I travel pretty much constantly for work and outside of brexit infested UK towns, the announcement of where I am from has only ever been met with positivity. The rs however are consistently met with contempt by followers of football, you are talking hogwash and it all looks very very transparent
to your face maybe. doesnt mean they arent cracking jokes about you being a thief or your accent. i wouldnt go as far to say we're universally disliked, and there are plenty of people that have a fondness for the city, but there defo some truth to what he said. away fans sing the same stuff about scousers to us they do to them. popular name for liverpool fans across forums is 'bin dippers' and its purely based on the fact there from liverpool.
 
Sick of hearing Blues saying they want City to beat us. Is that really what we’ve become? It’s unbelievably small-time.
Maybe there is no value in the market.

Chelsea (Higuain loan & 1.17 billion debt) Spurs ( £1 billion stadium debt) United (£500 million debt) didn't strengthen and Arsenal Got Dennis Suarez only loan, and city state owned didn't even buy anyone for the first time in January since they got Sheikh Mansour.

This has to be the slowest and lowest monetary January window on record home and abroad.

None of the big clubs on the continent bought anyone, what does that say @Steve0

That says to me Summer is going to be a big one with all those clubs i named going on huge splurges, top 4 race is stronger than ever now and those clubs are miles away from the rest of the PL on and off the pitch, they are in a different market for players who are top level and top teams don't sell their best players in January with CL last 16 on the horizon.

Chelsea bought Pulisic for nearly £60m you horrible kopite goblin

Good post. Yeah, on reflection, “universally disliked” was a bit of an exaggeration, but there are plenty of people who dislike us, plenty of whom have never even been to Liverpool.

What goes on in a tribal atmosphere is not indicative of the individuals you will meet, I've doing what I do a long time and am perfectly capable of recognizing sincerity thank you very much, it's one of the reasons that its so easy to tell that zartan is a compete fraud
 
Care to give examples?

I, too, have travelled all over the country. I’ve lived in various places, some nice, some not so nice. I’ve heard all the tired old cliches and ‘jokes’ - hubcaps, car stereos, work-shy, etc.
I'm not going to list the countries, cities and counties I travel to you dull troll, I will simply tell you how wrong your assessment is in my experience, and how obvious a ploy it is

Likewise, I will simply tell you how wrong your assessment is in my experience. Ploy? Give over, mate. Dare to go against the grain and I’m called a troll and RS - lovely!
 

The difference is, United fans would prefer City, a Mancunian team, to win the league. Whereas, plenty of Scouse Blues would give their left nut to see a Mancunian team win it. I don’t subscribe to this way of thinking at all. As an older fella, I remember when blues and reds got on with one another and much preferred it that way.
The real difference is that City winning the league still leaves them miles behind United's trophy haul. So they still don't feel inferior and, just as relevant, are still competitive.

We, OTOH, are having to take up both ends.. Their success and our failings.
