You mean LFC will be even greater odds on. Already 1/5. Have been odds on for a while now. Good investment. 20% ROI. Think I'll take that

LFc were definitely fortunate to be given the penalty and I agree that VAR should have overturned the decision - I guess decisions like this make all the difference between winning the premiership and other teams getting relegated!!

Why didn't VAR intervene as they did to disallow the B'mouth equaliser?
They did - to confirm the penalty. I couldn't see contact either.

Looks like a penalty to me. From the angle behind you can see him clip the leg of gakpo. There's an even better angle but I can't find it

I don't trust children. They're here to replace us.

No I can't. I truly don't see any contact at all in this video or the other one

Their below average defence got really exposed yesterday.

The Everton v Liverpool meeting ended in mayhem with four red cards being issued at the end of the game - two for players and two for Slot and his assistant - amazing!! And the game ended a 2-2 draw!!

OMG, I'm glad Plymouth only beat the reserves. I've just been watching the scrap at the end of the match on the news. Do you call that 'passion', or 'sore losers'? Whatever, scenes like that have very little to do with football.

Even the reserves have been coming out with some crap after Sunday's shock wore off. Elliot felt it was quite acceptable to block the shot with his hands like that, saying he couldn't have jumped so high with his hands at his side. FFS, he didn't jump high, just raised his hands to block the goal bound shot. The guy cheated, end of.

Prima Donnas, the lot of them.

Actually I’m trying to find this incident and I can’t - maybe I’m mixing it up with another incident?

He cheated by illegally using his hands He'd have been legal if maybe playing basketball to block a shot :?

Maybe we should continue this on the FA Cup thread if you still think that is a legitimate move.
