welcoming the coach Saturday

[kop77]

This Saturday (10th September) will see the team return to Anfield for the first time this season following the construction of the new Main Stand.
Returning to Anfield for a new season is always a big occasion and a chance for the new signings to experience the famous Anfield atmosphere first-hand.
We’ve planned a team bus greeting, similar to ones we’ve done for finals which have always proved successful. Why? Well, why not? There’s no better time to boost the team’s spirit than the first home game, regardless of who we’re playing. We’ve had a rocky start in the first 3 games so we need to show our support.
A few people have been quick to criticise this, calling it “wool behaviour” and how it should be “saved for big games”. But what about supporting the team in the lead up to those big games? If we aren’t showing our love for the team in every single game how are we even going to get to those finals? I think every game should be treated like a cup final. Go out, give it everything for each and every game and you can win the league.
Remember that semi-final win against Villarreal? Remember what happened before that game? Fans lined the streets and made the sky red as they welcomed the team bus to Anfield.

‘We didn’t expect this result but we believed from the beginning. (..) The 12th player helped us today, our fans, the atmosphere was really amazing – even better than against Dortmund.’
Lovren after the game

And we all know how good that Dortmund game was! Even Klopp said he’d love that for the PL games!
Police approval of the event has been given and extra security will be put into place to make sure everyone is safe. After the greeting the bus, get into the stadium chanting and keep the atmosphere going until the final whistle. So the details you need to know:

4pm (please get down earlier)

Huge well done to Roopa (with Anfield Talk) and Anfield Observer to achieve this. Lets hope this will be a memorable day.

Good shit. Hope we have this for most home games.

"Wool behaviour"

 

What's wrong with some people?

 

Too cool for school cunts.

Agree - could be a catalyst for changing the atmosphere inside the ground too.

Hope it gets egged.

The Red Arrows are on Merseyside this Saturday so something should've been sorted out to have them fly over as well as a RED celebration for the opening of the Main Stand too.

We'll get beat now and look like tits.

Call me old fashioned but something like this i would put in the "Modern football is shit " thread.

 

Im all for more vocal backing inside Anfield on run of the mill matchdays, but hero worship of this current squad at this stage....... Not for me.

[jimmycase]

Dont know why some people are such kiljoys. If fans want to welcome the coach what's wrong with that?

I think it's more about trying to spook the oppo while also getting the singing going early and hopefully carrying it on into the ground.

 

Nothing to do with hero worship.

Load of bollocks

This.

It's fine as long as dickheads don't throw beer cans at the other teams coach like some did against Villareal.

I'd be surprised if it lasted the whole season for this reason.

[Paco]

This.

Is it not more about the fans saying we'll do everything we can to make this a great season now it's up to yous on the pitch to feed it?

[an tha]

anything that gets people up for it is a good thing...the later kick off gives people more time on the ale as well which always helps.

[Tom araya]

Personally,I think it's a good thing to do,anything that can add to the atmosphere gets the green light from me.

[Pureblood]

My gut reaction is it will look manufactured (because is is) and that things like this should happen naturally.

Didn't it have the exact opposite effect against Chelsea when you were going for the title a few years back?

Wasn't Mourinho supposed to have said to his players on the coach  " do you want to be the clowns here today,in this circus "

Not sure if he meant the coach welcoming...more him being the horrible twat he is, that said that horribleness is part of what makes him the winner he is.

Didn't work that time but city dortmund villareal it did. Hopefully it works again on Saturday.

Saw them last week.

 

Enjoyed the show, albeit I do wonder why the state spends millions per year on an aviation version of 'Diversity'.

It's not manufactured. These things happen as naturally as is logically possible.
