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

[Harryflashman]

….i clearly remember they couldn’t give tickets away for free in the pub during the Hodgson era.

Fans spend a fortune for a tourist weekend to buy their half/half scarves but they’ll stop booking if there’s no attraction. Their support is global but their model is fragile when times aren’t great.

Your memory is spot on as is your assessment. The way the club is built and their funding programme they need success .

Pretty sure they had some issues with demand and a lot on resale for one of the games in December , Sunderland maybe .

well they had a very good start tbf

its like that season under ancelotti when we thought we would win the league in December and finished 10th

 

[arch stanton]

Thats the issue cant fully laugh at them still 4th

theyre at the top of a group of about 5 or 6 teams, they have to do better than ALL of them to stay ahead, difficult when they are so crap. They may well stay above them but there are some half decent teams in that group

Let's have it right, then, that would = lost 9 of the last 17...

 

[maccavennie]

You can see it now Macca “he’s one of our own” “he just gets us” “he’s returning to his spiritual home”

Then we’ll have the media “Alonso has invented this new way of playing footy” then they’ll wank themselves silly over everything he does and says.

He looked like a rabbit in headlights at Madrid, especially when he went to Anfield.

You can sense people will be getting briefed about Slot. The ex players will be the first to wade in, then the journalists. His race is run imo and it is only a matter of time before he gets the boot.

 

[blueconverse]

Just saw pen decision. How they can believe refs are against them is beyond me. Digusting dive which he's done a few times.

BBC comments - "fans" cancelling their Sky subscriptions as they're not worth the money.
Hilarious.

 

[mmmmsnouts]

Sending their new armchairs back to DFS before the sale ends.
But joking apart this is what makes football tick in this era....
Expect emergency meetings for sky and pgmol this week.

Hilarious that they’re calling for Slot’s head now after winning them a title, yet Baron Von Yellowteeth got away with any real criticism in 2020/21 for also having a bad title defense

Simple fact is, in the modern game they simply cannot defend titles the way they did in the 70s/80s unlike United did in the 90s/00s and City have in recent times
