Great! Took me back many years as I spent many a Saturday afternoon as a young kid watching Tuffley Rovers in the park at the end of my street. Stroud League in those days!

It’s great to see local football is still thriving even in those terrible conditions.

The Merseyside Derby last night was a pretty good advert for the game, half decent football, a bit niggly and nasty, red cards both on and off the pitch, shithousery.

It was all there!

Was a good 90's throwback to a football game, just a shame that the officiating was consistent with this day and age, so many poor or incorrect decisions that everyone in the stadium on both sides could see, apart from those making the decisions.  Both Everton goals shouldn't have been goals, yet the result in the end was a fair one based on performances of the teams, if not the officials.

Neither Liverpool or Celtic won last night, so a good night.

 Both Everton goals shouldn't have been goals,

That would have been a bloody soft free kick for the second.

Thus showing its all a bit subjective at times, VAR or no VAR.

5 minutes of added time but the equaliser was scored in the 98th minute. Time to have a clock on display like Rugby to take away any discrepancies!

The first one wasn't a free kick and the second was a push in the back, but irrelevant opinions on the goals, the overall decision making of officials was league 2 standard, in what is supposed to be the best league in the world, that was my point.  Great game to watch though.
