I was 6 years old, it was 1979, I saw a team playing on the tv and apparently said ‘I’ll have them’. They were playing United and my 4 year old brother said ‘ok I’ll have the others’Of all the clubs to choose to support you fucking chose Liverpool? Fucking Liverpool?! How original… boring!
Why is it fans like you never pop up and say “I’ve never even been to Yeovil - I’m just a fan”?
What was it about the all-time English football trophy table that made you support Liverpool?
The rest is history.
I’ve been through a lot of ‘it’s our year’ disasters so I’m just enjoying a bit of success whilst I can. In truth I find it hard to associate with the fan base at all. The accent does my head in for a start.
Take the scummy fans out of the equation though and I support the team and the club obsessively.
