How do YOU annoy kopites?

Clint Planet · February 12, 2011

Thoughts of my impending trip north - on a day when the sh*te are at home - have got me thinking about those little ways we get under their skin or wrong foot them somehow.

Living in London, I can usually chuck in a "Nah, I'm actually a scouser, mate - I support Everton" or an "Ever actually been there? Really? Thought not," and then there's the mention of "glory hunting" and the fact that White Hart Lane is a mile away. They don't seem to like that.

Wearing my "The Bird Is Blue" t-shirt with a blue Liverbird on it really gets their blood boiling, too. I love that t-shirt.

Chucking in a "Of course, we won the title at Anfield before you lot existed" is always a joy.

Once, when one of them (cockney variety, of course) actually spouted "18 leagues, 5 European Cups" I snapped back with "one riot." She wasn't happy.

How do YOU do it?

I ask them where they park on matchdays, or where they have a drink before the game ....As 99% of Kopites have never even set foot in Anfield or even know where it is, it's most hilarious to see these demi-humans fluff and bluster before they scuttle off back under their stones

I just tell them there team wouldn't exist if it wasn't for Everton

I ask my workmate " kopites " whether they could walk to anfield from Lime Street Station.
Thought not. Or " What's the last match you attended ? "

* most of them are Blackpool fans,aswell, but I've been to Bloomfiels Rd more times than they have in the past four years

Aslo when they start going off about history and stuff - I just politely remind them that we won the League on their ground!

One of my mates over here ordered the new Liverpool shirt a couple of weeks ago, complete with Torres on the back, turns up on his doorstep the day they sold him. You couldn't make it up, absolutely brilliant. I'm waiting for him to burn it!!!

Was in ASDA the other week when I heard a couple talking and both wearing RS shirts. They had accents straight out of Byker Grove :blink:

Knowing more about their clubs history than them.

And I don't know that much.

Ask them who the manager was before Shankly

I live with one *shudders*, this is getting used today!

I've taken to asking how they're doing in the Champions League / FA Cup on a regular basis, and asking 'fun facts' about Liverpool as a city is always a nice way to leave them blubbing nonsense away.

But, most of all, I wear my Everton shirt around and about .. they have literally no idea what to do!

When they try and throw the FIVE European Cups thing in ya face and you politely ask them "IN which years was that then?" - they tend to get very flustered over that one and then just go on and on about how they won this and that , but still can't remember the last time they won the league
