I've not been on this forum or any other for a couple of years, the reason being the number of "superfans" who are still living in the past.
Let's get something straight here, Anfield and Liverpool fc are NOT what they were 30 years ago.
Liverpool fc do not sign players who care about the club or the fans. The majority of players are mercenaries who are only here to pick up their fat wage packet.
Likewise the club do NOT care about the fans. All we are is a bunch of mugs who spend our hard earned cash on some sport we regard as a religion that gives us a sense of belonging because we have little else to keep us interested in life.
The reason anfield is full of whoppers is because lfc wants their money. They come on package tours from all over the world, stay in the Hilton, meet former players and go in the club shop to buy a half and half scarf.
As a supporter who was brought up in the tradition of always backing the team I can see where the superfans are coming from. Booing is wrong.....but today I booed the substitutions.
I am sick of hearing how our support is the best in the world....it isn't and never has been. That is a myth put out by the club to make us feel loved by the people taking us for mugs.
I watch this team this season and it has been destroyed. All of brendan's good work has been undone in one summer.
We were so close last season.Even though I never once thought we'd do it ....it still had me buzzing my tits off when we were beating Norwich, man city etc in that final run in.
this season we have been nothing short of shite. the defence,midfield and attack...every one of them well below par.
we have the laziest bastard of a forward I have ever seen in a red shirt. I do not buy into this " he is trying" bollox. I watched him today and he did fuck all! The next time he sets off a rocket I hope he is strapped tightly to it and it sends him back to Italy.
I am not one to slag the team off in public, it just shows lfc up. But today I flipped and I am sure that's what happened with the other few thousand who booed as well. It's what you call frustration after going so close last season and now looking like a mid table side at best.
I've come across you superfans over the years. happy clappy whoppers who would clap balottelli if all he did was crouch down and have a shit by the corner flag.
I've been there when teams/players/decisions under dalglish, souness, evans, houllier, rafa and hodgson have been booed. sometimes the boss isn't right. you can only take the bullshit so long and if he is fucking it up he needs to know we are not happy.
end of rant and I expect to be told to fuck off to goodison!
