Manchester City vs Liverpool pre-match thread

[Scouse_Jimi]

it is gonna be a cracker hopefully, i would prefer a heart attack to a coma induced from a boring cancel each other out affair.

It will be mate, I anticipate the game of the season. Boxing day was a treat

That not banned under the Munich shit? Should be....

I edited it in, as I thought it was a bit tasteless after posting it.

I was just trying to have a laugh and the whole "scouse hooligan" gimmick sort of fed into it. Thought it would be that type of "close to the line" humour that was funny. Think I might have got that one wrong, and I'm sorry.

You scouse wanker.

Yeh let's mock the dead - good shout..............................

edit: get out of jail edit for mocking football disasters - just a bit of fun yeh?

You see, now I'm actually annoyed here.

I didn't mock a football disaster, I made reference to a hooligan incident by Liverpool fans when a Liverpool fan jokingly made references to themselves as a hooligan.

Reference and disrespect are absolutely not the same thing. Secondly, what exactly could I do to disrespect Liverpool fans about Heysel. You killed people. It's that's simple. This is something that you have to live with whether it feeds into your idea of what your club is or not.

I didn't mock the dead, I satirised the murderers. That's the difference.

Maybe if you didn't want to be remind of Liverpool's hooligan past you shouldn't have attempted to humorously imitate a Liverpool fan hooligan?

And this is exactly the problem with Liverpool as a fanbase. Even a mention of Heysel is "disrespectful to the dead" but consistently ignoring them in favour of your own disaster with Hillsborough and showing the massive difference in effort in determining the truth of these two events is perfectly fine and respectful. As long as you have some sort of banner next time you met Juve, then it's ok and you can pat yourselves on the back whilst screaming outrage.

You're not on RAWK anymore. You've confused referencing with disrespecting, probably because this is the first time you've had this conversation as Heysel is essentially a topic for Liverpool apologists to bust out the poetry on your forums.

Every back page bar the guardian (neutral) is some Liverpool based wet eye story about "glory" and the "spirit of Hillsborough drives us on every day" and so on in a sickening fashion.
Do not get me wrong it was a terrible tragedy, terrible, but this emotional manipulation using that horrible tragedy i find is in bad taste.

I am sure you do think of that terrible tragedy often Brendon but don't use the Hillsborough disaster as a vehicle to gain cheap points.
You have a burning desire for success and are well payed and the same goes for the players, this is what drives you on bud and there is nowt wrong with it so cut that shite out.

Beyond that little gripe it is basically all a Liverpool love in and we are the bad wolf/enemy/scourge of football and so on in that manor.

Meh, back to my specific news outlets i go.

Hillsborough was a brutal travesty of justice lets hope eventually certain people will be held accountable( although very unlikely) but i hope i dont get banned for this but if a similar event had tragically happened to manchester city do you reckon the press would be as sympathetic....

Defo for stuff like that bud, they would have to have a serious axe to grind with us to act in any other manor.
I feel it should be left out of pre match talk and such though as it a very crass and uncouth.

Agreed - history means nothing and that's coming from a Liverpool fan ;-)

Fucking travesty in all these disasters and, in the case of Heysel, it's the behaviour of a few that affect so many.<br /><br />-- Sat Apr 12, 2014 1:31 am --<br /><br />

Yeh cos City have no hooligan past.....

All football clubs do, it's a relic mostly (thankfully) using it as a weapon against opposition supporters is a bit lame, so don't try come all holier than thou and knock it on the head?

If you hadn't been such as arrogant so and so about everything else this week, as have your fellow supporters and milking your own tragedy to gain public sympathy and support to back your side in a truly tragic and self-serving fashion just like the rags we wouldn't retaliate with a few hard-hitting truths.

Remember your 135.
