Oh yeah, no doubt they are Liverpool fans. As in they watch the games, they wear the shirt, and they cheer the goals.

Really, though, just fucking thugs. Same as those United fans who chant sick jokes about Hillsborough and that "fan" who put "96 Not Enough" on a shirt. I wouldn't call him a Manchester United fan.

"Fans" who enjoy causing trouble and violence aren't football fans to me. Not just Liverpool. Any club.

Many Liverpool fans had no problem sending abuse, and even death threats to Pickford (and his child) when he murdered Van Dijk. Don't recall anyone saying they should be banned.

WTF??

Jesus. You know what, I feel sad that just because some individuals behave like this, the whole fanbase gets a bad rep.

If our fans were doing stuff like that (and come on, we can't be naive enough to think our fans don't do their fair share of nasty shit) would we want other fans saying we're all violent bastards? No, we wouldn't.

To be fair, you have just described Dippers. :-)

I'm sorry, what ARE Dippers? I keep hearing that but I don't know what it is. I asked my husband and he said something about it's an old 80s derogatory term for Liverpool fans but when I googled it it just said something about dipping in bins? What's that got to do with football?

That’s an easy get out. They buy the shirts & go the games & as soon as they do anything wrong you say they aren’t real fans. Others would say they are part of the fabric & maybe just maybe there’s something wrong with the culture of that club.

I never thought of football as being "A brand" back in the 70's it was just football. Since the money men and villains took over in 1992 and created their own brand leaders the focus has just been on their chosen few.

Football isn't what we used to call football now, it's politics, lies and envy all wrapped up with a bow held by whoever is pushing the money tokens about on the board.

Only difference is that it was run by incompetents back then.

Is anyone outside of Liverpool’s fan base arsed about Klopp or Liverpool now? The end of the season with nothing to play for, and nothing else to win.

What’s the betting that the documentary that was being made on them this season never see’s the light of day?
As we all know, the media don’t have the balls to call it, but they have genuinely bottled it at the business end of the season. They collapsed in that semi final against United when the game was done and dusted and they should have won the league game against them also. After that, they were gone. If that would have been us or Arsenal you would never have heard the end of it. Mentality Midgets.

Yes we would

All clubs have their morons who should be called out and banned. The thing is, Liverpool fans behaviour crops up again and again, more than any other clubs fans.

The point of my post was to point out that nobody called for a ban for those who targeted Pickford.
 
No doubt this week will be filled with crap about klopp. But actually what legacy will he have left on English football?? Average success considering his time there and the ton of money spent, little if any impact on the style of football played in England and again little if any new tactics or innovations. Just alot of jumping up on the touchline and thats about it really.
