The fella was prone to memory lapses he remembers bananas being thrown at him at Goodison ( I am not condoning that ) but conviently forgets that it was Liverpool fans who first threw them at him in his debut at Highbury.

And has thrown any black player under the bus since to defend his cult.

Ironic thing is if clubs had refused to resume this season it probably would have sunk Sky forever and paved the way for Amazon.

I always thought taking a knee was an NFL term.
Players do it when slightly injured or when quarterback is running down the clock at the line of scrimmage at the end of the game.

Taking the knee is a moment of reflection where one is kneeling and head bowed.
Unlike our loveable neighbours who whilst kneeling grin like Cheshire Cats looking straight into the lens.

The lockdown has affected some worse then others. Phil Thompson looks even more of a mess then usual........

True that. It was in Dave Hill's 'Out of His Skin'.

The Guardian have somehow managed to criticise BARCELONA for their handling of the Suarez case. Wow.

George Floyd's killing matters too much for corporate sport's on-brand insincerity | Jonathan Liew

Statements barely addressing an unarmed black man’s death are closer to obligation than any commitment to social justice

www.theguardian.com

And on the same evening another Guardian journalist wrote about “English fans” at Heysel.

What's stopping him then? Other than being a monumental tosser that no elite player would listen too.

I also heard the same from a good arsenal fan who was at the game

 

[Noble Savage]

A failed manager yapping about a manager who couldn't control players with IQs bigger than 20 .
Move on .

It’s easy to tweet stuff. Oh look we mowed ‘NHS’ into the grass, oh look Brendan is laying a wreath, oh our twitter team throws out a #YMCA at whatever latest tragedy in the world there is.

What have they done for the community? Nothing. They decimated the Anfield area for their own expansion treating the residents awfully. They’ll sell Melwood to the highest bidder despite local objections. They furloughed their own staff. They hiked season ticket prices up to a level even that lot wouldn’t pay. Worst of all despite record profits, universal media coverage, and huge sway over governing bodies they’ve done absolutely nothing for the city of Liverpool apart from exploit them to make money for themselves.

On the other hand we’ve set up a world leading charity, we’re keeping Goodison as a benefit to the community rather than selling it for profit. We’ve frozen season ticket prices for years again at detriment to us. We didn’t furlough our staff.

Yeah but we don’t tweet #NSNO after every single world tragedy so we musn’t be as moral as the socialist shankly reds.

correct on all these things all thst mattrrs to them is the money its business to henry and co. the brand the fans sorry customers and the slogan this means more sums it up for me. the anfield area is still recovering after the way it was run into the ground in a worse way than klopp does players I grew up in the area and lost a few mates when they left. mate of mine near lost his business window cleaning when more people left more windows got boarded up. it was left in a bad way.and still is in parts.hate them for what they did to good people in a once good area.

I’d absolutely love to know where Rush is getting his crack, I could really use some stuff of that quality.

 

[Jeff Jones]

Absolute vultures ready to swoop down on any tragic death.

You either believe this was a genuine, and spontaneous response to racism and police brutality, or,

a cynical and calculated PR stunt to advance the myth that LFC 'care more' than anyone else.

It certainly wasn't spontaneous. Why were they at their football ground? I saw it on the news and immediately spotted the VS.

#pitythereds

saying a prayer as I type,puts all those George Floyd protests into perspective.
Almost makes a club want to take a knee or is it print a t shirt
