These 'fans' would belittle the fact that others were daft enough to support their home town club while they were perennial winners. I grew up 10 miles outside Sheffield in Derbyshire. I'd guess 2/3 of my year group supported either Man Utd or Liverpool -- who had an interest in football. I can only remember one person who ever went to a home game at either club. If they did go to a match, it was an away match in Sheffield. When people look back at us getting 40k vs Utd and Liverpool, and thinking we could get that regular in the Premier, I don't think they take into account how many local supporters of Utd and Liverpool were in the home end.

Adem Poric Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I hated all the fuckers that supported Liverpool growing up. Loads of them near me in Derbyshire. Always got on at them for just picking the team that were the most successful. However, living in Liverpool you get to realise they are mostly pretty decent. Every fan base has cunts it’s just when your fan base is so much bigger around the country, and world like, Liverpool’s and Man U’s are then you probably run into plenty of the bad ones. My in-laws are all reds and they have mostly been desperate to win because they have been close but haven’t been able to get over the line. Their entitlement is usually that they think they should be challenging, not that they should be crowned champions before the season starts. They deserve the title and the accolades they have received because they are the best team in the league and the most exciting team to watch. They play at pace and are always looking to score. Possession football is pretty but as Chelsea showed last night having some serious pace and taking defenders on is much more exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then I’ve met some sound Liverpool fans too. I didn’t like how they stood by Suarez. But then again we can’t really talk because a lot of our fans stood by Forestieri. But at least we didn’t make banners and wear t shirts claiming his innocence. FF was found innocent in court, only the EFL thought different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIGHERSTATE Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 I have two really good scouse friends from working away. Lovely people you could always have a laugh with.

Many would struggle to know where Liverpool is, let alone visit Anfield. Accordingly, they ho overboard with their Liverpool fandom. I actually find this hilarious..I know a guy from Dover just like this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshOwl Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Man Utd fans are so bitter they can’t handle it. I’m pretty sure we’d all be going stark mad after winning a trophy after 30 years. They’re even claiming that this is Liverpool’s only premier league title. Yes, because of a name change all the previous wins don’t count Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a big fan of Klopp since his Dortmund day’s. Always knew given time he would crack it at Anfield. Well done Jurgen and well done Liverpool. Why should they have won it last season?

punkskaphil Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 It's funny, reading through the comments in this thread. I don't know if it's because I've lived my whole life in the south of the country or not, but from my own experience I've met very few Liverpool fans in my life that are anything other than decent people. In my experience it's always been Man Utd fans who are the ones who lack any kind of humility or grace and who always feel they have a divine right to win.

darra Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Found this on Twitter. 🗒 STATEMENT 🗒 LFC condemns the tiny minority of our fans who behaved inappropriately in celebrating the club's Premier League title win. Globally, everyone knows how well-behaved real Liverpool fans are. A little over exuberance should not tarnish this reputation. Discuss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncing Owl Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Through gritted teeth, congratulations to Liverpool. Whilst it is a sweeping statement, I can’t do with scousers. But, I do think Klopp is a top guy and a special manager and he has built a great team. I don’t think anyone can doubt this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
