I didn't say there was anything wrong. Did you read my post?
Yes, I wasn't questioning your comments. Ignore the ? I guess.

Origi looked very good on World Cup (haven't seen him before) but I think that you need someone who is ready to replace Suarez immediately, not someone who needs time to develop. I think that on Sterling and Coutinho you have two fantastic talents, but you need some experience there (together with Sturridge). Sanchez would obviously be ideal, but I don't know if you can get him. Shaqiri would also be a very good signing and won't cost that much. I have the same reservation for Markovic as for Orini, talented player but won't be the solution immediately.Lovren, Moreno, Origi and 2 of Sanchez, Markovic and Shaqiri.
Origi looks to be done. The names may be swapped before it's all over, but I think it will be the same numbers and player profiles we'll be looking at getting in.
I've been welcomed to RAWK and there are plenty of United supporters there.This is the one thing I don't understand, why anyone would want to post on a rival's fan site. Although to be honest they are actually allowed to post pretty much anything while I can't see that being welcomed on RAWK for instance
Out of interest, are any United fans allowed to post on RAWK?
I am not having a dig, btw, I think it is good to have rival fans on here to give some balance.
Unlikely. With Suarez gone the party is over.
I think you will find its you who worry's too much about United. You don't find me posting on one of your horrible fan boards.
thats a good idea, his Champions League Experience would be invaluable and even though going off what i've read on here alot of people seem to be saying you'll be out early I actually think you'll do pretty well, if you get someone like Cole in you could make Quarter Finals. But my one worry would be lack of experience at the back in the Big games

Still on Lovren and Moreno you will considerably improve your defense. The weak point will be Johnson, but Sakho, Lovren and Moreno are pretty good.

Yep, I am a part time RAWKite and there are a few United supporters there. It isn't near as bad as the legends say.

I gave up worrying about United after their 7th or 8th Premier title. I simply enjoy engaging with United fans on Liverpool related topics. We got a good glimpse last season of what will happen on here though should Liverpool do the unthinkable & eventually end our long wait for a league title. It bordered on suicidal. We've been through a 20 year pain barrier. Question is, how will you handle it should you go a while without winning a title ?
Yeah, the only problem is that they don't have a newbie system to filter shit posters which results with some posters to try to prove that they are good posters by posting shit nonsense against United. However, with the relaxed newbie system redcafe will probably have the same problem on the near future.Most Liverpool/United banter on there is decent, and there are a lot of good posters on RAWK. As ever sensible debate depends on the quality of the posters, on both sides.
Yup. Some very bad ones either on 9 likes or have been promoted recently.

Ah right, how many likes did it used to be to get promoted?Easier to get promoted.
How did you get promoted with 4 likes in 22,000 posts?Easier to get promoted.
No idea. One of the admins said recently that they were fast tracking people through promotion.Ah right, how many likes did it used to be to get promoted?
It is easier to get promoted these days. Before it was with 15 likes, now it is with 10 (obviously, you can get direct promotion without getting all those likes, but that was before too). These days you see a lot more posters getting promoted, and the 2014 generation on general has been very poor. You also see quite a few recently promoted posters getting banned soon after they get promotion. Also, before you rarely saw people getting promoted with only a couple of hundred posts or so, but now that has become the norm.How has it been relaxed?
Yeah, it keeps most of the bad posters outside of it and it prepares other posters what to expect here.Thought the newb system was a smart idea, definitely should be a equirement for many other forums I know of. But ultimately, I'm sure, it's harder to have a successful one these days since you can exercise your pleasure for verbal diarrhea throughout the web now
Actually, you may be the only one which I remember with username from 2014 posters and I think is a good poster.Yup. Some very bad ones either on 9 likes or have been promoted recently. Myself included
I have 4? Since when? I used to be in the minus.How did you get promoted with 4 likes in 22,000 posts?
Thanks, although I think that may be due to the low standards people have for the 2014 promoted posters .It is easier to get promoted these days.

I'm fine when I don't have to hear the accentI doubt anyone as bitter & twisted as you would survive long on a Liverpool forum. But there are a lot of people on both sides of the fence who can debate without spewing bile & vitriol when it comes to discussing the opposition.
This is where discussion and debate just turns into prejudice.The Scouse accent is so bad. Everyone there just sounds common.

A Liverpool fan finding prejudice on a United board. I am sure this has come as a huge shock to you.This is where discussion and debate just turns into prejudice.
Go through all my posts. Never do I engage in gutter-based point scoring regarding stereotypes and prejudice.
I expect a certain level of antagonism towards Liverpool and the fan base but when the discussion gets moronic about accents it's moved from debate to obnoxious invective. It's also incredibly glib, which is my fault for engaging with such stupid commentary.
You could always, you know, leave?Go through all my posts. Never do I engage in gutter-based point scoring regarding stereotypes and prejudice.

We all could, but that's not really in the spirit of this or any quality forum, is it?You could always, you know, leave?
If I joined a forum and quickly discovered that the content was not to my liking, I would leave. Maybe that's just me.We all could, but that's not really in the spirit of this or any quality forum, is it?
I agree. But as the majority of content here is to my liking I feel no incentive to leave.If I joined a forum and quickly discovered that the content was not to my liking, I would leave. Maybe that's just me.
If Liverpool get £70 odd million for him then he can be roundly regarded as a fantastic signing given his initial fee and his level of performance and contribution to the development of players around him such as Sterling and Sturridge. I know the narrative on here veers towards deep rooted dislike, but if he played for your team and played like he did over the past two years I'm pretty sure United fans would view him similarly.Anyway, Suarez, huh. Club makes an ass of themselves defending him, costing Kenny his job, and now he goes and forces himself out. After trying to join Arse last year. What a scumbag.
He's just been player of the year and widely regarded as the league's best player. He couldn't have done more for Liverpool's unlikely title challenge. I hope more Liverpool players p*ss in my face in such a way.It is not irritating in the slightest. It is rather amusing, actually. The guy pisses in your face and you still won't say a bad word against him.
This stuff is primarily tribal and not to do with morals and how he has "treated" Liverpool - as if you care about such things.

I didn't see many United fans amused by Suarez's influence on Liverpool's form last season. In fact, the chief concern now (and the past year) seems to be that he leave Liverpool rather than how he behaves. The faux sanctimony is yawn-inducing.

I think my analysis is accurate quite frankly, which is why it suits my argument. If I didn't think that I wouldn't propagate such an argument.You need to learn to speak for yourself, and not conveniently assume things which - surprise, surprise - suit your argument. Not everyone here is rabidly anti-Liverpool; not everyone puts football rivalry first.
I do? Ok.So do I.
I find it funny that you worship him, irrespective of what he does. If I were in your position, I would hate him. I suppose that is where we differ.
