I usually like hearing from Dave Mooney, equating the Hillsborough chants with the "bus attack" that merged into attacking someone can get in the bin.

We have our share of idiots who act like a prick at times, but fairs fair Dave

Bloody hell ! What a fucking mad shout from someone who you think is a decent and fairminded fan.

Hillsborough chants, bus attacks, poverty shouts, viscous vitriol…

We can play Top Trumps and make a list of the worst to the least worst behaviours and all probably broadly agree.

I’m not sure it gets us very far and nobody is better for the experience. Mooney is essentially distancing himself from the bad elements of the City fanbase. I don’t blame him for not engaging fully in some kind of moral maze. It’s not his job. He’s not their spokesperson.

It's not about top trumps in my mind.

It's not me normalising the bus attack or saying our fans are saints in any respect. Mention the coins thrown from both sections to other fans or any element of the dickhead behaviour that comes to a City Liverpool game now.

He's on a Liverpool podcast speaking to Liverpool fans. It's not on and I thought he was better than that

Just finished watching Jürgen, Part 3, and it just brought home how lucky we are. We too often take him for granted nowadays I think but the man is a living legend at 3 separate football clubs! How many other people can say the same?

No matter the lows we experience, no matter the decisions we debate and no matter the signings we make, we will remain on the ride of our lives whilst he is here.

Thanks to everyone involved for pulling it together. It’s a superb piece of work. The passion and love each and every person interviewed has for the man is a testament to what an amazing human he is. When it comes to football I wouldn’t swap him for anything, whether that be other managers, other players, other owners or a cabinet full of trophies.

He is unique. Cherish him. The worst thing we could do is drive ourselves insane by obsessing about the tough times we may be facing in the moment, and the problems we might face in the future. Sometimes we just need to take a step back and appreciate the journey we’ve been on, and in doing so we will see that every little thing’s going to be alright.

Have a Merry Christmas everyone!

Actually been a huge loss that in addition to Robbo stopping, Ben Johnson has also almost disappeared. TAW could've done without those two things happening at the same time.

Another shout out for the Agony show here.  It’s such a good mix of contributors and Ben Johnson is the perfect host for it.  I really want to know what the “perfect son” did for Christmas now!  I was with Rob in thinking he needs to stick up for himself more and theres no way he shouldn’t see his parents on Christmas morning just because her sister was over ;D

It’s also great to listen to squad-based chat that’s about as removed from twitter-tantrums as you can get. Going through the whole process of recruiting, squad build and prioritising rather than crying about spending someone else’s money.

Finally got around to listening to the most recent Agony. Absolutely fantastic. Was pissing myself laughing in public as I listened to it on the bike. Ben Johnno is amazing on it, but the whole group of four is perfect for the show.

I really enjoyed Dockings interview

Didnt reralise he was an ex-Rawkite

I remember being quite traumatised by that Coventry defeat where Fowler took the lead and James fucked it up. Im surprised it didnt really get a mention.

Hadn’t realised quite what a bogey team Coventry were back then!

I do remember the 5-1 just before Christmas that he mentioned and obviously the Ndlovu hat trick at Anfield too. But yeah, that defeat in April 97 was the day after United had lost at home to Derby and I think we’d have gone top with a win.

The Cup defeat in 98 was mentioned, and we also lost at Highfiele Road in April 96, the weekend after we’d had the 4-3 with Newcastle which was the most Liverpool thing ever back then.

I think we were the team to relate them though, and sealed it with a Gary Mac free kick so at least we got the last laugh.

Probably because they don’t want to talk about the ownership. I don’t mind redmen tv, even though I don’t think neither of them represent all fans views.

It would be refreshing for them to talk about the elephant in the room.

In true LFC tradition Robbo hasnt been replaced. Yesterdays PMP was hosted by Mo Stewart, I like Mo, but hes not host material. 
His opening sentence was I didnt see the first half.  :butt
These days the Pink (post match show) is a half cut Gibbo, the host, slurring his way through a shambles of a show.

Pretty crap representation of what actually happened on yesterday’s Post Match Pint mate. Mo didn’t watch the first half because his Internet was playing up, which can’t exactly be helped can it?

I read your post and thought “What on earth? Why wouldn’t he have watched the first half if he was hosting the post-match show”, so to then actually watch the show and find out that it was because of something out of his control, I would say that was a crap and unfair representation of what actually happened, particularly given you were following on from saying that he’s “not host material”. It gives an impression of something completely different to the reality, that he’s not good at hosting and he didn’t even watch the first half yesterday (bangs head against wall).

Don't subscribe to video, so haven't seen PMP, but the pink was OK yesterday, helped a lot by Neil appearing on it. It didn't hold back on how truly dreadful the performance was. However, Gibbons should leave it with looking for positives when there really aren't any at all.

I think it's a shame that Johnno isn't involved more, either on Pinks or the ratings a few times recently. As I've said previously, it's not helped TAW that he's disappeared around the same time Robbo left.

Also, where's John Milburn these days? Feels like it's ages since he's been on anything.
