I was reading this article today Liverpool should be title favourites, no matter what Sir Alex Ferguson says - Telegraph Blogs where kelly lays into bacon face over his dismissal of our chances. Im surprised to read the comment that for the last 20 seasons, our fans have been saying 'this is our season' to win the title.
Have we?
OK, all clubs have their nutters who think they win the title but these are such a minority, they can safely be ignored as not representing the main concensus of opinion.
And yet, time after time on teletext, talkshyte, 606, you're on slysports etc, fans of other clubs particularly arse, the chavs and filth, claim Liverpool fans have been saying this every season for the last 15 years or more.
Now I dont recollect us saying this. Yes, we hope we can put a challenge in every season but, with the exception of last season and perhaps 96, I never got the feeling the mode was one of confidence.
Will this season be 'our' year? I dont know but I do think we have as good a chance as the chavs (new manager to England, big ask to win the title especially since he's only won 1 or 2 serie A titles) or filth who have lost a prolific goalscorer at the very least.
