That was heads and volleys in Liverpool or 60 seconds. You had 60 seconds to score one, then start again if you scored, then two goals, three goals etc. When the 60 seconds were up (the goalie had to shout out the seconds, often being accused of going too fast and having to go back a few), the game only ended when the goalie caught the ball from a cross or a shot with the outfield player touching the ball last going in goal.
It was brutal. Often the fat kid would go first in goal and in the extra time bit would be subjected to one player flicking it up and the one with the hardest shot viciously smashing blammers towards the goal.
Great days. Kids wouldn’t have a clue these days. |

You’re right, it’s not just football, it’s life now with many going through life disgruntled, privileged and expectant, wanting everything their own way and their own terms and not giving a flying phuck about others.
Football fans at the highest level have become customers, consumers. And when they don’t get the standard that they expect/demand/feel entitled to, act like petulant kids. You only have to look at how Man United and Liverpool fan react a defeat online. It’s embarrassing. Proper first world problems and look at me, look at me cry arsing. They haven’t got a clue. |

The standard in both primary and secondary schools were always quite high so my position throughout school was non impact/unused sub (the Tyler Dibling of the day, so to speak).
As I got older and reverted to five a side, I played on goal and was fairly decent. I’ve got a Saints match day programme at home with a picture of me in full Anti Niemi kit playing in nets fo Saints foundation.
Ankle and hand injuries mean that I haven’t kicked a ball in anger for about 8 years. |

Liverpool fans had no restrictions before or after the games at Goodison, that’s bizarrely only reserved for those nasty pasty Everton fans.
It will be interesting to see how it works at the new ground as there will definitely be a ‘coming together’ as there’s only one way in really.
I’d imagine it will be a see how it goes for the first time. |

You won’t see many half and half scarves at a Merseyside derby, apart from the tourist reds at Anfield. The Anfield derby is a very strange one these days. Everton fans get kettled by the police into the ground and kept back after the game to allow the home fan to get their coaches home via the sovenir shop. The atmosphere in the game itself is really low key and somewhat sanitised with the tourists not really seeing Everton as a rival.
Goodison derbys were different, pissed up bear pits which is what derbies should be. You rarely saw a red in the Everton ends in the past 10 years and when they were, it kicked off.
It will interesting to see what it will be like at BMD with reds possibly getting the seat unique expensive seats that you don’t need to be a member for. |

Would have liked to have gone on Friday but had to drive back home for the Forest game.
Which of their best songs did they not do? |

It’s a fantastic stadium, absolutely love it. Every match day is a big event, linked so closely to town. The bars near the ground are starting to feel like home too now.
Hopefully Saints will play there next season. |

Didn’t you break some records last season, fewest wins in a season? I remember the celebrations at leveling Derby’s points tally mind. |

Wolves are doomed, I reckon. Years of selling their best players and bringing in rubbish ones has left them with a very poor squad that’s barely got any PL experience bar a couple of players plus they have an inexperienced manager.
I think it will be much closer for the other two places than in previous years. Burnley don’t concede many but don’t score a lot, Sunderland have done a Forest and brought in almost a new team. Leeds look the weaker of the promoted teams. I can see Sunderland staying up with Burnley, Leeds going down and Wolves smashing Saints record! |

It would be great if Liverpool’s poor form continues. I’m not sure their glory seeking plastic fans can handle mediocrity. |

Said it before, they will both get their chance. Afcon coming up so Dibling will get more game time when Ndiaye goes there. Dibling is behind two of the most in form players in his position this season in Ndiaye and Grealish but his time will come.
Alcarez was great last season but is now up against KDH who has been very good this season. I can see him dropping back now that Gueye is suspended and off to Afcon.
It’s a squad game after all. |

Hes been injured and then got sent off on his first game back.
If he was to go out on loan, there would be plenty of PL teams who would be interested in him. I would have him at Everton in a heartbeat.
There’s no way that he would drop down to the championship. |

I think anything that you can dunk in a cup of tea is a biscuit and I always dunk Jaffa cakes, making a mess in the process.
That said I also dunk cereal bars into cups of tea. But I’m a dirty, greedy northern b4stard so I think my opinion shouldn’t be valid. |

I remember years ago a two bob lawyer on a legal visit on Winchester was pulled up for his massive shoes, he was a little fella. Turns out he was smuggling gear through these ridiculously oversized shoes and then handing them to his drug dealing client.
Very resourceful drug dealers and with salaries of prison officers barely above minimum wage, officers can be easy pickings. |

150 prisoners released on error in the last year of the Tory government. The absolute cheek of them calling anyone out is laughable. Not to mention their monumental mess that they have left the prison and probation service in. |

Ndiaye seems to do it at a canter, proper little dribbler. The main reason Dibling isn’t getting a look in. |

Everton played great for the first 25 minutes, should have been two up but missed an absolute sitter and then were poor second half. A draw was a fair result, would have taken that before the game.
As for Dibling, he should definitely be getting more time. Moyes has form for this, buying players and not playing them for half a season. |
