Community Shield

Think it’s pencilled in as Sunday 4th August.

Season must start the week after when I’m away!

That’s piss poor planning mate, got over 2 months to get all your holidays in.

Would be absolutely fuckin toxic against these rats.

One way to avoid it is to lose on Saturday!

We cannot avoid it, we in as champions already

If Watford win, then we would play them instead of the red scousers.

You can bet your money that of their allocation, only about 20-30% will be scousers. The rest will be from all over the place.

We should be offered the option of either playing the dippers or donating to a charity.

It’ll be like Scotland beating England in the Home International in 1967 - the Scots claimed they were World Champions. A dodgy 1:0 win to the Dippers courtesy of a Salah dive and they’ll be claiming a domestic treble and no doubt start a petition for us to hand over all the trophies.

According to Wikipedia...

"If the Premier League champions also won the FA Cup then the league runners-up provide the opposition."

... which means it will be Liverpool, which is a bit of a bummer.

Did Liverpool finish as runners up in the league?

Curious, as I've heard no mention of it in the media.

I don’t usually do the community shield, might go down to wind the dippers up just out of badness :-)
