  1. Mate they're a fucking disgrace. The same shite every window. I've never felt so deflated supporting us after we won the CL and League. It will prove to be a flash in the pan as the twats running the club wasted our best manager we have had in decades. I've had enough of them and the super league was the last straw and proved they are nothing more than money grabbing lying twats just like the previous cunts who owned us. Yes they might not be as bad as cancer and aids but they are full of as much shit but with better PR. I look forward to seeing them roll out space Jam nonce with his LFC jacket.

  2. I can imagine driving an open-topped Lamborghini down Route 66 while Katy Perry licks my balls as her generous bosoms slip out of an ill-fitting dress. I can imagine a series of Michelin standard chefs bringing me course after course of marvellous dishes as I feast like a king watching the sun go down over Santorini. I can imagine sashaying through my 17 bedroom mansion in silk pyjamas while ornamental lions spit fire at my every step. However I cannot imagine the tight-fisted bastards who own this football club putting their hands in their pockets and shelling out for a world-class forward on transfer deadline day.

  4. The Philips contract is only problematic because they announced it today. Can't understand for the life of my why they would do that and why they would subject him to the unwarranted abuse that's probably coming his way. Why not announce it tomorrow, or next week, rather than incur the ire of the fans by simply rubbing it in their faces that we didn't sign anyone? On the face of it, it seems we've given him a just reward for his performances last season when he would have been on absolutely fuck all. Performances that we owe our participation in the European Cup to, in part. It's also problematic if you believed that selling him for £10m or whatever would have opened the door to an exciting new signing in this window. It clearly wouldn't. It just would've paid for a 6 months of wages for one of the contracts we've just extended. So basically, get the fuck over it.

  5. Lucky we finished in the top 4 last season, as all the super smart in the know journo’s said not getting champions league football would really affect our summer transfer targets.

  6. Tell you what, it's a good job we waited until the end of the transfer window before we judged the owners on their willingness to invest in the club. The fucking idiots who said early on in the window that Konate will be the only incoming and there will be loads of sales to offset that transfer fee must be feeling like right stupid cunts now. Despite finishing 3rd last season and having the CL pot incoming.

  7. You are aware you have history for telling everyone how you’re a top red, all the games home and away you’ve been to, listed the European aways and finals and then told the forum the vast majority of posters on here don’t know as much as you about the game?

  11. Maybe you could try to not belittle others opinions or level of support. You’ve listed your credentials as a top red on more than one occasion and not just in response to Stroganoff. You could start by not trying to police transfer threads.

  14. Told this story on here before but it still amuses/horrifies me so I’ll tell it again. We went on a caravan holiday in Towyn years ago and on the day we got there we went to the Asda in Rhyl for some shopping. There was a couple in front of us with two small kids at the checkout. When all their shopping had been scanned (including numerous crates of ale) the girl on the till told them that the money they’d handed over wasn’t enough. They didn’t have any more, so instead of returning just one crate of cider or something they instantly snatched the magazines out of their kids hands and handed them straight back. Sly bastards. I couldn’t believe it.

  16. The way Anthony Taylor handled Chelsea's time-wasting really boiled my piss.I saw Mendy had been yellow-carded because I was right in line with the scoreboard when it was flashed up, which was also how I was told Reece James had been sent off. God forbid that you might find out because it was clearly visible on the field of play thanks to a ref who was in control of matters. Anyway, within five minutes of the start of the second half I knew that there was zero chance that Mendy would get a second yellow for time-wasting, and you can be sure Mendy knew it too. He'd wait ages to pick up the ball, occasionally stopping to take a swig from his water bottle, then trot across to the other side of the six-yard box from where the ball went dead, then take an age to tee up the ball. Only now would the ref signal for him to get on with it, which meant Mendy had license for all the nonsense that had taken place up to then, and he exploited that license to the full. At one point Taylor waved his watch in Mendy's direction to say that he'd be adding all this on, yet given there were four second-half substitutions which are worth 30 seconds each, he added on one minute for everything else! You have to marvel at how someone so impervious to the bleeding obvious can succeed so spectacularly in his chosen field. The fact that it is so prevalent among referees makes me think it is a feature, not a bug. With all that out of the way, I'd reiterate my post-match comments that I had an absolute whale of a time at the ground on Saturday. When I rocked up to Anfield for the first time way back in November 1996 to see Liverpool play Wimbledon, it was seven seasons removed from the last time Liverpool had won the title. The previous occasion Liverpool had gone seven years without winning the title, they won it (1973). You could sense that the drought was beginning to wear on people, and when the Reds played out an insipid 1-1 draw having taken the lead after only 35 seconds, boos erupted around the ground which I believe was the first time that had happened under Roy Evans. Ever since then, the gnawing sense of frustration at that gap became ever more present, no matter how well they might play on any given day. Well, I think it was gone in general around the ground on Saturday, and it was definitely gone in my mind. It's been two years since Liverpool won the title, and there was a swagger around that overwhelmed the mind-numbing chants of their support. To sing "Fuck off Chelsea FC, you've got no history, SIX European Cups and NINETEEN Leagues, that's what we call history"...this is the way football is meant to be. You go to a game and you enjoy it alongside the spectacle. If you win, great. If you don't, you still had the game and the spectacle. It also helps that getting a ticket wasn't a chore thanks to my wife's season ticket. Having for many years felt match-day going was an experience fraught with that x-decades-since-the-last-title frustration, I now can't wait to get back.

