Glad to see you change your tune
Come on mate, that was for another thread, leave it in there eh? The lads not wrong when it comes to this thread however.
I've not been a football fan long in terms of my life, only really got into it once I hit my teens in 2003, 13 years old and learning about the history of the club, the current players and the past, the prospects, the ins and outs of the how a football club even works, but one thing that never ever left me was that feeling of belonging whenever my auld fella took me to Anfield.
I'm 26 now, 27 come August, i've felt highs and lows in life, a lot of lows that I don't bare even thinking about now, but again, the one thing that's never left me, is the love I feel for LFC. The love I feel and the sense of belonging I feel whenever I'm stood in Anfield, singing as much as my throat will allow, cheering, feeling happy, and at the same time disappointment. Disappointment not with the team, but with what I've yet to see us accomplish on the pitch.
When you look at what Klopp is doing at the minute, it's a fucking miracle, I don't say that lightly either, he invested in the summer and got us something we've all be crying out for in Mané, a solid defender to cover for the first choice in Klavan, and more importantly, he's focused on building for the future, something that we've needed for a long long time, we've needed to see more of the youth coming through, Rafa tried the best he could to push some through, so did Kenny and Rodgers but with Klopp, you really get the feeling that he is giving the youth a go, he's trusting in their abilities more than the previous 3 seemed to and throwing them in at the deep end. People will probably disagree with me on that but it's all opinions at the end of the day.
As for off the field, this club has hit rock bottom at points, and momentous highs at others, the Hicks and Gillett Saga and absoloute shitstain on the history we have, but one thing that times like this have shown is that at the end of the day, we still all stand together, disagreements? fine, in-fighting on occasion? Yeah ok, but at the end of it all, we've all stood arm in arm, linked to each other through one true love and that feeling of belonging to a bigger family that the club has brought us all.
We may not win the title this season, may not win it even next, but we're damn well going to try, and that's something that no one can deny, This season really does feel like a tutorial, with next season being the main game, so bring the fucker on, lets finish this one on a high, we may not catch Chelsea but lets make them feel the pressure eh?
Fucking bring it on.
