While you are messing in the archives Dave PLEASE dig out the Roy Hodgson megathread. There‘s enough entertainment in there to keep us going till next season. I remember a dope from Dublin who must have been woy‘s bastard son the way he defended him to the end. It was comedy gold.

Spot on about united crowd‘s boring chanting Dave. It goes back a long time; those as old as me will remember a united game at Anfield in the early 70s they were dreadful, Busby‘s side had broken up and been replaced by shit; we won 1 or 2 nil. However for 90 minutes their deluded fans chanted „Champions of Europe“ non stop, either Feyenord or Ajax were Champions at the time.

Thanks for the responses gents; it seems to have been a liverpool myth. There was a strong RC prod divide in the city before and immediately after the second war. Given that I think it’s natural that people identified the two clubs with thir religions. There was a guy on Radio 4 notlong ago who recalled his time as a pupil at SFX in the 1950s who told how the priests in school told them to be good Catholics, vote Labour and support Everton. While never as bitter as in Glasgow there are enough stories to suggest there must have been some religious undercurrent in the early years of the 20th century.

When I was a boy I lived in the south end and Everton fans were rare; they came from the north end and through the tunnel, I had one mate who was a blue; the rest were red; even though we were in the second division then. I was told it was a religious thing; Everton was the Catholic club presumably because there were more Catholics in walton, scotland Road and Bootle. Are there other old timers on here who were told this by their parents? When l moved to north wales in the late 70s; the deeside strip was full of Evertonians; the first Shankly 81 graffiti I ever saw was in Flint. flint, shotton and Connahs Quay were all predominantly blue or ManU. The school I taught in had few Liverpool supporting kids; Michael Owen, Ian Rush, Gary speed and Radcliffe were all blues when they played schoolboy football.

Tyler just came in his pants

Bob Paisley was pure genius, the greatest manager we ever had and one of the greatest ever. Only Herbert Chapman comes close. Ferguson isn’t in the same class as a manager or as a man.

Hate Chelsea but it’s hard not to feelnsorry for them tonight. Possibly the most biased refereeing performance I have ever seen. Nothing will be said or done about Taylor, but we should protest if he is ever picked to ref us against the scum.

Slab headed twat shouln’t be on the pitch

According to the Guardian the deal is worth 7M a year, no wonder Everton are binning it. Most championship clubs are getting more than that. Shows how much of a world famous club the BS is.

When is a winter break not a winter break.....when the fuckwit dinosaurs at the FA say its awinter break

Reid and the binman, the rest combined aren‘t worth a toss, Reid the only blue to speak objectively about Hyssel, Southall a genuine good egg, like humpty dumpty. Special pjace in hell for Cahill and his ilk.

Atkinson again.......shouldn‘t be allowed near our games corrupt cunt

Slobbergob on twitter was saying how lucky Liverpool were. Of course having a deflected shot come back off the bar onto one’s head is pure skill not lucky in any way, is it Harry you soft cunt?Delusional cheating twat.

Evra fluent in Spanish my arse, you‘ve forgotten what was said at the time, his understanding of Spanish is the same as Boris Johnsons understanding of the word truth.

He is becoming nothing more than another media whore l
