Liverpool Thread 2013/14

[Marvin]

Liverpool have so far exceeded expectations and as a result they are only one of the few top clubs who have not come under scrutiny. Could that be about to change?

For much of the season they have been in the top 2 assisted by the phenomenal Suarez and the absence of European competition to distract and drain their resources. Well, now they are 4th and about to play Chelsea. They played well against City, but I can see them losing or drawing there and suddenly the holy grail of a Champions League spot begins to look tenuous

Well though they played against City, are they better than Everton, Southampton, Utd, Spurs and Newcastle? They have Suarez, but arguably the playing squads of the above-mentioned teams are stronger and Brendan Rodgers is not an impressive figure. I predict he will be the next managerial casualty at one of Englands top clubs.

City Fan:

You (along with Everton, United, Arsenal & Spurs) cheated and blackmailed the smaller clubs out of ticket revenue that used to be shared and TV money that was more equitably distributed by threats to set up a breakaway league unless you got a bigger share of the pot. And when that worked you did the same to UEFA. And by doing that and deluding yourself you'd somehow earned your money organically, you ensured that the only way others could compete was by external investment.

And if Dubai had bought you instead of those two conman, you'd have continued to delude yourselves that you deserved it because you won things a few years ago.

And by creating the monster that is the PL and the global brands that the top clubs became, you made it attractive for people like Sheikh Mansour and Roman Abramovich, as well as chancers like Hicks & Gillett and owners looking to create a sporting brand.

We may not have won as much as you but we've got just as much history, having won our first FA Cup 60 years before you did. Whatever you think you are, you're a company, probably based in a tax haven, who can be bought and sold.

Scouser:

I like Man City and I think you seem like a decent fella but if you're going to say City's history and Liverpool's history are even remotely comparable, you're off your box. Simply existing doesn't equal history.

I dont think Dowd is biased, but he's a fucking shite referee.

I know there are some really decent Red Scouse posters on here but I couldn't resist telling this story:

The wife has been getting texts, from a Liverpool supporting workmate (at home in Ireland), ever since "the Great Miscarriage of Justice, Boxing Day 2013".
To try and shut him up, she asked if Lee Mason was not still from Bolton when he gave us 5 yellows & 1 red v Wolves or when he gave the pen against Micah.
The reply came back...


Wait for it....


"Actually, he's not from Bolton, he's from Greater Manchester."
The wife just replied "oh!" and left him to it.

So, the moral of the story is: there is (generally speaking) absolutely no difference between a glory hunting, plastic, Irish rag and a deifying, plastic, Irish red scouser. They are the Jedward of football supporters. Tweedledum and Tweedledumber. They are all f**kwits and we have to put up with them, every f**king day.
Soon, they'll be latching on to City. When that day comes, please do not lump us all in the same bracket.


PS: yes, she knows the red for Vinny v Wolves was a fair call. She also knew that he wouldn't know that.<br /><br />-- Sat Dec 28, 2013 1:11 pm --<br /><br />

The final sentence completely fails to appreciate what it really means to be a football supporter and is a sentiment that I hope no City fan ever conveys, as we really will have sold our souls if that day ever comes. That way of thinking says that 'I'm a better football supporter than you because my club has won more trophies'. What a disgraceful way to think and what an appalling bunch many of their internet fans really are. All clubs have history and a story to tell. If history becomes just about winning trophies then the game really is fucked.

You're from Dublin, I gather. Sure, that's not really Ireland, at all.

May I also point out she's managed to combine two seperate games against Wolves, Attwell was the one who sent Vinnie off, so considering she's trying to argue her point by making stuff up and revisionist history, are you sure she's not secretly a dipper or a rag?
