Still the article itself was a nice nod to City's history which most journos seem to ignore. Enjoyed reading that.

What do you fucking know with a user name like that, there wasn't 750k there, we know it and fucking merseyside police know it, like people are saying, they can estimate this but can't find a few a scousers who attacked a team bus, the whole of merseyside is corrupt, gooner6729 how did your parade go, oops!

One of his parades didn’t go well. But if Bayern has one, I guess that went better.

To summarise the media onslaught on all things City related.

First they attacked the owners.
Then they attacked the club.
Then they attacked the players.
Now they attack the fans.

I don't think there's anyone left for them to attack now.

I’d be fucking terrified if I was Moonchester or Moonbeams!

I thought it was absurd that he got man of the match. Everytime Spurs attacked there seemed to be a huge gap in the centre of their defence. Van Dijk and Trent Alexander were dragged all over the place and if Kane wasn't a statue Spurs could have scored a few goals. Don't get me wrong I think Van Dijk and Alexander are superb players but they were both poor on the night defensively.

Blubber Barnes reckons hes the only one who shld be considered for the Balon D'or

 

[SWP's back]

See that cretin Galloway posted a really crass tweet, ' no Israel flags on the cup this season then'. An absolute arsewipe of a man.

Yep and he’s been sacked for it. Now boasting he’ll see TalkRadio in court.

The tea lady with comparisons to Mrs Overall in the coming days in the Guardian! "it was much better when the players all just drank tea, but Kompany insisted on coffee and now they all want latte this and cappuccino that!"

Judging by your English you are not from the UK. I'm not sure how metropolitan areas are organised in your country, but Liverpool is part of Merseyside. That immediately increases the local population to 1.4m. The immediate hinterland to that is North Wales, Cheshire , Lancashire . That's a big population within spitting distance.

It's a bit like Man Utd. They are based in Salford. Salford is part of Greater Manchester just like Manchester itself. Beyond that is a hinterland of Lancs and Cheshire.I don't know offhand what the population of Salford is, but it's going to be a lot smaller than the number of people who attended their 1999 treble parade.

It's ridiculous to question official police figured for what is a non-political parade. There is absolutely zero incentive for the cops to report a fraudulent number.

Hahahaha. I'm sure you are now banned, for your arrogant attitude, but if not, and without reading ahead, I'm absolutely sure this will have been picked up on by numerous Blues. So Trafford is now part of Salford is it? Thanks for the geography lesson you moron. Plus for someone so condescending about correct use of English, you need to familiarise yourself with the concept of fraud. The incorrect figures quoted by the police, or anyone else, are not fraudulent (they do not have criminal intent), they are just lies.

You can win the Champions League by drawing every game 0-0 from the group stages to the final and win the knock out games on penalties.

Let’s say the hypothetical group is:
City Dortmund Valencia Atalanta

1. Atalanta P6 W4 D2 L0 F8 A4 Pts14
2. City P6 W0 D6 L0 F0 A0 Pts6
3. Dortmund P6 W0 D4 L2 F4 A6 Pts4
4. Valencia P6 W0 D4 L2 F2 A6 Pts4

Ro16
City v Barça 0-0 + 0-0, City win on penalties

1/4 final
City v Chelsea 0-0 + 0-0, City win on penalties

1/2 final
City v Liverpool 0-0 + 0-0, City win on penalties

Final
City v Atalanta 0-0, City win on penalties.

That would probably see you relegated in a league season.

In this scenario is psycho back in charge?

 

[SWP's back]

Apparently I'm blocked by this fucker, didn't realise I'd had contact in the past.. ah well I'll not lose any sleep.

Haha I wasn’t but I replied with the screenshot of Charlie Clitlicker and now I’m blocked. It pleases me as it means he saw it and it got to him that we know what a sad little pervert he is.

 

[Metalartin]

Who cares how many "plastics" and tourist showed up for the parade? They haven't won anything in years and have been desperate for a parade for years, especially after the embarrassment of 2014.

 

[Paladin]

It's noticeable that "they only lost one game!" is repeated over and over.

Who they lost it to is inexplicably omitted.

They only lost one game in the league. It's a different story over the season though.

Competitive games:

W D L TOTAL
City 52 3 6 61
Liverpool 38 8 7 53

They lost more than 13% of their games. City lost less than 10% of theirs.

Intergalactic illegal residents obviously

 

[M12Blue]

Anybody that comes out of that city is full of shit, and this guy is no exception, when we are vindicated over ffp they'll all climb back under there slimy rocks.

Fucking hope not, keep the slimy twats out in the sun

 

[M12Blue]

Only way to shut the fuckers up is to win the lot next year.
Was it ever this bsd when United were good

I had the privilege to be at that Newcastle game. I shall never forget the ovation we gave the King. Throughly deserved to

 

[RoryisTheBest]

Dont give f--k if a million or none turned up at Liverpool but the one sided biased towards them is cringe worthy. City in the past two seasons have won 6 trophies and smashed almost every single record in the English league but almost past over as a complete irrelevance by the press and media, Liverpool with no league title since 1990 win a glorified cup competition playing in arguably the worse final memory and are set for a period of domestic dominance! They go on and on about them getting 97points losing 1 game last year and how unlucky they were not to win the league. The fact they lost to team who got more points won more games and scored more goals who has won the first ever domestic treble is passed over for a team who has won two trophies in two years ! Can anybody see what logic they base this period of up and coming Liverpool dominance on because looks like only one team, us, has proved what dominance is
This years Champions League Final was contested by two teams who have a combined total of 96 years since one of them won their domestic league.

So If the champions league world club's biggest competition , the second most watched sporting event in the universe after the World cup final is just a glorified cup competition, what can we say about the two cups you won part of your treble and how relevant they become if club's biggest trophy is just a glorified cup? Just asking for a friend hahah

 

[urban genie]

Never understood rags and scousers, especially their journos.

They are the only fans thay quantify their present success as a whole

Few years back rags win eufa cup
Rags fans " uefa cup winners and 20 times"
Scousers win first trophy for, is it 8 years ?
"Six times" "joy of six" we've won six"

No you haven't you've won one trophy


We didn't say of the LC win 6 times
The FA Cup win 6 times etc.


Fucking wierdos

Haha are you trying to insinuate your success at Liverpool this season comes close to a domestic treble?

Our three domestic trophies are about consistence over a whole season. Your lot gave up on the League/FA Cup to 'concentrate on the PL', and you only got to the CL final off the back of some pretty dubious decisions, so yeah, enjoy your moment in the sun.
