The amount of ex-regulars jibbing it, ex-year-on-year ST holders at that - which I've never been - looks a real cause for concern now.
I think this is more important than the result yesterday to be honest.
I've been to games where we've lost but still had a great day out with mates - come home hoarse and smiling about everything other than the result.
But when the ticket prices are ridiculous and the atmosphere is shite and supporters disjointed, then it's get's to the point where you have to say, fuck it. Enough is enough.
Yeah, last season's run was phenomenal - but we knew we were genuinely watching something astonishing in Suarez. I don't believe our success last year was down to one man alone - but I do know that I couldn't take my eyes off the mad little bastard. Our mad little bastard.
Who's there now to do the same?
We all love Phil, but he's not Luis.
Atmosphere at Anfield is dead except for 'the big games' - but then the team don't get going.
Smaller games atmosphere is pathetic and our reputation is just that - just a shadow of former glories.
Aways and European games are the only places where the support has been consistently brilliant. Until this past year IMO.
Money talks and so do the fans it brings in.
All round the fields of Anfield Road,
Where once you could turn up and pay on the gate (and afford to pay)
They've got merchandise to sell
It's all tat but what the hell
Pay your money, sit down be quiet, now fuck off home
Tough times.
