs up on the Achilles dirty barstewart, That's 2 reds card in 2 games we have fallen foul too it really does make you wonder sometimes it really does.

    Ive just found a passion of hate for Blackburn and Preston because neither can play football and are just dirty cheating time wasting fooks. Am still fuming after yesterday I really am. I just want to blame everyone and everything it was a fookin awful game against a awful side and awful officials. everything was just fookin awful from start to finish.

    It’s a bit unclear what you thought of the refereeing <ok>

    Fair comment but I still think my point stands. If as a defence you restrict the opposition to just one shot on target (on the basis that you can’t do that every game) its not unreasonable to expect your keeper to save one.

    My take (the only view that counts obviously).. we gave the ball away on the edge of their box, it happens. Struijk gets done… either too tight… or not tight enough to his man. Bogle has to get back faster and get between the scorer and the cross. Meslier should save it.

    From their point of view it was a great goal. Frustrating that we seem to need 10 crosses like that before we get a good one. They had 2 attacks, scored 1 and the striker shoulders an easy header for a second.

    Frustrating as hell that these away games follow a seemingly identical pattern. Opponents need 1 chance to score and take it

    Burnley losing at half time. Norwich the better side and deservedly lead.

    Burnley will probably win 2-1 and that's how you get promoted. Sheff Utd were given a run around by Plymouth yesterday but ended up winning 2-0.

    Like Sheffield Utd, we need to find a way to win matches however good or bad we play.

    I think you get promoted by having more points than 22 other teams which leeds currently have. Leeds were 2 1 down at Swansea at half time and won 4 3

    1-2 with 5 mins left…. looking like a fairly accurate prediction at the moment .

    Burnley, blunts, Blackburn consistently winning games where they’ve not been the better side. Think Burnley have upped it this half to be fair, but some of the others have been getting real runs of good luck.
