There's a longstanding tradition in football that's fallen by the way side in the modern era, in the event of a draw such as this situation the outcome is determined by a simple toss of a coin.

Club could also make a bit of dosh in the process as well by pay televising the coin toss, which of course would be performed on the centre circle at The Bridge, I for one would pay a tenner to see that go down !!

 

In the 60s we either went thru against Milan on the toss of a coin in the Fairs Cup or something similar

Looked like it. I only saw them once on the screen just sitting there and I don't know if there are any shots of them celebrating or engaging in conversation.

Big boardroom rift here.......papers just need a headline.  Maybe in time ownership does change, but no concerns there for me

Todd looks like he’s lost weight. Must be the stress of owning Chelsea.

All that creamy chicken, crispy croutons, chopped bacon, shaved cheese, and anchovy saucy goodness. The green stuff could get stuffed however. 

Ahh - those healthy eating salad days.

Ahh- thanks for asking. Im touched.

The quack seems to think that all is good. The dreaded “lifestyle changes” helped - and although on medication (likely for life), it has been reduced and everything seems we controlled.

wasn’t a fan of the treadmill test….just looking at that thing broke me out in sweat. 

The new wacko contract has not helped….

Don't know anything about this lad Liverpool seem delighted to have got him.

Says elsewhere that they were prepared to "smash" their youth wage structure to get him, and convinced him there was a clear pathway into the first team.for him.

 

 

 

Why Rio Ngumoha signed for Liverpool? Huge transfer left Chelsea 'furious'

And while Chelsea are still said to be furious at losing a hugely talented young player to a direct Premier League, club legend John Terry could do little but wish the young winger well on his next venture. “Good luck mate," was Terry's reply to Ngumoha's Instagram post that confirmed his belated arrival as a Liverpool player on Wednesday. “This boy is and will be a top top player."

 

It sounds like Liverpool have managed to sign a young talent they’re really excited about, and if they’re willing to break their youth wage structure to secure him, it shows how highly they rate his potential. Smashing the wage structure isn’t something Liverpool do lightly, so they must have seen something special in this player, whether it's technical ability, football IQ, or something that fits perfectly into Klopp’s vision for the team.

Convincing him of a clear pathway to the first team is key, especially when top clubs can struggle to bring through young talents who often get blocked by established stars. Liverpool's approach suggests they believe this lad could genuinely develop into a first-team player, and not just someone to be loaned out or sold for profit. It’s a big investment in their future.

If Liverpool's track record with young players is anything to go by, like Trent Alexander-Arnold, then this could be a sign that they’ve found another gem. Definitely one to watch for the future!

Stirling is dead to me. The fact he's still costing us money is ludicrus. He failed and has been moved on. Shame we cant say the same with our owners. 

Bully....

Booooo!!!! you should be ashamed....

 

Also, I `m looking forward to the FA somehow stopping this because they dont allow sponsorship from companies who's name begins with "Q".

Qatar is Saudi Arabia's main rival for Arabian political influence, it would not surprise me in the least if the UK Government intervened to stop this lol
