Newcastle V Liverpool- What happened?

I was away this weekend and when my boy told me the score of the match I didn't bother with the twitter meltdown. I didn't know til this morning that Pepe got sent off what happened? I am reading it was a head butt? We might as well hand the semi to the bitters now. thanks

more like an attempted head butt, along with the subsequent obligatory acting job by Perch..

Reina's actions were probably born out of frustration more than anything else as Liverpool have literally fallen apart. They've lost 6 of 7 in the league and now sit in 8th place more than 30 points behind MU and only 4 points out of 13th. No wonder some folks are calling for Dalglish to be sacked.

If your gonna get sent off for a headbutt then LAMP EM! Get your money's worth-
Those saying Kenny should be sacked are crazy. We bought players who have all under performed. We have not gotten Blackpools charlie adam his free kicks have been shit. We have not gotten Villas Steward Downing cutting in putting crosses into the box or if he has the box is empty. We have not gotten New Castle's Andy Carroll either he can't seem to stay on his feet. Henderson will come good if he plays centrally because he clearly isn't a RW. Enrique's form has dipped but he is no Konchesky or Insua. We will lose to the bitters in the semi and this season will be finished. I think we are at the point where citeh were a few years ago. They bought SWP and Ireland types then moved it up a level by replacing them with better players. We need 5 players this summer we will see if we get them.

Sure, Perch did a hell of a job selling the head butt, but what in the balls was Pepe thinking? He had no business going back for seconds with his head like that.

and overturn the red card. Guess that isn't going to happen. Liverpool needs an overhaul. Other than Suarez and Garrard there really isn't any creativity in their attack. Andy Carroll? Can they send him back to Newcastle?

Are you gonna play a direct style of football then keep Carroll if not ship him to stoke.

there is little chance anything would get overturned after the Suarez fiasco. Evra and the report say Suarez is not racists but he still gets the 8 game ban.

He should have shaken his hand the second time around but losing that much money would have pissed me off too.

fook off I'm not shakin this C U NEXT TUESDAY'S hand-I would not have either, no chance- That said, if LFC are offered 60 mil or more I would sell Suarez. If Barca got him they would be unstoppable

I don't comment much in here, but I do enjoy reading what other DUer's are saying about my favorite sport. As a woman, it's very hard for me to read that word and not be offended.

Thanks,
Eyerish
