Liverpool beat Chelsea women 4-3 tonight, effectively ending their title hopes. The fourth trophy run they’ve been knocked out of in the last month. My thoughts for this thread are based off post match reaction, the Chelsea players and staff were absolutely devastated and showing some real emotions and honestly it was nice to see. I understand women are in general better at showing their emotions but this is a team who are still going to finish second. Meanwhile, town have been relegated and not a single player seems to care. I’m not asking for tears and giving up but it seems so obvious that town or men’s players in general don’t care whatsoever. Mentioned it about Klopp; when a manager announces they're leaving at the end of the season (either at the start or part way through) that's gotta affect some players' mindset in a negative way.

Regular at Bellend Road, I've seen her. Either her or a very close relation

A close eye on any dodgy refereeing decisions tonight at Villa Park, the Olympiakos owner is well known for match fixing & bribery of officials & opponents, he will be pulling out all the stops to make sure his team reach the final in Athens & win it......Just like he did two years ago for the other club he owns..Forest.

Are you suggesting Corberan took a bung?

Sounds like horse shit to me. Did he stop us from creating any meaningful chances for the entire 90mins?

Are you suggesting Corberan took a bung? No, that was just a HUGE coincidence that every member of staff/players who left Town after the play off final went to work for Mr Marinakis or that the officials were so inadequate.......Wasn't it?

Even after the Marcus Stewart episode? Payback time on Saturday, come on Town! Giving you Jordan Rhodes for a pittance levels things up on that front Jordan was good, but Marcus was class.

We created more than Forest, they just hacked us down with no punishment when needed. By that argument we created 2 opportunities, both of which were denied by a referee. Because we were bang average for 90 mins, there was barely anything else *beyond* two not-given penalties.

They had 8 shots to our 5, they had 2 shots on target,to our 0 (zero). You don't win many games with zero shots on target. We lost because we weren't good enough on the day, fuck all to do with a weird conspiracy theory.

And as I said before, it's hard to get decent shots on target if you're taken out when you enter the box. We should have had 2 from 12 yards.

I know I always go on about it but 5 minutes added on at the end of the Villa game was ridiculous.
From being awarded the penalty to the keeper taking the goal kick after the miss was a few seconds shy of 4 minutes. So for the rest of the half which contained 3 goals, a few subs and a fair amount of time wasting, only 1 minute was added.
Why do they find it so hard to keep time accurately. The inconsistency with it does my box in

We bested them on the day and actually a secret cabal was controlling the outcome all along

I did read UEFA weren’t keen on the idea of having a large amount of injury time but still should be fair .

Should be ten penalties a game if that’s a penalty.

It’s a foul anywhere else on the pitch. Players have been getting away with this for too long in the box. It seems to be more lenient rules in the box which is ridiculous
