Not that I am the most travelled man but I have worked with many Liverpool supporters. Whilst some carry an air of superiority about football most are quite sound especially those from Liverpool. They don’t like us winning but why should they. They don’t act like the pathetic self entitled lot on RAWK devoid of any self awareness. . I wonder if some on there are just wind up merchants.

On the day Liverpool relinquished their only PL title ;-), and City are about to take it back after loaning it out to Liverpool for just one season, more madness from RAWK.

As odd as it sounds, this is 100% spot on.

. . . . . . . no one respects you being there and, other than the arselickers and new hangers-on attracted to the money, no one cares about you either.

Funny how other fans spend so much time and take so much trouble to tell us they don't care! If they didn't care we wouldn't hear a pipsqueak out them, but, on the contrary, they write and write and write page after page, paragraph after paragraph tellin' us they don't care!
 
I’d just like’d to know how he knows what I was thinking?

Give me your York away over 5 PL titles any time of the day.
 
Candlelit vigil tonight at Anfield to mourn the loss of the Premier league trophy they never got to see. Are they the shortest champions ever?

You've been lucky then. My ex was scouse, all her family and friends were reds, the majority of them were brilliant people to talk to until football comes up then I couldn't get away quick enough and found myself constantly biting my tongue.

Football is my biggest hobby, I go home and away they all knew I was obsessed with it so it was an obvious talking point for them yet I simply didn't want to talk about football around them because of how they were when Liverpool comes up. There's a reason so many call them cultists

Back then they at least knew who they were. They stuck in there with their club despite the constant yo-yoing up and down the leagues. They had a quite admirable self-deprecating humour about them and a humility sadly lacking in their neighbours. You could also talk with them in a sensible manner too.

Sometimes, wanting something is not the same as having it. Of course, they always aspired to bigger things but, like what happens with some lottery winners, the reality isn't what they thought it would be. The same old insecurities are always present. The deep-seated feelings of being a fraud are always there too. Living on millionaires' row is one thing, but you always feel defensive and fraudulent when you realise the others earned their way to where they are now the hard way, but all you are is the local top-end drugs importer who grooms kiddies to sell your poison for you or someone who got lucky on the Lotto. You aren't going to fit in, and you get bitter about the fact. You have the trappings, but you get no respect. No one wants you there, no one respects you being there and, other than the arselickers and new hangers-on attracted to the money, no one cares about you either.

Abu Dhabi apologists will just have to learn to suck it up. The club they once followed is now dead and gone. Reputation launderers bought the name and have hijacked the game for their own selfish ends. There can be no respect for that from anyone who cares for football and cares for humanity. So, either own what you now are and get on with it, or shut the fuck up and stop whingeing and whining, pretending to be victims in all this.

Maybe the decent ones left who followed what was Manchester City could form their own club and salvage some self-respect once more. Maybe they could leave behind the abhorrent sportswash that has trashed their name and reputation and build something real back up again? It would mean pottering about in the lower leagues, but lets face it, that's were you were always at your happiest.

That must have taken quite a few recreation breaks to type in the prison library at 68 Hornby Rd.
I bet the warders who support Everton argue like fuck about who gets to check. your mail.

I'm confused. I thought we were the invisible fans and they were the victims

Perhaps I have been lucky as you say. For years it was an unequal conversation with regard to who was the best team so any Liverpool fan could patronise me. I just haven’t met a Liverpool fan who comes out with some of the whining drivel on RAWK.
