- Thread starter Pexbo
- Start date
For another 20 years. Yes it will be pleasant for us United fans too.
I like how he clarifies who their manager, Brendan Rodgers is.That's Liverpool manager, Brendan Rodgers in case anyone forgets.
Oh, I think you'll manage that no problem.
Hmmm..... I make a prediction right now.
We will win the freckin champions league and finish 7th or 8th in the BPL....
Quote me on that
Quoted, Sir.
Have a beer and read the reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars The Liverpool Football Club experience encapsulated in literary form.
"Football? Bloody hell!", as Bill Shankly once said.
By the final chapter of this book I was kneeling on the floor of my living room, floods of tears pattering onto my replica kit, wailing like a hysterical gibbon. My dogs, Rushie and Aldo, wailed in solidarity with me. They understood; my wife didn't. I felled her with a right hook.
Holy s**t it's an actual book?!
Excellent analysis ya loon!
"Anyone blaming the centre backs is genuinely clueless about football.
Lets put it this way..
A top team would normally have to deal with around 30-40 attacks per game. We have to deal with around 80-90.
That means the opposition is getting to our defence twice as often as they should. Therefore they are twice as liable to be beaten. That is not the defenders fault, it is a fault of the midfielders (one in particular) and the system being used.
Personally thought Lovren and Sakho played very well today. Skrtel not so much but seeing as he has been injured then he has an excuse."
90 attacks per game?! That's one a minute!
Right, so this Brentie character on RAWK who is going round saying "I told you so", appears to be a total mentalist (shocking news, I know). He has a blog. It's full of the usual Man United conspiracy nonsense, but there's also an entry where he compares some of the clubs in the Prem with religious sects. I shit you not. Here it is in all its insane glory:
Christian Maronites- Liverpool Football Club
Rich history, always been present at the highest echelons of the game. Very attached to past legends. Deify ex managers.
Hugely influential in the 70s and 80s, where they went through triumphs and tragedies but been largely marginalized since 1990.
Returned in force on the world stage in 2005, but comebacks of past legends have not managed to bring back the glory days. Finding it hard to accept they may never reach the heights they did before. Going with youth now.
Recent history blighted by infighting.
Sunnis- Manchester United
Always present with big, huge numbers of followers. But only really dominated the local scene since the early 90s.
Blamed by many for having corrupted the local arena, credited by others for having revolutionized the modern game.
Have had the most wealth for the last 2 decades, but events since 2005 have weakened the purse strings. Currently rumored to be in debt.
Current owner considered to be risking his life if he ever comes back to Old Trafford. Have looked nervously at their noisy neighbors for a few years now who have recently surpassed them.
February is seen as a very dark month in their history, due to a tragedy which is remembered annually.
Druzes- Arsenal
While having a rich history themselves, never reached the heights or numbers of Sunnis or Christians- certainly not abroad.
Despite this, they’ve always been relevant and decisive on the local scene. Led by a cult like figure whose capacity to keep his club relevant despite their lack of numbers is admired by many.
Haven’t had real success for a while.
Shiites- Chelsea
Despite claims to the contrary, have always been present on the local scene- though never having the numbers to show it.
Only really made it big in the last decade. Known worldwide now but are often ridiculed for their lack of history compared to their rivals- though have been more succesful than bigger clubs in the last few years.
While supposedly having several decision makers, only one (bearded) man really holds the power. Are largely financed by money coming from the East. Despite often seen as being in turmoil, regularly achieve success.
Hold the longest undefeated streak at home in the game. Defence was near impregnable around 2005/06. Constantly strengthen their attacking arsenal much to the dismay and anger of their rivals.
Christian Orthodox- Everton
Few can compare with their history, but have struggled for a long time now. The Christian Maronites’ ugly sister.
Seem to be a tad more relevant nowadays but still a long way away from being decision makers on the local and international scene.
Copts- Fulham
Led by an Egyptian. They exist.
Apparently.
The only inoffensive sect out there. This is probably due to the fact that no-one has actually noticed they exist.
Jews- Stoke
Founding members of the football league. Been around for ages, since the genesis of professional football. Known for their unmerciful and unrelenting attacks from air and ground, bombing the opposing team back to the stone ages.
Owned by a man who made fortunes in the legalised gambling industry.
Spend their time bullying and using every dirty trick in the book to gain an edge on their rivals; are then incredulous with self rightheous indignation when said rivals react to their provocation.
Not liked by many. They don’t care.
Local presence nigh on invisible.
Allawites- Aston Villa
Rich in history- never been more in danger of ruin though.
Current leader (who studied his trade in Europe), came into power under a wave of pomp and cicumstance with near unanimous backing from all key stakeholders.
At present , however, fans are said to be very much 50-50 as to whether he's the right man to lead them anymore.
Infighting between supporters a well reported theme at Villa Park.

