I'll just leave that there...

What is this absolute abomination

....went for my Racing Post this morning and 2 women were in conversation;

Woman 1; “getting me flag and banner for me house today. Did you see that homecoming parade for City?”

Woman 2: “ye, there was nobody there. That’s because their support is from all over, they’re not like us, we’re all proper scousers”.

Women 1:”and they’re being reported for racism”.

Just caught a snippet of John Barnes on Talk Sport, he had me in tears. Went something along the lines of 'even if Tottenham beat them in Madrid, while they wont have won a trophy, what an incredible journey they've had. Trophies are just for fans, everyone at the club will know it's been the best season ever for Liverpool!'
Yes John, better than the treble winning seasons of Paisley and Benitez etc. Winning nothing with 97 points is hurting them badly, they'll bang on about it for years.

Yes but good to know Barnes have a small club mentality. Big clubs do not consider this type of season a success.

If everton had a point for every gash player they'd sent out on loan, we'd have won it.

Or teams with the most captains. Haven't we had 4-5 different ones this season? Baines, Jags, Davies, Coleman and whoever it was against Burnley.

Tony Evans article misses the target by some distance. Collectively I think they’ve lost it big time. Scraping the barrel with this comment: “A generation of Evertonians has grown up to believe that the Heysel stadium disaster ended their team’s hopes of being one of England’s dominant clubs.”

Opinion | Can Liverpool ever escape its past? Rivals ramp-up stereotypes of the club, and the city

Manchester City staff are recorded singing an offensive song after their title win and offer a tone-deaf justification as vitriol for the club, and the city, is heightened during a successful period

I don’t want either to leave. They’re both playing at their absolute max, they can’t get any better, it’s more likely that they won’t have as good a season next year. Salah has already failed to hit the heights of last season.

I want their big players to get stuck on mega contracts with Liverpool unable to shift them on. As soon as either of them lose a yard of pace they’ll be practically worthless. What we dont want is for what happened with Coutinho where they got a huge fee for him and got to reinvest it in first team players.

We need this team to keep missing out and get to a scenario where the owners can’t afford to buy without selling a mega star but the stars have declined to the point no one wants them for big money.

Added to that their season is 3 weeks longer tha everybody else and they're both off to the African cup of nations with both expected to go deep, the final is only two or three weeks before the start of the season.

Worrying times.

For article that wants to dispel the 'myth' of the victimhood its not doing a good job.

But this is horrendous.

When Liverpool scored a late goal to beat Newcastle United this month the word “Hillsborough” trended on Twitter

Does he really think this was because of opposing fans and not mawkish try hard reds writing stuff like 'that's for the 96 angels'.

A fairly revolting article from start to finish for so many reasons.

They proper embarrass this city don't they? Does my head in.

"A generation of Evertonians has grown up to believe that them winning the league in 1985 would have qualified them for the European Cup in the season that followed"

Trouble is, you just can't argue with followers of the rs.
Most other fans can accept things as they are and can hold together a cogent discussion.
But the rs? Truly a different species altogether.
