I have met a lot of Liverpool fans in my time, as well as tons of Rags - 25 years in the military means you get exposed to them. I have never met a Liverpool fan who talks like that, or any of the posts we see on here from RAWK. I met a lot of arrogant Rags though, all of them weren't from Manchester.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.
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.
The notion that Liverpool ‘earned’ their way to the top, or rather that they cemented their place at the top by doing things ‘the right way’ is an utter fucking lie. They stacked the deck in their favour, which by any objective measure is cheating, not that most if their supporters will have a fucking clue what I’m referring to.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.

'Like' a lot.The notion that Liverpool ‘earned’ their way to the top, or rather that they cemented their place at the top by doing things ‘the right way’ is an utter fucking lie. They stacked the deck in their favour, which by any objective measure is cheating, not that most if their supporters will have a fucking clue what I’m referring to.
There also seems to be a certain bizzare narrative among some supporters of Liverpool and united that we aren’t enjoying the success of the last decade very much, which speaking personally is a complete load of bollocks. I don’t suffer from imposter syndrome, nor feel the success is hollow and most certainly am not crippled by any insecurities around my club and my association with it - I’ve had an absolute fucking ball and most blues I know feel exactly the same - and the fact we endured all those difficult years, and stuck with it, makes it all the fucking sweeter.
The division we’ve been in for one season in our 130 year history is where we belong and always will!//
I absolutely detest Man City and all of their shithousery. Division 2 football is where they belong and always will.
Give me half a billion and I'll win you the Premier league! we also have the end of the Fair-Play to come too, which means this shit will only continue. The death of football, started with Chelsea, finishes with Man City.//.

It's a disguise in case he has a stinker. Sadly, not tonight.WTF is with Alisson's 70's porn moustache!

10 year history. Get it right. We had no history before the takeover.The division we’ve been in for one season in our 130 year history is where we belong and always will!
