It feels like unless you are prepared to turn up 2 hrs before kick off waving a flare like a dipper you are somehow not contributing to the atmosphere or a proper fan.
Wonder how many flare wavers will be pissed/coked up come kickoff having wasted all of their energy watching a coach speed past or Instagraming concourse chanting.
The atmosphere will be just fine on Sunday. It'll be a little nervous if we fall behind, but it will be fine.
Maybe I'm of a certain age, but when I see flags and flares behind a goal.......I see Dipperpool.
It has nothing to do with Liverpool, our manager has asked for our best support so we have to step up by any means necessary. This is our cup final, it deserves more than a 'fine' atmosphere. We have to push our lads as much as we can.
Thats the problem with most English fans when the team is loosing or not playing well they mostly go flat but that's when the players need us the mostGood luck shouting above the tannoy system and the DJ battering some tunes out. It's a football match it doesn't need a motivational speech to make it happen in the right way.
99% of the time it's what the players do ON the pitch that drives the crowds response, if they don't commit then the crowd is flat, all the flares and coked up ultras wont alter that.
If it eases the nerves who am I to complain. Oh Hang on.ARRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH................
Anyone needing to be told to 'rise to the occassion' for this game is probably dead anyway. Same goes for the players.
I'm nearly 60 and i will be making a racket in town from about 12.30 before getting to the ground
All the arsewipes will be at Anfield.Just in case.
Should get past the security checks outside the ground.
If any one needs a few wipes in 115, let me know.
Shout jb, row Y, and I'll stick my hand in the air.

What's the benefit in being defeatist? We're all well aware of the some of the self inflicted issues the club's had with atmosphere. But the greatest manager of our club's history asked us to show up and make noise so that's what we're obliged to do.
I too am of a “certain age” but to me, it’s about fine margins on Sunday and anything, absolutely anything we can all do to make the difference is fine by me.It feels like unless you are prepared to turn up 2 hrs before kick off waving a flare like a dipper you are somehow not contributing to the atmosphere or a proper fan.
