If you want a laugh then the Stevie Me thread on RAWK is great value at the moment -Jeez it is a full on Scousefest and they haven't been this upset since the BBC stopped showing 'The Liver Birds' on TV in 1979. There isn't a candle to be bought in the whole of Scouseland at the moment as they are all burning brightly.
There are lots of posts in this mould:
“Didn't think this would hurt as much as it does. Love the guy and will never forget him and the countless great moments he gave me. Going to enjoy every last minute of his time with us. Living legend”
This one summed up the Scouse psyche for me:
“Got up this morning and could hear crying in the lounge. My 7 yr old is sitting on the couch in his liverpool kit watching SSN and crying his eyes out. How do I begin to explain it to him? Got me going too and I'm 40. He's sitting watching YouTube videos now and keeps coming and hugging me”
This is my absolute favourite:
“For me RAWK and some of its writers are the Bible of writing. Can we please have a thread dedicated exclusively to the personal write ups on Steven Gerrard. We have some really really great amazing superior writers here and the readers of RAWK will have the privilege of living those Stevie G memories in their mesmerising words”
Probably best they don't have a look at the league table today as well then
I'm sure that when the initial fuss dies down the player, club, media and fans will treat his departure in a restrained, understated and dignified manner.
