Not going to look so clever when the prime facie evidence of theft and pictures of the culprits is shown to the police are they?

That was my sort of point.
All sorts gets robbed on aways, but being stupid enough to put a photo of you doing it on social media for a few likes is just weird isn’t it ?

An unfortunate tale of hypocrisy





The lack of self awareness is on another level with these mutants.

He’s an absolute bellend that round the bend. Imagine trying to appease a half “famous” scouse Twitter account.

Checked the timeline of that fella who had his flag robbed, it was by their own fans? Also 8 getting in on 4 tickets? Imagine bragging about that.

The legendary kopite self awareness

Very typical behavior of their right to do anything they want and don’t give a toss. Bragging about it is on another level only associated with them.

How come when any one else wins the FA Cup there’s one article on them, yet when Liverpool win it it’s wall to wall everywhere about how they’ve redefined the game because they won a couple of penalty shoot outs in two finals they were second best in

I’d love Madrid to wipe their eye, genuinely not sure how the media would cope

Because they are going for a perfect season of a quad and us relegated. Hopefully we win today and City put West Ham to the sword making the league pretty much impossible. Madrid will beat them IMO and this greatest ever team will end up with a couple of domestic cups. Next season will be their last chance before they enter a transition period with the spine of their team all into their 30’s

We all do. We live in the world of those who shape it.



Thus - as a consequence of.



This thread is about our place in their world.

That we overly obsess over them far more than they do over us is a further 'thus'.

We also spend a lot. Not that far off them.

Spot the difference.



What does that make us then?

No. In spite of your scattered analysis of psychology/sociology, you certainly have misinterpreted this thread. It has NEVER been to act as a barometer to however poor we are... the "people in glass houses..." angle. It Is here to satirically remark on their particular foibles/eccentricities - of which, of course, they supply a veritable smorgasbord of opportunity for us. Sorry if you don't like it...just wanted to wipe your windscreen for you.

Social media is full of the mighty peds penalty champions of the werld, and their changing room noncery.

Spotted st Virgil of the leg dancing around looking fit as a fiddle - if he was ever injured yesterday then he’s made another miraculous recovery, he won’t be missing any games for them - who’d have thunk it?

don't bank on them being on the downslope of their careers because they are over 30. James Milner waves as he does a cooldown marathon after yesterdays game. Think Father Ted's over 70's football team but still smashing teams aside

not exactly new. Just 7 times in all competitions they have won a final on pens.

Yep. Plus the media put a special spin on it so that it was actually more special winning by pens as it shows their winning mentality and courage.
Winning on pens is a lottery. They got lucky twice. Could easily have been Chelsea with two cups

Have they claimed him yet ? lol

 

[dholliday]

there is an element of truth in this, self fulfilling prophesies etc , but favourable refereeing decisions also help

That's what i meant, their collective mentality shapes the reality around them, including swinging the refs their way, and having the media on-side.

Fergie's Utd is a good example of this too. Once he retired most of that powerful influential mentality went with him.

Doesn’t fit the narrative that mate, even though it’s spot on.

Didn’t you know, the mighty peds don’t ever do anything easy! ??
