ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3


Thinking of you in this tough time wat. Hope you can sleep tonight.

God forbid if ajax injures one of their players tonight. If that happens I'll be thinking of you as i know you won't be getting much sleep.

Sorry mate, I couldn’t really read all of your message through my watery eyes, I think you said VVD’s spirit lives on, and I agree, even though I’ve spent all week demanding the bitter blues sacrifice one of their players legs as a tribute and demanding one of the might redmen snap James in two before the derby, I think those bitter bloosh!te are scumbags for hurting poor dear never been dribbled past in history VVD RIP YMCA.
 

GiGi Why-nal-dum

did he not want to go to Barca????


"I believe he did not want to injure Virgil the way he injured him.

"In my opinion, they take it too far in the games we play against them. Everyone wants to win the derby, sometimes you go a little over the top, but it was too much - not only his tackle, Richarlison on Thiago was also a nasty one.

"Accidents can happen in football. You can be unlucky and injure someone - but the way they were doing it was completely unacceptable.

"It makes it harder as they do not get punished, in this case Pickford."

 
When I played in the 1950's/60's the man you had to worry about most was the guy who came on with a bucket of cold water and a sponge if you got injured. These days people complain about players feigning injury. In those days players used to feign fitness.

Sorry this is slightly off thread but my previous post (above) reminded me. I was playing in the Yorkshire League against a Colliery side. Always a tough game. Our left full back was a very promising player, only 19. Halfway through the first half he went for a 50/50 tackle. I knew immediately that he was seriously injured. So did the ref, as he blew up immediately (no foul given). Our man with the bucket of cold water and sponge came running on to the pitch. I was just about to walk over to tell him we needed a stretcher when he hauled the lad to his feet. The lad stood on his good leg with his broken leg swinging in the breeze. I swear that this is absolutely true - I heard the 'trainer' tell the lad 'stamp your foot on the ground and it will go away'. The ambulance came half an hour later and took him away. Sadly, the lad was never the same player again.

I think most of us can relate to events similar.
 

KKKultists are amazing - the way they manage to live an almost normal life without any shred of evidence of even a single functioning brain cell is an amazing feat. Amoeba have higher IQ.
