What is it with Ev fans at the moment constantly tweeting that everyone hates us? Why do they think we even remotely care? It's like that senior club in the city stuff and turning the Liver building blue. Baffles me why they think it would bother us at all.
The funny thing is that they are the very same people who are also banging on about how everyone is on our side, in our pockets and conspiring to deliver us a supposedly undeserved title win. Now come on you weirdos, either everyone hates us, or everyone loves us and is conspiring with us. You can't have it both ways.
What
is a fact is that we polarise opinion. All genuinely big clubs do. With Liverpool, you either love us or you hate us, but you can never ignore us. Same goes with clubs like United, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Juventus and Bayern Munich. Loved, loathed and feared in equal measure. There is little middle ground.
Clubs who don't attract that kind of polarised opinion tend to be the also rans like Everton. No one is really arsed about them because they are no threat at all. When the rest of the football world can take you or leave you, like they can with the likes of Everton, you basically know you are a club treading water that's seen as no threat whatsoever. People can afford to be ambivalent because they simply don't care about you. On the other hand, once people start hating you you know you are doing something right, because the hate is driven by envy, fear and jealousy.
I often laugh when I see some comments sections where fans of other clubs compliment the BS because they think it gets to us Reds. They only blow smoke up the Bitters' arses because it's so safe to do so. They know Everton are no threat to them and probably never will be. Everton are just the useful idiots who are used by many opposition fans in order to get to Liverpool; the team/club they
do genuinely fear and whose success they dread more than anything else.
