Jake Livermore !!!

Not sure if this guy is in the right place to play football, Mentally I mean, He has been through rough, horrible times I know,
Has he performed for WBA ? £10 Million pound Player ? but above all has anybody seen what he did to our shirt after the game ?
Now In my opinion this was very disrespectful, whether as I have mentioned above he realised what he had done I'm not so sure, but for me Jake has to be one of those players who needs to move on in the summer, how he got called up for England heaven only knows ...........

I go back to 1959 with the Baggies. I have seen about a dozen or more players e.g. Barlow. Allen, Lovett. Hope, Brown, Allen, Hope, Robertson, Astle etc who I have thought good enough to play international football. Some got a few caps, many did not.
I had never, until this season anyway, seen a Albion player who currently plays for England and yet is not good enough for us, even in this miserable season.
As for tearing the shirt, - he should never play again. Notwithstanding his personal distress, this
is inexcusable. He would not dare do this were he to play for Man Utd, Liverpool or Arsenal.

Tend to agree , I was looking at reasons to cut him some slack,however he hasn't scored a goal for the club, and I'm failing to remember any assists he has made which is pretty damning unless I have missed one or two Huh

Without knowing the reason, I'd give the benefit of the doubt, and say it could have been anger, disappointment or frustration at the result and performance. I'd have been a lot less forgiving had be ripped the shirt off and thrown it to the ground, like I've seen others do before.

On the other question, yes he's been an almighty flop and would be one of a few shown the door at the end of the season, but he is just one of another who's has not only wasted a shirt but also disgrace it like Evans, Myhill and Barry Angry

Agree Bomber
It was a bit of a weird reaction to say the least but remember he was one of the TaxiGate4 there can be no more slack cut for any of these players anymore,
Agree though the reason for the shirt ripping could be misinterpreted, but it was still wrong to do Thumb up

Agreed Beefy. I wanted to cut him some slack too. However, having thought about it, I firmly believe he would not to dare for a Top 6 club. What a kick in the teeth for those wonderful fans who braved the elements today to follow the club. It smacks of a player who thinks himself too good for WBA.

He isn't.

On the plus side ............ Laugh

He tears his shirt better than he tears into any defences or tears into any tackles. Nice fella but poor footballer. Rolleyes

This xxxx nobody is publicly tearing our shirt and we cut him some slack? We haven’t got much going for us in this shit hole of a town but we’ve got pride and self respect. How dare that wank of xxxx tear the xxxx fabric of the beating heart of my town. I can take relegation but I won’t have some toss pot do that to my club.

Beefy 1965 · 04-03-2018, 15:17

How he gets into the England team is mind Boggling Huh
