No coincidence that their period of dominance ended when the pass-back was outlawed.

I'll have a pint of what you've been drinking! I refer you to a previous post I wrote on my love of the rags, which I stand by.If previous rag teams means those since red nose left, I think we all look back at them with extreme fondness. I wonder what they think of Chelsea throwing caution to the wind against us in the last two matches. Or is that our fault as well?

All I remember was after them going 1-0 up Grobbelaar rolling out to Hansen (or any other defender) and them passing it back and him picking it up again. Time wasting at its best in them daysWhen Liverpool were winning first division and European titles they were the most tedious club in the country to watch, yet very few in the media called them out for it. When Forest battered them in Europe there seemed to be a mass celebration throughout the country, and that was a time when many fans wanted all British teams to beat European opposition. Their football was genuinely boring and if the media aren't impressed by us they should look up a few old Liverpool videos.

I was busy celebrating at the ground so didn't look but when you watched it back, did you notice whether Kante got booked for his, fortunately unsuccessful, attempt to cripple KDB as he left him standing ?
Shouldn't have been booked.
Laws now are that a deliberate foul to break up play only gets a booking if (a) it stops the attack or (b) it satisfies other conditions (e,g reckless). Kante's was clearly neither.

Its really just like seeing the old school bully in the pub and smiling in fond rememberance of the day he finally got a well deserved battering. A fond memory, even if you still hate his guts.I'll have a pint of what you've been drinking! I refer you to a previous post I wrote on my love of the rags, which I stand by.

I had this argument with someone the other week and they were looking at me as though I had 3 heads!!! Thank you for confirming I've not gone mad.No coincidence that their period of dominance ended when the pass-back was outlawed.
That might have been Delaney. He was definitely on this afternoon - I heard them thank him when his piece finished. I didn't hear all his interview though.Just heard some bellend on Hawksbee and Jacobs saying that nobody .. apart from City fans... will look back at our team with any fondness... unlike previous teams like the Rags !!!
We're just a machine and it's boring apparently
No it was before he came on. Some opinionated clown talking through all the weekend games and acting like he knew everythingThat might have been Delaney. He was definitely on this afternoon - I heard them thank him when his piece finished. I didn't hear all his interview though.

Co commentator Lee Dixon pre game on American TV ,Saturday “ I was born in Manchester and was a City fan as a boy , but today I really really want a Chelsea win, one team being so far ahead is not good for football.
Then Spent the game explaining how City were there for the taking and defensively shaky. & how Chelsea created ALL the best chances.
Pretty much a carbon copy of his behavior when we played Arsenal, although he does have a professional allegiance to them.
