*Shakes head* Everton again.

Maybe the blue poppies are their way of honouring the dead of the often overlooked Himalayan Front.

[Barney_Rubble]

The mind boggles! Classless and deeply offensive won't even begin to describe it.

 

Do any of these bitter cunts refuse blood transfusion on the grounds that it is red? Fat fucking chance!

[Harry Squatter]

I reckon that when they play roulette they always bet on black

[Paulie Dangerously]

They're just remembering the men who died on those famous Royal Blue poppy fields of Flanders

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Joe Royle on an Echo story on Liverpool's Santa Dash.....wearing a blue Santa jacket, of course. Fucking whoppers.

Tha hat must have been huge though....I bet it could cover a Boeing 747.

This is ace. We should get a TLW army together, and in the early hours of a Sunday morning we should paint all the roads that border Goodison red, ringfencing it, and preventing them from entering because they won't walk across red tarmac.

Good idea - but that useless fat cunt Joe Anderson is burning all the red tarmac off!

Haha, fucking brilliant idea. Can you just imagine.

[Harry Squatter]

It would be like Garlic or a Crucifix to a vampire. Even if they were all vampires they probably wouldnt suck people's blood due to its colour.

[dave u]

Blue poppies, the absolute fucking deadbeats.

 

Same with the Santa suits. I mean, if you don't want to wear a Red santa suit then just don't wear any Santa suit. It's simple. Complete fucking losers, they've got no shame.

[FanchesterCity]

Everton used to wear a red kit. Although they'll probably say it was 'off red'

[Tony Moanero]

Evertonians who won't have anything to do with all things red make me laugh. I regularly wear blue clothing. Bitter cock-heads.

There was a recent rumour about Red Bull wanting to invest in an English club, and Everton were named as one of the possibles. I can just imagine that conversation:

 

 

Red Bull rep: Hello Mr Kenwright. We at Red Bull are thinking of buying your club. We will offer a considerable sum to purchase the club, and we have the resources to invest further significant sums in the team as well as develop a new stadium to take the club into the elite.

 

BGB: Go on.

 

Red Bull rep: Of course, we would become the team's main sponsor and have our name across the shirts, and we would also have stadium naming rights. It's just an idea at present, but we were thinking of maybe calling it the Red Bull Arena. Perhaps the club could become the Everton Re....

 

BGB hangs up and dials another number.

 

BGB: Hello, is that the owner of Blue Stratos? It is? Why hello there, it's Bill K from Everton, and I wanted to talk to you about possibly investing in this esteemed institution...

 

Blue Stratos rep: Dear Mr Kenwright, thank you for your interest, but I'm afraid we don't have the funds for such an investment. Nobody has bought our after shaves since the 80s...

 

BGB: That's why you're perfect for us! You're blue! BLUE! BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Put that on the shirts and the money will come rolling in. It will be just like the good times.

 

Blue Stratos rep: I'm afraid all we can offer is a couple of gift sets...

 

BGB: Send them through my good man!

 

BGB hangs up.

 

BGB: (to his PA) We'll have to make sure Howard doesn't get his hands on them. Best put away the Canada Dry too, just to be on the safe side.

 

BGB's PA: Yes Bill.

 

BGB: (to himself) Bill, you've done it again, old son! Wait till the fans hear of this. They'll LOVE it! Ah, I love the smell of Blue Stratos in the morning. Smell like...victory!

 

BGB's PA: (to herself) Smells more like 'Desperate Old Man' personally, but to each their own I guess.

[LFC64]

Not everyone feels the most appropriate way of displaying respect for the war dead is by wearing a poppy as they feel the meaning has been politically hijacked and it has come to symbolise nationalism and jingoism. A few prefer to wear a white pacifist poppy.  

The there are those who are just apathetic as they probably are to most issues. 

So what was Everton Football Club's message in displaying blue poppies? If they were supposed to be putting on a show of respect for the eyes of the nation or the world then they failed because to most onlookers it would have looked like they at best trivialised the matter and put football tribalism and parochialism before genuine respect.

And they go on about the t-shirts!

 

pffff...

Judging by their attendcance figures it looks this has been happening for most cup games.

[Ezekiel 25:17]

I see there was a spat today between martinez and AVB with Martinez saying in reference to Lukaku contacting Lloris;

 

"Obviously we are waiting for Roberto Soldado to apologise to Phil Jagielka first, so we don't have to spend on two phone calls."

 

 

You can just imagine Martinez and the senior players laughing and high fiveing each other with Kenwright just out of shot wondering what the fuck is funny ??

[kemskem]

I heard that's how the Liberal Democrats got control of Liverpool council because it had moved on to not voting for Red rosettes. Sad bastards.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

This is why you don't get many Evertonians liking UB40. Although they love a whine.

[FanchesterCity]

I thought it was because they are a 1 in 10 of football fans supporting them in Merseyside ;-)

[liverpoolsno9]

long story but my brother got into football very late, part of the sky generation. He started following Everton when he was 25, he's now 48. he will NEVER drink Carlsberg. A few years back he wouldnt have Walkers Crisp in the house because of the 'Cheese & Owen' promotion thingy they had at the time. He had a 40th Bday party not long after Istanbul & i wore a Liverpool polo shirt with 'Istanbul 5 times' on the chest & his Mrs wouldnt let me in to it! He came down to mine to fix my PC last week in my absence & my son made him a cuppa in my LFC mug & he refused to drink from it, even though he does it to me with his EFC mug, i just drink it as if to prove a point. Fuckin horrible bitter bastards. Most of the old Blues are ok, its the new generation that are cunts.

[Tony Moanero]

Speaking of 'old' football fans, a Red (early 60's) , who I know, hates Manchester United but wants Everton to do well. The 80's is his favourite football era, as both teams were successful.

[FanchesterCity]

Never understood that stuff... but I've seen City and United fans doing it too. Classic lines are:

 

1) "I've never set foot in the swamp"

2) "I couldn't live next door to a red"

3) "I disown my kid if he supported that lot" etc

 

I thought these fans were supposed to enjoy following a football team. It's not a bloody sectarian regime, or religious cult.

 

It's sad too that when you have something like Hillsborough, people manage to see beyond the rivalry. So why not manage it while people are actually still alive to enjoy it with?

 

Nothing wrong with taking the piss at a club's fortunes etc, that's what the rivalry is about - but not drinking from mug? not wearing a colour? - insanity.

 

And are they REALLY saying they'd rather not go into their rivals ground than actually support their team? Think about that - they'd actually decline to support the team in the stadium than go inside it? hmmm ... strange kind of fan to me.

I wouldn't drink out of an everton cup though to be fair 

[milky]

Reminds me a bit of United fans giving it large and being obnoxious wankers about their success.

 

'Oh we had to suffer it from you lot for years, so we're gonna rub it in now. You lot can just suffer it.'

 

And what did you think the Liverpool fans who were gloating years ago were like?

 

'Cunts, absolute cunts.'

 

So by definition, you are.......
