Loving the bbc breakfast sports review of 2014.. Not a mention of slippy g or crystanbul - they actually put a positive spin on Liverpool's capitulation - Stalinesque revisionism is alive and well at the bbc.

Its because of Kopite agent infiltration by the K-SlippyG-B

They're desperate to appear relevant. When in reality they remain irrelevant

I never cease to be amazed by the absolute waffle that Brendan Rodgers comes out with.

Come back to Liverpool a better player?

What?

Are they going to put him in surgery for bionic enhancement or what ?
 
Obviously I am not a world-expert on the history of that lot but I wonder if anyone has any understanding of this matter: It is of interest to us as perhaps, atypically, that lot have taken possession of something that, maybe, actually was ours in the first place.

SS Great Eastern Flagpole (which stands at the corner of the main stand at Anfield) was originally on the ship which was broken up around 1890. It was hauled up the streets to Anfield and remains there to this day. I am wondering if it actually was in place before we vacated the ground in 1892.

Wiki claims they bought it.. it took 18 months to take her apart. At the time Liverpool Football Club were looking for a flagpole for their Anfield ground, and consequently purchased her top mast.

Actually - here's a claim that we bought it:

http://www.countywicklowheritage.org/page/liverpool_fc_and_wicklow_town

The Great Eastern had no less than seven masts, each called after a day of the week, and the owners of Everton FC, who were then the owners of Anfield, purchased mast 4 ‘Thursday’. It was brought to Anfield to take its place behind what is now globally known as the Kop. Liverpool FC was formed in 1892 and the original occupants moved across Stanley Park to Goodison, leaving the mast behind - too late to come looking for it now!

So we should start a campaign to get our flagpole back.

Where's the flagpole money Bill?
