We would have had more but for some unfortunate incident in europe that put English clubs out for some time....
Of course if it wasnt for Sir Matt Busby, you wouldnt be in europe to start with

So you really dont know your EUROPEAN football history at all then?
You wouldnt even be in europe if it were not for Manchester United, go do some homework, Liverpool are forgotten now, until you get a decent manager and are able to build up, you wont do well at anything (except bribe Rhyl into giving their champions league place to you )

Errrm we are 300 million in debt but are worth 1.3 billion.... and a team of over 30's? thats liverpool as have you seen the average age of our team? (23).
As for NPS, its not the same as a new age, it does not do the same job (nor is it the same part), in a new age (especially with avcs) it take the load off the engine whilst changing gears, it does not do that in a classic, it just reports when you place the car into neutral, hence you are slightly confused (and the reason you see alot more issues with new age cars than you do with classics).

FACT!

Ku Klux Kenny isn't a good manager, he ruined Newcastle's team, and he's doing the same at Liverpool. £35 million for Carroll, cheers KKKenny, first decent thing you've done for Newcastle.

Commiserations to Manure, I would have preferred they won the title, than Citeh buying it.

Maybe after winning so many titles in the last twenty five years I've become a bit blasé about it, it didnt hurt as I had resigned myself to losing it after the Everton Draw, but for the neutrals and the dippers it must have been heaven. Great to see so many ABU's out and about.

But the same old arguments come out, it's like the history channel in here with all the scousers pontificating about their 5 European cups, I mean how many of the posters in here are actually old enough to remember them winning a European cup other than the one AC Milan donated in Istanbul, certainly not many of you can remember winning the league it was so fooking long ago and the liklehood is it will be your grand children who wil see the next championship come to anfield, unless you drop down the leagues if Kenneth is allowed to spunk another £100m, something tells me he wont be.

It's nice to see you still getting a semi on over the League Cup FM you will have to milk that for years because there will be nothing else to cheer about other than United losing the odd league match, I also recall you advocating you'd rather see United win it over City earlier on in the season.

So all in all, with multiple injuries a load of young players and apparently being in transition, we still end up with 89 points, it isnt all that bad but on the other hand my beloved LFC can only manage 8th place, level with Fulham and a mere 37 points off the top with the bookies quoting 50/1 for LFC to win the title next year, never in a million years whereas United wil be giving their fans value for money, again


You're right about that kit, minging, although your new kit has not gone unoticed and has also caused a bit of a stir, p.s. who the **** are Warrior ? the american Le Coq Sportif by any chance ???

It was day like yesterday when one thinks back fondly of the 2008-2009 season.

And then we read today that the Legend Gary Nev has been appointed to the England coaching staff, antagonising scousers everywhere since 1992

You know the only response to that from the ABU's will be along the lines of 'bitter' or 'sour grapes'... It's as if they haven't got any other retort.. oh wait

Not posted on here since before we won the FA Cup. Just thought I'd remind you I'm a City fan from Manchester! Loved the last game against QPR had every emotion I was there! & the parade.

One thing to say

Have you erased the game at the swamp from you memories already?
