Liverpool Thread - 2021/22

I remember all the pundits saying you can only be classed as a great team if you win the Premier league back to back?

Real fans know. They can spin it all they like.

When we cleared up all the domestic trophies they said the CL is a bigger achievement, when the bin dippers won the premier league they said that winning the premier league was more important than anything.

Rinse and fucking repeat :)

It's been on loop.

I put sky F1 on and it's on every fucking advert.

They were also the greatest ever Premier league team when they won the covid season cup

John Smith (then chairman) and Peter Robinson (then club secretary) - albeit less directly - along with many attendees on the day tried to blame Chelsea fans for causing the tragedy, apparently because there were some non-scouse accents in the Liverpool end. Who knew?

Some have tried to blame it on (that well known and widespread cohort) Belgian skinheads.

It‘s quite possibly the genesis and holy grail of ‘it wasn’t our fault‘ rolled into one. It’s actually like something out of a Mitchell and Webb sketch it’s that preposterous.

Ah ok. Didn’t know and had seen it referenced on here a few times.

Thanks for the answer

I'll settle for a City win

As a neutral I will be extremely happy with that.

So is Klopp going to get upset about Port Vale and Forest, or is it just mean nasty Everton who aren't allowed to invade pitches?

He hasn’t heard of Forest so we’re safe at least :-)

European champions on multiple occasions you should be top of his list, sorry that was before football was invented ;-)

Truth was they went for revenge against the Italians that attacked them years before, which was no doubt revenge for the scouse cunts looting & pillaging kappa & Sergio tachini trackies.

never any responsibility for their actions.

They attacked a neutral section packed with families and middle-aged people. Most of them were not even wearing colours. More than one third of the victims were over 40. Many were just ex-pat Italians who lived in the Brussels area and just wanted to see the match. The LFC fans attacked again and again but were held back by the police otherwise more people would have died in the panic. The Italians at that end of the ground did not retaliate they ran away. The Ultras were at the other end. It was the most despicable act ever carried out by any set of fans (certainly in Europe). That is the reality but Liverpool fans have always been in denial.
Part of the problem with Hillsborough (where LFC fans were definitely not in the wrong) is that so many people were willing to think the worst of their fanbase because of what had happened before. They were happy to lap up the despicable fake news stories vilifying their fans which were put out by the tabloids at the behest of political forces. The two events were totally different but have become conflated over time. Now it is almost impossible to have a sensible conversation about these incidents. It is just too toxic.

Not much of a football student if he genuinely hadn't heard of Forest. I suspect however the big toothed chad was just being his usual snide self.

 

[Rochdale Blue]

I have heard that the guy that lent his teeth to Jurgen Klopp wants them back pronto. Interesting times.

Christopher Lee?
