Liverpool Thread - 2022/23

Remember the team singing that song we had been singing all season on the plane back from Brighton.
They got their pet media lickspittles to make it about the poor guy who had been attacked a couple of weeks before.
The victim chants have been going on for years they’re really a different breed.

Who the fuck are the Echo to pontificate about what that song is about? Once again, an LFC flag-waver is attempting to seize the narrative and deploy Hillsborough as a shield for other perceived cultural and/or behavioural shortcomings within their fan base.

And what the fuck can the football authorities do about a song that conveys an opinion about others having a culture of not taking responsibility for their actions? How can that possibly be enforced? It’s not contrary to any law to express such a view, and nor should it be. Nor should it ever be against the law to cause offence, per se. When did being offended become the worst thing in the world?

In my opinion Hillsborough was not their fault, but that doesn’t give them carte blanche to deflect blame in relation to everything else, which they have serious and enduring form for.

The irony of an article replete with victimhood, where offence has been engineered based on a subjective view, complaining about a song that alleges inveterate victimhood, is both comical and absurd.

I forgot to mention the 'shocking truth' was 19 players have been unfit FOR AT LEAST ONE GAME this season.

I am truly and comprehensively shocked.

I think Klopp is now acutely aware that this Liverpool cycle is coming to an end....

So you're suggesting he'll be on his bike?

Very Cult-ish.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will NOT face an FA investigation

He will, however, face punishment from the FA after being shown a red card for remonstrating with assistant referee Gary Beswick, but will not know the severity until next week.

Should it not be classed as bringing the game into disrepute

Not a dickie bird in the media when Liverpool fans unfurled a Steau Bucharest flag at Everton

Clearly mocking or making light of Heysel

The stadium tragedy police have missed that one

I’ve found these online, there’s probably dozens of them…

But it’s never their fault, and they don’t understand why everyone chants that at them?

They’re literally glorifying the deaths of the 39 at Heysel and openly laughing about it in banners and most likely songs that they have in their pubs and buses… but they’re the ones who are always the victims?!

Fucking cultist idiots.

It’s unbelievable, it really is.

'Jurgen Klopp has no excuse for defeat despite shocking truth about 19 Liverpool players'


The most notable incident in the first half was the quickness with which the Forest support launched into the familiar abusive tropes Liverpool fans are seemingly having to hear every week right now with regards to the Hillsborough tragedy. The match was only five minutes old when they resorted to telling their counterparts that it was 'never their fault' - a cruel jibe with inherent links to the disaster that took the lives of 97 Liverpool fans.

What was most galling is the fact that it could quite so easily have been the Forest fans in the Leppings Lane end back in April 1989. If this particular set of supporters cannot abstain from such disgusting terrace activity then what chance have Reds' followers got of avoiding this issue up and down the country every week? Only lip-service is being paid to calling this behaviour out beyond the Anfield bubble. More needs to be done by English football's authorities.

From the Echo.

Interesting, a newspaper calling for a crackdown on free speech. Or is it just for those who disagree with their version of the truth.

I can’t see anyone with brown envelopes?

Like it, I was of course referring to the king bottom right with loads of dosh spilling from his hands.
