I dont think we'll see that. Those divvies put a lot of store in what that manager says, and he's thrown a protective arm around FSG.
They must be desperate to kill someone, but they wont go against Reichsfuehrer Klopp.

They only didn’t like the super league as it incurred a negative media reaction for them. If the media had supported it every one of them would have been all over it, they had no issues from a moral stand point on the good of the game in England. If they thought it would give them some bragging rights and media limelight they would have sold their grandmothers to join. That’s why their protests were pitiful because they actually weren’t against it. Same with their pundits like Carragher, he didn’t use his platform like Neville to condemn the super league, he used it to ensure that critics couldn’t have a pop at Liverpool ‘it’s the owners not the players or fans, remember Everton were part of it in 1992’ pure partisan hysterics reaction. That’s where most of their fans sat.
Airbrushing of Heysel - no protest
Suarez’s racism - no protest
Anfield residents run out their homes - no protest
Staff furloughed - no protest
Super league - barely a gathering
When Hick’s and Gillette stopped spending barely a few years after a title challenge and CL final - mass fan mobilisation
There’ll be more noise next season if FSG haven’t put them back at the top than there was when they tried to destroy English football.

What a terrible season for the Kopites:
No trophies
The realisation that the first title in 31 years was a flash in the pan
Their world class players turned out to be Championship class players
The Klopp Kidz that were meant to build a dynasty turned out to be duds
The rich club they support wanted to keep their riches by making the state pay their employees furlough money
The club they support proved themselves to be the creature of Toryism by trying to set up a scab league
They saw other club's fans take the fight against cxorruption while they underlined what frauds they are by backing their owners
This is the Kopites' annus horribilis.

Exactly right. Spot on that. They pick their fights and the ferocity comes when they can feel their club being left behind, NOT for any social issues or wider football industry reasons.
Carragher: it will live long in the memory how he (on that MNF show a couple of weeks back) tried to twist Klopp's attack on those protesting the scab euro league and FSG into its complete opposite: an attack on the euro scab league. It was pitiful and desperate, and Neville should have called it out at the time.
Klopp and Henderson will not come out of this well eventually. They put a protective cloak around billionaires and everyone knows it.
Super league scab fans - Moral crusaders ?
No, looking after number one at any cost.
Liverpool - self entitled fanbase with owners who cream the brand-name and fans who have no moral stance on how success is achieved (as long as it is).
Man U - self entitled fanbase with owners who cream the brand-name to the chagrin of a large proportion of legacy fans, but would happily sell their souls for a sugar daddy owner in the long run .
Man City - soulless 50/50 legacy/future fanbase supporting - wealthy sugar daddy plaything club owners.
Chelsea - soulless 50/50 legacy/future fanbase supporting - wealthy sugar daddy plaything club owners.
Arsenal - Self entitled fanbase with owners who cream the brand name as the club heads on a clear downward trajectory - again would have no qualms if sugar daddy stepped in.
Spurs - nothing but a shiny debt riddled stadium and greedy owners terrified of the ladder being pulled up and fans who have never seen them win a league title in colour.

Steeeevieee managing to make Rangers all about Liverpool by any means possible...
“There's two more challenges left to go and I want another six points. I want to keep them hungry, I want to keep them on their toes, but what I will say is 96 points is a special number for me.”
Absolutely bizarre cult.

I hope they end up on 39 points next season. Let’s see him mention how that is a special number.

Yes they're exactly the same. Legging a wall onto people, killing them is the same.
Trying to be principled about this and keep to the "violence is wrong", which it is, but I'd have loved to have seen souness get bopped with a can. He deserves far worse the hypocrite.

This is the interesting thing re FSG. They still think they are signing Mbappe this season.
I think it was James Pearce in the Athletic basically said they will be going for "young unknowns" as signings. They are going to be going back to the days of signing Marco Grugic, or Borini. When that sinks in, there is going to be a lot of anger.
However, when they had their big moment to protest, unlike all the other clubs they bottled it.

I mean all partisanship aside, that just reads like an unnecessary jibe to me. I'm sure its not, but its the sort of thing you'd expect a Millwall fan to say to try and act all edgy.
Like what relevance does Glasgow Rangers getting 96 points have to do with a football tragedy? Why is human life reduced to a point in a football season decades later?
In fairness to Liverpool fans, they have got close to 96 points the last couple of seasons, and I haven't seen any of them make that point, as it would be really bizarre. No idea what he's thinking really. But if he's using the Hillsborough tragedy to motivate his players, it feels out of line to me.
