Charity Shield today

Withe 2-2 Falcao
Anyone else there ?
Yes I was there but it meant sod all to me then and as an annual event still does. Hope the money does genuinely help out charities but it’s a glorified practice match

Yes, first big game in our new Le Coq kit, and first sight of Tony Morley in his pre match white jacket and newly dyed blonde hair.

You get more leniency in friendlies. Can't begin to imagine why anyone who doesn’t support Palace or Liverpool would watch this but each to their own.

Commentator actually suggesting that goal on 20 mins had something to do with Jota. “Hairs on the back of the neck stuff”.

Wharton was a bit naughty with that tackle on Frimpong.

Definitely a pen against any other team apart from the so called big six.

if that's a penalty at The Sty, then that's a definite handball.

Can't be a penalty, its Liverpool, same old scousers always cheating. Doesn't bode well for coming  season if that isn't given as a penalty, 100% clear handball with movement of the hand towards the ball not the other way round. Bet your bottom dollar if that was up the other end it would be given.
