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

The funny thing is, this idea that their department has to be based in London doesn't hold any water.

So this Hogan bloke has to be in London, because the only place that 'big business' will meet him is in London. Okay... we'll forget the idea of modern technology, Skype conference calls, the fact that London is only 2 hours away on a train and about 50 minutes on a plane.

The business that 'big business' would be investing in is still BASED IN LIVERPOOL. So big business wouldn't be put off investing in a business BASED IN LIVERPOOL, but only wants to meet to discuss the deal in London?

That's just laughable.

What the situation really is - a ) they want to be seen as big cheeses with 'an office in London, just like Man Utd'; b ) this Hogan bloke has refused to relocate from Boston to Liverpool, and will only consider moving to London instead.

Really FFS you know your the bottom of the barrel when your banned from talk go about your own clubs players on your own clubs football forum!

That said it's probably because Chelsea and City have to much money, other fans posing as Liverbul fans, the media, Referees, Ferguson, Roy, Transition or fatigue!

The Legend Grows!

* whistles - Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end!

In mitigation for Hogan though, it was that Ayre fella who screwed up by sending the wrong Club Ambassador in the advance party......

I think this hits the nail firmly on the head........
 
Sturridge is his own parody account, giving boring milner a good run

It's hard to imagine social media sinking to a more banal level - and for that, we have Daniel Sturridge to thank.

The Liverpool and England striker took it upon himself to share a picture of his shopping following a late night trip to Sainsbury's.

He didn't plug the supermarket by name, but eagle-eyed retail sector fans will no doubt note the characteristic font and livery of the shelves.

Perhaps realising that the pic in itself wouldn't draw much interaction, Danny then thought around the problem by throwing out an open-ended question to the world: what's everyone's fave food?


The ploy worked: an incredible 62,500 people clicked the like button, and many shared their answers with the world.

Cheeseburger, without cheese, came the contribution from 'tsnaima'. Ho ho.

Pineapple, said 'ponderouzzz'. Interesting choice.

While 'pauldc', meanwhile, cut to the chase: "Didn't know Sainsbury's was open late".

Mesmerising stuff. Almost as much as the Daily Mail, who reproduced the picture in astonishing, annotated form - identifying the foodstuffs on the conveyor belt for those who may not have recognised what a packet of 'Cornflakes' looked like. Thanks for that chaps.

Just to mix things up a bit, however, the Daily Mail runs a list of 12 numbered items by the picture, but only annotated 11 of them. They appeared to miss out number eight completely.

At first we thought there might be a deeply sinister and very worrying reason for this, considering tha number eight was bananas - football's most racially-charged fruit. But it turned out that the bananas are indeed there in the picture, peeping out from behind the pineapple. It's just that a cock-up in the Mail's graphics department meant the number doesn't have a red background, and is very hard to see.

The case of the missing eight

A lucky escape, eh? Imagine what the Daily Mail would have made of that sort of blunder...

I sometimes look at RAWK, and putting all partizan feelings aside... why would anyone ever want to post on there? It's the most joyless, soulless, cult-like forum, run by mods who act like school teachers chastising naughty schoolchildren, and constantly stepping in to close threads or make up yet more tedious, creativity-stifling ground rules. They want everyone to think the same, post the same, any dissenting opinions are shouted down or silenced, LiberpewlFutbalClub is the greatest thing ever, without faults at all and can never do any wrong. There's literally no self-depracating senses of humour on display at all. It's just an awful place and makes me so thankful I was born an Evertonian.

Well thank goodness someone finally explained the par system in RAWKs alternative league system. For those interested its here:

1. Yes. Losing gives you 0 points, 1 less than 1. Losing a Par 1 means you drop 1 points.
2. No. Drawing gives you 1 point, exactly what is expected from a Par 1. You neither drop or gain any points.
3. Drawing gives you 1 point, 2 less than 3. You drop 2 points.
4. Losing gives you 0 points, 3 less than 3. You drop 3 points.

Obvious really.

Thanks for this. That makes sense.

How do you gain points?

They are just barking mad over there.

Having to start a new thread each time you want to post an article or to comment on a player's international performance seems crazy, @chicoazul might be right which is quite disturbing all by itself;)
