RAWK Goes into Meltdown 2014/2015 - The "We go again" Edition

No players threads, no match threads and locked threads whenever someone posts negative things about Liverpool players. And bans for non-conformists.
The question is: are they more blinkered than those "otherkin" people who think they have the spirits of different animals instead of human spirits?

They are "otherkin" in their own way over there..
 
Decision made by the 'Rawk Towers' as in Lord of the Rings?

Explains a few things...
:lol: The mods referring to decisions coming from 'the tower' says a lot about the way that forum is run.
 
There's (quite a lot) more where this came from

American Pi-pe Dream

A long, long time ago
I can still remember
How that football used to make me smile.
And I knew if they had their chance
They'd lead us all a merry dance
And, maybe, they’d make money for a while.

And February made me shiver
With every paper I’d deliver
Bad news on the doorstep;
Game 39 takes one more step.

I can’t remember if I cried
When Scudamore tossed our dreams aside,
But something touched me deep inside
The day that football died.

And they were singing,
Bye Bye Setanta and Sky,

.....................................................

And the 3 men I admired most,
Carra, Dalglish and Shankly's ghost,

It's quality poetry from a paperboy.
 
I went over to RAWK to see the hilarious in-fighting that exists in the player threads and they are all locked :lol:. Who is/are the dictator(s) that run that place? You can't even discuss the players that play for your team? Ridiculous.
 
The individual player threads were so full of whoppers having pointless arguments and being disloyal, that their poor old mods had almost given up on reading the threads due to it being not nice for them or something.

The bosses decided that this was not boss and here we are, barring them resigning Paul Konchesky or Joe Cole.

There's a thread on RAWK about the atmosphere at Anfield and how it needs to be improved. Anybody regularly watch Liverpool? If so, what do you make of it? It seemed awful against Middlesbrough, although a midweek League Cup game isn't the best game to gauge how it is on average.

I'm sure it will be intense against Madrid and we'll here the usual nonsense about how special the atmosphere is there. Sadly, Liverpool are far from being alone. It'd be interesting to hear from other fans what they think about their clubs' atmospheres.

The famous Liverpool atmosphere is one of the biggest myths in Premiership history. In fairness during their last CL campaign the atmosphere pre match looked and sounded good but dies down to near silent during the match. That's how it seemed on TV anyway.

The dippers are susceptible to lulls in atmosphere due probably to their own prawn sandwich brigade just as much as the bigger clubs in the PL.

Well, considering Ludogorets outsung them at their own stadium, I guess they don't have much atmosphere. And really, whenever I catch Liverpool playing at Anfield (or anywhere else for that matter) it's as silent as a graveyard.
 
Two months in and poor Raheem Sterling is too tired to play for his country :( the uproar over it is hilarious, the RAWK Meltdown Twitter feed is a goldmine, but come the fcuk on, yeah, Roy Hodgeson is a dreadful manager but where the hell does a 19 year elite athlete get off saying he's too tired to play? The season is not two months old and poor little Raheem is "too tired".

Must be all the riding he's doing, how many kids has he got? 6 or 7? And he's only 19!
 
I think it's understandable Sterling is tired, Rodgers has managed him poorly so far this season.

The "famous Anfield atmosphere" is just one of those things they flatter themselves with even though it's not really there. It's like how they're the most knowledgable fans in the world, or how all players who leave Liverpool remain lifelong fans. Usual prentetious koppite narcissism and self-glorification.

Unless he was carrying a knock, I don't think he was tired. Danny Mills sums it up for me.

"The final ball wasn't good enough. Is Wayne Rooney still our best player, and why is it we seem to struggle against these so-called lesser nations?

"As far as Raheem Sterling, I'd want to play every international game I could at this stage. I don't really believe a player his age will have gone to the manager and told him he's tired. Has there been influence from elsewhere? The club manager, for example? Who knows."
 
I am a little surprised that no one has spoken about this being an influenced excuse.
I feel that Rodgers must have asked Sterling to take a break, if possible. I am surprised that this is not being talked about.
Even if this is true, I don't think Liverpool deserves any stick cause of it.
 
Nothing yet about the club potentially selling names rights to the new stand? Should go down well.
Can't see why many would have an issue with that. The stand needs to be paid for and selling the naming rights is better than raising the price of tickets.
 
Unless he was carrying a knock, I don't think he was tired. Danny Mills sums it up for me.
Yeah, Rodgers could well have said something to him but I still think it's clear that Sterling is struggling a bit from tiredness, just look at his recent performances.
 
It's impossible for Sterling to have a bad game over at RAWK. When he does it's either Brentan or Roy's fault for making him tired. He's been tired for a whole month now it seems.
