Really need to get a good salah song was the only one in the front singing the salah la la version everyone else was on th kolo shite. Firmino deserves a proper song too criminally underated

Hats off to the travelling kop. Could be heard loud and clear throughout. Sounded like fun.

Fantastic away last night, great young crowd at the front and some well known faces throughout. Nothin makes an away end like a baltic, midweek game in the middle of nowhere. Concourse was boss at halftime (hope the lad who lifted me up on his shoulders has a good back doctor) and the celebrations for the goals were madness.

Liked the new Mo Salah song creeping down from the top to the tune of A Horse with No Name but couldnt get a grip on the lyrics before the chorus. I swear that lad has a fair few great songs going around so I have no clue why we keep tryin to rehash the Kolo Toure one for him? The Pharaoh deserves better than that.

Great day all round like, fantastic first step onto the away ladder under my own name an an all!

How did you manage to get on?

Sucked off John Henry round the back of The Carlsberg Dugout and he gave me the credit as a tip.

Sounded great on the telly. I've said this before but going away is so much better than Anfield. Proper songs, proper crowd and not many day trippers. Shows the club how it could be.

Fucking hell, I know some people like to make a trip out of aways rather than in and out but that was 10 days ago now !

Sat in the Stoke end for this one. Loads of Liverpool fans dotted around. Frustrating not to be able to join in with the songs!

Ha, ha, I realise now my poor command of the English language. 🙂

Couple of absolute horrible cockney reds near the back that were an embarrassment to our great support.

Small time gay chants and abuse at Albion players. Also, abused the majority of our team throughout the match. Really wish I said something but not worth the hassle.

I know they are the minority but it is 2017 FFS so grow up and support your team.

AndreTheMidget · « **Reply #8135 on:** December 22, 2017, 10:10:22 pm »

Block 20 was horrific, barely even an English accent let alone local one! 22 seemed livelier and a bit of pyro which was good. Nice reminder of why I’m going off going though Arsenal is always like this.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #8136 on:** December 22, 2017, 10:34:45 pm »

We were in there but said the same. Not many sang (we did) and loads looked very out of place.

You can spot the first-timers as they don't know where the seat numbers are!

Though they are hard to read

AA3JM21 · « **Reply #8137 on:** December 22, 2017, 11:05:57 pm »

Thought Block 23 was decent .. that kid with the Jeremy Corbyn chants all game was boss! Haha

redgriffin73 · « **Reply #8138 on:** December 23, 2017, 01:19:44 am »

Block 21 was pretty good, think I've broke my elbow after some guy headbutted it when Salah scored!

However there were a couple of Arsenal fans in there and one I was ready to smack when he celebrated their third like a dickhead. He was with a couple of Reds but they weren't English.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #8139 on:** December 23, 2017, 04:02:47 am »

Red who clearly have no idea

As always there, there were loads where you think "How did you get your tickets?" - like a family from the Singapore branch of the OSC; Mo's "twin" from Egypt (doesn't know him); and family after family all seated together - which suggests first sale, corporates or "partners"

But nothing out of the ordinary for the Emirates!

Not a patch on Stoke a few weeks ago last night.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #8141 on:** January 2, 2018, 10:21:26 am »

I was near front down by the corner flag and John Walters got it BIG time during his warm up yesterday.

To be fair he was laughing his head off and took it all in good fun. The other Burnley subs were laughing their heads off at the abuse he was getting.

Great laugh and good to see.

Could see something going on down there and wondered what it was!

What is with that weird empty box in the middle of the away end btw? It had a handful in it, one wearing a Burnley hat. Is it corporates or something?

I always thought it was for players and staff’s family and friends

Shanklygates · « **Reply #8144 on:** January 2, 2018, 01:40:52 pm »

Danny Ward was in there, and a couple of coaches from LFC, and a handful of othere, plus a Burnley fan, but most if it is empty. Does seem odd. Maybe the corporate overflow bit??

Clint Eastwood · « **Reply #8147 on:** January 22, 2018, 10:49:39 pm »

As I said in the post-match. It's Monday night, and it's dark and freezing. Monday Night Football is bullshit because of this, fans having to travel to Swansea on the worst day of the week at the worst time of year. Not surprised it was quiet, and that's including the home support despite winning. Apart from the end of course.

Yes it was freezing cold & we were fucking awful.

AndreTheMidget · « **Reply #8149 on:** January 22, 2018, 10:57:04 pm »

Shit place to go to, shit ground, we usually play shit there and pretty much always have a shit kick off time there. Add to that a shit allocation! They can’t fuck off soon enough and thankfully that’s going to be this season.

I’m not on the Thomas Cook away tickets gravy train and have not had any away credits for many a year. Therefore, I have no chance of qualifying.

Sorry for commenting but I didn’t appreciate that being cold,playing rubbish and the home support not singing meant that you could not support your team. Modern Football confuses me in my ‘70s and ‘80s utopia.

Shite performance from everyone involved with club yesterday.

redgriffin73 · « **Reply #8152 on:** January 23, 2018, 11:02:39 am »

Was good to hear the new Salah song (the James one that is) at least.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #8153 on:** January 23, 2018, 01:35:33 pm »

Was about to say the same thing! That got a good airing - but clearly didn't come across on TV! It was strange that a lot didn't sing anything else before/after but joined in with that. Otherwise, there were a few of us trying but when you are surrounded by first-timers (many Welsh) and regulars who won't sing, it's hard. And yes the team didn't help. Not one of our best performances but nice to see the players appreciative that we had come and tried - esp Ox. Stood clapping us for a good few minutes at the end - unless he was looking for Perrie!

Welshred · « **Reply #8154 on:** January 23, 2018, 01:44:46 pm »

The Salah song came across once or twice really loudly, but the rest of the time you couldn't hear much, even from Swansea as well.

Sung at a decent speed as well, lets see how long that lasts.

Was that a new Salah song today? Sounded like Mo Salah, Mo Salah chorus.
