A couple of tasty derbies to start.

Everton-Liverpool

Celtic-Rangers

Tarks starts for Everton, McNeil on bench.

Hart in goal for Celtic, Arfield on bench for Rangers.

Looks like hundreds of Liverpool fans still outside. Can’t see that ending well.

Home fans queuing wasn’t it?

Look like the away end to me

Done on the 26th so wasn’t even a deadline day deal

3-0 Celtic at HT, and that doesn't flatter them.

MrTopTier · Post by **MrTopTier** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 1:20 pm

Celtic going for back to back 9-0’s.

3-0 Half time.

Bury AFC v North Shields in the FA.Cup qualifying round is on the red button and it's 1-0 to Bury.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 1:50 pm

Arfield and Morelos on for Rangers.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 1:55 pm

Pickford having a good day, several good stops.
Everton should have scored there.

1-0 Everton Coady

But may be offside

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 1:59 pm

VAR?
Offside, disallowed.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 1:59 pm

looks way off

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 1:59 pm

Ruled out

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 1:59 pm

Yeah well off

Foulthrow · Post by **Foulthrow** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 2:00 pm

Why did it take so long to rule that one out? First image they showed was clearly offside.

Foulthrow · Post by **Foulthrow** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 2:01 pm

Everton fans again on the pitch.

Tricky Trevor · Post by **Tricky Trevor** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 2:01 pm

VAR marks Everton player with red line and Lpool player with blue. I thought they’d allowed it. The best view was from behind Maupay where it was obvious he was off.

Yep how difficult is it to stay off the bleeding pitch FFS.

Klopp's lot looking poor today.

Something needs to be done about this before someone gets hurt or does something really stupid.

It does but the question is what.

I thought Virgil was lucky VAR didn't look at that

Carwin261 · Post by **Carwin261** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 2:09 pm

Van Dyk deserved a red card for that ,commentators trying to justify only a yellow ,as well as ref yes man Peter Walton.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 2:10 pm

4 for Celtic, and the 4th was a gift.

Everton have bought very well in this window. Even Lampard won’t be able to relegate them

True! but that's only because he'll be potted first,

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 2:25 pm

can't believe how lazy Dwight is, the least you can do for 10 minutes is put a proper shift in

Roosterbooster · Post by **Roosterbooster** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 2:29 pm

Superb 0-0, better than some high scoring games

But if City win later they go 7pts ahead of Liverpool
That's a nice cushion, even at this stage

And yes, I know Arsenal are "currently" Top. It won't last..

Poor result that the terrorists win. In the bin dipper derby it’s a shame both couldn’t lose.

Brentford 1 Leeds 0, shame they didn't turn up last time Leeds visited.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 3:34 pm

Norwich 1-1

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 3:34 pm

Oh no it’s been ruled out

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 3:35 pm

Forest 1 Bournemouth 0

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 3:38 pm

From Grimsby message board:

"Richardson looks tasty"
"Richardson looks classy"
"Richardson is a tidy player"

Seems to have started well so far.

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 3:42 pm

Bristol City deservedly 1-0 up.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 3:44 pm

Brentford 2 Leeds 0.

Norwich 2 up and top of the league.

Tough game next week, we have to be at it for sure.

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Sat Sep 03, 2022 3:49 pm

Penalty given for Forest for handball, Michael Oliver instructed to go to VAR monitor but after viewing the footage he sticks with his original decision and gives Forest penalty which they score from to make it 2-0.

Is that the first time a ref has not overturned a decision when going to a monitor?

I’m in the I’m ok with VAR camp. I’m even more ok with the on-field officiant using the monitor to weigh their decisions/lack of

5 wins on the spin for Norwich assuming they win today, and it will be a tough game, but it will also be a tough game for them.

We weren't quite at it last night, however the added recovery time this week should be helpful.

Big game though, and we could ideally do with putting a marker down to one of our main rivals.

Yep agree with all of that. As VK said, the weeks break has come at the perfect time - chance to recover for the ones that have been playing and chance to integrate the new lads.

2-0 Bristol City.
