Liverpool embarrassing themselves and football. (a definitive list)

Not open for further replies.

There's an incident that I don't think gets enough love from back in 2005. Harry Kewell, being the mouse-hearted onanist that he is didn't fancy the rest of a final they were losing and limped off after 15 minutes saying "it's snapped".

Hadn't snapped bad enough you couldn't jump around on top of a bus holding a 25kg trophy the next day, had it?

NB: In researching this rant I chanced upon the Echo's match report and was a little bit sick in my mouth.

When you get homesick, nothing will stop you returning to the arms of those you love...
The European Cup didn't fancy Paolo. She wanted Steven, but it took a series of remarkable chat-up lines from the Liverpool manager to ensure his skipper got his wicked way.
The only reason Liverpool weren't fatally wounded by a first half blitz is the fortunate fact immortals can't be destroyed.
Gerrard and company have rewritten football "possibilities" throughout this campaign, but even the heroic efforts of Olympiakos, Juventus and Chelsea were rendered insignificant compared to this.
It shouldn't have happened. Some of us aren't convinced it did. Only the pinch marks confirm it. We thought it was all over. It wasn't.

Well The Echo got one thing right in that melodramatic guff re their 2005 final courtesy of Garcia's "goal" v Chelsea. "It shouldn't have happened"

The homecoming reception at St Georges Hall after they won the European Cup in 77. Mc Dermott was pissed and couldn't hold his bladder. There were some unfortunate St Johns Ambulance nurses who got showered below.

Also those infamous comments from Emlyn Hughes. I've hated them ever since

Which I believe started the wedge between the two clubs.
That parade was watched by the city not just latter day vermin.

He's just missing his hi-viz ticket inspector jacket. Otherwise he's good to go. Do they enjoy jerking the gherkin whilst sat on a pole at the festival because he'll be well up for that.

Me and fellow Blues mates hated being patronised by them at the time. As long as they were winning everything then it was ok by them if little old Everton could win the odd cup (pat on the head - keep it in the city blah blah).

After we beat them in the FA Cup 81 (the Imre Varadi match) some RS blert said to me "Did you enjoy yer win lad? "Now go and win it for the city" We'll win the rest". I thought you arrogant ****.

Remember, us winning a trophy was only good for the city in their eyes if they were winning them too.

They call us bitter. Not as bitter as they are. City are getting the hatred now but substitute them for United then Chelsea in the past, then years before that Forest under Clough & Revies' Leeds. They were more bitter than we ever were at the time.

They just can't help themselves. They ramp the pressure up on themselves constantly.
Their fans are then frothing at the mouth for it and when it doesn't happen it's somebody else's fault.
Or if you had 2 points for a win or the most goals scored outside of the penalty box then they actually
did win it. A weird club with a disturbed set of fans. They never learn, which actually is great!
If it's not the players it's the mafia of ex-players they have in the media doing the same week in and
week out. They just never seem to learn.

Nah, with VAR and the media in tow, they can't lose.

Fans bragging about a 5 million year waiting list for season tickets while forgetting to point out that the club actually sells the least season tickets in the league so they can allow for day trippers.

I’ve been on the Liverpool waiting list since my mum was pregnant with my youngest brother. He turns 19 in November.

You lot every single summer think you’re good enough to break into the top 6.

Last summer you were the 2018/19 Summer Transfer Window Champions and still were shitter than Wolverhampton Wanderers ‍♂️

'kin hell, my glory hunting brother was only on the wait list at United for 2 years and that was when they were winning stuff.

I see nothing has changed since the days I lived in Liverpool when 9/10 Kopites couldn't get to the match cos "Yer canna get tickets, laaaaaaa"
