"It's they who are crazy, Mario, not you"

Wonder how many times he's rocked himself to sleep whilst repeating that mantra?
Sweet monumental effigy of the lickle baby Jeeezus in a manger come down from that box of Christmas stuff in the attic and smack some sense into these fuckers before they start outnumbering the rest of us!

Thing is, I wouldn't mind betting that whoever wrote it was slagging Mario off to high heaven when he played for us. Sanctimonious ****.

Dear Mario

Did you know that during our glory period in the 70's and 80's, that we like to talk about from time to time, up to when John Barnes signed, our fans used to routinely make monkey noises towards black players playing for other teams. It's yet another part of our past that we like to forget.

Welcome to the Liverpool family.

After which we only threw the odd banana.....

In the distant past, I remember reading about an Arsenal fan who recalled that when John Barnes made his Liverpool debut at Highbury in 1987 a bunch of bananas was thrown at Barnes from the Liverpool end. I can't remember for sure at what point it happened but I think it might've been during the warm-up or as the players came out.

No, no, you've got that wrong.

It was Chelsea fans that did it.

Liverpool are charging their fans £59 to watch Ludogorets, another example of fans getting bummed. Something needs to be done about these prices. its getting out of hand

If you've seen Barnes lately, you'd be forgiven for thinking someone had thrown the Hollands pie factory at him.

Trying to talk reasonably about football with a Liverpool supporter these days is like trying to claim the non-existence of Jesus Christ to a member of a religious cult. It is actually quite unnerving because its like they're brain-washed - they believe all the delusions and do so with such intensity you instinctively shrink away and question their sanity.
They genuinely think they are somehow different and special.
They genuinely think there is a Liverpool 'family' and they do things the right way.

These are delusions that bolstered them as they had to endure losing their dominance to a hated rival. These were delusions that acted as solace to them.

And for years they fizzed around internally amongst themselves. "Okay we're not winning anything anymore but we're Liverpool. We're special. Lets write another sentimental poem about the Kop"

But since their revival all this passionate bulllshit is now aimed outwards. At anyone unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of one of their pious, condescending, fictional, self-mytholizing sermons.

I can honestly say - without fear of exageration - that I loathe the fuckers ten times more than I do United. They sincerely make my skin crawl.

You know, I ran into this guy two summers ago in a parking lot. He had a dipper sticker on the back of his car and oddly enough was the spitting image of Stevie Gerrard. (Keep in mind this was in Dallas Texas so rather unusual to see.)

I had parked next to him and tried to strike up a friendly conversation - from his looks figured he was an expat, looked close to my age, maybe even knew people in common with me way back when or some such (I have relatives in scouse-land I hate to admit.)

So being all friendly I said "hey mate, Liverpool, eh? I'm a City fan but I reckon we both have have the same enemy in common."

And the damnedest thing. He just looked at me like I identified myself as a member of ISIS or some such. Assuming they had been around and in the media a few years back. Just mumbled something and pushed past me.

Still can't wrap my mind around it. Most expats you run into out in foreign lands tend to be very friendly I've found. I know a rag down the road from me who is originally from their Salford heartland and is just a great guy. Consider him a good friend even. I've got other expat friends from across the English football supporter galaxy and we all get along swimmingly here.

Fucking weird. Never had an experience like that before. And that was even before their glorious title win at our expense. We weren't even really rivals with them at that point. Those people are just like no football fans I have even known. They really are a fucking deluded cult.
