Liverpool thread 2017/18

They live in their own little world the Dippers, above and beyond reproach. The club and local Police need to take a long hard look at the security for European games.

Hopefully they will be punished by Uefa ie games played behind closed doors. Highly doubt this will happen though.

I can't believe it has just been on the ITV news about their meeting about next weeks second leg, absolutely unbelievable.

Last week they were the home team and the onus was on them and the police to ensure the safety of fans and they both failed miserably.....again. While it is awful that man suffered the injury and I pray he pulls through, on the whole it was small pockets of fan's fighting one another. The mass hysteria, law breaking etcetera came once again from Liverpool fans. The sheer hypocrisy now bleating about protection in Rome when they give scant protection to visiting teams and fans is sickening. This is nothing new, remember them attacking an ambulance trying to get Alan Smith to hospital against the rags?

Their fans absolutely pulverised our team bus and threw and set off flares right under the noses of the Merseyside police who did almost nothing to prevent or stop it. Indeed if it wasn't for the design of the coach many injuries or worse would have happened. This shameful episode cannot be allowed to be swept under the carpet! One injured fan, as regrettable as it is, has allowed those tossers to play the victim card once more when nothing could be further from the truth.

Just seen klopp saying you should treat people like you wish to be treated so he won't mind the ultras bricking their coach then

F***ing hell, the hypocrisy get's worse.

Jurgen Klopp. Today's press conference.

“It’s common sense,” said the Reds boss in his press conference today.

“What else can I say? Behave. Treat other people how you would want to be treated yourself.”

Not to mention him also say supporters should be protected.

They really have become a running joke, believing all their bullshit!

Just had to nip out, so put 5Live on and a bit of Talkshite. My life, Liverpool are getting some favourable press. Klopp now has a telepathic relationship with some of his players, knowing when to put an arm around their shoulder and when to tell them off - most of us call that people management, but you can now call it ESP.

Their whole season, well all they're talking about, is three games v us, and one v Roma. No mention of two draws and a defeat to the bottom team, or only being third in the league, and going out of both domestic cup competitions early doors.

I recently stumbled upon an article by a United supporter (who writes for ESPN and a few other publications) concerning the origins of the “Always the victim” chant, and the rags claim, that, amongst other things, it began with Liverpool’s bizarre defence of Luis Suarez after he’d been found guilty of racially abusing Patrice Evra, and had nothing to do with Hillsborough.

In fairness, it’s a well balanced piece, but one thing I’d completely forgotten, and since cross referenced, is the story behind the first British citizen to receive a Royal Pardon for an offence committed overseas.

Google Michael Shields and picture the “Justice for Michael” tee shirts, worn by Carragher and Gerrard.

Even if Shields was completely innocent,(and a pardon isn’t the same as a different verdict) then the poor Bulgarian waiter must have been clobbered by one of his mates.

However, LFC didn’t really want justice. They just wanted one of their fans to be released.

They seem think that attacking our bus was a jolly party. What happened to their fan was wrong and needs punishing and so do Liverpool for what happened on our visit. I hope that the Rome police force is more capable of protecting people than the Mersey police were, at least I expect the Rome police to try.

I don't know exactly what happened to that poor Irish guy but I suspect he was hit and possibly fell and hit his head. Some of their fans are saying that you can't compare the two incidents of our coach and this guy but what if the stuff they were throwing had the same effect and someone fell and hit their head or a steward was hit and went under the coach's wheel? It can be small margins between serious or fatal injuries and less serious ones. Fuck them. I hope they get chased all over Rome and the Italian police baton charge them. I don't want anyone to get seriously hurt but I'd laugh my fucking socks off if I saw pictures of them with blood streaming from their thick skulls after the Italian cops had given them a good hiding.

They completely epitomise the word "shithouse".

I hope their fans get the escort to the ground and no one gets hurt. However, I hope their team coach gets fucking trashed by thousands of Roma fans

If it was Liverpool, the coach would be accompanied to the Liverpool coach park and then abandoned for the fans to find their own way to the ground!
