    How do I come across intolerant? if they’re allowed to air their views then surely I’m allowed to air mine?

    Tbh I’m not quite sure why you’ve involved yourself in this anyway. Yet again, a minor thing gets blown up.

    He didn't get sent off because he plays for Liverpool and it was at Anfield.
    If it was Forest or Brentford, then he'd be banned at the moment.

    There is actual evidence that wearing red influences decisions, though:
    https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/08/080808114930.htm
    People have done studies on it repeatedly and it does seem to have an effect, for some reason.
    The human mind is a very strange thing.

    Banning every team that wears red is the most reasonable solution, in my opinion.

    It's almost as if the badge has more to do with it

    That's why nobody ever suggests Coventry get the rub of the sky blue

    The goals went to other leagues, with Dortmund caning Wolfsburg 6-0 and Lyon beating Montpelier 5-4 yesterday...where Montpelier were 4-1 up after 55 minutes

    The fact that three of the usual suspects
    have red as their shirt primary colour, is just
    coincidence.

    Jota was not sent off because it was the
    Poool at home, who were beginning to
    wobble against the opposition at 11 vs 11.

    Usual suspects? What do you mean by that?

    Definitely a red but I disagree he wasnt sent off purely because of the team he plays for and where the match was.

    That's fine. The ref and VAR officials being **** would explain it, too.
    Dropping the ref because Klopp was mad is less explainable, though.

    It has unexpectedly become a possibility due to Brighton losing to two relegation candidates. And they have a simply horrendous run-in.

    Probably depends on the game at the weekend against Ebening FC. PGMOL simply will not allow a Villa win at Anfield the week after, so if we can win there I think we'll finish above them, albeit perhaps only on GD. Even a draw won't be a terrible result.

    I think Southampton’s problem is having too many players with double-barrelled names.
    Four and another on the bench is just excessive.

    They also have two Armstrongs, so the commentators probably conspired to send them down.
    Which is entirely fair, frankly.

    You have to go for the win id you are a relegation candidate.
    Obviously that leaves you open to conceding some too.

    Surely that suggests the exact opposite?
