It's 28 years since Liverpool last won the league.
Oh sorry my mistake, that's not a myth. It is 28 years since Liverpool last won the league.

Yes twenty eight years.
Or, they haven’t won the league in this century.
Or, they haven’t won the league in this mellennium.
Or, a fecking long time

[Tommy_Catons_Perm]

"Geordie nation" the "hot bed of football". Used when refering to Newcastle United who have won nought for fifty years. Or England greats such as Gaza or waddle ...... but hardly any of those for a generation or more?
Or the classic big target man and small striker duo.... the oldest most lethal combination favoured by clever managers like........ big fat Sam!
