Thanks for that. Seems a harsh ruling as I would imagine the number of times a goal would have resulted from a ricochet which then hits a hand in a ‘unnatural position’ will be dwarfed by the goals scored by the award or a penalty for an unintentional act.

It does seem a bit strange, but it's the only thing that makes sense (to me anyway!) from the wording.

I'd agree that it seems unlikely that there will be many.

Honestly cannot see Liverpool retaining the championship. They dont (yet) have a deep enough squad and the relentless pressure from the media will eventually be thier undoing. Klopp will have an explosion of epic proportions in a post match presser at some point and injuries will play a big part in the season.

If we can sort out our defence, we will be in with a shout.

Let's see how Chelsea get on later...

We’ve been saying injuries will play a part for the past two seasons.

We're yet to see if that’s the case.

Bin dippers are a breed apart - I was on a fairly long bike ride yesterday in the South Wales border area when I went past a twenty foot flag pole with two Liverpool flags on it. The first had that scrawny yellow chicken thing and the second had a champions 30 years this means more scrawl on it. The house in whose garden it was looked fairly expensive - what causes a grown adult to do something like this?

I don't think any team has ever retained the Championship. If like to see Liverpool attempt it though.

I'm just waiting to see how that rule is 'interpreted' against us, and what is deemed an 'unnatural' position.

Micah has to toe the line if he wants to keep paying the bills.

Their points record is incredible.We dipped last season after 2 special seasons so we have to hope they dip too. They have been below the standards they set ever since 'Restart' though.
 
The Chief executive of the premier league, a former livarpool man, has been forced into giving a good reason for the new rules. This season the rags will lose their penalties advantages but wiil instead get the pigmol & VAR benefits.

And just so there can be no calls of any cheating the dippers will LOSE the pigmol & VAR benefits given to them last season & only get the penalty advantages as seen on Saturday.

This is to clarify any misunderstandings.

I only caught the end of the game. It seemed inevitable what would happen.
It was a penalty. He bought it but it was stupid by the defender.

Only consolation is that if they have to score four to win their games this season their luck will run out.

The first pen was not one,it bounced up off his foot,we would never have got that,that is more to the point
 
The BBC:

the Dippers' major signings included... defender Virgil van Dijk for a club record £75m and goalkeeper Alisson for £67m.

No mention of world record expenditure... I'm surprised they didn't claim that they both came out of the womb wearing Liverpool shirts.
