Liverpool Thread - 2023/24

I keep telling myself I can't hate them as much as I do Rags,

Mostly I detest the dipper fans more than the actual club itself, but I truly hate and despise anything and everything to do with the rags, club and fans.

I've grown to really dislike the redscouse fans over the years since we have become successful - they are just sooooo far up their arses

Grown. I've always thought they were despicable.

Grown. I've always thought they were despicable.

I didn’t used to mind Littlewoods, and all associated with the club, up until the League game at Klanfield in the run-in during the 2013-14 season.

After the due respect we showed to the Hillsborough tragedy remembrance, they booed Yaya, when he was stretchered off, and then the horrible bastards attacked one of our supporters' buses, when it was leaving.

My hatred of everything Littlewoods has increased season by season ever since.

The fans have always been vicious and nasty, but through the 70s to the 90s, the team could be watched with, often begrudging, respect. The CL final in Istanbul in 2005 is when they jumped the shark and the whole thing started to disappear up its own arse.

Furlough FC have always been a despicable club. Don't forget how they stood by Suarez after he was outed as a racist ****, and even sanctioned players wearing t-shirts showing their support for him.

Offended by everything, ashamed of nothing.

Worth noting that police said yesterday the Reform dickhead who was talking about target practice on boat people hadn't broken any laws ....worth bearing in mind when we get shit in the media/from the police for the always the victim chant.

 

[KentBlue]

Ahh, those cheeky, loveable scousers with their dry, quirky humour about 'Germans bombing their chippy,' their down-to-earth, working class charm, and their eye-twinkling charisma.
Remember how we laughed when that first brick shattered one of the windows on our team bus? How disgusted we felt when Eddie was allowed to headbutt Mane's boots - and get away with it? Think of the tears we shed when poor Suarez was victimised by the witch-hunting media just because he was a nasty little racist with a tendency to bite people. Bingo's hilarious remark about a 'sad day for football.'
But above all, the immense anger we all felt when the sporting world made disparaging remarks about the behaviour of dipper fans at the Heysel stadium.

To alleviate the intense suffering their lovely, wholesome fans have had to endure over the years (due to our overwhelming superiority), I vote every club in the Premier league forfeit their right to play for the title and hand the trophy over now, to the dippers. That way they won't have the inconvenience of having to actually do anything, they can just sit around all day doing fuck all but enjoy the benefits of other people's generosity.

It means more.

Not to mention the 40 odd thousand of them inside Anfield openly booing Patrice Evra for being racially abused by Suarez.

I've never liked them, going back to the early seventies, mainly because my late dad hated them so much. He used to tell me stories of when he'd stand on the kop and there would be more City fans than Liverpool fans because they were an average second division side. He hated the fact that they used to brag so much of how brilliant they were after they got the pools money as they had forgotten what they were before that.

Yes. Let us hope that we never forget our history. Youngsters today don’t know just how bad we were. Be humble, but win.
Having lived through the decline courtesy of Swales, our current success gives an old fart like me enormous joy.

I hate to admit it, but the rags did try to tell us. I grew up in Eccles amongst match going reds and they despised them with a passion. I didn't mind them too much because they were one of the only teams who threatened Baconface's United. My word, I've changed my view on them. If United would've knocked us out in the FA Cup Quarter Final and played Liverpool at Wembley, I'd have wanted United to win it.

Indeed.

As I say regularly (and no doubt as far as they're concerned, boringly!) to the younger Blues in our group in the Family Stand, that when other clubs' supporters bang on about 'Istree' and 'Buying Class', just tell them that City stood in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin in 1937 and told Hitler he and his bully boys could to 'get to fuck' when the team refused to comply with the Nazi salute prior to the start of the game.

Now then, THAT'S 'History', THAT'S 'Class'..

And for good measure I throw in Tomas Borges' lines from his poem.. 'My personal revenge will be to show you the kindness in the eyes of my people/ Who have always fought relentlessly in battle and been generous and firm in victory..'

(What's that? Time for my medication again? Already?! No, not that thermometer again, please Matron..!)

 

[KentBlue]

All clubs have a history - even MK Dons. But the narrative from our media is that a few years ago the Sheikh formed a football club out of his loose change and created Manchester City FC. Before that we didn't exist.

 

[mexico1970]

We as a club were formed a full 12 years before liverpool.

15 years before Barcelona

21 years before Real Madrid

But we have no history, it's a fabricated lie meant to demean but it's a provable falsehood.

How could we ever forget. Having started going to first team games in 1973 all I ever saw City win was a poxy League Cup in 76 and after that, apart from runners up in the league in 77 and a Wembley visit in 81, was numerous relegations. The kids now don't know how lucky they are. It should never be taken for granted. Luckily my three sons are always reminded by me as how poor we were and whilst we hope this period lasts for ad long as possible they know that failure is always around to corner and it can all change.

The only way it can change now is if the authorities change the goal posts completely and throw us out, we are too deep into this for anything to happen to us organically.

Our owner if he sells will only sell to money even that wont happen, failing Armageddon we are in pole position.

 

[Protein Junkie]

Just amazes me why it has to be about them. Their tiny pea sized brains really think the whole world is about them.
They are thick as mince.

Is that not a bit of a myth that they threatened bacon face rag side.
I don't think the rags threatened then that much as well when the dippers were top dogs.
