Good morning.
If Premiership clubs were horses, you’d expect the owners of Liverpool Football Club to be paying a few unexpected visits to their yard to see how things were and perhaps ask, ‘just what the hell was going on?’
Liverpool are having a resurgence on the pitch, but at what cost? It’s unreasonable that Mr Dalglish be culpable for each and every indiscretion by his players. But the manner he backed the buck toothed twit Mr Suarez only served to undo a reputation he spent a lifetime earning.
I don’t want to get bogged down in the barrack room minutia that some Liverpool cranks have immersed themselves in about specifically was said, with what intonation etc etc . In this country we don’t tolerate racism, racist words, racist intonation, be it, ‘nigger’, ‘negrito’, or plain old, ‘blackie’. All of those terms suck and you just don’t do it. If you have any self respect, you don’t debate doing it either.
Mr Dalglish and the other Liverpool cranks who have pinned their colours to this particularly grubby little mast have not just embarrassed themselves, they’ve damaged their brand forever. How? By allowing the inherent frailty of being a Scouser contaminate a whole football club.
There is a dreadful and widespread victim culture on Merseyside. I’ve never encountered a part of the country where people are constantly feeling hard done by or looking for reasons why they ought to be.
Yes, Hillsborough and Heysel were both undoubtedly appalling, but that City was also major hub for the slave trade. It’s estimated that over 3 million Africans were shipped in by enterprising Liverpool traders. Three million people.
All I see going on in Liverpool is a few tourists scuttling about in a rather depressing little museum.
That City and that club need to urgently take a look at themselves. In 2010, Forbes Magazine placed them 6th most valuable football team in the world. That value trickles away like sand in an hourglass.
H, I think you’ve been bold and outspoken. As it happens, I agree with you. I lived there for eight years and I think the victim culture is common. Further, LFC has not covered itself in glory with its response to the gerbil’s stupidity. Keep being the conscience of Spurs fans.
They’ve turned “victim culture” into an industry up there.
“Gissa job. I can do that. I can be a victim”
Why dont you concentrate at yr small shity club. Yr mngr is a crook and yr club is nowhere and never will b as big as Liverpool. North London is shity area to live in as well
The benefits of classical education…
You beat me to that HH.
By two hours!
:unsure:
And the OP by seven minutes.
Didn’t your owners make there fortune in hedge-funds, The same people who’s fraudulent behaviour is implicate in world economy collapse. There the equivalent of modern day Al Capone’s but instead of henchmen & guns they have lobyits & credit cards.
Hedge fund managers are an abomination on society & have cost the tax- payer’s a lot more than harry is being accused of.
At least if Harry is found quilty we won’t start wearing ridiculous T-shirts that would bring shame on our club
What was that late 70’s song by Jilted John called? Oh yes, that’s it- ‘Bekim is a moron’.
O dear shell suits,murders(juve fans) Nazis,car removal contractors,work escapist,the women are buck bags.I could go on the hole town is counterfeit “
in fact even the beatles founded their early rise to fame by ripping of Rnb black artists and doing cover versions as did most cavern dwellers.
You should be embarrassed by this article
Feel free to expand on this in your own time.
What is this? Spurs have a good side but you are so far behind us in terms of support and trophies it’s laughable! You have won fewer league titles than Huddersfield Town, that is how big Spurs are. You also burned your own town last summer. Finally, I really hope to God Spurs never have their own Hillsborough.
If you are a youngster (younger than about 23) then you clearly still have a lot of growing up to do. If you are older than that then you are clearly a man of below average intelligence. Either way, your opinion is worthless.
CLICKY
Does it really matter to you that you are a “bigger” club than Spurs or anyone else ? Were I a Liverpool supporter I would be proud of what you had won rather than how “big” the club might be. What does it mean anyway ?
What is how big a club is based on ? The number of supporters the size of the stadium the world wide fan base ? It’s a tedious argument.
Liverpool FC are a big name in English football because of what they’ve won and may I say the way that they won not because they are a bigger club than us or anyone else.
Oh dear I am always very sceptical when so called supporters starting using the history tag,to embellish their rather moot points.It seems to smack of that’s why I support them really,as I am really nothing but a glory hunter.You carry on Dave telling us how big your club is as it might deflect us from seeing how small your brain is!!
@Dave
Thanks for reminding us about your victimisation at Hillsborough. You are right in hoping that we never have our own Hillsborough. Let’s hope we don’t have our own Heysel too.
As for Huddersfield, that was over 80 years ago, and for all that, I’ll bet that Huddersfield would like to be where we are now. Come to think of it, I bet you would like to be where we are now.
Football is one of those jobs (in case you don’t know what a “job” is, a dictionary will explain it) where you are only as good as your last days work) and your work for the past three seasons has been pretty shoddy.
Over the last 18 months, I have watched your most famous fan “ifonly” spout the following. “If only we had a decent manager, we would be great again”.
Along comes Hodgson. If only we had some new players. Along comes Konschesky (for £5 mill – even DL wouldn’t have the gall for that). If only we had new owners. Along come a new set of yanks. If only we had a decent manager. Along comes Dalglish. If only we had some new players. Along comes Suarez and Carroll (£30 mill for Carroll was an even greater rip-off than the money you paid for Konchesky).
In spite of all the “ifonlys” you are starting to sink into mediocrity even though you spent more on two players than the entire cost of our first choice starting eleven.
It appears to me that the future for your supporters is one of living in the past. I can understand you r frustration, because right now, we are the future.
:-D
Praise indeed. I thank you
….never trust a whining scouser, no more than those double-dealing Yorkists :-) Give me the red rose over the white, better still move Hadrian’s wall south to Watford Gap……….
No matter what a scouser says, who says it, or indeed what they speak about; they always sound like they are whining. Whine, whine, whine, whine.
