Re: Burnley destroy Anfield
I'd be concerned if I was a Liverpool fan. We all know, in football **** happens, but you don't go from 64 games unbeaten, to losing 6 in a row, and against some average teams, being outplayed by said average teams, unless something is seriously wrong.

Re: Todays other footy 6/3
Truly shocking stuff.
They just aren't a team.
You can tell there's no way back for them, they are that bad.
Fulham deserve it, even though it doesn't suit us, but I think others have far more to fear than us.
