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

[toffee matt]

No one who has the ego to make claims about how humble they are, can ever really be that humble

Daglish is one of the most un humble men in football , it's time for the senile bat to be put down

Future captain mate. Gerrard is captain and is playing DM now which will apparently extend his career, so he'll have the armband for the next 3 world cups.

Pancake will be made up.

He's trolling...100% trolling. And he knows only Evertonians and Man U fans will really bite.

He's not like. He just consistently chats horrendous balls and believes it. He embodies the most cringeworthy characteristics in a fair few of their supporters.

 

[steken1]

He's very humble apparently. He said so the other day.


I suppose there's one possible silver lining (though I wouldn't count on it): if they land the title at long last they might start to relax and not try as hard to show what a big club they are (always a tall order for them in recent years despite the kings ransom spent on players). Not having the weight of United pressing down on them and grinding them into the dust might make them a bit less agitated.

Hearing them invent a david vs goliath scenario about beating the moneyed clubs and they're relative paupers.

Lord take me now!

if he is serious it further supports the argument that they're a genuine cult.

Rodgers: "Players like Joe Allen go for £40m". lol Christ.

 

[Groucho]

haha! on this one we agree.

someone must have linked this earlier:

Kenny Dalglish: Liverpool have always been very humble winners


proper cult talk that.

I've searched the internet for that scene from Bottom where the barman shouts "HELP, HELP, SOMEONE'S ANUS HAS BROKEN LOOSE" but to no avail.....

bizaarely, all the Youtube clips of this episode are stupidly 'mixed' with cheap digital effect-loop naffness. There's about 5 or 6 Youtube clips all from this episode from different users, but all have this rubbish editing, see here for one.

I found the script.

To who? There's hundreds of them in the park by mine. I'll get down there tomorrow and sign them all up.

I think he means only mugs like them pay £40m for players like him

 

[bluestevon]

Rodgers: "Players like Joe Allen go for £40m". lol Christ.

He must be getting ready to sell him to West Ham for about £4m quid then like Cole, Downing and Carroll

And in an incredibly on topic coincidence, he was a [Poor language removed] Head as well.

Rodgers: "Players like Joe Allen go for £40m". lol Christ.

Even today only a handful of players have gone for more than £40m.

They are Gareth Bale, Ronaldo, Zlatan, Kaka, Cavani, Falco, Torres, Neymar and Zidane.

I know i'm just a bitter blue but it can't just be we bitters who'd think Allen's name would look a touch incongruous among that list.

I expect it's Brent displaying his great man management skills by talking him up, knowing he'll be needed for the next 3 matches but it's still ridiculous.

And I just saw a pig fly past my window. If they win the league we will never hear the last of 'Istanbul 2013-2014' and it will be in every World Cup commentary. The whole British football viewing public will have to suffer their 'incredible win against all the odds' during the world cup. And when England don't win the world cup, the recriminations against Hodgson for not playing 'the backbone of the English champions Johnson, Henderson, Sterling, Flanaghan, Sturridge and the best 'controlling midfielder in Europe' Stevie Me'.

I'm genuinely surprised that Igor Biscan hasn't already got his own talk show on BT Sport/Sky.

 

[davek]

No chance. The casual football fan has already bought into the hype. From non-kopites I'm hearing "I hope Liverpool win the title, they deserve it as the underdogs" and guff like that.

I'm a great admirer of the way you keep in character on this forum.

Hats off. A fine performance.
