You're alright, you don't pretend. I have no issue with that.

Just can't workout why people would pretend to support their local rival. Just a bit strange and what do they also pretend to be????

Contrary to popular belief, it's actually very rare.

People think some views are so odd, "they must be a kopite" - like the example given in this thread here. That member is definitely a blue, and the views people associate to be "obvious kopite wums" on here, are often found on our Facebook page, groups and all over Twitter.

"Someone is saying Moyes would be better than Ancelotti, GORRA BE A KOPITE". You'd hope, even expect so, but there's blues who think that.

Did you check on that guy who wanted Alex Neil?

I agree; assume some Rawkite's think it's hilarious to "dupe the blue-noses" and take screenshots back to RAWK to show how hilarious & clever they are and how deluded the neighbours across the park are.
 
I am one of the people who posted.
And no, not obsessed,
I posted in a spare moment and with good intentions.
Despite the abuse I received ( which I realise now I should have expected) I thought I would inject an outside view.
Out of a desire to be constructive and ( despite what people allege) a genuine desire to see EFC do well.
Let me give you a comparison.
LFC fans knew years ago Mignolet was not good enough for a team hoping to win the PL. Comments on fan forums then reflected that. Not abuse. Just a simple realisation we would need to step up. We knew he would not command a big fee if we replaced him and when he went we wished him well.
What I saw here was delusion about Pickford. Yes you paid a lot of money for him. That of itself does not make him good enough. And observers from outside know he isn't. After last night perhaps you agree.
And with a GK it affects the players in front of him.
Yes Van Dijk has been a superb addition to LFC . But Alisson has been a big factor in both VVD's success and the growth of TAA Gomez and Robertson. When you have Mina and Keane in front of Pickford it's panic all round.

I definitely can't see you getting more stick coming on here the day after the Newcastle debacle to say I told you so, and at the same time laud the success of your own players. Nope definitely can't see anyone taking issue with that.

Helmet.

But he's
*not obsessed
*constructive
*and wants the blues to do well.

Then a war and peace size post about how great they are. Completely normal behaviour.

You were all so nice to Karius when he had a bad day too.

Seriously this site is infested with rs pretending to be blues. No problem with them coming here and wearing their colours on their snot ridden sleeves but....

Come on mods once upon a time such delinquents were immediately banned.
May I ask why this policy has changed?
I've previously had a 2 day ban for protesting about this, so fair enough if you wish to ban me again, I'll except it, but this is supposed to be an Everton forum.

So keep the kopites or ban an Evertonian STH for 50 + years......
Your choice, there are many other Evertonian forums.
This isn't an ultimatum by the way, just a frustrated GOT member.

They cant open up as reds, they would get slaughtered the second they criticize us or compliment themselves. Lets be real here.

I loathe my Dad for making me a blue. During my darkest moments, I sometimes wish I had been a red. Or even just supporting someone properly naff like Crewe or Tranmere.

As always, It’s the hope that kills you.

During my darkest moments i would question my own worth in this life. Not once did i consider supporting Liverpool.
