What goes around comes around eh? Less than a week after hauling Michael Owen down as the last man, Jamie Carragher got his just desserts. In the first half, Carragher fell in to Zamora in the penalty area but the referee let him off the hook again. It was a case of three strikes and your out for Carragher though, with the Liverpool defender finally handed a straight red card for rugby tackling his opponent.
But all is right with the world again after their 3-1 defeat, as far as Liverpool are concerned anyway. They might as well not have beaten us given that six days later there is exactly the same difference in points between us again. Their defeat to Arsenal in the League Cup meant that the Premiership isn’t the only competition they can’t win.
City and Villa are on the same points as Liverpool but City have two games in hand, whilst Villa have one, meaning Liverpool can slide down to 7th. Sunderland are one point behind them, Stoke are two points behind and Burnley three, and if Fulham win their game in hand, they will be just one point off Liverpool.
Five defeats in eleven games, more than double the losses they suffered throughout the whole of last season, and the celebration of last weekend is cut short, with them now on a two game losing run… how long will this one last?
If you think it doesn’t get much funnier, don’t forget Benitez signed a five year deal a few months ago, worth £5m a year, so they quite simply can’t afford to sack him!
made my day:D
Haha..brilliant!
Stupid bin dippers got what they fuckin deserve, more of this humiliating defeat will come in less than a week.
Lol, Scott, you really know how to stick the knife in.
According to Rob Smyth: “Carragher has been sent off for a professional foul on Zamora; miraculously, it’s his first red card in seven years.”
Says a lot really…
KARMA
Lets not get obsessed with scousers.
Really loved this..:-)..
What a genius Fergie is. Come on who would let Liverpool beat us in order for a man to recieve a new contract knowing he is really poor.
‘’so they quite simply can’t afford to sack him!”
priceless
Lol, look at his face – hilarious!
Karma Jaime, Karma!
that 3-1 result was so tasty, I’m already over last sunday.
Long live Benitez
In Rafa We Trust! I would Rather Walk Alone!
I was running round the garden when that dipper carragher got sent off!! should have been last week, but hey ho he got the card and off you go.
Superb stuff! Give him an extension on his contract!
Back to serving the English in spain Rafa! Mine is a San Miguel please senior!
The wankers won their Cup Final last week. Normal service resumed today. Still pissing myself laughing.
Its a shame we couldnt have made it 6 defeats in 6! Their hardest game and the scouse win against us! Looking forward to many many more tears coming from scouseville!!!!!! Obertan looks like he is a lad with a lot o potential! Nani needs to go!!!!! He is our Lucas!!!
Should’ve been sent of at anfield. Oh this feels so good, dippers 5th deafeat. If they continue to drop points, we could see rafa walking out on the dippers and return to his old profession to resume serving the hungry nation. Oh wait, it’s still their year!
should have gone earlier in the game, hansen doing his best to defend him on motd he clearly tugged zamora back before he touched the ball
red card and should have had 1 last week
hope he does get off as his legs have gone and he makes the dippers worse when he plays for them!
Spot on Jimmy. He didn’t slip he purposely fell over to push Zamora away from the ball. They really are in the shit and as amusing as it is I ain’t going to get too cocky just yet. Reckon they will get beat in Lyon though!
Just putting aside ‘Pool’s recent losses – and there’s more to come with games v City and Everton in the next few weeks – for me the major problem that ‘Pool have is that they’ve got no money to get out of the mess they’re in. No decent manager will go there if the transfer kitty is empty, and when RB goes Torres won’t be too far behind.
Liverpool are really in the poo and how I’M ENJOYING IT!!
Didn’t I tell you so at the beginning of the season ?
Carragher is well past his best-by date and for the last 18 months he has been getting by with clutching-and-grabbing. The absurdity of the yellow card last week at Anfailed seems to have brought his cheating to the attention of the media and alerted other referees to his penchant for playing-with-fire.
Five league defeats, eight defeats in all competitions. Describing the club as going backwards would be flattering. It’s in freefall.
after watching MOTD on it i just can’t believe that guy gets away with it, then all of a sudden good old irony came along.. he probably thought he could get away with murder after the united game, cept he forgot he wont have the same ref
He did it twice today. Delighted he walked.
“In Rafa we trust” Thank you God!!!
Normal Rafa service resumed, out of Carling Cup on Wednesday, another defeat in the league to-day and on Wednesday hopefully another gaint step to elimation from the CL.
Had a couple of Scouse Rule book wizards on last week along with that tosser Jeff Winter defending the ref’s decisions.
Oh Just had breaking news – Jeff Winter has been on skysports with the FA, UEFA and FIFA rule book found in the library of Liverpool University and Quote
“What the hell was wrong with the ref today why the red cards?
1. Doesn’t the dumb shit not know that sweet little Jamie is allowed to rugby tackle players – doesn’t matter if he is the last man thats ok.
2. Zamora didn’t have control of the ball.
3. He was running away from the goal (Fulham’s goal!)
4. After pulling him back dear little sweet Jamie made contact with the ball.
So obviously there wasn’t even a foul in there. It All Sir Alec fault he hasn’t a clue about the football rule book
I stood by my decision last week on his sending off. He should get send off for pulling owen down. This match when i see him did the same again and saw the red card finally flash out, i was also thinking, what goes around comes around. How many time can he get away? What was him thinking to even try this? I thought he play so many years and now he still don’t even know?
“Their defeat to Arsenal in the League Cup meant that the Premiership isn’t the only competition they can’t win.”… could i feel any more better ..
Now only for midweek gaffe and throw them out of the Chanmpions League, this indeed would then be pools year .
Looserfool for treble!!!
