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

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam

I remember you'd only get about 15 secs of actual commentary per minute with the crackling reception coming and going. Sometimes there'd be a goal and you'd have to wait until the reception came back to see who scored.

Best radio reception was for midweek night game when the weather was cold and clear - still used to have to endure some strange foreign station nosing in every so often.
Mind you, the late great Philip Greene on RTE was similar...not because of poor reception

"Its a goal,,,,,,,,,(crowd noise, while Philip checked who had scored)..."a great goal by Ray Treacy for Shamrock Rovers".

I remember Dundalk v Linfield when he said something like "Reliable sources tell me there is a goal"....his view blocked by burly Gardai in riot gear standing in front of the commentary box.

OK back on topic please hold on Geordies - it would really bring that shower down to earth
 

I genuinely think most 'fans' that go to Anfield don't actually 'support' Liverpool, they just try to out 'support' each other - genuinely like a cult.

Just seen some bloke with the purple shirt on, purple hair and beard - and glitter eye makeup like he's been to Glastonbury.

Absolute cringe the lot of them.