  17. We needed an exciting, attacking, fancy-dan, jimmy-big-bollocks who would have provided an enormous amount of excitement and momentum and a shed load of goals and chances. We deserve it for not being able to properly celebrate our incredible title win and also, as I am tired of saying the motherfucking stock market has been on fire for the past 18 months and if you seriously believe that old John H Henry and his gang haven't made yet another fortune during this black swan event then you are sorely and surely mistaken. Any business needs ongoing investment. Merely paying your existing staff and keeping things ticking over is not enough. You constantly need fresh ideas and fresh talent coming through and this is exacerbated in the sports industry, due to its incredibly competitive nature and heavy investment from rival teams. Some of your incoming personnel you will garner from internal recruitment and some will be sourced from outside - TAA and VVD is an example of this. There is no debate, our owners are fucking around and not putting in what they should. Personally I think Klopp could and should apply more pressure to them in this area because he is most certainly allowed to ask for a new significant signing, when a world class midfielder like Gini leaves due to contract negotiations breakdown. That's FSG fucking up and leaves Klopp with less resources. Feel free to disagree FSG lovers. I can't personally see how you are happy about this transfer window. edit: Or the last one, or the one before that.

  18. The thing that pisses me off the most is that we were 7th or 8th and miles away from the top 4 or competing when Klopp arrived. We fought so hard to get back in the CL and then got to the final. We then win it the year after and the league. Having been miles behind and then leapfrogging all our rivals, becoming tge most attractive prospect in world football the owners just seem content to sit back and be content to slide back to where we were when we qualified for the first time. Fucking infuriating.

  23. Let’s face it FSG are just happy to have their very own Arsene Wenger in charge, a man who can get them champions league footy every year with very little outlay and if a shiny cup pops up along the way then all well and good. We could and should be dominating the league and Europe with this guy in charge but with these cunts pulling the strings I’m afraid we’ll look back when Jurgen has moved on and think “if only”

  28. I'm glad that Dave mentioned the Main Stand side linesman as he was doing my head in as well. Couldn't spot the blatant foul on Trent in the second half from a few yards but could see a slight deflection on the opposite side of the pitch from 30 yards or so away. You could see why the Chelsea players carried on the way they did and it had the desired effect. The three minutes injury time (not that we would have scored even if he had added on thirty three) summed it up. They spent so long time wasting in the second half yet none of it was added on.

  29. Agree that it's hard to know what to make of this result and performance. It did feel like we should have caused 10 men a lot more trouble than we did, but as you say there's no better team than Chelsea in this situation. It's not even just a current thing under Tuchel. They seem to have had managers and players who have thrived in such situations for years. I remember them being down to 10 men protecting a 1 goal lead for the whole of the second half against Barcelona's vintage team and Barcelona just looking completely bereft of any ideas of how to break them down and just having cross after cross easily cut out. It will be a lot more concerning if that failure to break teams down, or even looking like doing so, becomes a common problem against lesser teams. I've loved the first few weeks of the season but this was definitely a bit of a downer. Not just our second half performance but Taylor's as well. I'd almost forgotten how infuriating the refs consistently were during our bad run last season. Not always in terms of big decisions (although there were plenty of those as well) but just the accumulation of numerous small decisions going against us that made it impossible to ever build any momentum and eventually just seemed to wear our players down. I'd hoped it would be different this year with fans back in the ground, but that might not be the case on the basis of this game. Those stats on the foul counts are ridiculous. Klopp would no doubt get lambasted by the moronic British sports media if he complained about Taylor's performance in this game, particularly in light of the game's biggest decision going in our favour, but it would be great if he just mentioned those stats in the press conference before the next game we have with Taylor in charge. That sort of bias needs greater scrutiny.

  31. You see the irony for pulling someone up on calling you a ‘top red’ when you’ve posted countless times how you’re a top red? I did have a borrowed ST for a while from a poster on here and Rush is my hero. I’ve met him twice, the first time thanks to posters on here. I’m damn certain I’ve never referenced either in defence of my opinion on anything though. I’ve told you before I don’t hold that against you as we’ve all posted shit on here whilst pissed, but you can’t then try to lord it up and police transfer threads telling people their posts aren’t worthy of the forum or are boring when you’ve done it yourself. You’ve also made countless hugely funny ironic posts about yachts or FSG out following media reports before anyone has even posted about it on here.

  34. This Hendo contract. Was there ever even an impasse? A friendly reporter put out that there was doubt it'd get done. Two weeks after that it's agreed, then they wait two more weeks to announce it's signed. Contract impasse? Sounds like a standard negotiation to me, where one party said 'not good enough' and the other party came back with an agreeable offer. With them announcing it today, it sounds like this was the plan all along to deflect from their lack of incomings, hoping that enough of us are just stupid or easily placated enough to swallow it. It's shit because Hendo deserved the type of fanfare that Robbo and Virg' got when they signed new deals. Instead they've just pissed everyone off and turned a feel good moment into a sour one. Fucking arseholes.

He genuinely looked dead inside. People actually go on holiday there. I’m not sneering at this because it’s all some people can afford, it just depresses me.

  41. Agree. They'll manufacture the situation in any manner they possibly can, aided by friendly PR in the press, to avoid putting their hands in their pockets. I'm not even sure it's conservative anymore, it's just not *wanting* to spend the money. The chance to get to 20 or 21 exists until Klopp leaves. Then it's gone for the next god-knows-how-long.
