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

[ToffeeDan]

Oh dear. They are going to win the Pre-Season League again aren't they?

(As long as they don't get a points deduction for the pitch invasion at Tranmere)

They're at that point of the year when they:

1. Have the best squad in the league

2. Have the best manager

It usually all comes crumbling down around December.

Forum keeps timing out sorry about that.

To be fair to the lad he did say £300 rather than £300 million. Maybe he's new to the cult and doesn't realise that all their players become world class as soon as they pull on the RS shirt. And if they get injured, hoo boy are they world beaters!

Why is it that no-one is allowed to have a negative opinion of any kind over at RAWK? they've got a new thread on Captain Marvel 'Hendo' and they're annoyed that some dare to say on Twitter that he's not good enough for Liverpool.

Nazi camp that place.

We're in no position to talk at the moment after what happened with Martinez

Before his reign finally became too bad to ignore, anyone with even a shred of criticism for him was annilated and called a "bad supporter" and accused of "disloyalty"

It was honestly cult like at one point

In fact, I think it played a big part in the ferocity that Martinez was met with at the end, which was OTT for a guy who didn't seem like all that bad a bloke

People had been forced to store any criticism up, lest they be assaulted by The Cult, and it eventually all exploded at the end

So yeah, RAWK is bad, but we're no better at times

I remember back in march last year when i wanted martinez gone. Think it was chico and the usual suspects trying to 'vault' me for the fact we then went on to beat QPR and newcastle and tried to make out like i was wrong that martinez was a bad manager............

Anyway, think the difference here is that arguing against someone who isn't backing the manager is a different kettle of fish. We should back the manager, up until the point where it is beyond the point of no return. Moyes for me sunderland the year before he left, martinez (like many others) was west ham. RAWK don't like you saying a bad word about anything to do with the club, a unified opinion site where everyone essentially agrees with each other on everything and the only time they disagree is to make outlandish comments about everything which makes them all look deluded. Look around this site and people do disagree with everyone else, even to our own players!

Therein lies the rub

Criticising a manager doesn’t mean you aren’t backing him or want him gone, it just means you are critical of something that he has done

We need to get away from the idea that criticising the manager means you don’t support them. There’s having a go and then there’s giving feedback/criticism

This site would be 100% better if people could recognise the difference

Great post.

Haven't been here for long but here, like most forums on any subject, any criticism is immediately seen as an attack which needs defending which leads to a vicious circle.

Good post mate.

There's some nice lads here but I do have do say, it's an awfully paranoid place at times.

RAWK is on another level though. That place is a cesspit, it's a Liverpool Propganda Machine.

The really weird thing is that their mods are convinced that Liverpool players and staff would get offended by reading any negativity.

Newsflash for them: The Liverpool players and staff don't spend their free time reading their load of waffle.

Forgot to add, I support Everton Football Club. Managers come and go as do players. Not one person is ever bigger than our club and people need to wake up and remember that.

i feel the same way about booing the players on matchday

Not really mate. There are a wide variety of views on here and we certainly don't try to homogenise one particular view or "truth" like is commonplace on RAWK. Nobody was banned on the Martinez thread at any point and a wide variety of opinion was tolerated. As it is with Koeman. If an Evertonian puts a critical post of Koeman up it is left here, whereas the same post on RAWK the guy would be banned.

What do you think would happen, if a rat had the decency and intelligence to tell the truth on there. Start a thread comparing the trophy count of Both Koeman V Klopp and seen that it runs as 21 v 3. How long do you think that poster and the thread would last? That's a true sign of a dictatorial cult and Fuhrer worshippers when telling the truth becomes a punishable act.
