  1. I think the issue is that unless Momentum and those types split and create their own party, there is no vehicle to rally behind for a left wing socialist cause. The whole thing just depresses me to be honest for a couple of reasons 1. Doesn't matter what happens the government is getting elected again 2. Jeremy Corbyn and his politics (for whatever reason) was rejected and to bang that particular drum again will not advance matters 3. The last Labour leader to be elected was Tony Blair so what does that tell you about this country? I believe Starmer is playing the right cards, doing the right thing. I say this slightly through gritted teeth because I want him to be more aggressive, but if he does that, see point number one.
  2. John Arne Riise's own goal v Chelsea. I was right behind it in the Kop. Without doubt the worst piece of footballing I have ever had the horror to see all because he wouldn't use his right foot, the absolute weapon.
  3. I'm ignorant to the challenges that Women's football is facing to be honest. I can only speak about my approach to it and also understanding the expectation that people have. I only consume the 1st team, and maybe a little bit of the youth side of football. I don't watch anyone other than Liverpool unless there is a big game, and I have never really sat down to watch the women's game. Mainly because I care for it very little, in the same way I care for Cricket very little. I am not trying to be-little it, but the women's game really isn't on my radar and I don't think it will ever be. What is important however as a women's side is that we are well represented, well run and competitive, the challenge you've got is that the fact the side was relegated means very little to me. I'm just not bothered though even if the above is or isn't the case. I can't replicate he intensity I have for the 1st team for the women's side. There has been some success with a women's football club down south which isn't affiliated with the mens side, and is competing at the highest level in women's football. That is not to say there shouldn't be mainstream support from the mens Football League, but I do wonder if to build the affinity for the women's game, actually trying to establish that out of existing mens sides is probably not the way to do it. I don't quite know where I am going with this but in short 1. I don't watch women's football 2. I didn't really care that they got relegated 3. I think if we have a women's football side it should be well run, supported and competitive, but if it isn't and the men's side is successful then its a non issue for me 4. Perhaps the City of Liverpool should establish a Womens Football Side with investments from Liverpool and Everton and grow the game that way - if indeed the ultimate ambition is to have women's football in the spotlight
  4. The Club have earned enough kudos to trust them with the approach. On Thiago, I think this will get sorted after the CL
  5. The thirst has been quenched, the dream has been fulfilled. A generation of Liverpool fans (myself included) either not of age, or not even alive when Liverpool last won the league. Every year it has been the same, with a few false dawns in the interim. I feel incredibly look to have witnessed the club win absolutely everything in the 30 years, and now to have witnessed us win the one that kept us awake at night, and caused the biggest of heartaches in 13/14 it's a very fulfilling feeling. I don't think we will ever be able to replicate that intensity unless of course (God forbid) we go even 10 years without a league or CL win, but its done its completed. So what happens next? How do you feel? Where will be in 12 months time, and here is another one - What do we look like in 30 years? I have to admit my first point was to say, let go again, lets win it next year hopefully with some normality in society. I hope the players can hold onto that hunger for that reason.
  6. I work for a telecoms provider and we used their kit in some of our services 1. It performed better than Cisco and was easier to configure 2. It was much much much more cost effective than buying Cisco 2. There was no obvious signs of anything that could be deemed as malicious I think it's a proxy war for control over mission critical infrastructure between Chinese equipment and American. Might be being slightly ignorant but at worst what they probably (and I have no evidence to back this up) have in their is no more or no less than what Google or Apple are capturing in their devices.
  7. No shuffle no party, delay the trophy lift until adequate shuffling can be performed
  8. Does anyone have links to the Sky Sports footage of when we won it (that programme that they aired straight after)
  9. We live in a society where judgement is instant, severe with very little understanding for nuance
  10. Fail to see how the break up of the UK is in anyway beneficial to Scotland in the long term. You can’t argue for staying in the EU whilst arguing to leave the UK. If your argument is that Scotland will rejoin the EU I also fail to see how that works as well. The politics of division will make our enemies stronger and Nationalism is just stupid anyway.
  11. Never been a beer/lager drinker myself, sorry Owen Jones I am a betrayer to my class
  12. He just stopped saving things, and if I recall correctly didn't save a penalty again after the 2007 CL Semi Final. His problem also was that he was behind one of the greatest goalkeepers of the generation in Iker Casillas so was never really able to rise to the level that Allison has done whilst at Liverpool. Although he was clearly well thought of. On his day he was absolutely brilliant, more error prone than Allison, and unfortunately whether it was himself or the impact of circumstances around him, he just became a little bit shit. Also I am now viewing Reina in the context of the greatest goalkeeper I've ever seen and in my opinion unquestionable the best goal keeper in Europe in AB. Still love him though, wish he got an ovation this week.
  13. Some really important goals, contributions and performances in so few appearances. I think he could be just as, if not more influential than TAA if things go right for him. A new scouse heartbeat to the team
  14. The Havant and Waterlooville squad for 20 minutes back in 07/08
  15. When City go 1-0 up that’s when they get you, I know it sounds stupid but they only have one way of winning and it’s basically blowing the opposition away. We can do that, but we can come from behind and grind out results. I’m not saying City don’t do that but basically fuck them. We’re champions. I’d rather be champions then putting in all our effort into “making a point”. dust yourselves over reds
  16. Never before (probably only Stevie in 13/14) have I ever wanted a player to win something as much as I have him with the CL and PL. He's just a wonderful human being, great player, and I love him. Captain Eternal
  17. Very difficult to judge between Salah and Mane - They're both beautiful and I love them both
  18. The approach will be dictated by the proposed start date of the new season which I don’t think has been set. I think the key thing here is to bring Williams, Elliott, Jones and Co on individually. Let them be part of a 1st 11 setup.
  19. Knife crime in Liverpool is an absolute curse - The last thing we need to do is defund the police.
  20. When he came in I asked myself, if not him then who would be able to deliver 19? I also felt at some point it would be an absolute travesty if he didn’t go on to win the league with us I feel like he’s this generations Shankly. He’s so aligned with the club, fans and city to a level that even exceeds that of Houllier and Benitez who at the height of their popularity where considered immortal. The day he leaves will he possibly the hardest day I will have as a Liverpool Fan, which is mad to say when it could be 5 or more years from now. He has the chance to become the greatest manager of the greatest club, it’s in his grasp. He will have his own story, but it could the best of them all. Shanks included
  21. Biscan the Jack (12 Years Old) - and Teddy the Shih-Tzu (7 Months Old)
  22. Congratulations to all of us reds, from far and wide, to those with us and not with us. Up the Reds
  23. Would be very very surprised if Koulibaly happens
  24. I think he'll be great personally.
