Anthony Gordon absolutely crapped himself. Young rattled him for that, proper went at him and Gordon apologised. Boss by Young, made Gordon get subbed because he kicked up such a stink about the dive and Gordon knew he'd made a tit out of himself.

That dive was so bad and comical that it reminded me of the infamous Phil Neville dive against Liverpool.

Pip certainly gave us some magical moments

Weren’t they giving retrospective bans for diving? Or was that only for our players?

Just us and West Ham I think. They didn't even deem that Gordon dive noteworthy enough to include it in the highlights on MOTD.

The standard of officiating and far is farcial, couldn't understand why that wasn't a pen either, his hand was so far out i thought he was holding it out for a Bus !

Tbf that stopped when VAR came in. Typical that we were only one of 2 teams to suffer though at the time.

Just catching up on Match of the Day, looked like we played really well. Some great chances, and loved the build up and finish for the goal.

I watched the full game on a 'ahem' river and we were absolutely excellent. I can't believe more hasn't been made of probably our most 'complete' performance of the season. 3-0 wouldn't have flattered us. Good signs that Moyes insisted on those levels in what was, for us, a dead rubber.

Stingy owners might see this as evidence of a good squad not in need of reinforcement.

Just want to say it's been a pleasure posting in the matchday forum this season. Hugely therapeutic - through the rough and smooth.

Dyche almost destroyed us
Moyesy got us through
We said goodbye to the Old Lady
And now look forward to a future with a view overlooking the River Mersey.

See you lot in August. UTFT
