Not open for further replies.
I dont know how this twitter argument started or what was said, I assume it was some RS crying that the media havent taken the same sycophantic view towards anything Suarez does as they have, regardless though I have to say, I think Barclay was a little out of line here, he should have taken a higher road than that.

People seem to be forgetting: Patrick Barclay does take Rupert Murdoch's money. The man who tweeted him wasn't part of a crowd that killed 39 people.

the poster has insinuated that Barclay is scum as he takes murdochs money...Barclay simply pointed out that yes, you can be classed as a lower form of scum and gave a reason why.

Oh, so should all Liverpool fans past and present be made responsible for what happened?

No, not at all. But regardless of what I think, he had a point because that's something Patrick Barclay is doing. Bringing up something like that is cheap considering the person who sent the message shouldn't have to be associated with it.

I get it. So if you're related through blood to someone who has committed a violent crime people have a right to remind you of that whenever possible and goad you. Seems fair.
 

So basically Tonionio, you're saying Heysel should have no relevance to the modern Liverpool fan.

So why should your 5 European Cups and 18 leagues?

what point did he have ???? that Barclay gets paid by murdoch ??? Barclay is not responsible for murdoch's actions, he simply works for one of his organisations and gets paid for it.

From our fav forum

Can anyone get this to the club (via Twitter, via any of our players on twitter)? Needs to be given full exposure and Mr. Barclay must simply be banned from the club and any of its facilities (along with Winter and Olly the Wally).




This is why Kenny blanks the ****ing lot of them. He knows from experience the bigotry against this club has been deep set for years and will never change. What set us apart as a club and fan base was we never pandered to the ****ers.

Sky changed all that with disastrous consequences. Infighting, bickering and ****ing hand wringing about how we are badly done to by the press. Me, I've always revelled in it. It's become particularly vicious lately. Why? Doesn't take a rocket scientist does it? We're on our way back to the top with a manager and owners who have reinstilled belief in us.



Now that public opinion on Hillsborough is at last aligned with the awful truth, self-aggrandizing tossers like Barclay and his ilk (and by ilk I mean Ferguson-fellating, LFC-despising hacks who happily covered up United's players Heysel song on the pitch in Moscow '08 and Ronaldo's behaviour at the Munich anniversary), have thought "baah, right what else can we sling at these lot?". Cue the Heysel digs once again.

Thing is, he could have deflected that question easily citing mortgage/family or even ignored it completely. But the [Poor language removed] just couldn't help himself and in doing so revealed his vile character for the wider public to see. Let's hope his current (?) and any prospective employers were amongst them

That is the equivalent of saying that every nation/corporation etc. that has been involved in some kind of atrocity or scandal shouldn't be allowed to celebrate its achievements and successes without being reminded of the atrocity or scandal that has happened. That's madness.
