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


Just wait until the weekend and the City game when blues will all be hoping for a City win. They'll be getting all offended and branding us 'Manc lovers' again. We get this sort of thing whenever they've played United for years now.

They're so full of themselves they really believe we should be getting behind them. Their undiluted arrogance and self-importance doesn't have any boundaries.
 
Klopp kept complaining about the fixture schedule but still accepted the same date for cup match despite FA offering other options. What a hypocritical moron!
 

It’s Klopp time now as well. Every time they have needed a late goal it’s been 5-6 minutes added on.
I remember them always moaning about Fergi time and how it was a fix. Not complaining anymore now it’s them.

Just a re-iteration of the main focus of this particular thread - y'know for our newer members who've not yet introduced themselves on the "New signings" threads:

Protest marches, brained waiters, bricked buses, songs about injured players and disabled children.

Not to mention (of course they don't) the death and horror they brought to the game on 29th May 1985.


They can win a 1000 trophies and they'll still be horrible mutant gobshites who've shamed the city on countless occasions.

Liverpool fans when asked about Heysel

 
MikeB1980 said:
I know this is “your thing” but they had goals ruled out in both their last matches that could (and most recently should) have been given, and their keeper missed the first two months of the season with their centre backs seemingly always missing one or two.

It’s that their best players don’t get injured, not that none of them do that’s lucky.

Liverpool fixture pile-up part of 'escalating crisis', says world players' union

Liverpool having to play two games in two days is "the latest manifestation of an escalating crisis at the top of the game", says Fifpro.
www.bbc.co.uk www.bbc.co.uk

Found this part interesting.

The report claims elite non-European players such as Sadio Mane are travelling too much without adequate rest when they leave club football for international duty.

Mane, who has already played 49 games for club in country this year, featured in 70 matches and travelled 100,000km (62,137 miles) to represent Senegal in the 2018-19 season.

It explains why he keeps falling over.

No blue I know thinks we should avoid the subject of Heysel. I don't know about the ones you talk to

And if you're talking about weaponising Hillsborough, of course they have. I'm not the first to say that nor will I be the last

We should avoid the subject of Heysel though. It has become the biggest excuse in the History of Football. We have let a succession of owners, managers and players get away scot free from their inadequacies and instead blamed Heysel.

Quite rightly they were banned for longer than the rest of English team but it didn't stop them in their tracks the way it has stopped us. We have been stuck in a rut since the mid 80's. Potentially our finest hour was snatched away from us because of the European ban but it is no excuse for the chronic mismanagement that has occurred since then.

Instead of taking a good hard look at ourselves and the way the club has been run we look for the easy way out and blame them for 30 odd years of failure. Until we stop taking the easy way out and stop blaming Heysel we will never move forward. Maybe if we put more energy into driving our club forward instead of attacking their lot then we might finally move forward.

Nonsense. Most of the blues I know blame our knuckle headed owners, managers and players mostly.

Never heard a rs fan talk about Heysel. The shame of British football is what the rs are.

Why would rs fans talk about Heysel it is a stain on their club and English Football in general. The bigger question is why we talk about Heysel. If we had kicked on and been the more successful club we wouldn't talk about Heysel.

If they had won nothing and we had won four or four titles we wouldn't bring Heysel up. Instead it has become almost a reflex, fail and then blame Heysel. We need to be better than that. In the mid 80's we had caught them up because we were hungrier and better run them them. That is what we need to focus on. Not what they did three and a half decades ago.
