Jamie Carragher

Historically nokia was the biggest phone company until they were knocked off by apple, historically ford was the biggest motor company until they were overtaken, historically debenhams was a high street behemoth until amazon came along, napster ruled until spotify, blockbuster was huge until netflix the list goes on and the lesson is you may be historically big but it counts for the square root of fuck all.

I dont expect someone as intelectually challenged as spitty to understand that and he will forever preach to his target audience of equally hard of thinking people but telling people what they want and need to hear doesnt equate to reality only their skewed perception of it.

especially when the parameters are undefined. The only thing they have is that historically they have won more trophies, specifically more european trophies and to be honest they shouldnt even be able to claim that as they denied teams the right to win a trophy for five years in europe.

I can honestly say that when we were relegated to League One, that I never once thought:

"Oh well, Stockport might be in a league above us now but at least we're the bigger club!"

It means absolutely nothing.

I suppose his day job is to appease the most subscribers of Sky which is not City.
Works well when Pool do well but he just switches to United to sell Sky when days like against City happen.

I stopped Sky, for a number of reasons, before the Rat & Flipper double act. Only watch it in the pub for City games.
Does Gary Neville default to the same claim as Flipper, that City will never be bigger or as successful as the Red Arse Cheeks ?
If yes, then it's an absolute farce that these 2 sad-acts try to keep the duopoly ongoing.
It reminds me of the New Musical Express journalists who would only only "like" or promote/cover a certain type of music, refusing to report on other genres.
Look what happened to the NME...

I think it's because they can't/won't accept that being a "big club" and having a lot of fans is as simple as success x time.

It makes someone like Carragher feel less special if he's told that there's nothing inherently unique about Liverpool that make them "big" except that.

A few Dippers (hardly any scousers of course) were playing the history card on Wembley Way after we beat them in the 2019 Community Shield.
I said I'd rather die with our history than live with their shameful history.
They soon shut up.

it makes them all feel special and cosy, as i have said in the past this is the root of 115, people like carragher, neville and the dinosaurs that run football cant accept that there is nothing special about the cartel clubs and they cant abide by the idea that little old city has not only matched their achievements but obliterated them by being smarter, more innovative and better run by better people so to them we must have cheated.

The fact that we are showing them in real time, live and in living colour broadcast across the world that their clubs arent special in any way is destroying their beliefs at a foundational level so like most people who believe in something that clearly isnt factually true they invent a made up support system in order to cope and thats all the 115 is, was and ever will be.
