The OFFICIAL Liverpool FC thread - Arne to Slot right in?

[Tony Baloney]

Had a ticket for today. Swapped it for wolves to be at a wedding today.

Not amused.

Good wedding?

[seafoid]

All Liverpool have to do is beat Man City home and away.

[Orior]

Is there something up with the Liverpool support this year? Even today I could hear the Bournemouth fans more than the home crowd.

Liverpool are definitely the most intimidating fanbase when they get going but I thought there has been something a bit muted about them this year.

It might be a case of knowing there's a long season ahead again and bigger occasions.

Ultra sections at smaller clubs are the best.

2 nil up after 20mins.

Citeh 2 nil down at home to Palace.

85 points could win the league this year.

How'd the city game end up?

4-2 to City. Did you not watch MOTD? Probably not...

I've watched it twice now. Great viewing.

[Milltown Row2]

Was out, Bat out Hell musical.. a lot more enjoyable than watching City giving teams false hope

They really aren't. Palace aren't too bad and sing about their own club, but I was stood right beside the bournemouth away fans yesterday. 90 seconds in "where's your famous atmosphere" followed by a rotation of "is this a library" "2 nil and you still don't sing (increase as appropriate) " "southerners southerners southerners" "we've got the ball"..... or "we've lost the ball" "who are ya who are ya"
Anfield was decent yesterday, TV cameras always have the mics pointed at the away fans but when you're anywhere else in the ground other than right beside them, you can't hear much. A relentless drone of noise that isn't reactive to the actual game is shite, like teams in the rest of Europe beating drums and waving flags when its just meh.
Away fans at Anfield literally all sing the same shite. Why are they turning up expecting it to be a Barcelona champions league atmosphere when we are 2 up after 5 mins on a Saturday 3pm kickoff.
When the atmosphere is required it is often provided.

Some things need binning off, like making people sit in the Anfield road end when its all got rails now. They didn't make us sit yesterday but three or four games in there last year it was sit down after 5 mins. Standing is essential to atmosphere. Asking for signs at games is also brutal, three or four in and around me yesterday too.

What happened at the game around the 75th min? Seemed to be a lot of jeering coming from the Bournemouth fans. It was during a substitute and everyone was looking to the Bournemouth end

I think someone had a few too many and had his top off gesturing at the away fans. He was led away by a steward.

Some fat lad has his shirt off and was giving them a bit of shit so he got took out. They then sang " we want our fatty back " 

[dec]

Never in doubt

[laoislad]

Never in doubt 

Good enough for Newcastle play acting shite tonight.

[clarshack]

played 2 mins over the 5. should that have been the case?

[From the Bunker]

Oh the difference a few minutes make! 

[laoislad]

played 2 mins over the 5. should that have been the case?

Did you watch the game?
The 5 mins he added should have been about 8 to start with never mind the shite Newcastle were pulling in injury time.
