Sadly there’s nothing that club can do to dent their PR image. Their fans have killed numerous people, attacked local opposition fans in Europe on almost every trip they make, they’ve smashed up an opposition team bus, they supported a racist player, they’ve been involved in tapping up players, hacking opposition scouting systems, they spent money they didn’t have trying to win and had to be bailed out through a court case that relied on people’s good will towards them when they should have just gone into administration, they ran their local area into the ground and forced people out of their homes, they threw bricks at an ambulance carrying an injured United player, and now they’re using taxpayer money at a time of crisis as they don’t want to spend a paltry amount on their own staff:

Despite all of this they have nearly every major sports media outlet and journalist in the uk eating out the palm of their hand writing eulogy after eulogy about them and how they should be everyone’s second team because they have so much class in everything they do. Imagine having a rap sheet like the one above and still having the cheek to bang on about never walking alone and this meaning more. No other club in the country can even get near that list of debaucheries yet Liverpool fans strut around like peacocks on moral high horses telling anyone who will listen about how they basically invented supporting, how they invented clapping the opposition keeper, how they invented banners, how they invented pressing, how they invented quick corners or whatever other rubbish comes out of their mouth on a daily basis.

I hope if nothing else this latest unsavoury episode in the debauched history of that club shuts their media propaganda machine and their fans up for at least a day to give every other normal person in the country a break from the endless guff they churn out.
 

One of my best mates works at LFCTV and he´s absolutely gutted by the furlough. There´s an perception that him and his colleagues have tried to create over the past few years alongside Klopp that´s been blown out the window in one swoop.

Any Premier League club allowing their staff to be funded by the government are an absolute disgrace. Every single one of us will end up paying for that. As will all the vital services we´ve relied upon so much over the past few weeks.

I'm not old enough to have gone to have gone to Anfield when they had they old Kop, but was it really as good as people make it out to me, was the atmosphere that much better than any other ground? Because most clubs fans would be up for a champions league semi final, you hardly need to be the best fans in the world. Our fans have provided great atmospheres over the years against Liverpool was excellent, games against Fiorentina, United, and a few others have been brilliant over the years, but we don't go round telling people we're the best fans in the world. The loudest ground I've been to in Britain was Stoke about 10 years ago, but Anfield is usually a morgue unless it's a big champions league game. It's also bizarre that they have a go at Chelsea for waving plastic flags, when their fans do the same with the contrived flag waving, when all the flags are taken by the stewards before kick off. While their fans are widely known as k***s Leeds fans at least are loud most games and they are extremely loyal, I wouldn't associate their fans with being especially loyal. It was also amusing when Red Star Belgrade fans clapped them singing YNWA, the Liverpool fans thought they were showing respect to them, when they were actually mocking them for not singing through the game. At least they have their friendship with their fellow cultists in Dortmund.
 

Just to backtrack a bit from this whole furlough scandal, it was being suggested a few pages back that it might be better for them to be awarded the title, as it would always be regarded as 'tainted' and if they didn't get it they would be moaning for decades and claiming the moral high ground.

I see the point, but no, I can't agree. Anyone believing that a few years down the road this season would still be talked about as the 'winning without winning' tainted trophy is fooling themselves. Give it a couple of years and it will have been wallpapered over to the extent that it was just 'Liverpool's title', the same as every normal season. We would bring it up, but what would we get then? 'Bitter blooz'! No, I haven't got the energy to think about fighting that battle

Give them nothing. Let them moan. I for one will take every single drop of joy and satisfaction that I can from their misery. Every last drop.

And they can do one about 'Hendo' becoming Florence Nightingale In A Red Shirt as well. Personally rounding up every other captain and really not wanting to talk about it? My backside. Attention seeking whore like the rest of them.

The 'myth' of the Kop is just that, a Myth. Full of social misfits and worse... If you were stood on it in the late 60's, 70's and 80's there was a more than 50% chance one of the dirty old black mac wearing tossers would quick as a flash have his penis in your pocket taking a long relaxing piss, or worse. Tossers is a very apt name for what they where up to, lads were leaving the ground with what they hoped was seagull shoite on their backs.

Add to that the strange cast of characters that frequented monster mansion like the frankly quite disturbing 'Dr Fun and Liverpool Charlie' who terrorised generations of the cult, and it doesn't become strange to realise that the Anfield Rd end fans themselves actually lay claim to the fact that they themselves started the chant, "Kopites Are Gobshoites".....

No joke, I'm sure Dr Fun was on the sex offenders register, seriously
