Liverpool Thread - 2021/22

I think it’s understandable to state that the Dippers are worse than the rags.
The Rags are licking their wounds. Their worst nightmare of Gods own and the dippers slogging it out on various fronts is the bottom line.
More false dawns than a party of drag queens. P3,Jaded and Varane delivered the Summer Transfer trophy and fuck all else. They blame us for spends lol.
The Dippers are of course a different breed. Flushed by moderate success they are impervious to all traits that scream small club mentality. Best this, best that - all willingly consumed by the rest of the cult.Lest not forget - it’s someone else fault as the default narrative for the negative and fallow years.
Two common factors prevail- we hate them both and they very much are two checks of the same arse.

It was 37 years ago. At least five would be dead by now. Possibly up to ten.

Instead of that, they're ALL dead.

Most Forest fans I know absolutely hate Liverpool.

The one I know does as well. His dad and grandma were at Hillsborough, his grandma never went to another match again after that day.

A surprising amount of neutrals I know hate the horrible bastards as well. If you grew up in the '90s like I did, you'll no doubt have been surrounded by rags giving it the big one and acting like they're better than you because their team is good at football and yours is battling relegation. Liverpool fans are like that now.

Yes, that is correct.

Many of the Forest fans I was reffering to were at Hillsborough. I dont actually share their perspective on the main cause of what happened that day, but it’s worth observing their views as they were present.

As I’ve posted previously, it was wholly preventable if SYP had fulfilled theur duty to uphold public safety that day. I think that is undeniable, wherever the truth around ticketless fans lies.

I suppose we should be grateful there is an international break. For 2 weeks no innocent person will be murdered, have a concrete paving slab broken over his head, get pushed into a fountain, robbed, razored, racially abused, bitten......

I do not want to re-visit Hillsborough, there were many issues including SYP but I would refer my learned friend to a report submitted to the British Government on 12th July 2021. The report was compiled by European police agencies over a 4 year period. It identified fans of Liverpool f.c. of being the worst for violence throughout Europe.
In one part of the report UEFA spokesman, William Gaillard said 'What other set of fans steal tickets from their own supporters or out of the hands of children'
The report goes onto refer to the fact that the Liverpool fans for a Champs League final tried to force entry into the Olympic Stadium and Greek police had to fire tear gas to force them back.
Some fans had forged tickets others simply didn't have one.

Liverpool FC blamed the security at the stadium.

But did you like my legalese (if that is what it is called)

'I refer my learned friend'

Not sure you’re technically allowed to use that phrase!
