@Tsportspulse @ItsMeMTJohnson Yes he was down but had just won the 6th round on all 3 cards. The stoppage was correct as the severity of the cut proved.

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@Tsportspulse @ItsMeMTJohnson Just checking the scorecards. If I’m correct all 3 judges had Lewis winning the 6th round. 2 of them had Lewis winning the 3rd round and the other judge had Lewis winning the 5th. Hard to tell how it would have gone but the massive cut would have been hard to overcome

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@Tsportspulse @ItsMeMTJohnson No it wasn’t. The referee and ringside doctor both ruled it was caused by legal punches.

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@Tsportspulse @ItsMeMTJohnson Lewis prepared for a different fight and wasn’t at his sharpest. He still did enough to force a stoppage and leave Vitali needing 80 stitches in his face. He was also starting to get on top in the fight. Kirk Johnson would have been 1st in line anyway not a rematch!

@jan_murray It becomes more about the characters as it goes on. It’s worth persevering with. Remember it was meant to be watched one episode per week!

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@LaCaroRosso In contrast to now it was very harsh and I didn’t agree with it but many felt we should have been more attack minded to try and get a better lead at the top. We obviously didn’t go on to win the league so the disappointment was correct in some respects.

@nchannell @palindo7 @laplfc That was the summer before.

@footy_road @Liverpool_zy Load of crap. Should have sent it down the line. He was a passenger even in the first 30 minutes when we were playing well.

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@NUCLRGOLF Yet He doesn’t mind agreeing to LIV’s schedule! Wonder why that is!

@topskillsportuk Titles shouldn’t be awarded to anyone. They should be left blank as the stain on football that they are. Things could have transpired very differently in those seasons with different scenarios and the pressure involved in winning a title.

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@stennbeeLFC @anfieldforge Players like Owen and Fowler would have benefitted. Both struggled to find anywhere near the same form later in their careers

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@GigsandSwigs @TronCarterNLU He grew up playing golf in the one of the windiest cities in the world. I’m sure he knows when play should be suspended or not.

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@BelieveInKlopp Imagine him playing in a 4-3-3. 🤩

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@KayLFC05_ Doesn’t change the fact he would have contributed immensely to our team this season

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@jhabeeb1 He built a career on people wanting to see him lose and people would pay for that. He was the pantomime villain but it worked for him.

[Dan Dolby* @DanD79]

@anfieldforge Weve had the ‘new manager bounce’ plenty of times since the early 90’s. It didn’t end well
Let’s say we got a new manager now, one of us, Chelsea and Utd will still miss out on champions league football. no coincidence the team that will win the league has had sustained stability

Then #LFC beat them in the final 😊

RUUD VAN NISTELROOY:

"I once played for Manchester United against Milan, which was full of great defenders.

CAFU, MALDINI, STAM, NESTA – I didn’t even touch the ball.

In front of those four was GATTUSO, then PIRLO, and then SEEDORF—the strongest man in world football. It was a horrible night; I thought they would kill me if I touched the ball.

I could hear the sound of their hearts beating, and my own heart was pounding with fear.

They defended their goal as if they were in battle. Everyone was ready to stop me from advancing and to prevent anyone from shooting."
