This is just funny now, 2 goals disallowed for liverpool within a few mins after going 2-0 up.

Barely broke sweat - coulda had more if we hadn't eased off against the 10 men. Reina didn't make a save. Yakubu and Cahill combine to effectively silence any future Blue talk of diving and reckless challenges.
Praise be, 'n' all that.

Here for the football.
Didn't think you lot looked paticularly good at any point in that game. Torres is utter class isn't he! When him and keane get on it properly it should be amazing.
Now if only you had wingers.

I hope you admired todays performance
In all fairness you should of ended with 11 men on the pitch. Shite reffin all round IMHO. Nothing shite about El Niño though, even Dirk was on good form today mom for me

Really? Not seen the full match and the motd highlights didn't show any of that.
Lovely assist from Keane though, hope that boosts his confidence and he starts scoring soon.

In all honesty, I haven't seen it, I was a wedding yesterday. Will get MOTD on in a bit.

The foul didn't look like a red, yellow definitely, but not red. I wondered if he gave it for dissent as well? Well it wasn't dissent really, as in mouthing off, but Cahill walked away and wouldn't go over to Riley when he was calling him over so Riley walked towards him and pulled out a red.

Its sunny somewhere.
In the first 10 or so minutes of the match it was really good to see some width in the play, its been some time since it was like that. Liverpool were raping them down the left side and getting behind them easily.
Then they just stopped supplying them however tirelessly both Riera and Dossena ran down there. It all went a bit flat after that.

Christ, MOTD highlights really are shite, they even made Everton look good in the first half.
Can only assume Riley sent Cahill off because he kept walking away from him when he was trying to get him to come over and Riley had to charge on over to him, in which case instead of giving a straight red, he should have given him a yellow for the tackle and a yellow for dissent.

I did think that at the time. Live it pretty much looked like that and on MOTD Cahill refuses after three blows of the whistle to come back to Riley and even seemed to mutter "Fuck off" shortly before Riley shows the red.. Not seen a match report quote but expected a dissent comment from Riley which may have seen his inability to show Cahill the yellow progress to a straight red
Either way Cahill didn't help himself did he

Was listening to 5 live earlier today and that's what they said, foul punishable by a yellow plus lack of respect/dissent. Silly Cahill

It would make sense given that Cahill more or less refused the show of the yellow by his unwillingness to meet the ref eye to eye. Only way i could see a justified red in this instance.

Yep, he walked away and wouldn't go over to Riley despite his blowing his whistle a few times. Should have been two yellows and a red though, and Riley should have explained his descision after the match though i think.
Might be a bit short of refs for next weekend if all this weekends fuckups are acted upon! Listened to the wigan-man city game this alvo and they were caning the ref on the radio, and after the manure non-penalty and an apparently dodgy decision against spurs...not a good weekend for the fellas with whistles.

I think this is the problem all round with respect for refs. I think it was said on motd.... you can accept their mistakes when they fuck up if they put their hands up but better still you can rationalize the context of their decisions a bit better when they actually fucking comment.
I think given that they're pros now they should be forced to comment. It's the fans and the viewers who are paying so they should answer to the viewers post match like the players and management do.
Be nice too if they forced old sourpuss sir Alexa to comment a bit more too. One of the main reasons i think he's a cunt is he won't face the cameras when his own fans are wanting an explanation.
I think Cahill deserved a red for his dissent+ tackle if we are to believe that refs are coming down on dissent but the tackle only deserved a yellow by its own merit.
Either way it helps the blues bitterness

Watched the derby in a bar in Malaga. I was feeling extremely rough and nearly skipped the 2nd half to go back for a lie down. How I managed to jump around twice when Nando did the business I don't know, but goals are definitely good hangover cures.
Everton seem to be getting worse on a weekly basis. Newcastle up next. Clash of the (think they are) giants.

That was a rubbish game to be fair. Aside from 5 mins from Torres it was largely a snoozefest.
I must admit that I thought Cahill had been booked in the handbags/pushing incident and that Riley had erred by not showing yellow then red for the second booking. It was never a straight red though.

Looks more like a scene from Chicken Run to me. I won't comment on Mike Riley (aside to say that he's typical small man syndrome) (and a useless twat), but we didn't deserve anything from that game. Just hope for your sake that Torres remains injury free.
