After Liverpool’s humiliating defeat on Wednesday to a
club from the fourth tier of English Football in the
league Cup, they are now preparing to face Sundland on
Sunday in the premier league. If they lose, the reds
could drop into the bottom three of the table and that
would continue a dreadful start to the season for their
new manager Roy Hodgson. Liverpool has already lost to
rivals Manchester City and Manchester United. The former
Liverpool defender Mark Lawrenson says Hodgson’s hands
are tied until the Club gets news owners.

Stuart Broad has been fined 50% of his match fee for
throwing the ball at Pakistan batsman Zulqarnain Haider
during the second Test at Edgbaston. England
seamer Broad hit Haider on the shoulder as England
struggled for wickets during the third day. Haider had
earlier survived a concerted caught-behind appeal by
Broad and went on to hit 88 in Pakistan's 291-9. The
24-year-old Broad had pleaded guilty to a charge of
"throwing the ball inappropriately". Broad's guilty plea
meant there was no need for Sri Lankan match referee
Ranjan Madugalle to hold a full hearing after stumps on
Sunday. "The actions of Stuart Broad were unacceptable,"
Madugalle said in an International Cricket Council
statement issued on Monday.
