That chant by Wilshere was nothing in comparison to this instance, too.

The untouchable, state funded Manchester City, folks.

Exactly. The difference is that this involves Manchester City.

The first one,I don't include songs that we only ever sing whilst playing a specific side.


My brain must be mush to have forgotten Internazionale. ;D

Don't know if my memory is playing tricks, but I'm pretty sure the Internazionale song used to be:

'Bring on yer Manchester United
Bring on yer Cockneys by the score
And we'll take em two by two
And kick the fuck outa you (or something along those lines)
Cos Liverpool's the team that we adore'

Nearly right ;)

Remember in one of the fanzines around the early 90's there was a list of "acceptable" songs, had to be done as the anti united stuff was getting belted out a lot no matter who we were playing, especially at away games, would often hear "we're not playing man united" whenever a bunch of bad wools started "who the fuck are man united"

It's funny how they won the title a couple of days ago and already no one cares, it's not even mentioned on the BBC football page anywhere.

Because they are an irrelevance , they have no wide fan base not even past cheadle! So no clicks on website, no advertising revenues. So every story that creates traffic is down to two us and united , we both do well they get traffic, either does badly they get traffic.

There is no real media bias against them just a narrative either way because we are both proper clubs ( as much as I detest united and their fan base )whilst city will always be like Anzi Macklacka or whatever they were called , rich club but never ever a big club.

Oh and a bunch of mercenary twats to boot.

Not really only a handful of people care about it.

The bigger story is we lost by 1 point not city winning it by 1 point.

This is all just a misunderstanding, then; but misunderstandings are easy to avoid if you engage your brain and your decency and your love for your own club rather than your hatred for another.

The “victims” part is easy: anyone who’s been around English football for the last thirty years knows exactly what that means. Disgusting and needless; Manchester City should apologise outright on behalf of their players and management for that one, but they won’t and they won’t be obliged to. Which tells you all you need to know about the state of the world in 2019, and English football in particular. A thousand Kopparberg cans couldn’t compare, if only because physical damage is tangible and tends to be punished. The likes of this is far more insidious, and has been for 30 years.

“Battered in the streets” carries a little more in the way of plausible deniability, but let’s be honest: it’s definitely a dig at Sean Cox, and a pathetic, senseless one at that. Liverpool supporters being attacked in Kiev by local hooligans is, in itself, a disturbing thing to be signing about. But the haste with which club and fans alike have backed away from the association of those words with Sean Cox is telling. It carries with it a tacit admission that a line has been crossed, and it has. Yet again; as it has been on countless occasions since 1989.

“Victims of it all”. Think about the etymology of the term “victims” in this specific context. Its genesis, as much as anything, was vested in outrage that the people of Liverpool wouldn’t just go away after Hillsborough, but instead remained conspicuous on the national stage for many years afterwards campaigning for truth and justice. That was what rankled: the fact that they didn’t go away, their continuing profile.

If you think about Liverpool supporters who were “battered” last season: which ones had the most profile? Whose name was on a banner that club captain Jordan Henderson and his teammates hoisted in the Stadio Olimpico after qualifying for the final? For whose family and medical bills were Liverpool supporters (and players) all over social media and the nation’s TV screens for weeks and months appealing for assistance? The fans attacked in a restaurant in Kiev, whose names were never released as far as I know and were barely even mentioned again by the mainstream media after the 25th of May? Or the one whose injuries were so grave that he’s still learning to walk and talk again? The one who had a fundraiser played in his honour in front of 27,000 people as recently as last month?

The fact that Liverpool, supporters and players alike, have responded so enthusiastically to the plight of this man and his family is exactly the kind of fodder that has long since attracted the sarcastic, sneering accusations of victimhood at the people of Liverpool; not a group of largely anonymous supporters set upon in a restaurant. With all due respect to their ordeal, which must have been frightening, it had no real profile nationally, and what it did have certainly didn’t form part of any campaign. If a group of supporters, drunk on their own hatred and thirst for “banter” and a serious rival, were going to tire of hearing about the plight of a Liverpool supporter or supporters to the point where they were moved to sing about someone being “battered in the streets” in retaliation, who was it realistically going to be?

People like this have never understood that the tragedies of which they make such light at the altar of points-scoring and “banter”, be it 39 people at Heysel, 96 at Hillsborough or a single individual ahead of Liverpool’s game with Roma last season, could have just as easily been any match-going supporter. They never will, either; so be it, there’s very little anyone can do to change that. But those players…wow. Even if you believe that they were simply copying a fan chant and didn’t fully understand the meaning of it, to sing proudly about a fellow professional from another team being injured when you’ve just won a league title is both pitiful and stupid beyond belief.

I can’t speak for anyone else, but having fought for the best part of 30 years for even a sliver of recognition that 96 Liverpool supporters died at a football game through no fault of their own, I doubt Liverpudlians are all that “offended” by this. This is simply the latest in a long line of casual baiting, and I can only imagine you’ve developed a pretty thick skin by now, especially when that kind of abuse is coming from small clubs like Everton and Manchester City. I would like to think that Sean Cox and his family are not “offended” either (“disappointed”, I believe is the word Martin Cox used). “Offended” is the wrong description.

