Liverpool (H) | Post-Match Thread

[whipper]

I think tbf, during Liverpool’s period of dominance, from 1976 to 1990, the team towards the end of that period was far more exciting and attacking than those towards the start and the middle. Barnes, Beardsley, Rush, Daglish, (C) Molby, Johnson and Walsh were all exciting attacking players.

And John Aldridge is a ****.

That's because you can't remember ..as you 've admitted
No need to get shirty, lol

Well without checking I think I said “It was a long time ago and I was young” Not that I don’t remember. But anyway. I wish they were a bit more negative during that five year spell at Maine Road that I vividly remember where they Played 5, Won 5, For 20, Against 0.

They used to love coming to Maine Road in that era (except Boxing Day 1985). This was the days before uniform pitch sizes and they loved the wide open spaces of the Maine Road pitch.

Not sure your stats are quite correct though, as we sometimes scored the odd goal in those drubbings.

Remember it well. Showed his class when he was crying on the pitch at the end and his Ireland teammate David O Leary broke off from celebrating to console him. Only for him to look up and tell him to fuck off.

He’s also probably one of the most overrated footballers in history. You hear him talked about as a legend and a great. The reality is that apart from two years standing in for Ian Rush when he went on holiday to Italy, he spent virtually all the rest of his career in the lower leagues.

He's a legend on Merseyside






For Tranmere Rovers

Well I can’t guarantee anything these days as far as the old memory goes and it’s too late for me to be arsed checking. But I’m almost sure that over a five year period the results at Maine Road were:

0-3
0-5
0-4 X3

Just checked. From 1978-1983 it was

0-3
0-5
0-4 x2
1-4

The 1-4 was in 1978, and I’m pretty sure we scored first (remember watching it in MoTD as an eight year old). This was the game I was thinking of when I talked of the odd goal.

Can’t be any other period with relegations and moving grounds meaning we never played five games in five seasons against them at Maine Road ever again.

Thanks, mate. Yeah, was just watching it after searching it down! Broke off to correct myself. We didn’t score first (Souness did) but we equalised through Kiddo.