What is that shit? Man. Liverpool supporters are really different breed.
I like how we are rumoured to be in debt
Wow, a lot of racism in that blog. Deluded.
I think some of them are over reacting. They will clearly hit form and pick up wins at some point. It's just that they were they were under the impression they were going to steam roller the league this year that makes things hilarious. They are battling for top 4 again, they should have accepted that when Suarez left and the best they could get in was Balotelli. They strengthened with some decent squad players but it was ignorant to think they could match last season without at least one World Class player in.
Still a long way to go about I bet a lot of them are getting nervous about finishing below us.

90 attacks per game
Quality Seriously though is there someone out there that actually told him that hair looks good ? Surely not, it's probably the worst hairstyle on a bloke I've ever seen. Hell even a woman wouldn't have her hair like that.
. A lot of pool fans I know were expecting a title challenge
They lost 6 games last season.
They've played 5 games this year and lost 3
Again, they are placing too much emphasis on fell walking on not enough on football.
It's no wonder Gerrard looked fecked yesterday.
I don't think I've ever seen fans so full of shit after one good season and what makes it worse is they didn't even win the fecking thing, this is the reason I'm enjoying their failure so so so sooooo much! Had they not went on like they won the league before it ended and were humble enough going into this season then we may laugh at their results a bit because we're rivals but because the shit they've been spouting over the past year this is way too enjoyable at the moment!
Has to have lost a bet.

Look at him.
"Loosing the fecking game, looking like this, cnut Sky will probably catch me too, forgot to sign on yesterday, fecking week..... never playing poker again."
They.Are.Liverpool.
We.Are.Laughing.
We.Are.Laughing.
One of 'em is doubly unimpressed. He says that they have the most expensive defence ever assembled. Would have quoted this, but still a bit disbelieving of its factual basis, tbh. Lovren/Sakho, £ 20m apiece?
I believe it's the most expensive defence that Liverpool have ever had.
PSG surely have the most expensive now?
Liverpool have the most expensive defence that is absolute dog-shit, though
Liverpool have the most expensive defence that is absolute dog-shit, though
It probably won't, tbh.
It's war in reviews on the Amazon.
So where do we see them finishing up this season?
I honestly don't see them coming above 6th. I think it's going to be an absolute disaster.

Wow. Just wow.
Should we even laugh at this ?

I love the RAWK meltdown thread as much as any Utd fan, but I am uncomfortable with singling out any opposition match going fan with a screenshot and then photoshopping said screenshot. Not everyone conforms to people's perceived norm, but to innocently go to a football match then return home to find your photo ridiculed all over the internet doesn't sit well with me.

Good lord.
Fecking hell. Jamie Carragher looked knackered just taking his trackies off whenever he was subbed on towards the end of his career, in which he was an average player at best. If he can genuinely improve their defence, I'd be worried.
I like the last sentence. "They dared to dream again" as though they aspire to finish second, again.
Agree.
Yep, I agree with that. It's not right.
All these posts detailing their issues, are the people making them getting banned or are they actually discussing it like normal people?
Oh, well. It was nice while it lasted.
Let's watch our own meltdown now.
