First?

Or do you think it will it be the Norwich - West Ham game, due to Norwich being relegated?

20 seconds of highlights because Liverpool didn't win

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Jul 11, 2020 6:02 pm

Well, if we're not on first tonight, we never will be.

Don't know how they'll decide the running order, there is an argument that all today's games have something riding on them, Norwich, Watford & West Ham fighting relegation, Sheff U-Chelsea for Europe, and our trip to Anfield yielded a historic result, as Liverpool dropped home points for the 1st time in yonks, Man City also play, but they're the late game, so i don't know how that works rights wise.

But i'll be surprised if we're not on first after that display.

The Watford and WHU games were pretty much relegation deciders, so if I were a supporter of either of those 2 clubs then 'd be a bit miffed if Liverpool / Burnley were on first. That being said, we did end Liverpool's record so who knows?
Gudmundsson's shot goes in, and I'm pretty sure we'd be on first.

Yeah, very true. I guess unless you're a Burnley fan, it's a 1-1 draw and Liverpool have already won the title, so perhaps bit of a 'meh' result for the neutrals.

They probably won't even show us hitting the bar- they'll be still too busy criticising the ref/VAR for not giving Liverpoo a penalty.

Claretitus · Post by **Claretitus** » Sat Jul 11, 2020 6:26 pm

If Sheffield Utd hang on, they'll more than likely be on first. 2-0 up at half time.

I did think that. If they don't show us hitting the bar it wouldn't surprise me at all.

No chance of us going first now, with Chelsea being battered.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat Jul 11, 2020 7:33 pm

Nope it'll rightly be the Sheff U-Chelsea match first up, i don't actually mind the posh London ponces getting shown up by a Northern team, it's amusing to witness the London based press try to explain that away.

Chelsea were lucky it was only 3, it could have been worse. Great chance for Leicester and Utd to overhaul the Blues in the next couple of days.

You'd fancy both to win their respective games, and then we'll see how good a manager Frank really is. That's when he'll have to earn his corn.

Norwich first. hors doeuvres?

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat Jul 11, 2020 10:32 pm

Norwich 1st up can understand that, god they are dire aren't they. i can't see them getting another point this season.

Interesting crowd noise at Norwich. Lots of booing

Warning to watch the Watford highlights on mute. Annoying commentating.

Sheff u now and Chelsea, no respect for us.

Conroysleftfoot · Post by **Conroysleftfoot** » Sat Jul 11, 2020 10:41 pm

And Norwich evidently wanting £50 million for one of their defenders. They are having a laugh surely.

Vicki Sparks by any chance

Why would we be on first tonight?

Games with more goals go first. Then towards the end of the season games more more at state also get priority. It really isn’t difficult to understand.

I get that...but considering we played at the Champions who hadn’t dropped any home points for 18 months (24 matches) it warrants better recognition!
Bet if it was any other team than Bunley it would be higher up the schedule!

Is this commentator as bad as Sparks?

RingoMcCartney · Post by **RingoMcCartney** » Sat Jul 11, 2020 11:00 pm

The BBC in 2020 , no longer fit for purpose.

The licence fee, an unjust, indefensible and regressive poll tax. That , disproportionately, punishes those least able to afford it.

Time to stop paying this outdated levy that refuses to accept that things have moved on since the 1950's.

Nobody's as bad as Sparks in my opinion, i can tolerate this Robin woman, though only in small doses, i couldn't listen to her for a whole game.

Bloody BBC; on just about last, and why do we have to see the knee taking/black power salute at the start of the highlights of every match? Yes, we get it, we don’t have to see every f*cking one of them. I’m not watching this poxy agenda driven show again until it stops pushing extremist politics. Absolute bollocxs.

It was a pen, Burnley should never have had the free kick as they were not offside

Very disappointing given how many teams have taken points at Anfield and we could have had three

I shan’t stay up to watch this farce again!

Lucky number 7 - they gave us 7 minutes and showed 2 Burnley attacks !!

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sat Jul 11, 2020 11:33 pm

All three panelists were in agreement that it should have been a penalty.

This despite JBG clearly getting a toe on the ball before anything else.

Have they changed the rules?

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sat Jul 11, 2020 11:35 pm

fun fact.

All the BLM matter footage from each of todays games when combined took up more time than our match footage.

It wasn't that good. So unbelievably biased. And it was never a penalty JBG got the ball and Robertson fell over his legs, it wasn't even a tackle.

Shocking coverage. Klopp has now said he wasn’t having a go at the ref about the pen incident. He was upset that Allison wasn’t getting more protection when surrounded by our guys. Yet nobody fouled him ever. He should have farted that would have created space.

Fact. For all the ball they had first half and all the chances they created we made one foul.
Dirty Burnley!!!

On last
Showed more footage of kneeling and drinks breaks than our attacks.
Analysis was about some Liverpool debutant.
Bullshit opinion that it was a pen, are they blind?
Ran out of time for any match analysis.
