ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 2

[Khalekan]

So, Reds think they deserve it more than Spurs?

Spurs, came out of a group that included Barcelona, Inter Milan, and PSV Eindhoven (OK, PSV are gash) Spuds lost 2 games

RS PSG, Napoli (plop) Crvena Zvezda (who even are they?) RS lost 3 games

Spuds go past Dortmund and Man City, as RS knock out Bayern (worst side they have had in years), Porto (Ha Ha Ha nailed on easiest draw)

Semi, give RS credit for comeback against Barcelona, but not even on the same scale as Spurs comeback. 3 down away from home with 40 minutes remaining. Grab winner with last kick of game. Nothing to compare, Spuds by a mile

So, Spuds deserve it more in my book and I hope they go on to win it for that very reason, and for the reason that I hate the RS.

You probably know Crvena Zvezda better as Red Star Belgrade.

Does that mean they've won yet another trophy?

Without sounding crass, the pronunciation because of vernacular English doesn't change how it should be written.

It is based on whether the word, in Queen's English, begins with a stressed or unstressed sound. An umbrella has a stressed vowel, while unicorn is unstressed.

Stressed or unstressed being whether it is the letter name that is stressed or the typical sound - if you’ve got kids, phonics.


FBI is 'F' letter sound (stressed) while field has an unstressed sound.

That one seems to have gone over your head Phil, I'd sooner go to a field rather than an field.

Yiu can see how keyed up they all are. The players will be the same, massive adrenaline dump. They're going to emotionally exhausted by the time the final comes round, its still another ten days away.

Spurs have got this.

There's a massive psychological pressure they've got to handle. Losing the league is a huge blow and they've got to get over that plus they're now under intense pressure to win a trophy. We've seen what Klopp's like under pressure in a final, I think Spurs will beat them.

As I said I think it has more to do with how the word sounds so if you pronounce Hotel as 'Otel then it would be An Hotel same with Historic pronounced 'Istoric would be An Historic. University would be 'A university', an university just doesn't sound right.

I call a hotel a hotel. An historical even may be read about in a history book though.

Weird englandisms

 

[roydo]

Never ever rely on Spurs.

THE first rule of football.

It's 'a historical event' if one pronounces the 'H' as one is supposed to do.

 

[DanB90]

Looks very much like financial doping to me.

I thought that was never rely on Everton

 

[jaycee]

This is just 1 reason I hate them

Rarely has a surname been so appropriate.

All depends I reckon “an historical event occurred on this spot long ago”.... apples and oranges

FFS, make it stop.

I am beginning to think the Echo is on the wind up here....it is the only rational explanation to their increasingly absurd articles re the TS.
