    Did, in my case. I would wail on about how people have no idea now since cutbacks and so forth how bad things are behind the scenes, but I have three family members in the NHS, my daughter on the frontline of mental health (real ones, not just neurotics like me).

    And apart from those poor ****ers - took the dog to the vet's today as he's old and had been constipated. She got some syringe out and did an anal gland evacuation, which resulted in two trays of black tar and a toxic cloud three times as fatal as Chornobyl. She studied for seven years to do that, apparently (and charges more than the NHS, I must add).

    Nah, the way things are, looking at it now, I had an easy life. I pity the poor ****ers of my daughter's generation, I do. But they can can get back to work paying us Baby Boomers' final salary pension, the peasants. :emoticon-0103-cool:

    He's right though. One of my earliest judo lessons (apart from falling over, which I've used more than anything, I can tell you): if somebody is choking you front-on, don't waste your breath struggling - simply place your forefinger on their breastbone and push them away. It works, by Jingo, :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Holgate went over and was asking the ref what he was going to do on Mane. For Richie, players wanted the ball out, but rules state Liverpool were well within rules to not.

    Ah, Mane was using his early judo lessons to move Holgate away. But missed and was lucky to stop before he got his eyes.
    Well done Mane.

    So Holgate (or insert any players name) run halfway across the pitch to get involved and gets a push / poke in the face. Am I the only one who sees the irony of this ?!

    “It was a penalty, you don't get them at Anfield," he said.

    "If that was Mohamed Salah at the Kop end, I think [the referee] gives that. It was a foul on Anthony."

    true

    I remember the debut of Torres against Chelsea at Anfield. 1-0 and cruising, one of their players (Malouda? forgotten). simply threw himself into one of our defenders in the Kop end, and the Roman-hired referee gave an absurd pen that Fat Frank gleefully scored (like 90% of his goal tally) and celebrated like they'd won the CL.

    He's got a point: if Everton go down it'll be 100% because of Heysel. That's why they pissed half a billion up the wall buying Tosun and Iwobi too.
