I don't think anyone will be angry at the aim of improving the atmosphere and if this happens on Saturday with them moving to empty seats then great. If this means that Saturday involves this group fighting with stewards and their own fans, then it makes that aim look like an excuse rather than a positive. Let's hope it's the former.

Agreed.

Would love this but don’t think the BBC would want to face the right wing howls for replacing Lineker with someone so strongly anti-Tory and anti-Brexit.

Jesus Christ. The ‘boxes’ seem to really upset some people.

Said with no irony

Penning us in quite well here.

Need to get that Tannoy in the Dolman, bloody loud!

That makes sense for the initial reaction (esp. as City were attacking when he went down) but it continuing past it being clear the player was actually injured stops it making any sense as a decent justification.

To boo to start with in that instance - fair enough. To continue to give him stick when he’s on a stretcher - pathetic. Regardless of whether the rest of the team had been timewasting.

VAR should be a good thing but the implementation is very messy. You can have a goal ruled out for a very minor offside or incident yet a goal scored directly from an incorrectly awarded corner (which we can all see is incorrect seconds after on a replay) is not looked at in anyway. That's before you get into the threshold piece. The main thing it needs is to be quicker, especially in play, so that the VAR official can quickly inform the ref if they've gotten something wrong and stop the huge delay after goals. I'm amazed this isn't already the case with the technology available. It has got some positives, it's improved decision making overall - which just shows given the anger over it how bad refereeing was pre-VAR.

Brilliant game from him and Pring was immense.

No Weimann.

Disappointing performance in general but particularly the lack of response after we conceded the 2nd goal - not helped by our lack of shape/midfield.

Sad news but the right decision by the looks of the advice. Big loss, was immense on his day.

I’m not saying anything, do not want to jinx it.

Just disappointing, moments of looking decent but shaky in defence and just not quite there when it counted.

Sad news. Thoughts go out to his family.

Madness, selling off one of your biggest income streams seems very very short term if that’s what they are planning.

I think it’s a combination as you say from what I’ve read. I’ve never understood this fan parks thing, why invite people to come to the city without tickets and if you do, you need to be able to deal with it. However I also think that any Liverpool fan trying to ‘sneak’ in or use a knowingly forged ticket are selfish idiots and need to take their share of the blame.

Typo? ?

What an idiot. Hopefully he gets jail time. If your first thought when your team wins is ‘let’s headbutt someone’ , you’re not safe to be on the streets.

Was class today and if this improvement continues he could be frightening.

That would make sense. Didn’t get the plan at all today. Blocking off Ashton road seemed an odd move but assumed there was some logic in it but clearly it didn’t work.

Yes but it tends to be fairly light in front bit for the reasons above and especially when there is something on at AG. It hasn’t hilariously backfired, it’s just proven that idiots will always try and fight. The reasons for early kick offs are very obvious. Obviously you find it funny that we have to waste all of this police resource on stopping neanderthals trying to hit each other for supporting a different team to them?
