They are top of the 2015 league table, Rob. Who needs the August-May league when you can be top of the January to March league? If there weren't a massive conspiracy the league would run in the calendar year, and then everyone would see that Liverpool were the best. If there weren't a conspiracy, shots that hit the post/bar would count as goals, or the goals would be bigger, and then everyone would see that Liverpool were the best. If there weren't a conspiracy, finishing 8th would be rightfully rewarded with a CL spot, and then Liverpool would win the CL with ease. Everyone knows the only reason Liverpool didn't win the CL, and only managed to win one group game, at home, with a late penalty, against some dodgy Bulgarian side, is because Brendan Rodgers, being the tactical master he is, had to concentrate on the league so that they could get into the top 4 to again qualify for a CL that they weren't going to win because they'd have to focus on finishing top 4 to qualify for the CL. Again.
And it's clearly a massive conspiracy that Skrtel got banned for an obvious stamp on De Gea when Rooney didn't even get a ban for being pushed, by Skrtel, into Mignolet. Also, how do you explain that Herrera, who's Spanish, got stamped on by Gerrard, who isn't Spanish, and then De Gea, who's also Spanish, got 'stamped' on by Skrtel, who isn't Spanish, and Mata, who's also Spanish, scored both goals that made Liverpool, who aren't Spanish, lose, are all Spanish? And that Sterling, who isn't Spanish, might move to Real Madrid, who are Spanish? And that Sanchez, who moved from Barca, who are Spanish, chose not to go to Liverpool, who aren't Spanish, but chose to go to Arsenal, who are managed by a Frenchman, which is exactly what Michel Platini, head of UEFA is? And then how do you explain that Liverpool, greatest side in European history, get knocked out of the UEFA Champions League in the group stage? And how do you explain that Sir Alex Ferguson, the perpetrator of this conspiracy, is an anagram of "Señor Fix Resulag" which is almost "Señor Fix Results" which is clearly what he is called in, you guessed it, Spain. His name literally tells us that he fixes results, and no one does anything about it.

noticed Robbie Fowler on Goals on Sunday peddling the 'Liverpool fans are the most knowledgeable in the world' line today. When did this happen, was there an IQ test?

They're not even the most knowledgeable in Liverpool, ffs.noticed Robbie Fowler on Goals on Sunday peddling the 'Liverpool fans are the most knowledgeable in the world' line today. When did this happen, was there an IQ test?

Imprison the fans. Good idea.
Double whammy with him and Rush, they play well to the gallery though.
Bad tasteNot just that, they want to imprison unhappy fans.
Can't imagine what a few thousand of those pushing and shoving would result in...
top of the alternative league, calendar year league and pub quiz league now thenI really do hate that myth. I'd like to know who came up with it. It's never even debated or discussed, people just accept it.
They have this weird culture there and their managers spent a great deal of time promoting some of those ridiculous myths to get the crowd on side.

We almost had this team:
Pepe
Arbeloa
Hyypia <---- Sami gets the blame for trying to spanner this up, as he's 36 @ the arrival of Gnasher
Carra
Enrique
Alonso
Gerrard
Garcia
Mascherano
Torres
Suarez
manager: Rafa or Kenny
The rest of that side is totally plausible though, with Skrtel, Lucas, Kuyt, Aurelio, Johnson, Maxi and Yossi all potentially available too, and Flanno and Sterling just coming through then. Who knows what we might have achieved with that squad
I've taken the plunge & registered over there
RAWK said:An Error Has Occurred!
I've been trying to register for a few weeks now but I'm keep getting this message:
An Error Has Occurred!
I've taken the plunge & registered over there, mainly because I have a shrine in my garage dedicated to the tactical insights of Phase of Play and a framed copy of Andy@Allerton's last post in the front hall. Obv, I'm a bit nervous, and have been up all night drafting & redrafting a possible 1st contribution. I don't want to be called an 'arl woolly-arse or exhibit any momentary lapse of disloyalty straightaway.
''Really grateful to the club for finding myself padlocked to my seat during yesterdays charity game which we won 2-2 , net spend for the day was very reasonable, and there was no sign of that big red crow which might.. have ruined everything, had I not blindfolded the kids as a precaution,. Anyway, I finally got around to considering everything at very great length; and with as much sense as Howard Webb would make looking for a barbers, and with as many ridiculous metaphors as possible, this new slant on the Sky, Mourinho, WealdstoneRaider, UEFA, Clive Tyldesley, Football Association, Glen Johnson and Premier League PLOT we are most definitely not at all overly obsessed with. It's a lot like what Confucius said in around 500 BC, in his discourse on the functions of the State, and how organisations defer to having ethical principles which are founded on those which best suit the primary unit. It should be fecking US!! then? shouldn't it?
Anyway, I reckon the glorious new theory all explains why a furious Rafael Benitez was so keane (what a dirty bastard he was, btw - so glad, I'm unaware our lads never done nothing like that) to always & hilariously refer to SAF as 'Meester Ferguson'. I reckon Rafa wouldn't have wanted to accidentally say 'Senor Fix' for fear of appearing like a bumbling Forrin fool spouting bitter old bollocks. Or, he was way too 'umble & unassuming to provide full disclosure to the hostile print & television vultures who have never ever warmed to the scandalously-officiated, repeatedly done-over, feisty but virtually penniless underdogs of the Football Club of Liverpool. Or those fecking cancers might have threatened to replace him with a top top English Manager if he didn't surrender, cos he had to, Rafa himself would never surrender obv, or Kenny for that matter especially not to this clandestine axis of institutionalized bare-faced cheatyness we have identified. I miss Rafa, even though we've had 2 top top proper Redmen bosses and the useless Owl since (I blame the Hodge-Podge for single-handedly stopping us never winning the league in 24 years, he does look a bit like a Timelord regeneration gone all wrong does that bloke, so it's well possible in reality, too). It's getting emotional typing this tbh and I'm going to be starting wellin' up now, I am. So, whoever, we play next, let's twat the twatty twats until they've been twatting twatted into particles so small they'd confuse a theoretical physicist with a brain the size of Wales. And finally, if anyone fancies a loan of my 1986 Subbuteo 4 Times edition for a bit, Mrs M is trying to have me throw it out because she trod on Alan Kennedy''
Why bother, though
so
it's like Andy Carroll never existed, innit
Whatever happened to A@A? Did he get banned or just implode?
EDIT: He managed three tweets before getting bored it seems. Sample below.

Hello there everybody. Thought it was about time I started twatering. Follow me now for my thoughts on currys,Liverpool and the corrupt FA .
No cuz that would imply that the fault lies at their end. But all of us know that it's never their fault.isnt this simply the club's motto?
I wouldn't be surprised. Just realised I hadn't heard his name in years. He used to be quoted in here all of the time. Am sure there are plenty of other paranoid weirdos to step into his shoes.I think he's probably ended it all after last years wonderful climax to the season.
How long did he last?He used to be a member here.
Imprison the fans. Good idea.
So given that they are so close in minutes per goal, we then have to go to efficiency,
.....Lambert plays like a proper centre forward, and his numbers back that up.
How long did he last?
