ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

[MrGrumpy]

Up to now yeah. But the massive advantage Liverpool have been handed with home team support and other title chasers playing in front of no home fams will open up a big gap for that lot from this point...and maybe offer Everton a way of consolidating a top 5 tilt.

I’m amazed they have 2k season ticket holders in Liverpool unless there breaking Covid rules. I live in Liverpool and they have a lot of fans but non ever have a season ticket

They have ale house fans.

That's like telling me that Man City last season were the best team in England when they obviously weren't.

Any decent PL era this Liverpool team would struggle.

They weren’t, it’s why the RS won the league

That's what I said - they weren't. But anyone early in that season might have said to me (as you have with that lot) that they are treble winners and therefore have nothing to prove to be the best. But it wouldn't have made sense to call them the best.

Palace are a 'kin disgrace.

That Liverpool team cant be beating any team by that much. They just aren't good enough.

You did call 5 or 6 Dave

Uncle Woy and his rolling over for them is the biggest disgrace.

 

[cronullasharks]

Liverpool will win the league again 100%.

Posted by a kopite and a sly little like thrown in by another kopite. All swarming over here after a win you pathetic rats

 

[MrGrumpy]

The RS are clearly a very good team. The problem with them is they have no likeable factors, they cheat constantly and get away with it. It’s like watching 15 John Terry’s

An there manger is simply horrendous.
Mourinho might be a idiot sometimes but he has that likeable factor.

The season is null and void IMO. The moment you have crowds for one team and not others is the moment the integrity of the competition went out the window.

In normal times teams are punished by forcing them behind closed doors. That's obviously because the competitive advanage is lost for them. How can we not see a whole raft of closed door fixtures for most teams and none for a minority as anything other than an unfair competitive advantage?

It's like handing the home team a goal or more start.

As long as it helps us doesn’t bother me. However you are right, like allowing 1 team to have 12 players

 

[Alan Whittle]

Palace are a 'kin disgrace.

But not that often really.

 

[davek]

But not that often really.

A team that hands Spurs a tight game like last weeks and then that today. They clocked off. No question.

Downed tools after the third. Before that, if either an in form Benteke or Batshuayi is playing we convert a chance and it’s a different game.

 

[marsh]

Don't worry, Chelsea and Spurs will win the league.

We wish

Yeah I agree it just doesn’t feel right this year but that won’t stop me celebrating a win.

Similar to Bournemouth turning up at the Etihad keeping it tight and causing problems then getting punted for four at the Vitality whenever Liverpool turned up. Too many managers and players with a soft spot for them who are happy to clock off for a week.
