Well the second most recent football one looks like it’s about Klopp. But I’m really not invested enough to go scrolling down playing dozens of videos to make a point mate.

Just a quick Google of Paddy power liverpool skit brings up a few. Anyone hoping for one comparing them to a random serial killer is in dreamland.

But you did make a point mate...

"Just making a simple point that I’ve seen them take the piss out of all the top clubs numerous times, Liverpool included."

The video you reference is an impressionist who does Pep, Klopp, Arteta, Mourinho etc, it's not club specific in any way

I'll help you out, I watch most of the PP adverts and skits, I've never seen a single one taking the piss out of Liverpool or its fans.

I'm not getting at you, I'm happy to be proved wrong.

He must have come a long way from his Setanta sports days then, he was a horrible City hating twat on that show every week.

Nobody on the show really has any bias. Steve Nicol doesn't really even go pro-Liverpool.

Fair enough.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Its quite funny too

It wouldn’t need to be particularly good or insightful to improve on the childish and pathetic drivel churned out daily by Sky, TalkSport, TNT and the printed media in the UK.

BBC managed to refer to "the new owners" a couple of days ago in a report on the rags game. That's pushing the bounds of reality even further than they usually do. Not football related but a couple of days earlier they published a story about a woman who had travelled the "UK" on her bus pass when she had actually never left England. Standard of reporting on the BBC would disgrace a provincial weekly.

 

[give it to gordon]

Sky sports is a disgrace. From 5:45pm you can watch:

1.The United way
2. Busby
3.the law man
4.Class of 92 full time

If this does not confirm their bias then I don’t know what more evidence is needed. They cater for these cunts and alway will.

Sickening.

Surely their must be a program on the first team to win the big 5 in a calendar year.

We would never hear the end of it if rags or dippers had done it.

Fucking disgraceful the way the press/media ignore the best team the world has ever seen

 

[dadnlad]

It's Paddy Power.
They genuinely have a 'Ministry of Mischief' within the organisation that comes up with all sorts of nonsense to get free publicity, hits & clicks and they are very good at it (all be it, it is now much watered down to what it was before they were acquired by the Flutter PLC).
They had a cracker on United and Ten Hag the other day also. Don't take a blind bit of notice whatever Paddy puts out. Just laugh along with it, and take it for what it is: a complete wind-up.

Still waiting for paddy to call out Liverpool though

Sky aren't there to be fair, they're there for subscriptions and advertising revenue. Unfortunately for us that's where the Rags beat us every time. They just have more worldwide fans and actually more in this country as well. It's just something we have to live with. I'm happy with winning the treble and 5 trophies in total last year. Balls to Sky and the BBC and their crap documentaries.

And it wasn't mentioned in the list of important sporting things in 2023 on the BBC sport website. Raggy cunts.

I was wondering what sort of lack of effort the bbc would put into our achievements of the last calendar year, and yes no mention of winning the Premier League three times in a row either.

Jealous sad twats !

I like the fact they have more

If we hurting someone with our winning, at least hurt as many as possible

Imagine all those rag fuckers last night cheering the new year in, dreaming of any success.

They wake up today still shite

I’ve always found it odd, the brag about being bigger (in terms of a global fan base). Luckily games aren’t decided by that metric. It actually works against them in terms of ownership with the Glazers. Why would they give up their cash cow? No matter how bad they are some Herbert in Oslo or Bangkok will buy the shirt.

I was thinking that , he and markote or whatever he was called were both brutal over the uefa ban stuff

 

[Blue_eyes]

My bad! A bit like “the case has been squashed”. We have a mate who inadvertently comes out with mixed metaphors:

Get your mouse on it (in betting parlance)

Don’t put all your eggs in one box

He’s blowing his own cornet

And many more.

A guy I worked with when serving my apprenticeship was always saying "quote me if Im wrong".

His favourite insult was, youve got no brains at all.......not one!!!

It’s mostly the armchair fans that boast about worldwide fan bases. Most regular attendees know that it means that big games have far too many tourists, and to be fair to a match going rag mate of mine, he’s said this for years and we’re now ending up with the same problems. It’s a consequence of sustained success so we have to live with it.

Currently playing for Ebbsfleet United.

"This is Ebbsfleet United we are talking about here... Ebbsfleet United" ;)

 

[Blue Mist]

Really?

Here's the Paddy Power YouTube site, as far as I'm aware all their adverts and skits get posted here, perhaps you can help me out as I'm struggling to find a single one devoted to Liverpool or their fans.

Having seen the shit the young darts player got, there is no way PP want to incur the dipper hate mob.

 

[Hoghead]

I found this article in the Mirror quite amusing if not somewhat true!
