Essix Blue Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 16 hours ago, Ever the pessimist said: Some of the interviews with Burnley players and fans did seem to imply it was time for a change. However, keeping him until the season’s end may have led to the old ‘mutual consent’ and saved them a few quid compensation. One on radio this morning said she was still happy he was sacked.

Skyline Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 They also have an awful "Everyone is against us" attitude. I have a friend who is a Liverpool fan and I poo you not, every single game these past few weeks he has been slating the refs in every Liverpool and Man City game. Stating that they're all against Liverpool and they all want City to win the league and therefore have all been bias towards City. His latest rant went all the way back to a penalty not given against City for Everton. Apparently, the ref, the people in VAR were all from Manchester and they didn't give the penalty because they hate Liverpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 People do hate Liverpool. Pep got the temperature of the nation completely wrong when he said people preferred the Scousers. Miles off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) 7 hours ago, Ever the pessimist said: Re. ‘Why do people not like Liverpool’… I know social media brings out the idiots, but this is the kind of tripe that a disproportionate amount of Liverpool fans seem to believe. I wonder which one old Si Steers is actually from. I'll wager it's not the city in the middle. Also - the idea that all City fans are plastics and day trippers who don't really care, whilst all Liverpool fans are 100 percent authentic, is the biggest load of cobblers. One of my best mates is a Man City fan. He's 36 years of age and he watched them nearly f*ck it up in a play off final against Gillingham in 1999. That was the year that their nearest and dearest rivals won the treble. He's had to watch the likes of Jamie Pollock, Antoine Sibierski and a fat Robbie Fowler among many others. Yes, Man City are now a super club and they are financially backed by a state and I don't overly care for what they've become, but to suggest that the 30 odd thousand who used to go to Maine Road when they were in Division Two are not real football fans is so in keeping with the mindset and arrogance of certain Liverpool supporters. The best bit is Liverpool are a bigger club than Man City and actually have far more plastic, jokey, crappy, couldn't spell Anfield, let alone actually to go it fans than most clubs, bar possibly Man U. If Many City are what stands between us and Liverpool dominating English football at the present time then so be it.

Its amazing when Liverpool and Man Yoo fans call all Chelsea and City fans plastic who only started supporting them when they got rich owners. So when did they start supporting Man United and Liverpool.... And the Emptyhad jibes from those who never go to Old Trafford or Anfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that article is true, then what a shame. Dyche, those in charge (pre-takeover) had done a brilliant job of taking Burnley from Championship mediocrity to a relatively solid PL outfit. And that appears to have been thrown down the tubes by those above Dyche for a leveraged buyout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It "means more" and they do things the "proper" way. These fans seem to ignore the fact that their owners are billionaires who own the Boston Red Sox among other thing. They can splash 50 odd million on Luis Dias in January, but you'd think they're paupers or something. A day won't go by that you don't see a Liverpool player or even the manager promoting/flogging some product on your tv screen. Absolutely bore the t*ts off me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's interesting because Dyche is extremely studious about his role - he is so thorough I've worked with him a bit and like him but more so some of his staff - Ian Woan and Tony Roche are really decent guys I don't know him well enough to call him or anything - but i do know quite a bit about how he operates and he is really impressive If he was shafted from above and hung on for a pay off then i don't blame him - he has done absolute wonders for that club and built them from a wreck to a PL club with a Cat 1 academy and state of the art training facilities Nothing lasts forever but if he was backed and supported then Burnley would be a very strong club - they are already talking about downgrading their academy which will cost them in status and grants - and for the marginal amount it costs for a PL club that seems really significant tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
