As others have said you cant talk football with the scousers , something happens to them.
its like flicking a switch.
i work with the scousers and we have a good laugh they actually a decent bunch until....
you mention football.
they turn into angry seething almost violent conversations triggered by the mildest of comments.
i have great fun winding em up when they have a bad game (not often enough).
fortunately this also triggers the everton fans in my support so i just leave em to it lol
 
A wee tale pre pandemic, was walking up the hill past the new appartments to turn onto Regents road where I was parked. Traffic built up waiting for the lights to change. A white minivan stopped a few yards in front of me. A whiny Scouse brogue cut the air: "Ey 'are mate. " Like an idiot, I made eye contact!

The bloke had rolled down a window and was waving the biggest dildo I've ever seen at me, loadsamoney style. It could have been a black mamba, anal intruder, for all I know a prostate stimulator. The morons in the van collapsed into paroxysms of laughter.

Quick as a flash I enquired politely if it was for his good lady wife, as he had a bit of trouble in that area. Certainly wiped the smile of his face. Remember thinking though, what an odd lot as they drove off!

I think their out of town fans generally have to be more scouse than the locals to be accepted and why they tend to be a lot more weirder. I often get asked " red or blue" living on the south coast now. You can see the sense of relief when you say blue. The fans are a bit like the media darlings in that they all subscribe to the " best fans in der world lar" mantra and they will never change as they never get called out on anything.

Brighton & Hove Albion are RIGHT THERE, guys. And they're not as awful as they were back when I was in primary school.
 
When things are going wrong, Klopp turns nasty.
His chest thump, jumping down the ear of 4th ref and doning that horrid inbred side smile,
His brother running around like a demented dog,
All remind me of the Whitakers inbred family, Kloppy is Ray.

Things don’t even have to go “wrong”. They can go just slightly askew. He’s perfect for them. Entitled, full of braggadocio and excuses, never his fault. Also his chompers are fucking irritating as hell.

One of my best mates is a Brighton fan- took him the Merseyside Derby pre pandemic. He realised in a day why we never got on with our good neighbours. Sampled the joys of County Road also

Having worked as a steward at The Den, I didn't actually find Millwall fans that bad...but then I kept my mouth shut

Having worked as a lecturer at Lewisham FE College for a ten year period in the 90s, I found many of them to be racist thugs with little to no morals...but then, I did teach maths so I might've just been seeing a reaction to that, I suppose :)

Is that a fucking glove puppet or one of the muppets that didn't make the cut for the TV show (52 seconds in)? Looks and sounds like one of Rees-Moggs kids or something. What a prick!

The whole documentary was like some weird spoof. But having lived there I know it to be true- weirdest thing I ever saw was Liverpool and Chelsea fans fighting each other in a pub in West Sussex as they watched CL semi final few years back. Luckily no walls were injured during it

And so were you a regular at the Fox & Firkin? Good nights, good sing a long...
In general I never encountered a huge amount of racism there, but then it was always there. I did witness the odd banana thrown.
Also had one night where was drinking with a couple of mates and an older Millwall fan in my then local. The Millwall fan used the "N" word to which one of my mates decided to take the piss out of him...asking him if he shouldn't use the word unless he knew its origins. He went on to advise him that it came as a derivation from the small single "cells" on the slave ships that were used to control many of them and that these were called "Nigs". The Millwall fan found this impressive and said so. To which my mate told him it was all untrue and that he was a racist...at which point my mate got headbutted.

So maybe I should take my original comment back about them.

I’m surprised a Millwall fan didn’t know his Latin.

Some of my in-laws (and SWMBO) are dippers / Wools from the Wirral and (football aside) they’re a great bunch but bring the game into it and they ALL turn into Cnuts

Thanks, we should be beating Brentford and if Leeds lose, we stay up. But I can see Leeds beating Brighton and we then need to beat Palace. In a much healthier position than few weeks back, but can still see few more twists and turns.
Hoping your good selves seal the title this week also

Nah, possibly went in there once (maybe twice) in ten years, we (as a group of lecturers) tended to just go round the corner to The Talbot or over the road to The Albert (most of us lived away from Lewisham and got the tube into central London at St. Johns so didn't hang around there to socialise other than Friday nights).
NEVER saw or heard of any trouble in The Talbot, The Albert was a totally different story, full of gangs of fucking racist cowardly knobheads - but it had a decent beer garden :)
