Kenny Dalglish Won't Be Delivering the Module: English Premiership 2011-12

Suárez did shake the hands of (at least) 2 alleged adulterers and an alleged shoplifter and tried to shake the hand of a proven drugs cheat, who then refused to shake his hand! What principles the drugs cheat has.

Yes, it's a rule for me never to shake the hand of an adulterer too

Had forgotten the Wolves game was on as NV has not been on the thread complaining about McCarthy.

So Suarez has apologised then

Well, Liverpool have released an apology 'from him'.

yeah, but at least it's something. Makes the conspiracy theorists look even more idiotic

Refusing to shake hands is a mark of respect in Uruguay

This "well he may be a racist but look at the bad shit these other guys did" is inane.

Rampant homophobia at every level of the game is a serious issue (my guess is that if you polled every Premiership manager and got them to speak with absolute honesty you'd get more homophobes than not) but a lame rhetorical device to some how level the playing field with Suarez. Face it, they're all cunts, so unfair to pick on Suarez etc etc.

Assuming the released apology isn't actually "from" Suarez's massive repentent heart, then surely it's an indication of a significant fissure in management-player solidarity? It's publicly saying he better act in good grace -- as set out by this apology -- at all future times, or it will be an act of war against his own club

^^^possibly v naive of me here

McCarthy out? That was a bit of a doing. V enjoyable watch if, like me, you didn't care for either team.

Oof, that's a proper shoeing. Didn't nv say this was almost his ideal weekend yesterday?!

That statement's pretty strong btw. Good on the club.

Kenny: "When I went on TV after yesterday's game I hadn't seen what had happened, but I did not conduct myself in a way befitting of a Liverpool Manager during that interview and I'd like to apologise for that."

Shame it took 24 hours - and the intervention of the club's hierarchy - to come to the conclusion that he'd been an arsehole.

Great day for my beloved Baggies

fair play to lfc

davitts v milltown in gaa club finals, croke park corporate area v comfortable

Maybe Liverpool can sack Andy Carroll too.

welcome to the gary gardner show

'from this side of the atlantic everyone at lfc looks pedantic/rong/stoopid'

this is true but

'luckily for them it isn't a big story here'

this is prob much more important for Henry et al. Someone should get LeBron's take on matters.

Big story in the ny times today headline is Another Ugly Incident Mars Liverpool's Good Name

did not know the NYT held shares in Fenway Sports Group

davitts gave away soft punched goal, looked square to me tbh. Movement is keane-esque (ireland, latter spurs version)

Are you a denizen of Dublin now?

god, Villa are shit

lone striker thing isn't working for Aguero at all though

oh mccarthypaws

who is the utd alleged shoplifter? xpost

#hodgsonforengland

De Gea

it was a doughnut

oh yeah, i forgot about that

Doesn't count if you eat it in the shop, I thought?

i aim to be a dub denizen after thursday depending on an interview, but only by location obv

this city has a way of changing a man...

I'm there next weekend - would look you guys up but my schedule is kinda hectic so it'd just be high-fiving from a passing taxi really.

thank goodness for that

this is just city attacking and villa clearing it back for city to attack and so on. villa kinda deserve to lose, they look like they don't want to leave their own half.

ah lescott goes and does it. hopefully this makes villa try and do ANYTHING

Annoying the way Bloodzeed is always a little behind. Paying for the quality i suppose

i've got a real sense of entitlement about my illegal streaming services

I've been using this thing called 'radio' today, kind of impressed with the speed tbh

This "well he may be a racist but look at the bad shit these other guys did" is inane.

nobody is saying this. and if you can't see the diff between "if you polled every manager" and actually on the record homophobia then kind of amazing we're even having this discussion. someone's private views or thoughts are not a crime thankfully.

Great chance there for a totally unmerited draw

and again

...and again...

McLeish is just fuckin trolling everyone watching this match

Big win for City. They sound in decent form yet unconvincing. I've been assuming Yaya Toure coming back would sort things out, but I'm kind of nervous for them tbh.

City were pretty rubbish really. The second Villa started trying they had two brilliant chances

I wish Spurs were 2nd, I'd enjoy this scenario a lot more.

otm obv

i am trying to limit ilxing from today onwards, but i'm prob gonna exclude ilf from that, inc this thread too tbf.

Are there others do that? Do we have footy-only posters?

Me, I guess. Mostly because I have social circles to discuss music/books/food/racism but no IRL ILF equivalent sadly.

heh i'm maybe the opposite but am kinda sick of discussion of some of those things lol too long on ilx

Tho iirc sexism/racism may have been raised itt bytimes, and roy keane's writing.