I wouldn’t laugh too much – what is it? Liverpool has won only one of their last 7 matchs and that was against us?! If they lose even more in the coming month what the hell does that say about us – as apparently the only team that can’t sink Liverpool!? Wish the rematch at old trafford hurries up so that the boys can right some wrongs and kick them back to where they came from for good measure – shouldn’t be too hard as their only about an hr up the road. Actually liverpool is the best team out of the other big 4 right now to be beaten by, as loses against arsenal and esp chelsea could have huge consequences on where we finish come the end of the season. Utd haven’t been overly convincing this season but if they produce their (well overdue) outstanding team performance against chelsea next week all is forgiven (it would shut up the press for the next month at least!)
wohoo! can’t even describe how happy i am with this news.
@dl – come on, you should be able to understand that we let them win so that rafa will not get sack right? that’s good investment if u ask me.
some friends of mine who’re liverpool fans were telling how lousy man utd is this season, and i told them, “well liverpool is hopeless and i hope rafa stays on forever! he’s pretty much my fav manager! never fails to brighten up my days!”
And here i am proven right!
Lets not be too happy, that we were the only team that could not beat the waiters team. But I would also think of the other red card…Denga was it not…that was not a red card…The referring in the Premier League has gone to the Dogs…(Sorry Animal Lovers)…I really hope the FA does something about this…Is their a case of getting foreign referees for big Derby matches…
Sure made my day when I heard the news that the dippers lost and got 2 men sent off. Especially Carragher. After last week, I was hoping something like this happened. Like I said last week, other than the foul on Owen, the number of others times that he went through Rooney from behind he should have been sent off. Finally, he got what he deserved.
The thing I can’t understand is some people saying that he played the ball and should not have been sent off. What a load of crap. He went through the player to get to the ball. Isn’t that what the law about tackling from behind is supposed to protect the players from. He can go and do that to Ladyboy or Stevie Me and see if they don’t extend their injuries.
good for the noise makers.i don’t know why anyone would think they have got their fix for a win in their home over United.Its typical i guess we r the landmark.Its all back to square one now.
We have not been eccentric but got a feeling it won’t be long.Obertan looks a gud prospect,has to get his rythm back though and he’s at the right place.
what i cant understand is if they didnt beat us last weekend their season was over according to their “fans” (same scum who boo the team off, slag the manager and a week later after a win praise them) theyve lost this weekend and theres nothing,
simple as, their out of the carling cup, 9 points behind, easily will be 7th in the league by next week and could be out of the champions league when lyon walk all over them on wednesday night, “our year” eh gerrard? CUNT
just heard that the ref is going to recind the red card,cant say im suprised.
carragher said he got the ball!!!!!!
fuck off.
hilarious!!!
that last bit made me chuckle some what. another 5 yrs of rafa, brilliant. personally i never wanted to see houllier gassed but at least he knew his limitations and tried to win trophies more suited to the scums ability i.e. domestic cups. the scummers are so deluded they think they have a divine right to win the league and european cup every year which, unfortunately for them
, you just cant see rafa delivering.
once again, hilarious!!!
It’s a bit off-topic but what the hell.
I really don’t get the hate-in for Hicks and Gillett.
It’s not as if these guys didn’t provide the team’s previous owners with gazillions of profit.
It’s not as if these guys haven’t provided the current manager with oodles of transfer money and ceded him complete control over the playing-team and recruitment.
It’s not as if these guys didn’t inherit a fabled stadium with no possibility for raising match-day revenues. (and, yes, that’s a triple-negative and I’m not sure what I’ve just written but you can get my drift, eh ?)
It’s not as if these guys raised StevieGBH to legendary status when he tried – not once, but twice – to leave his boyhood team for the big buxx at Chel$ki.
It’s not as if these guys bought and sold Craig Bellamy, Peter Crouch, and Robbie Keane and now use David N’gog as their second-choice striker.
It’s not as if these guys pissed off Xabi Alonso.
It’s not as if these guys spent most of the Alonso-windfall on a player that has yet to see a minute of playing-time.
It’s not as if these guys seem to think that Andrei Voronin is a good player.
It’s not as if these guys – or someone else – have had to twist FSW’s arm to recognize that Yossi Benayoun is a quality player.
It’s not as if the L’poo academy hasn’t produced a first-team player in the last decade.
It’s not as if these guys haven’t been even-more-blinded than the media whores and blindly-loyal fans who think that this is going to be their year.
And, finally (only because I’ve written enough), it’s not as if last year’s incredible string of games played against ten men would continue this year. And, whose fault is that ? OK, blame that on Fergie !
Only difference between this weeks and last weeks situation was the venue.
Dippers always get the ref on their side at Anfailed.
Carragher is just a nasty little thug who threatens Talk Sport presenters when they tell it like it is in him bottling fighting (calm down Jamie, its not a real fight, we leave those to Stevie GBH) for his England spot.
Not that I care about England as its always UNITED > England but he did Capello a favour by “withdrawing” when he wasn’t selected anyway. Shame his Dad didn’t do the same all those years ago.
have you guys hear rafa’s comment saying that he doesnt need to win trophies??? hahahaha…it just made my day hearing that comment..boy..they really are LIVERFOOLS
Carragher deserved the red card, if not, he thought he will not any red cards for any fouls….. MU is the victim on his fouls..
Liverpool have no money to sack Benitez at all… Muahahahahaa…….
Benitez waste too much money on transfer….Basically, he just need to buy Torress because they too much relying on Torres………
Robbie Keane definitely is a good buy but just the stupid Manager dodnt know how to use it and sacrify Keane for Torress…
paddy, yeah…Carragher got the ball….He got his 2 own balls… XD
