I'm sure Coote will be on VAR to human error his way to any non-Liverpool decision. Get ready for a Watford red on Saturday, probably Capoue. Oliver and Coote. Could be a sickly sweet country town based ITV detective drama set in the 60s. Oliver, still living with an awful policing decision early in his career is paired with Coote, a constant error maker and son of the local MP. Oliver, trying to coach the errors out of Coote finds himself in the public eye whilst trying to catch the criminals responsible for stealing fruit from the local market. Episode 1 - Oliver is tricked by a whily Frenchman into making a bad decision. Coote misses a murder taking place right in front of him.
Jon Moss is no doubt the bumbling overweight boss of Oliver and Coote. Always got a slice of cake on the go and chuckling away at the rising crime figures and breakouts of bubonic plague whilst appearing constantly out of breath.
I was offered a free ticket for this one, great seat, middle of SEJ. No ear plugs provided so not taking up the offer.
Imagine, in years to come, showing your grandchildren the shirt you exchanged after the historic record-breaking Liverpool achievement in that game back in February 2020 ... it's a real opportunity for some memorabilia ... might be more valuable than a FA Cup Final loser's medal and a Man City shirt ...
How has no one yet mentioned the incredibly, laughably embarrassing and pathetic 'Scouse not English' sentiment that a certain amount of their fans and general dock-dwellers shart out?! Add to that the incredibly smug insistence that they are somehow more liberal and enlightened a city historically, conveniently forgetting that, for example, they lobbied the British government to recognise the Confederacy during the American Civil War, because they didn't want to lose all that sweet, slave-produced trade money that flowed into their coffers each day from the docks.
My favourite story about her was the one about Denham Golf Club. She bought a pad backing onto it and she became a major PITA complaining about noise and balls hit over her fence. One of the unofficial course rules then became that any shot that landed on her property was classed as a 'Mulligan' and there were rumours that good first drives drives off the tee were classed a a Gilligan (you had to take it again). The complaints and legal threats went on for years so finally to try and do something about it Cilla and Husband applied to join the club - they were promptly told to "Foxtrot Oscar". She regularly popped up as the most unpleasant 'celeb' cabin crew ever had to deal with.
TBF to the Scousers it was always was a Tory stronghold due to it's reliance on free-trade. Right up to the point that the bodies started coming back (or more correctly the empty coffins as there were no remains found) in WWI.
Now there's a couple of words I haven't heard in a long, long time (Grandad was BR from demob till retirement).
Not the view from my student digs balcony as my flat faced the other way (looking out towards the Mersey and Wirral peninsular) and when I was there that area of Kirkdale was a massive bomb-site.
1: To be fair other parts of the country (looking at you Yorkshire) have a similar attitude as well. 2 The MP for Liverpool in the early 19th Century constantly voted against the abolition of the slave trade because of the vested interests Liverpool had in it. He also happened to be the officer Jason Isaacs character in that awful film "The Patriot" was based on. (Sir Banastre Tarleton)
He will make a right Moss of it! Has he got 2 games like that Coote guy did last week who made so many bad mistakes?
Those of a certain age will know that 50 years ago this week WFC defeated Liverpool at the Vic in the FA Cup - a massive upset in a time when the Cup meant something and we were a struggling Div II side. Feast your eyes on this and pray that the spirit of Barry Endean can be rekindled on Saturday........
Isn't he a Tranmere Rovers fan, just a ferry ride away from Liverpool. Hopefully he's more blue than red.I f he's got any sense he'll have switched over to another channel and watch something else. When a call comes though just say it's Liverpool's goal, free kick whatever and go back to watching Britain's got a strictly voice with Ant n Dec.
It is Mike Dean on VAR and Jon Toss as the 4th official. Quite an experienced line-up for the game actually.
If you look at exactly 6 mins 0 seconds, right in the middle between the "1" and "L", that is me as a young 'erbert down at the fence wondering whether to follow my mate onto the pitch. I was a goody, goody two shoes and **** scared of breaking the law (especially in front of the telebox camera). He went on to commit serious offences like smashing light bulbs on the tube trains on the Met line. Honestly, up to then, this was probably the happiest moment in my life!!!!
All his Liverpool supporting mates will be putting pressure on him beforehand! Not that it will make much difference.
We always beat Liverpool in a leap year season in the premier League. 0-1 in 99/00 3-0 in 15/16 5-0 in 19/20???
Well you looked utterly confused. Probably the same look you'll exhibit if we get anything out of this weekend's game.
Yes I'd noticed that and the fact that it's actually Feb 29th we are playing them but didn't want to tempt fate.
