They like their stats over at Anfield.Well here's a few stats for them Manchester United 20 Liverpool 18.Everton FC founded 1878 Liverpool FC founded 1892All they money they have spent over the last 25 years for 3 FA cups, 4 league cups, 1 Uefa Cup/Europa League and 1 Champions League.Of course we'd like a few of those trophies ourselves but Liverpools budgeting (how we'd love to have the money they have to flush down the toilet) since 1990 has been directed towards winning the league and champions league so that return is pretty dismal for the accumulative money spent.They had their period of success from 1973 to 1990 but they were a nothing club before Shankly arrived and they have been a nothing club since 1990.Just stop with the whole pretending you're a big club act koppites.You're about as relevant now to modern football as Wolves are.:)
 

It's almost like press are not even willing to put the boot in for kopites and Klopp. Uniteds win isnt getting the sweet talk that rs would have had. English media is so full of Kopites it makes me sick.
 

Today was the very first game my 7 year old daughter watched. Full 90 mins, trying to understand the nuances about the beautiful game from her old man.
We sang YNWA together at the start. I tried to transmit my enthusiasm, love for the club with every kick and pass and every shot on goal. We clapped, we cheered, we shouted at the screen - i made her hate that big haired No. 27 and that Shrek looking fella.

She kept saying, "Daddy i love that Liverpool players, get up and play, they dont cry and they dont cheat, but why wont they score Daddy .."
As expected with a kid her age, she lost all confidence when we conceded and her head hung. I kept explaining her, THIS IS WHEN we support - THIS is what it means to YNWA. Come on baby, BELIEVE!

She kept saying, no she didnt. I kept saying, YES BABY - BELIEVE! And then for the last 3 minutes i said, BABY YOU MUST SAY - YOU BELIEVE!
And she did, she shouted the entire added 3 mins "I BELIEVE DADDY!" ... and we lost. And she cried her eyes out.

It is ridiculous to say that they have been a nothing club since 1990, they've added 9 trophies since then including the biggest in football.

3 FA Cups.
4 League Cups.
1 UEFA Cup.
1 European Cup.

Outside of the European Cup the rest of those trophies are small potatoes for a club that has spent the money Liverpool have over the years.

Still, it is a record that the vast majority of English clubs would be very proud of.

I'm at a point now of just not being bothered about them to be honest. I don't hate their club, it makes a positive contribution to our city as a whole.

We have a good, healthy rivalry. I personally don't feel the need to go beyond that.

It was really noticeable on the sports bulletins on the news yesterday evening that they led with the Arsenal result because the RS had lost. Before the games yesterday, the TV media hadn't even registered that Arsenal were playing.

Getting us kicked out of europe and a member of their board setting up Howard Kendalls move to Bilbao was a positive contribution alright.
