You can't deny it though. Although pool fans normally do. If it was happening at United you lot would be howling. Look at last week, never a penalty (the second one). You seem to get more than your fair share of good fortune.

I'm not united fan by the way i just hate Liverpool.

Having said all that, it was very emotional at the start, excellent tribute so credit there.

I'm kind of glad City lost today because now theoretically we can catch them for third place if we beat them at home and they slip up in another remaining match.

Get in!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't let the other two get to you, ones team is heading for championship and the other has the Football Genius in charge

Unreal first half should have killed the game off.


Suarez and Sturridge were awful, Henderson will be a big miss for the 3 games

As Gerrard said onto Norwich next one game at a time


Fair play to City supporters and club during the silence and from what I heard after the game showed real class leaving scarfs at the memorial


Come on Red men !!!!

Don't worry David, been to enough football matches, met enough fans, been on enough forums to know who is worth reading. I ain't interested in petty squabbles.

True about S&S but it just goes to show that we do actually have a team when we can still bag the 3pts without them.

And yes, the City fans were great during the silence so to them. As Stevie said afterwards, Norwich is massive, these are the teams we usually mess up against. Norwich & Palace will be key.

As for Stevie and the transfer request. He rescinded the request, turned down the millions of Chelsea in order to play for a club he loves, that is more than some would ever do. I'll take that, he became a man that day!

It's not about that. It's about holding your hands up and saying "yes, Suarez was lucky to stay on the pitch after diving and "yes, skirtel did handle the ball blatantly in the penalty area" but like the ref, you guys choose to ignore it.

Like I said before, if it had happened with Rooney at old Trafford you guys would have plenty to say.

Anyway, I have been into football since a young age so you can't really tell me anything when it comes to football. I don't really care if you don't rate my posts, I talk sense and most know it.

Who's having petty squabbles?as it's a football thread I thought most were mature enough for a bit of banter or even slagging when a team gets beat or any other issue one may have.

If it can't have that then the thread ain't worth a damn and I'd rather not waste my time reading all the nicey nice posts.....

I'm all for banter as you know yourself the people who brown nose each other in this thread, It's the post about having to live in the area to support the team or else your classed as not a true support that gets on my nerves, I'm sure you would agree.

I disagree with steedeel's stance,I have said that to him but I think the thread is lacking the banter that a football discussion should include,it's why I didn't bother here for a while.

Like I said,if we can't have a bit of slagging and just post how much we all love each other,I'd rather not bother....just my two cents.

I'll just stick to the Blu-ray section.

I am mature and can banter with the best of them. I'm just not into all this "oh but he dived" "if that was XYZ you would be screaming" blah blah blah.

I shout at my own players when they roll on the ground like they have been

All players cheat, all managers have blinkered eyes. Steedeel seems to have some issue with Liverpool, not my concern. What happens at the Stadium of Shite is not my concern.

Don't worry the Championship awaits for them, Hopefully they do a Wolves and go down again next year

That's my stance I'm not going to change it. Like I said before, there are always circumstances that contradict that but in the main I stick by what I said. The true test of a fan is the hardships that their club goes through. You ain't gonna get that if you go with a 'bigger club' . It's rather annoying, you get these folks who are giving it big saying 'my this' and ' we are best in land' etc and half those people mouthing off have never set foot inside their team's football ground. That grates with me. Not including you with that David, I'm pretty sure you said you have been to ground etc.. Just giving you general idea of some of the crap I have heard.

Also, like Villiam says, nothing wrong with banter. I'm pretty sure you mentioned giving sunderland a good scudding a few weeks back and I didn't take offence, just joked I would be shouting for city then!

Well, half joking because in real life I would be shouting for city anyway, I have had some bad experiences of Liverpool fans in the past. Maybe that clouds my judgement.

I would support them if they were non league! I was there every home game when we were relegated to div 3 for the first and only time in our history The question is, Could you say the same?

Come on Chelsea!

Football is a game of opinions. For me getting planes over night stay to get to 8-10 games a season is a true supporter.

Having bad experiences with Liverpool supporters in the past but you shouldn't judge us all by the same brush.
