If you honestly cannot tell the diffefence between the two incidents then you're an idiot, however I suspect you can & are trollfacing. Anyway Simon Cox is not really Irish he's from Reading.

That aside it was an awful decision by an awful referee. It did not change the fate of the game or both teams. Ireland only needed a draw and there was no way on earth Armenia was winning that game. It does give some creedence to the existance of Karma though.

PS: I'm from the occupied 6 counties. I follow Ireland, my sort is not welcome at Northern Ireland games. You need to be Protestant, Unionist & a Rangers fan to be accepted. I'm none of the above so 45% of Northern Ireland follow Ireland & the rest follow nothern Ireland.

I'm just bitter that Wales waited until they were absolutely sure they wouldn't qualify before deciding to have a go. Any team with Aaron Ramsey, Gareth Bale and Ashley Williams in the lineup should be finishing above Switzerland and Montesmurfingnegro.

Also, Rooney banned for three matches. That's the whole group stage. It's not that much of a blow when you think about it, as judging by their World Cup group stage performance they aren't going to try and score in the first round anyway. But they had better hope for a good draw, as Darren Bent and Peter frigging Crouch are about as international standard footballers as Emile - oh, wait.

It's a shame, just over ten years ago England had decent strikers coming out of their ears (Shearer, Sheringham, Cole, *cough* Owen) but not much else. Now they have a slightly more average outfield squad and one striker. I suggest that they play a 5-4-1 until Rooney is available and hope that one of Glen Johnson's stupidly overhit long balls to absolutely nowhere™ catches the opposition keeper off his line.

Montenegro have Vucinic and Jovetic who are better than Ramsey and Bale. (and, to be fair, England's players too but that's not the point) Isn't Ashley Williams the bird from Mass Effect? Switzerland, though, yeah what the smurf man.

Also I'd be surprised if Glen Johnson is still Liverpool's #1 right back come June, much less England's.

Also also, Fergie: Fans should show respect | News I dislike the man. I do. But I'll be god damned if I don't respect him. He speaks a lot of sense here. Chelsea and City may be better than Liverpool, but do any of them want to smash the everloving tit out of United like we do? I don't think so. I think the level we play at vs United (well, over recent years. I hope we keep it up at the weekend...! Please...?) in that one specific game could smurfing win the league if we did it every week.

I am fed up of these small plucky sides coming to Anfield, playing 4-5-1, and sneaking goals from set pieces. Also diving. Look at this. Shocking diving from Manchester United.



OH NO LOOKS LIKE I GAVE AWAY A CORNER! BETTER FLOP TO THE GROUND AND HOWL FOR THREE MINUTES!!!!

You'd never catch a Liverpool player diving in such a manner. Never, ever. Take a good hard look at a British player like Charlie Adam and see if he would ever dive because he lost control of the ball. Seriously, these are our so called league champions?! I didn't vote for them. Did you? No? You know what, I don't know anyone who voted for them. What a smurfing joke. Well done on winning your cup final you diving bin-dippers. Stealing goals just like you steal hubcaps.

see, look, I am posting in the thread after Liverpool lost. I am more of a man than any of you were last time!

did someone forget to put the studs in liverpool players boots today? they were diving everywhere

[Psychotic]

It was just Liverpool who dived and anything my gif shows to the contary is false.

But yeah no just 'cause United did it too, that doesn't make it right. There were some smurfing shocking dives from Liverpool players today and it was embarassing to watch that trout at times.

Danielle's granddad hasn't been well so we had to go down and visit, so I missed the game. Apparently there was racist stuff coming from Suarez towards Evra. Suarez isn't exactly the most "fair play, good sport" guy out there, but then as much as I love Evra and his insane nature, he's no angel either. I have no idea what to believe on that end.

Gutted that I missed the game, though, but at least I saw the much more important game this weekend (go the All Blacks!).

Massive game next weekend.

If it comes out that Luis really did make those comments then he should receive a pretty smurfing heavy ban imho. He's our best player and it'll severely hammer LFC, but it's right. But given that Sky's cameras haven't picked it up, the ref did not actually hear the comments, and Evra has been involved in false racism allegations before, I'm giving Suarez the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise.

Jesus dogsmurfing christ. Those last 5 minutes made me feel violently ill.

Game plan for home games for Liverpool football club, 2011-2012 season:

1. Smash the tit out of the opposition and get 20,000 shots on goal and approximately 393% possession.
2. Despite having all these chances, they will not be scored. This is because Luis Suarez, while a genius, is bad at finishing.
3. Andy Carroll, incidentally, is just plain bad.
4. And who is this floppy blonde haired impostor and what has he done with the real Dirk Kuyt?
5. Eventually go 1-0 up, perhaps due to a free kick.
6. JOB DONE. WE SCORED. Doop de doop de doop oh who cares anymore we're gonna win let's just start throwing sloppy passes around anywhere.
7. Opposition nick jammy goal against run of play.
8. OH tit WE'RE DRAWING AGAIN! Uh. Uh. smurf. Uh... oh tit. Oh smurf. This is not what we wanted to happen!
9. CHUCK LONG BALLS AT ANDY CARROLL UNTIL THE GAME IS OVER!!!!!!! Andy Carroll does nothing productive with them because, as mentioned previously, he is bad.

Sunderland, Man United, and Norwich. smurf me. Can't keep doing this tit against smaller teams, man. That's 6 points dropped now. And we should've had 3 against Stoke. We play great football at times but we can be so infuriating! I should really be used to this by now.

I could watch Luis forever though. He's everything. Everything apart from a clinical finisher I guess. Honest to god, if he had the finishing ability of 2008 Fernando Torres or 1995 Andy Cole or something, he would actually be the best player on the planet.

edit: jesus christ i just realised we're turning into arsenal. Makes sense given that this season they've done their best Hodgson Liverpool impression.
