If these barstewards win tonight I shall be demonstrably raging. It's bad enough that my dog died today, 11 year old German Shepherd but this would really put the tin hat on it.

Sorry for your loss mate, been there twice myself and it's horrible, but at least the RS lost.
RIP Woofer... Bally, Howie and the other Blues on high will play with you now.

sorry for your loss mate. I too lost my dog last june after having her for 13 years.... still miss her every day and probably will for a long time yet so I know how upset you must be. Just take comfort that you gave your dog the very best life you could and you'll always have great memories too.

Accident-prone Jurgen Klopp to be auctioned at Hereford Cattle Market after Manchester City game

Hereford Market Auctioneers in action, and Jurgen Klopp (right)
He survived nearly drowning and has twice had to be freed after getting his head stuck in things – but now Jurgen Klopp is doing something right – being auctioned off for charity.
That's right, (an accident-prone young cow named after) Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is being sold at Hereford cattle market to raise money for the St Michael's Hospice in nearby Bartestree.
While the real Liverpool manager has survived appendicitis, the frustration of Daniel Sturridge's injuries and his own team's leaky defence, his young steer namesake has survived different kinds of trauma.
At just a few months old, he fell into the River Lugg and was rescued by his owner, Tom Pearson, a football fan with a knack for naming cattle. A couple of months ago, Mr Pearson had to call for help from two friends to free Jurgen Klopp after the steer got his head stuck in a hurdle.
Last month, he got stuck again and had to be cut free by an angle-grinder.
"He seemed to be having more mishaps than the Liverpool defence and with a similar expression as Jurgen Klopp reacting to his team letting in a last minute goal at Anfield," said Mr Pearson.
The cow version of Jurgen Klopp will be auctioned at Hereford Livestock Market on March 3, the day after his team face Manchester City in a crucial showdown for that battle to finish in the top ten in the Premiership.
The steer should fetch a pretty penny for St Michael's – Mr Pearce has a reputation for breeding top quality Limousin cattle, and expert buyers will overlook Jurgen's earlier mishaps, and his rather unfortunate name.
"Tom has worked at Hereford Market for at least 20 years and is well known for breeding top quality Limousin cattle," said auctioneer Richard Hyde. "His attention to detail and the quality of his stock are a credit to him and all his family.
"St Michaels Hospice is the farmers' favourite charity. When unidentified stray sheep are brought to market, invariably we are instructed to send the proceeds to the Hospice. We hope Jurgen Klopp's sale will raise significant funds for St Michael's and invite others to participate by donating cash, services or livestock to produce as large an amount as possible," he added.

Absolutely second this. We have three chow chows, and it's utterly heartbreaking when one passes away. No dog owner would ever say 'it's only a dog'. RIP to the old feller...
 
All that money spent in the summer for 9th place in the league and an early FA cup exit.:D Hopefully Man City will do them good and proper in the mickey mouse cup final as well.Back in you're box kopites and stay there.I said it before and i'll say it again you're as about as relevant as Wolves are in terms of being a modern day footballing superpower.
 

Arrogant enough to play kids for an all premier league tie. Deserved exactly what they got. Maybe in the future he'll respect the competition a bit more. Maybe this wouldn't have happened if Liverpool in general actually tried to win cup ties rather than holding out for draws and going to pens nearly every single round. A last minute sucker punch was bound to happen sooner or later with that approach.
 
I only listened to it on the radio but it sounded like Klopp lost them that game. They were on top, Coutinho scored, they seemed to be breaking through at will. Then he took Coutinho off, put too many strikers on (I presume he was hoping to avoid extra time) and unbalanced the team. He strikes me as a very old-fashioned manager. Run aroun a lot, put your centre half up front and hoof it to him a la Mick Lyons for us in the seventies, throw strikers on in desperation. I'm not convinced he's a particularly clever manager, although next season should show us, if he gets players for his "system".
