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

[toffeejack]

He's been crap anyway this season. It's all about van Dijk, Firmino and Mane for them nowadays. Wouldn't be surprised if they accepted a 100m deal for Salah and ended up champions next season.

all about allison and mane imo, when allison doesn't play van dijk lets in a load of goals, but the clean sheet percentage between their two keepers has been vast

At that time I was a teacher and used to do private tuition. On that night I was doing tuition in Widnes so I set the video to record it. I got home about 9pm but waited until the game had finished before I started watching it.

It was just after Hillsborough and because of crowd concerns the match was delayed 15 minutes or so. This meant that the tape ran out just before the second goal. Obviously, there was no internet in those days. Not sure about teletext. Anyway it was late so I couldn't really phone anyone to ask what happened so I got in my car and drove to The Pit. There was some scruff hanging around so I wound the window down and asked him what the score was.

He, in choice language, told me that they scored right at the end.

I said 'That's terrible' then drove off and launched into a bout of hysterical laughter.

You drove all the way from Widnes to Anfield just to check their final score? Can I ask why?

Liverpool ‘void’ claims could backfire on Richard Keys and co

Detractors wishing for the 2019/20 campaign to be null and void so Liverpool don't become Premier League champions have forgotten a key point

www.liverpoolecho.co.uk

i've been crying laughing about this article. who is connor dunn? is he 8 years old? hahahaha jesus christ,

It seems, therefore, some of Liverpool's rivals are jumping at an unprecedented opportunity to stop the Reds winning the league, having not been able to do it on the pitch.

hat means, should all of the hopes, dreams, wishes and prayers of rival detractors be answered, Klopp's men would spend another year as European and world champions.

While most other teams would have very little to celebrate this year aside from denying another side deserved success through no great achievement of their own.





oh wait, i've fund connor dunn

It feels like the whole football world is trying to do the right thing, and focus upon saving lives. For the most part we've ignored going too heavily down the route of actively campaigning for the cancellation of football within that context. Yet you seem to have 1 team and set of journalists who, no matter how many hundreds of people die, can't seem to get their heads out of their own backsides and grasp the bigger picture. Grasp that them trying to essentially steal a title they haven't earned is not acceptable and won't be allowed to happen, and more importantly the energy wasted trying to explain why it's unacceptable is diverting attention away from where it should be.

For the benefit of Connor Dunn though, the CL will be voided for this season, the same as the PL. So they won't have won it at all. It will be void, due to a deadly pandemic. Perhaps he might to reflect upon that severity of that, rather than getting involved in a game of one upmanship with his imagination.

You drove all the way from Widnes to Anfield just to check their final score? Can I ask why?

Where does it say that I did that?

 

[hallamblue]

I was in Reading of all places, playing in a football tournament, and the whole pub exploded when it went in, then emptied onto the nearby roundabout and sang Championees Championees!

I was in a pub in Formby, only time I ever hugged a Man Utd fan!! My rs mates went from very friendly to threatening to punch me inside 5 minutes . The landlord was from Blackpool, I remember when Wimbledon beat them in the cup final he brought a Wimbledon teddy into the pub and walked round showing it to everyone. Good times!

Aah just re-read it back. You were tutoring IN Widnes then got home. Then got in the car and drove to Anfield to see the score. Then saw a scruff. then drove off laughing.

I follow you now. My mistake.

Like I said, I mis-read it and thought you had driven from Widnes.

When Wimbledon beat them in the cup rather than watch it I went out to wash the car! When Sanchez scored the bucket - soapy water, sponge and all went about thirty feet in the air, I went running round the road screaming like a dervish, so much so our new neighbour appeared out of his house asking and checking if I was alright!

Remember it well. It was a Friday night and I was visiting my mum (a fellow Blue) for the week-end. Met up with some old mates in the pub afterwards and got well and truly plastered. I was still smiling the next morning, despite the massive hangover.

I was at a family do, a big do, mostly Evertonians but with a dozen or so RS in laws or whatever. It was a cracking night, but then as it looked as though the RS would get the title and the RS were crowing and in taking the piss mode, Thomas just put the ball in the back of the net and a massive shout went up. The rest of the night was a pure joy......

Couldnt you use ceefax or the radio?

 

[Archie Knox]

He's scored about 30 goals????

Would you rate him higher than Firmino or Mane? I don't think many would.
