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

A couple of practical observations (and not from a psychiatric view - obviously the first thing that springs to mind)...

'Priority Booking' ...
Presumably for Premier grade RS ****heads as opposed to the run of the mill sweats and zombies. Though it only allows one day's sales in advance - surely not long enough given the vast numbers involved ?
'Istanbul Reunion Night' ... Er....shouldn't this be in 'Istanbul' ? Although its commendable that theyve gone up in the world from The Olympia/Royal Court where they usually gather. I wonder if they'll have one of their turns on again...you know the one who sings eloquently about Manc ****s and Munich. Then again with all their vast experience in the many wallet-squeezing heartwarming productions they've done regarding Istanbul, they've more or less camouflaged that. Perhaps RS showbiz stars like Daniel Craig and Sue Johnstone will front this one....there wont be a dry eye in the house.

To get the truly authentic 'atmosphere' of a kopite European final. A load of them will turn up with snides, and all try and sit in the same seat. A few will mug their own off in the car park for their tickets, and they'll have a tombola for who gets to throw the concrete slab at a waiter.
 
We'd whinge about not having won anything in the 10 years since.

So basically we can have a 1995 celebration reunion together with a 2005 10 year whinge at the same event! 20 years since 1995 and the 10th anniversary of the 10th anniversary - that would suit the nostalgic Blues and the pessimistic Blues at the same time.
 
Lets get the cup draw started early

Liverpool FC vs (insert easiest team in draw)

The Dark Side have played 130 2 legged matches in Europe (not counting the League format now used in the CL and Europa) - that's 130 straight head-to-head matches with a home and away leg. The average of 130 is 65. They have had the home game in the 2nd leg no less than EIGHTY THREE times - (nearly 64% of the time). A quite stunning piece of coincidence or luck. It's even more remarkable in the Europa/UEFA/Fairs Cup format where it is 37/52 (69% including an unbelievable 32 of the last 41 at home in the 2nd leg (80%). They even won a flipping (!!) coin-toss once to go through.

EC/CL 34/56 (61%)
Supercup 2/2 (100%)
CWC 10/20 (50%)
UEFA/Europa/Fairs 37/52 (71%)

Would put money on them getting the winners of group c if they get out of their group.
