KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum question for liverpool fans

It is a very interesting topic but I wouldn't want to be the one to decide on something like this.

Totally agree about Spearing but some games just have far too many of those types of incidents. Looking at it from a players point of view, if you were a goal down and have the other team with the backs to the wall, creating lots of chances and all fired up and then something happens that stops the game. The other team have time to re-group. The trouble is everything that happens changes the game. If you get a free kick, the game stops and everything that would have happened will no longer happen.

Who is going to make the decision to stop the game, can players influence it. How much added time are we going to have. Does rugby just use it for tries?

I agree fully with Bar on this,however can i add that as you say(footie fan) not all people from Liverpool are bad but still have to put up with the general stereotyping that you suggest in your post,we don't receive any apologies for that,or they are half hearted simply because that's what people from elsewhere decide to believe of us here. i would condemn all remarks like the one recognize said but did any one think to look to see if he even comes from Liverpool?.These remarks whilst being written in jest are offensive just like stereotypical remarks are.

mate, at the moment i am on around 70 boards, in 4 different languages across the whole of europe. there is banta, of course, but only here have i been threatened with being stabbed. joking or not, it's things like this that make this stigma stick.

That maybe true! iv been to places where things have been said and have happened but i wouldnt then tar the whole community with the same brush,this is because i know that where ever you go in the world you will get idiots, it doesnt mean everyone is like that,now i think the remark was a terrible one but you have no right to assume that most of the people in the city of liverpool are that way inclined,( jumping on the band wagon) he said it on Koptalk! that means it could have nothing to do with the city, I think his location says Peterborough?.

Footballfan for the record the chap who posted the comment is from Peterborough not Liverpool. That said we are not all saints here in Liverpool good and bad same as anywhere. As someone else said the chap does not normally post coments like that and I am fairly sure it was a joke. If the person who posted is reading this maybe an apology is in order then all is well?

I don't come from Liverpool but I've been in Liverpool many, many times and I can say the Liverpool people are the salt of the earth, you won't find better anywhere else on earth. Of course in any city or town, you will meet the odd head banger, but over many years I have nothing but respect and admiration for Liverpool people.

Lain was just being nice and acknowledging the fact that it was out of order. It was just a stupid comment, made by someone who is clearly young, thought it was funny but knows no better. He was clearly just jumping on the previous comment but didn't really think about what he was saying. I'll get the rope might have been funnier or burn him burn him.

Salt pinch of. Hopefully Recognise will just say he was joking at some point.

So can you explain to what extent video will be used as in just goal line or all incidents?

I still haven't voted as I require more info

meh! never said anything of the kind. in fact, i said the total opposite of this. anyway, let it lye now, eh. it has nothing what so ever to do with the topic in which, there have been some cracking posts.

Exactly. Everywhere is the same - there are good and bad people. Some places have more bad than other places. I'm not from Liverpool either, but whenever I've been there I've always found the people to be very friendly a decent.

I think 'Reconize' should apologise for what was an irresponsible comment to say the least. I'm sure he will if he sees this thread again.

Back on topic, I think if it gets introduced, it would (and should) only be in the top competitions - ie: The Premiership, and Champions League (if UEFA see fit to do that).

I think it's reasonable enough to say that the smaller football league clubs - and non-league clubs for that matter) won't have the resources to support it, so it wouldn't work to introduce it to the FA Cup and League Cup. You just can't have different rules for some teams.

I see no reason not to introduce it to the Premier League though.
