It says something about a club when they celebrate a meaningless game at the end of the season. We'll just look back on those 5 European Cups and 18 league titles then. If ever there was motivation to win a match it would be to wipe the smiles off their crooked, inbred faces. Form is temporary, class is permanent, let's twat these freaks.
Class, dignity etc
"Form is temporary"
For feck's sake, the irony.He kind of has a point tbf.
Yup the state of the league in 13/14 was quite temporary.
Argh, you got your post in ahead of me. Was talking about the mildly amusing 6-1 scarf!
Edit: Wrong thread.
Now that's art.
...
Their players were certainly celebrating like they had just won the league. Or, in their case, celebrating that they've almost won the league (days before they feck everything up).
First game of the season and that's a sign of champions?
Is it their year again la?

Yes. Winning when you play badly. But when we do it it means we're jammy.
Quite a meltdown.
Liverpool won. 
But of course.
Appropriate tagline.
not worried about liverpool at all. even in the last time when I was genuinely worried about them (13/14) they managed to feck up in such a glorious fashion.
Didn't United fans on here spend 3/4 of that season saying they'd drop out the top 4 eventually? Not suggesting another title tilt necessarily but it is the default position on here to call Liverpool average.
They were average in the first game. So were we. Both were lucky to win.
What's happening at Rawk? Are they already celebrating the title after the stoke win?
League winning t-shirts are being ordered I guess.
This result will be doing wonders for their Alternative Premier League standings too. Title race is already over. Close the forum guys we might as well all go home.
13/14 was a close shave and no mistake
Only league winning t shirts? More like quadruple winning t shirts.
Top of the League
I don't understand, what even is that?
No matter how many times I read that, I can't fecking understand it. How?
OK, it's a bit like golf - with 38 holes / games. So these are 'par'scores.
Over the 38, there are 3 kinds of game - 3 pts expected, 1 pt expected, 0 pts expected. So you can hopefully work that out for this weekend. Arsenal expected to beat West ham but lost = -3 to par. Utd are level par cos we won but were expected to do so. It's dead easy when you know

Wait, so they expected to only get one point against Stoke. And this is the sign of champions?!
I think it's the peterstorey table. They're comparing it with the results last year.
5 point net swing on Arsenal, 4 on Chelsea and 2 on us. They've just guaranteed a CL spot with that result. If they win their next two games they will probably get automatic qualification, a 5 game win streak at this point of the season will pretty much win them the league. It could all be done and dusted by mid September.
The way the table works is that you're expected to win every game at home, lose to the top 6/7 away, draw to the middle 6/7 and win against the bottom 6/7. I think.
Yeah, I think you're right. Altho, I somehow got thinking they didn't have draws at one time. Or they come up so infrequently I gotten confused
.How can we be on 0 and Spurs on -1? So Spurs are expected to draw with us and we're expected to beat them? That makes no sense.
Liverpools big problem going forward is its going to be so difficult to actually make an impact in the CL even if they qualify. They will be unseeded in the CL qualifying if they finish 4th and if they somehow made the group stage by finish 3rd or better(or winning a qualifying round) they would end up in Pot 4 as things stand. Its a long road back for them to be regulars in the knockout stages of the CL-where all "big" clubs want to be.
