The whole problem with most Liverpool supporters is that they're not actually football supporters, they simply support Liverpool as an excuse to go the pub and suspiciously go the toilet every 10 minutes. They aren't that different from sports fans in America who wear jerseys, but have no knowledge of the sport. I've said it countless times, every time they get into a final or they play in a big game there is trouble, because they don't really have ay sense of camaraderie, that Everton fans have that we have learned going to the game.
The reality is the number of proper Liverpool supporters out there is only pretty small, I've only known a select handful of Liverpool fans who go the game, yet nearly all Everton fans you meet will have had season tickets and they actually know about football. If these people just said they weren't interested in football I'd have no problem, it's the fact they continually bleat about football when they don't know what they're talking about. Just go the pub, when they're on and listen to the braindead conversations going on. A personal favorite of mine was when Salah was fouled outside the box and the divvies next to me, couldn't understand why it wasn't a penalty. The trouble that occurred was highly predictable, I don't know why the police are pretending that they're surprised.
