ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

the golden visionary said:
I was in a flat today, at least i think it was a flat, there was a this is anfield sign above the front door, so im not sure.

Im auditing a job, and the cretin who lived there was pestering me from the moment i walked in "a mate red or blue".

I said blue, his little face lit up, i see stuff youll never see, first words out of his mouth. Never met him before. I was in madrid yer no, 2nd sentence.

I though here we go again.

He then went on a 20 minute tirade about how bitter blues are, while, without a hint of irony saying how he hopes the new stadium is a white elephant and we end up in the championship, citing man city as an example. When i pointed out man city have been the team of the decade so far, he immediately switched to how everton havent got any fans outside liverpool.

Still dont know his name, but he did remimd me why im glad to be a blue, even now, in this mire, because im not one of them. Even if we go down and they win it all, well never be that.

Which in his case is a 50 odd year old man with a stevie g poster up in his living room living in a 1 bed flat in ellesmere port.

"Ill see things youll never see" yeah mate its called the ellesmere port job centre.

Stuff like this makes me eternally grateful to the nameless scally who robbed the silver Liverpool away shirt my gran bought for my 7th birthday out of our locker at Saint Helens baths.

"Every support has it's bellends", as the cliche goes, but the thing is, every single one of us has met at least one of them that behave like that, so it's clearly what a disproportionately high number of them are like.

And that's what makes them the most loathed support in the land.

Well, that and all the other "stuff", too. Including the fact that I have to point out even on here that by "stuff", I don't mean anything relating to Hillsborough because of what some of them are like.

Speaking of the ballon D’or how does Bernardo Silva who won a domestic treble, was probably player of the season in an unbelievable City team, and won the nations league with Portugal where he was again their best player not even get anywhere near the top of the rankings yet half the Liverpool team is in there for winning a few home games in the CL then beating Spurs.

Mahrez was above Sterling.

It's a beauty contest.
 

I have a very intelligent friend. Excellent guitarist and a generous fella. He used to come to Goodison
with me years ago. We were in Rilleys in town few months ago and I mentioned the bottling of
the Man City coach , O he said "they were only plastic bottles" No I said they wrecked the coach".
He stormed out the pub saying things like jealous Evertonian etc etc.My other mate who does not
follow football , said he's never seen anything like it. My kopite friend is still a mate , but it's dificult
to talk football with him. Personally , I think there should be a study of this phenomena at the
psychiatric department at Liverpool Uni , because it is a strange and unique understanding into
the workings of a kopite brain. Kopitology, perhaps.

Alarm bells and sirens going off. He clearly needs to be told to do one.

Liverpool v Everton: Is this the most one-sided Merseyside derby in a generation?

Their grounds are separated by less than a mile, but the current gulf in class between Everton and Liverpool is vast.

Another fine piece of journalism from the BBC.

Meh. They're no Amazon Prime. Be handy for watching replays in the ground. You'll be able to spot how long the delay is by the reponse time in the away end to a particularly bad use of VAR in their favour.