Now, “angry”, on the other hand…that might be a bit closer to the mark. People have been wondering since Sunday how Liverpool can close the gap on these next season: well, having had to eat shit in congratulating them on winning the league only to hear that they’ve been singing about a fan (or fans) of the club being beaten up and one of Liverpool’s players being injured, I would say that Jürgen Klopp, a man who mentions anger a lot, will be missing a trick if he doesn’t try to harness the folly of those City players into something tangible for next season. This is a game of small details, and if it’s going to come down to a single point again, vengeance could make all the difference.

But first, to Madrid; and a trophy of which City, to use their words, have “won fuck all”.

Every time they play every fan at every ground shouts “cheat” every time they touch the ball this makes a difference on tv on line and globally it fucks up the “brand” that’s what they would do in Germany for example but the English teams fans are too busy scoring points of each other to see the damage this club is doing

Cheers feller, always wondered when that 'only sing about them when we're playing them' rule came in, cos we didn't do it much back in the day, but we certainly did it.

A song about their owners would do nothing. It would be seen as tit for tat by the vast majority. A banner may have more impact but doubt it's likely to be picked up by the mainstream media who have a vested interest in protecting the Premier League's reputation.

Beating them home and away next season would probably be more impactful on many levels. That's how we hurt them. That's how we shut them up.

Win the CL next season and use this anger to fuel our title bid next season. Everyone at the club should use it. Starting at the Community Shield if we get to play them. When they rock up at Anfield next season in the league it should be the most hostile atmosphere they've ever faced. Without anyone crossing the line, it should make the CL QF in 2018 look like a visit to Craven Cottage.

Beat them on the pitch and sing songs about our players, our manager and our history.

According to SSN, the F.A. are saying no action will be taken, as the video breaks no rules.

Bringing the game into disrepute is their usual favourite line with this sort of thing isn't it?  Only this time not?  Because it's City and they're frightened of their financial clout or too close to the FA summer holidays and they don't want to piss about with such an awkward issue?

Bemused to say the least.

Just don't get how with so many in the media there is little or no consideration of the fact that these are professional players singing about fans getting battered on the streets - now whether that is about Sean Cox directly or a reference to unprovoked attacks on Liverpool fans in Kiev or of any other fans at any time or place, the players and staff trivialising such acts and taking delight in them is morally reprehensible and totally unacceptable.

But it's about Liverpool fans so that's alright then innit.

Yep, indeed.

It's unfortunate that MCFC do not feel burdened with shame or embarrassment. On occasions like this it would take great leadership to rebuke the prima-donnas that provide the fuel of clubs avarice for success, but they don't have any. Not a single person at that club will denounce that display of professional perniciousness.

THIS is how they choose to celebrate winning the league?! Not with a song about Guardiola, no songs about their journey to the title, nothing about City's past successes, nope, just a song about Liverpool fans being beaten up and Mo Salah getting injured. I find their obsession with Liverpool utterly bizarre, we seem to have really got into their heads somewhere down the line. I guess we are the stick by which they measure their own relevance and they're coming up short. That said, if anyone should have that kind of seething resentment and bitterness it should be us, shouldn't it? We're the ones who are missing out on our biggest dreams because of their financial cheating. All the while our manager and our players are nothing but dignified about it and our fans wouldn't even dream of singing about them.

But if there's one thing this season has taught me above all else it's how glad I am that I support Liverpool. From the way we conduct our business off the field, to the lads we have playing for us every week, to our supporter culture, we are just miles better than any other club in this country. No wonder they fucking hate us!

Well I just hope that our club sends a complaint to the FA and tells them that they are completely incompetent. Every article I have read is disgusted by the song but yet the FA see absolutely nothing wrong.

City have made a complete laughing stock of their club by defending the indefensible.

They are a classless bunch of assholes who, rather than acknowledging a worthy competitor who pushed them right to the end, they feel that it is ok to come out with childish songs.

I thought that the Sun was the piss of the earth but now they have been replaced by classless City.

The true sign of a champion is somebody who appreciates the strength of the opposition.

Well done City. Such a scummy club.

Our first competitive game of the season could be against this shower for the Community shield.
It's true to say that if Shankly had told us to invade Poland we'd be queuing up 10 deep all the way from Anfield to the Pier Head.

A song about their owners would be nice...

Its essential I feel.

A clever song that points out their financial cheating and the human rights abuses of the murderous régime that props them up would be great. They're a PR vehicle of a regime that's responsible for the murder and starvation of thousands in Yemen along with the horrors in their own country.

Nothing can damage them more. They can sing lies and fantasy about Liverpool all they want but the truth hurts so much more on every level. PR my arse.

Celebrating a win whilst riding on the backs of slaves would make an excellent banner.
Yep, Lush has summed it up there.
It is a machine. It is more stupid than we are. It will not stop us from doing stupid things.
