I really do doubt you have been a fan for 30 years... I honestly do (based on your opinions). I deplore anyone who speaks unnecessarily negative words, taking into consideration our clubs fortunes have undergone a significant transformation in the last 12 months. I honestly can’t see how anyone who genuinely loves the club… and I really mean love, can be so unconstructive? If you look retrospectively into our situation you should be smiling.
So, we played bad against Swansea… so what!!! Kenny has not even been back a year, the team is growing and we will improve as time pass’s by. This was never going to be a quick fix. Folk need to try and remeber what we are about.
There is nothing unnecessary about my words. I voice concerns when they have to be voiced.
Because I support the club, I want to see it succeed and meet its goals which are focused on CL qualification for next season. When the signs that are developing show that the present team is too weak or compromised by structural faults to meet that target in the face of a strong challenge from the other 5 or 6 clubs competing for the same thing, should you keep quiet if you love the club as you say you do?
I could say the opposite to you and doubt your purported love for the club because you do not express the concerns that are surely on you rmind as well but that you are suppressing. You associate love for LFC with unquestning support and cheering them on. That only applies when you are in the stadium cheering on your team. There is no room for doubt then and the fanbase must provide the wall of sound to push the team on to victory. Ther emust be no jeering no matter how bad we play.
But in an internet forum devoted to discussion of liverpool issues, to adopt the same attitude is infantile and irrational for it defeats the very purpose of this forum. In this venue, you show your love for the club by being concerned to talk about difficult topics - difficult because while you want to believe in the team and the management team, there are signs that cannot be ignroed and must be brouight into the open. I could say that to keep quiet in such circumstances is irresponsible and I could deplore such behaviour as nothing short of moral cowardice and cheap supportism. But I won't. So try to think a litle broader and not so narrowly, OK?
However, let me leave you with these analogies to help explain what I mean:-
If your son shows signs that he may have a drug problem, do you have a word with him or do you give him high 5's and tell him good on ya, and ignore the danger signs?
If your spouse looks disinterested in you but suddenly starts dressing up to meet other men, do you probe further or do you sit back and remind her to wear that nice black dress becuse she looks even better in it as she goes out?
If ythe owners are ruinignt he club through piling on debt, do you keep quiet and suppor the club and watch them pillage the accoputns?
