Everton could crown Liverpool as champions

[nigelcoyb]

No. I'm sorry. Being passionate about Everton, fine yeah, get that. Passionately hating Liverpool as much as you love Everton is bitter and unhealthy and very unstable.

Well possibly mate but as I said earlier there's very little that's healthy (or rational) about supporting a football club I know more lads who'll go for a 10 mile walk, get quietly pissed in the house or punch the door than those who can shrug their shoulders.

Just think you're being a bit hard on the boy Tubes.

To answer the question about age and location, 59 and from Walton , As for all these people telling me that I have issues because I do not want them winning the league just you wait till it happens ( and it is going to happen) they will become unbearable.
If you have to mix with the slime from across the park on a daily basis and think they are unbearable now just wait till the get that trophy back in there hands.Its not even the match winning reds that I am talking about you can live with them as at least they have the right to gloat about there triumphs its all the others that you never even knew were "Liverpool Supporters".
Your next door neighbour will have one of his old pissed stained sheets hanging out of the window with "Liberpool Champions of England " written all over it , the streets will become like Shaun of the dead with zombie like creatures wearing red shirts with Candy,Crown Paints and Carlsburg emblazoned all over them.
Im telling you the nightmare is coming ,is that what you want ? because that's whats going to happen.

3 years behind you mate ex Rice Lane before moving away all those years ago.

Agree with every word.

Because you are trying to explain the ridiculous here. I get that you can be that way with Everton. You invest time, money and a bit of yourself in the club. Lots of our collective weekends are brightened or ruined by the team. But they are our rivals. We shouldn't be so wrapped up in their triumphs. We measure ourselves against them, yes. We hate them and give them a bit of stick, of course. But you should be nowhere near that much of an emotional invest in their success.

No one's trying to explain anything, if you calm down you'll see I'm meeting you half way on this if not conceding. You can't TELL people how to love something or dictate how they respond - we are what we are.

I wasn't being antagonistic it was a genuine question.

I didn't say you'd applaud a win either, I just asked if you were arsed. To say it's "as grim as it gets" but then conversely say they're not a priority seems odd to me, that's all.

The two things are not exclusive. To put it another way, I'll do you a short list of my priorities;

1. Everton FC - winning and doing well makes me happy yaaayyyy!!!
2. Libpool FC - them winning makes me sad

While things remain in that order, and again referring back to the hypothetical dilemma posed by the OP, I want us to do as well as possible irrespective of what they do

I perfectly calm here mate. I'm also not having a go particularly. But that post and this whole thread smacks of people with their priorities severely mixed up.

 

[deipnosophist]

Much of what is being discussed is moot. Everton will beat Man City at Goodison and Liverpool won't win the League.

There....all fixed!

Says you. For me, my priorities are absolutely fine, and I haven't had the arrogance to make any judgement on yours.
