Topic: We’ve won it 6 times

[Keith Lard]

I am just so damn happy. Like a warm beautiful glow inside every single day. Feels so good.

Thank you thank you thank you.

Six times! We’ve won it six times!!

[zip]

With next year's final being at the Atatürk stadium, I suppose we have no choice but to win it again!

Let's make it SEVEN next year in Istanbul! 

[conman]

We must have the most succesful win rate in this competition, seriously..

We've been in the competition 21 times
We've been in the final 9 times
We've won it 6 times
43% of the time we reach the final
28.5% we win the bloody thing

Makes you think about how many times we've come close as well. Missing out on the final in 65, losing in 2007 when we could have won the final, missing out on another final here and there. Incredible record.

Should take a while for City to catch up I guess.

Honestly think we are serious contenders for number 7 in Istanbul.

Many of our main rivals are in hiatus / rebuilding

Or, to put it another way, we've won 66.6% of our European Cup finals.

Compare that to United's 666!

It's crazy to think we've only won one more FA Cup than we have European Cups!

[deFacto please, you bastards]

6-3 record in finals, the 6th one was the first time we won it whilst being the ''away'' side [lost to Milan,Juve and Real in previous occasions when that was the case]

In the last 15 years we've played the same amount of CL finals as Barca and Real, and only they've won more us.

Considering the period of uncertainty we had as a club during this time and considering how many times we didn't play in CL during this period, it's a fantastic achievement.

A few beers inside...Just had one of those moments!  Yeeeessssss!!!!! Get in there you mighty Reds!

[Snoopy29]

Lol I'm just laughing at the other fans  particularly  the outspoken United fans who are soo obsessed with Liverpool FC winning.
It's just beautiful  that we shut everyone's gob by doing the talking on the pitch.

Feels satisfying knowing that summer transfer window is upon us. Its exciting times.

Good bit of fact that.

Was only thinking of this last week. Cheers for posting it.

It reminds me of one of those fleems like The Notebook,were Noah and Allie go their separate ways and just keep coming back to each other. Even Allies Mother keeping all those letters Noah sent over the years didn't stop what was meant to be despite her best efforts.

It's a modern day love story,and it's a pleasure to be part of it.

   Your utterly deranged, Capon. So funny. 


edit Sang both verses of "lets talk about six" to a variety of non-lfc fans in my section at the Toronto fc last night, wearing a Carlsberg with a collar and carrying (gasp) a half and half from the preseason friendly we played some years ago. "Who the fuck buys a half and half" i kept yelling "but this one has Liverpool on it".

Toronto's great for that, everyones from somewhere else and they've all got another team the banter is endless but its all friendly. The Chelsea and Manc and Manc City guys all about of me were clearly informed what time it was, just in case they didnt know 

[ABZ Rover]

That's a tear-jerker.

Lovely isn’t it.  Shame it’s only going to be there 12 months.

[Jambo Power]

I still can’t see the difference between the one in Istanbul and the one in the cabinet.

There isnt any difference, just somebody being bored and wrong.

[Rainbow Laces]

There's one thing I can't get out of my head. The media likes to speak of a so-called "big six" in English football yet we alone have more European cups than the other five combined.

"Big six" - ha! The only big six is ours!

[Huytonian]

Real Madrid won it the first 5 times 1956-60 before other big teams really took notice. Ignore that, and we are not far off at all.

Doing so would be like Man City and Everton supporters who are now trying to do mental gymnastics to discredit our 6 cups - because 1) now it's not really a competition for only champions and 2) when it was a comp for champions only the competition was "weak".

You never go full Everton.

Added to the fact what they are saying is complete and utter nonsense, he's definitely went full Everton.

[mainone]

Ive got a new hand.

[missis sumner]

You can see in these photos.

This is how the trophy in the cabinet looked. The handles go right to the top.

Here's the trophy at Istanbul. Look near Rafa's hand

The trophy in the photo is near, but the one in Rafa's hand is far away.

 

On a serious note, they have definitely changed the ears - I don't like the new version.

[missis sumner]

Ok, I'm confused.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Champion_Clubs%27_Cup

"Since 2009, Champions League winners have not kept the real trophy, which remains in UEFA's keeping at all times. A full-size replica trophy, the Champions League winners trophy, is awarded to the winning club with their name engraved on it.[6] Winning clubs are also permitted to make replicas of their own; however, they must be clearly marked as such and can be a maximum of eighty percent the size of the actual trophy.[7]"

So is the trophy currently in the Kop Bar, the full-size replica (Champions League winners trophy), with our name on it?  Do we therefore get to keep the full-size (replica) trophy?

[M(oaning) B(ecomes) E(mbarrassing)]

I remember the first time I actually saw it close up.  It was displayed at the Liverpool Show in 1977 and I stood right next to it, although it was inside a glass cabinet.  I thought then, and still think now, it was the greatest object I'd ever seen.  I remember feeling emotional at being so close to it.  Emotional and unbelievably excited.  It does that to its believers! 

[Gnurglan]

Sure, but by all accounts they had a fantastic team at the time. They've earned their titles.

Rightly so. It's the greatest trophy any footballer on the planet can win.

This one is about being good enough to play for a great side and not so much about where you are born (like for example the World Cup).

That's right, we keep the full-size replica this time.  That one Jordan lifted was the real one but he had to return it when we left the pitch and from that point on we just have this replica. It just has Liverpool 2018/19 engraved onto it whereas the real one that stays with UEFA has the other winners names on it. 

The one we kept after Istanbul was the real one. It has every winner from Milan 94 to Liverpool 05's names on it.

Before 2008/09 when the rules changed, teams used to keep the real one for 10 months and then keep a slightly smaller replica after that.

[Red Beret]

I wonder why the rule on keeping the original was changed?  Was it because a few clubs were on four I wonder?

[Dubred]

No problem with the club being given replicas etc etc.  Is kinda understanding.

Bottom line though, original trophy in the Anfield cabinet or not.......WE'RE THE FUCKING CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE........6 TIMES!
