Topic: Title Race - Who would you rather win?

[Melbred]

Surprised at the votes for Spurs. Them winning widens the gap between us and them for potential transfers. They seem to have the right man in charge playing good football.The lure of being Champions and playing in London will have players who we target favour them.

Chelsea winning doesn't really change much in the grand scheme of things, and their titles will always be marred with the Abramovic brush. They will always spend big, and top players will always look to go there for the money.

Spurs all day long, granted they have a few knob fans, but the majority are good lads. Wont see them booing and chanting during a minutes silence for Hillsborough.

This is why people have voted for Spurs.

[FinnanTastic]

The only knob headed spurs fans I come across are the ones on the Internet, with such charming threads as "Victimpool" and "the Dippers" I honestly dont see where things like this come from ,nowhere on this forum is there any such animosity towards any other club to warrant thread titles like these,not just spurs but nearly every other club, can anyone elaborate ? it cant be just our fervent support.

That's probably more a reflection on rawk than on our entire fan base. We also have a minority of dickhead fans. I'm sure there are places on the internet where you can find Liverpool supporters making fun of Munich or other below the belt topics. Thankfully not here though, seems like there's a zero tolerence policy towards such things.

[kevlumley]

Exactly, one brilliant example

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

Spurs.

I understand the logic about them becoming more attractive than us and whatever, but anytime you pitch an artificial monster v a club organically developed, I would love to see proper work win out.

You obviously make an exception for Everton but the rest yeah, spurs over Chelsea.

How would anyone want those vile Chelsea pieces of scum to win anything is beyond me

Agreed. For those that need reminding of this disgusting lot:

How would anyone want those vile Chelsea pieces of scum to win anything is beyond me

It is quite simple, actually. We must get Arsenal, Man Utd and Tottenham out of our way, before we take on the oil clubs.

agreed. spurs all day long for me. absolutely detest chelsea and i think the reasons some people in this thread have for wanting spurs not to win are petty and pathetic. who cares if they win a league before we do?  id much rather that than these horrible chelsea pricks winning again with their bland functional football.

[Iska]

If this poll had been titled 'Who would you rather be struck by an outbreak of rabies?', I wonder if the result would still be so even?

[Lycan]

It might be simple for you with you not being a scouser. Or not having family that are scouse. It's not that simple at all for a lot of us though. If you think about how their cuntish fans have disrespected Hillsborough and the 96 on more than one occasion. And have shown nothing but contempt for scousers and the city of Liverpool in general. How as a red could you want that gang of twats to win anything?

[moondog]

Obviously would rather we won the league, but between these two would have to chose Tottenham. It would be a good thing for us, our owners and the players to see that for two consecutive seasons , money didn't win over teamwork. Leicester and spurs back to back would show everyone that we could also do it, and as previously mentioned and noted the champions would be under pressure from rich clubs after their star players plus playing at Wembley next season is likely to mess them up. Hopefully winning the league would in some strange way make them weaker, perhaps the manager goes to Spain?
Also would rather Everton won it than the Chelsea scum, and that's saying something.

Lycan, I think you're being over simplistic and I've got a couple of issues with bringing up Hillsborough in this.

Firstly, if we only use Hillsborough to determine which club we want to win games/titles, then why do we get so much joy out of Everton losing? Their conduct and behaviour regarding Hillsborough has been exemplary, we couldn't have asked for better neighbours. Yet the majority of Liverpool fans love to see them lose and would hate to see them win the title. Their conduct regarding Hillsborough clearly doesn't come into it, so when do we pick and choose when we use a clubs conduct regarding Hillsborough as a factor?

Secondly, not all Chelsea fans are scum and not all Tottenham fans are saints. I used to work with loads of Chelsea fans and, believe it or not, most were sound. How should one vote, in your opinion, if in their own personal experience the Chelsea fans are better than the Spurs fans on the key issues you've mentioned (i.e. Hillsborough and attitude to Scousers)?

That's completely different. Hillsborough is nothing to do with that. They're are our city rivals. We have family that support the other half. Some of us live with them. Some of us work with them. So of course we don't want them to win the league. And of course we love it when they lose. That's only natural mate. There is no hatred there. That's just the way it is. They don't want us to win anything either.


I find it strange you tried to compare the two to be honest with you mate.

[Lycan]

Oh and of course not every Chelsea fan is a c*nt. But I'd say there is a large majority of them within their support that are fucking horrible. Right up there with the mancs imo.

[Xabi Gerrard]

I was just a bit confused about when we should use a club's conduct over Hillsborough to like/hate them and when we shouldn't. Still a bit confused to be honest with you.

I don't know what the confusion is to be honest with you. Any fan base that sings songs about Hillsborough or breaks the minutes silence are a gang of twats imo. That's enough for me to hate them. But if it doesn't bother you that much it's up to you. I'm not forcing you to hate Chelsea or their fan base.

It does bother me whenever anyone's disrespectful over Hillsborough.

That's why I hate their fan base and wouldn't want their team winning anything. Just watch the clip above in that FA Cup semi-final from a few years ago. Hundreds, if not thousands of them chanting "murderers" during the minutes silence for Hillsborough. Bastards!

[Fairytale of 2005]

Probably Spurs just about, but I don't think they will.
