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

Defending bringing up ethnicity with a stereotype. That is a bit like saying black or Asian people obviously were not born here because of their skin colour. For all you know that individual could have been born here and lived the majority of their life here but were brought up in a different Country. If one of your parents was in the armed forces or worked abroad you could easily have a different accent.

Why are fans of a working class game playing the establishment divide and conquer game. They spend hundreds of thousands of pounds sending their kids to private schools, so they don't develop accents whilst the working classes tear each other apart regarding ethnic and regional stereotypes.

I give up comrade, I have booked myself in for a 35 week course for the correction of 'ideologically unsound' beliefs'.
 

I've red mates to.
Can give a bit of stick out and also take it.
It's the new breed of Liverpool fan that seems to have more odd balls in than the older ones.
I blame Sky and Twitter.. but to be fair, I do tend to blame those two for most things nowdays.

They just get embarrassed intellectually, as once their weird cultists ideas meet the outside world they realise how loathsome and pathetic the world sees them to be.

For some, they will then just make ridiculous and continued arguments as they get angrier and angrier as they realise people see right through them.
 
I genuinely thought he was being sarcastic on the other thread. Hes nailed his colours to a guy who's trying to say essentially Troy Deeney was wrong to highlight concerns and Liverpool fans were therefore correct to a use him and his kid. What a truly odd bunch.

Kopites will be Gobshites mate. You know it, I know it, we know it.

Even they know it.
 

Taken from The Guardian's fan previews article. How sickening are their fans? Like honestly make your stomach churn that they even think like they do lol

Liverpool
Our first game is the derby, which I think we’ll win and be on our way. I’m confident we can take up where we left off, perhaps not with the same intensity at first, but I can’t see us not winning most of our games. Six points and we’re champions. It’s been a while.

Is it right to restart? Yes. This season needs to finish before we can start to think what’ll happen for the next. Behind closed doors isn’t great but at this stage there’s no other way. Who knows when crowds will be able to gather again, and we’ve already had to play a game – against Atlético Madrid back in March – that we shouldn’t. It looks like it had dire consequences.

What I missed most … Seeing Liverpool win the league. Celebrating Liverpool winning the league. Seeing mates. I’ve been asked a few times if I think this title will be tarnished because of the situation? Tarnished? Madness.

What I missed least … Travelling at crazy times for crazy kick-offs to suit TV. Oh, and the rubbish you hear (see above).

Has the club had a good lockdown? Klopp and the players have done a fair bit of community work and online connection with fans. The club took some stick when they announced they were going to furlough staff, and days later they backtracked. But they did backtrack. Anyone can make mistakes. The reversal came thanks in a large part to pressure from Spirit of Shankly and the club’s willingness to engage with the supporters’ union. The club also worked with SOS to lobby for games to be played at Anfield, not neutral venues. We’ve got an ace squad and the best manager. And pretty soon we’ll have number 19.

Predictions … Top four: 1 Liverpool; 2 Man City; 3. Leicester; 4 Chelsea. Going down: 18 Watford; 19 Aston Villa; 20 Norwich.
