Here's my two penny's worth on football but articulating on Liverpool. Wrote it yesterday but I think it can also be put in here.
I'll say something that might make me sound like a sad bastard, wum, controversial, deluded but personally I don't give a fuck because I am going to write my heart out in the best possible manner I can.
At the moment, I don't know why but I'm starting to grow very worried. The love I have for Liverpool FC will never die but I feel the connection is wearing out. The plague of those who talk nonsense from calling Kenny to resign, to slagging off our team for every single mistake, decision, tactic is growing and what really disappointed me on Saturday was, the same aroma has reached Anfield. The atmosphere at Anfield that once made it a fortress is disappearing. The flags, banners, chants, fans from famous European nights to even letting our tremendous support being heard against Palace, Reading, Wolves. Now, we can't bother to out-sing Wigan with their few fans at the away end at our own stadium. To be honest, all the old ways that made Liverpool are disappearing. Why ? Because we really don't believe. We can't be arsed to give a shit of singing our heart out to show the team we still support them and stand by them through thick and thin but have the audacity to call ourselves fans by coming onto forums and bashing every single mistake because we are a bunch of world class expert analysts. Why should the players perform for us when we can't give a rats arse of showing our support for them when it really matters. The same people who refuse to actually have their own voice be heard around Anfield have the balls to come here and say their team performed abysmally when they can't believe in them till the end and already accept defeat. I used to love it. The roar of The Kop, whether it was travelling or Anfield and would fill my heart with pride and just ensure the passion I had but those times seems to drifting away. A couple of people will try to start a chant or so but are now actually being hushed down. God, this is really depressing. Anfield used to make the opposition shit bricks but the whole state of things at our stadium should be given thought. 3 words : RECLAIM THE KOP.
All the traditions of what made Liverpool are disappearing. The fans who really care are being out-spoken by the majority and the sky-generation are having their say be heard because they think they are important if they can call BBC or Talksport. Well, you know what - fuck every single one of them. The minority of those who actually support Liverpool will not be drowned by the voice of the the incompetent, impatient bastards who moan instead of support.
You bastards cry to get rid of Kenny. Telling the king to get out because he messes up his tactics, made some signings that have not paid off and is not ruthless. Erm, where were you when he was winning trophy after trophy for us. Where were you when he provided himself as player-manager though he had no experience but love for the club made him persuade his reluctance. Where were you when he was stood admidst all chaos to bring the most stability that was possible to be brought after Hillsborough and helped not just the club but the city of Liverpool. You were all in awe but modern football has deluded your beady minds in the age of today. Instant success is all you want. If not brought, change is the only possibility. Tell you what - if that's what you want, go support Chelsea and Man City who might keep on changing managers to your liking till success isn't bought. Kenny Dalglish doesn't need to prove anything, he has already earned all the respect and commitment he needs from those who are loyal. He has just brought to you the first cup in 6 years, trying to make a team which was shattered when he took over. Fine, the league campaign isn't going to plan but there is still the FA Cup to look forward to, CC is won, we are in Europe and there are 7 games left in the league to look forward to. Just fucking believe like you did at Istanbul. 3-0 down, yet we had hope and sang our hearts out to You'll Never Walk Alone to AC Milan. Now, we can't even sing it while losing to Wigan at home ? Fans of nowadays have failed to gather the concept of You'll Never Walk Alone, I guess.
I swear, even calling for Kenny to resign should be considered blasphemy.
The players are under-performing... Fine, debatable. I can understand the frustration that is relayed but the reaction to demonstrate it is way beyond belief. When you spend 100m on a team, it's easy to look at those stupid net figures and where we should be finishing but ever had a look that in those 100m, there have been 5 to 6 new signings. Some young, some at their peak. Under-performing to expectations ? Understandably, yes but give them time. The same idiots refused to learn their lesson with Lucas. I mean, Lucas practically was booed against Fulham AT ANFIELD. Those same 'so called fans' keep on saying Henderson is shit, will refuse to amount to anything, should be sold. Well you know what ? Piss off. I'll give him time. 21 years old, has the pressure to fill the boots of Gerrard when he retires and has to justify the 22m price tag. Andy Carroll is pretty much the same. You're bring in new players to create a whole new team. If there was only one or two players being introduced, fine but we are playing with very new formations and tactics so stop being incompetent. If you're going to boo them, why should they even care to play better or improve when they have been objected to criticism by those they should be adored by.
Quick to take the piss, aren't them. The same people who will try to demoralise by posting the same stuff, 'we are shit', 'ha! progress' and bollocks but keen to praise Kenny when we beat United or Chelsea, Everton, whoever.
Call me a super-fan, frankly I don't give a toss and yes I'll be biased and will support Kenny no matter what. The same hypocritical fans will come here before every forum before a game and post those annoying stats such as, 'we've won 9 games in which Carroll has started' and at HT, if still 0-0 call him shit, useless, unworthy of Liverpool's No.9.
Yesterday, Kenny said we need that wee bit of luck. Read between the lines you impatient twats who are quick enough to criticize everything contributing to you mood. We have had arguably our most crucial player injured in Lucas, since early November. We have had to deal without regular CB pairing of Agger and Skrtel for 2 months. Johnson out injured now. Gerrard out for most of the early half and the same case with Bellamy disappearing every now and then. The same people who will come on here - show their knowledge that they have nicked off Twatter and say we have hit the post 15/20+ times. 3 games is indeed fatiguing. The times of 08/09 are gone when we had that depth to shatter the defences of United, Madrid and Villa.
Modern football. That's what changing everything our club stood for and what I loved out club most for. Fuck all the clihés such as 'Patience is Key', 'Instant Success' is not the answer. Poor decisions, silly mistakes. They are all to be learnt from. Were all you twats are undermining the club born perfect ?
Seriously, it really pains me. I swear, it's almost depressing what we've come to. Times should be good. The Kings is back at the realm, we've won a cup, qualified for Europe, got promising youngsters coming through, league can be improved next year if we can get one/two quality players and the lads gel in more, no more H&G.
Just hope, pray, believe, try to hang on to what Liverpool FC stand for and we'll get there. Ups and downs, just keep calm and believe in Kenny and Liverpool.
But then again, that's my opinion and my feelings of course.
