Its crazy isn't it. I wonder if the roles were reversed would we want the same ting, but I doubt it. Some would, but it appears the majority of Utd fans want to lose.
The thing is, if they did win or draw, it doesn't necessarily mean we win the league.
You look after your own interests. The ones wanting them to lose will be the same ones moaning about signings and lack of quality next season if they don't get top 4. The longer you're out of the CL the harder it becomes to get back in it.
Nah.. there's one thing I can say about us- we don't give a feck about things like these. And that's my honest observation from basically 30 years of watching us.
It's even discouraged amongst our lot by two things:
- Supporters with that attitude are shamed immediately and roundly- with the label of acting "smalltime". Effective crowd-control in full flow.
- The fact that we take the absolute piss out of our neighbors and our nemesis up the road for that mindset and attitude.
These two self-correcting measures ensure we stay well away from bitterness. We won't begrudge you success, but we will take the piss out of you all the way! Our success comes first. We concentrate on ourselves; and I'm glad I am a Liverpool supporter, because much of my outlook on life is shaped but what we believe as a group.
Not born and bred, but adopted- and I wear the T-shirt, literally!
