Only beaten three to nil by Gerrard's Champ elects this afternoon - that's a defeat rather than a humping, which starts at 4-0, by my calculations . A win versus Hamilton next week would guarantee us a top 6 and the chance to get the honour to play Rangers and Celtic and the rest for the remainder of the season. On the upside, however, relegation would be removed from the Big Jim game plan. Great result for the southern Saints - should settle ts' nerves a bit. Sorry 'bout the Owls - no new manager bounce...yet. Mixed news, I notice, in the Conference - getting kinda tight up there, but all to play for.

Anyway, Stoatfoe’s pessimism proved unfounded as the Super Saints plodded to a reasonably comfortable win ( at last) in South Yorkshire. Lack of confidence showed in a series of poor passing decisions from the front players, but even with Ings out for a few weeks again, things look a bit brighter, and more confidence should return if we can avoid a drubbing on Weds.I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
I am not a number, I am a free man.

Whither Palace? Zaha back today so a win tonight against Spurs is guaranteed. Article in last week's Observer about our much-travelled supremo, Roy Hodgson, in last week's Observer: Roy's arrival back in his native Croydon is compared to Odysseus' long-delayed return to Ithaca.

Originally posted by cloughie View PostNow come on Jayne and Mario stop whingeing about your mere blips in the higher echelons of the Prem
Just managed to find my laptop and make contact with the outside world again. A brief respite this afternoon (maybe) from the turmoil of moving in readiness for the Manchester derby.
Like Jayne, I accept your admonishment although…
Is it really “better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all”?
I’ve never been able to reconcile this one. Yes, to combat the immeasurable loss of a loved one with the ecstasy of pure love is maybe acceptable, but maybe NOT preferable not to have loved, for no loss ensues.
So (for Jayne) from the paroxysm of the Champions League win to the rather mundane recent losses, and (for me) from the trophy-laden Fergie years to the one-shot-in-the-entire-game-against-Palace performances, are rather difficult to take.
I believe you are an Owls fan. I concur. Losses against Reading are not easy to take, and of course, 2nd from the top of the Premiership, is rather more palatable. No, I don’t accept that a top four finish is a given.
Nevertheless, slap on the wrist painfully accepted, I’ll refrain from complaining again about Man Utd (including after this afternoon’s match).
A million unopened boxes beckon…
Best wishes,
Mario

0-1 at halftime again after 5 home defeats, with 7 changes to the team and after a performance Graeme Souness has just described as "unacceptable..."
Forgive me Mario, but there is absolutely nothing mundane about this....
"This Means More".....
It cuts both ways doesn't it?....
I often feel that Liverpool fans are more like fans of some Italian and South American teams in the way we take it....
(One of the (many) reasons other fans love to hate us...)
Its hard to see where any improvement will come from in the 2nd half.... all we really want see is some urgency, determination, guts...Last edited by jayne lee wilson; 07-03-21, 15:11.
