As will their annoying fucking posters on here..
A few bad results and the fuckers vanish like a fart in a hurricane

Like all resourceful vermin you can never fully eradicate it.

The North Wales accent now is awful, I remember years ago, my cousins lived there and had a lovely quaint Welsh accent, saw him 20 years on and he'd developed some bastardized Welsh/scouse hybrid thing, just wanted to smack him every time he opened his mouth lol, but it's very common there now.

Chester was full of people with plastic Scouse accents. I actually don't mind real Scouse accents but the plastic one just grates my ears. My ex-stepsister used to talk like that, as did I before I knew better.

I don't think Liverpool have been that bad it's just that this season all their luck ran out for a few games, that's regarding injuries, var calls and chances that normally went in hitting posts and defenders. After three high energy seasons their pace dropped off a bit not unlike ourselves.

I'm pleased we managed to get some points in the bag over them during this spell as they will come back.

They were fuckin wank against Burnley,totally clueless...

Pope made some good saves and it was pinging about their area a fair bit. Like us last season the injuries are hurting them.

It will be a massive game for them when they play us next week, we can live with a draw but they can't, this time around the pressure is on them, we don't have to go all out, let them take risks and wait for opportunities from their makeshift center defence, we need pace in the front Sterling and Foden must start. A good time to play them and get a win there.

I'm currently in a debate about City and Liverpool's history. Is there any info on Liverpool's 1960's investment and the Moores family?

Thing I can never work out with the scouting system hacking thing is why we never played the long game

we could have done untold damage for years if we’d fed them a load of bullshit in there. It would have taken them at least two seasons before they worked out why everybody they bought turned out to be a dud and then worked out they had been played

you need to pick your moment carefully

The Moores family basically bank rolled them out of the 2nd Division using money generated from Littlewoods Pools which was the only legalised form of gambling at the time ( for "Dirty Oil Money" read "Dirty Gambling Money")
They signed players like Ian St John for fees and paid wages that many established 1st Division clubs couldn't afford at the time.
Some older posters will know more but I'm sure they signed some other Scottish players and were referred to as The McMercenaries.
In their past history they were formed by a local business man ( John Houlding) who became their Tory Lord Mayor (so much for them being a big socialist club eh) who gave them a free stadium and bought them a whole team of top class players to enable them to win the league.
After he died, they faded into obscurity for years (with the exception of 1 league title just after the war) and were wallowing in Division 2 and didn't emerge as a force until they were bankrolled by The Moores family.

Thanks, bud. Amazing how City's dealings and business is in our faces yet Liverpool's is always kept quiet.
