Topic: Our fantastic away support

[mickl]

“It was great in the upper tier where I was, I’m nearly 70, and was singing my bloody head off like the group of young lads in front of me and the wife. The feeling to be part of such a raucous away following never leaves you, and when those goals went in, well I forgot my age and acted my shoe size 😂”


I was in Mönchengladbach, invaded the pitch and took a piece of it as a souvenir. Kept it alive for many years.

Shall we have an over 70s meet up? Can you recommend a suitable care home, soft-furnishings, washable carpets, plenty of toilets, ear trumpets - that kind of thing?

😂😂😂😂😂 not quite at that stage yet, I was also in Gladbach in 73, hence the name of my moniker. And they say us oldies should be replaced in the ground, not whilst I’ve got life in me.

At the game on Sunday I thought it was loud but never appreciated just how loud until I went through the last 15 minutes after we got home.  The roads of Islington absolutely bouncing after too.  And loads and loads in their teens and twenties. Awesome.

No way, “We are loyal supporters, fanatics every one”, as the song goes. Push out the young ones instead. Anyone who sits on their hands and is too “Cool” to cheer ours team!

Love it - this is exactly what we need more of.

Think you mean "the fields of anfield road", mate

"You're just a shit Andy Caroll" 

I was lucky enough to be at Carrow Road to watch the genius that was Suarez, embarrass the Norwich fans.    Nunez the other night was up there with that.

[DangerScouse]

Surprisingly very subdued.

[GinKop]

Watching on a stream and all I can hear are our lads and lasses.

It was an old school tunes day, yesterday

Nice to see a Liverbird upon my chest, getting more of an airing these days, even if they get the verses in the wrong order and miss some out!


The Liverpool boys are in town.

Decent away end yesterday, plenty getting involved around us and good to see some of the older songs getting an airing.

[Pata]

Very enjoyable yesterday - positive with a good range of songs. My son's first game and it was a nice introduction.

[Alf]

Enjoyed that yesterday. Good variety of songs and plenty of volume.

[monkeyharris]

The slow tempo Poor Scouser Tommy at the start of the game was the best its been sung in years!

first verse sounded incredible, and then most of us fumbled our way through the rest lol



really enjoyable away end. my first league away in about 18 months due to life and finding it too awkward to ask people for spares 

[scouse neapolitan]

Anyone try to get the drone going?  Yeah I know. Home and away threads I'm droning on about it.

[elbow]

I know a final isn't technically away, but by god that end was magnificent.

When the boys needed it most, you raised them up.

Outstanding.

lol, not a scarf in sight.

CHOPPER hates scarves, bad wool stuff and all that.  Mad at the end for the second time in 6 days.  Awesome.

Think I've done my hamstring in the celebration

Sloshed is putting it mildly. Like the other aways this season, great city, sound reception, no hassles and you could drink right the way through the game and get your money back on your glass (donated mine to the new urchins). Same old faces in the same old states


 PS: Absinthe is a hell of a drink.

But did you take a scarf? That's the burning question.


Prague is great, isn't it. My favourite city.

New Urchins? 🤔

Needs to be said that we were top drawer yesterday, easily one of the best away atmospheres all season, much needed after the doom and gloom of our home support recently. 2 away wins in a row, 2 more to go.

Up the reds.

You mean to say they all didn’t go down to the concourse at half time and post on an internet forum about how shit we are…? Call themselves supporters.

Sorry, what? I'm talking from personal experience, I'm lucky enough to go to every match home and away and was just saying that the 'support' yesterday was good, really good.

Ah. That's backfired.
I was taking a swipe at people on here mate, not you!

He's being tongue in cheek there, mate.

If you are at every match you probably haven't been in the half-time threads in here. It's those meady is commenting on.

Got ya, apologies, I'll use the excuse that I'm still probably drunk from yesterday

Fulham is always one of the best away games. Remember when we used to get the whole Putney Road end. The Yossi late goal and the Torres bounce great memories.

What a fucking away that was when Yossi smashed it home. 👏

[Shanklygates]

And when we won 4-2 thanks to Igor . He didn't know what to do when he scored. We.were on MOTD that night as they showed quite a lot of the fans. Joseph got sent off and we won it late. The stand was literally bouncing

We've never had the full Putney End as far as I can remember? We had our usual allocation and the rest of it was the 'neutral' area which just happened to be full of Reds anyway

[SamLad]

all of our fans at the game yesterday were fucking fantastic. 

well done, all of you!

[Fromola]

Other than when they first came up to the Prem when that end was still terracing.

[Jm55]

Was a great day yesterday, best away atmosphere of the season that I’ve been to I’d say.
