To annoy Rangers fans. I don't think it was that widespread, a few youths outside the stadium and some in the stadium at Ibrox maybe when a few Rangers youths approached them after the game (from what i heard and saw on social media)
The funny thing is in NI here if you go up the Shankill Road, or other Loyalist areas, Liverpool would be the one of the most popular teams.

IIRC we're the Catholic club and they're the Protestant club. Though I'm Jewish so I don't care either way.

Weh weh wehhhh, we're going to be losing our goalkeeper and probably Gueye and a few others as well. Everyone's got players going off to the WC, City included. Liverpool aren't the only ones.

I think his point is Liverpool only have a squad of 17 players due to their financial constraits - where everyone else has 24.
 
My heart bleeds for them.

And I know a lot of Scousers are of Irish descent but I don't recall Everton fans taking Irish flags to the game, except maybe the odd Irish fan group. Our captain is an Irishman too.

They don’t want to be English or British, they also flew Irish flags.

Their anti government crap and the aforementioned nonsense is quickly turning them into the English version of sectarian Celtic.

The good thing about English football as it doesn’t have any political shite in it… yet these lot are desperate to include it.

As quickly as they do it, the quickly they’ll become every team’s number one hated club, if they’re not there for most already.

Chelsea are already the English version of sectarian Rangers
If you think there’s no politics or sectarianism in our football then you haven’t been paying attention

They’re pally with rangers and both support each other but there’s barely any politics at Chelsea these days, you don’t hear sectarian chanting and there’s not a political clash with other clubs.

It’s nothing like Scotland but the scousers are trying to make it like that.

You do know most of us live in the north west of England where two school girls were murdered by the IRA?

Boys.

Tim Parry and Johnathan Ball.

Back when I did my degree at Warrington Campus about twenty years ago, I was involved in organising a rugby league tournament at Crosfields RLFC. We raised money and the proceeds went to the Tim Parry and Johnathan Ball Peace Centre which is next door.

Everton didn’t feel the need to boo the queens minutes silence, did they?

We have the odd Irish flags at City, usually with “City” written on them, I’ve heard Irish accents at City too and it’s not a problem whatsoever, in fact they’re blues and it’s their club as well.

We’re all just there for City and being a City fan is the only thing associated with going every week.

We don’t want sectarianism at our club, we don’t care if people have different backgrounds to us. if you’re coming to City with an interest in City then you’re welcome whoever you are.

It’s what I like about City, there is absolutely nothing political about us. You can be Tory, Labour, Green, SNP, even Sinn Fein…. Doesn’t matter as long as you don’t support sectarianism and don’t support bringing it to City. There’s probably been England flags with “MCFC” written across them and then an Ireland flag with the same message hanging yards away at City games before.

Liverpool fans brought Irish flags and sang sectarian songs at Rangers and sang about the Queen being in a box, as if they were Celtic to specifically be political.

That is totally different than bringing Irish flags just because you’re proud of being Irish and want to advertise Dublin Blues or whatever… which is perfectly fine.

Sorry my mistake, becoming senile in my old age.

Well done for raising the money.

I was in Amsterdam when Chelsea played Benfica in the Europa League final a few years back and there was a lot of Linfield fans also supporting Chelsea. I'd say amongst their older fans they still have a Protestant / Right wing bias

Probably still there but it’s nowhere near Scotland.

I really hope it doesn’t creep in down here.
