And I'm not talking about tonight.
I'm talking about full stop. The option to fuck football - the sport that has taken up so much of my time and money that I often don't even have - to fuck it off completely. It would be easy to quote the famous of all the Shankly quotes at a time like this. So easy, it's not worth me typing it out. But these American owners have come here pretending to know the values of this club. But it's not something you can see from abroad. It's not something you can get into. It's a way of life. You earn a living, you eat food, you drink drink and you support Liverpool Football Club.
We knew we had to move on amd the irony is we knew we had to move on to something that is so anti-everything most of us grew to love about the sport. Artsy-fartsy and prancy bullshit or not, it was the working-classes haven from reality. A glimmer of hope, a bit of joy. A fucking great way to end a shit week, to spend a couple of hours with the lads and support players that represented your area. You had a loyalty to your city. To your area. When Liverpool beat Manchester United or City, Newcastle or Birmingham, we were getting one over on that city. Now what have we become? Billionaires playthings, following overpaid primadonnas who show no loyalty so why the fuck should you?
Gillett and Hicks appear to be the extreme of what is wrong with modern-day footballing owners. Clearly only in it for the money, looking at every avenue in order to bleed everybody in sight dry. All week, the argument against putting our foot down and making a stand is "you don't want to piss them off". Fuck it. Are we gonna let these c*nts ruin the finest fucking football club in the land while we sit on our hands?
The shit has hit the fan. Time to show these Yank twats that they've picked the wrong fight.
