No, I don't think anyones suggesting we should actually 'support' in the true sense of the word, just a desire p'raps, on the day for LFC's advantage.
If a favourable result from the red scum over the blue scum would mean us pipping that shower of sh1testers to a C.L spot, wouldn't that actually be beneficial to everyone that supports the club, as well as the club itself?

I think we need to be realistic here. If we want to be proud of having won the top flight more than any other club then it is up to us to win the thing instead of United rather than hoping other clubs keep them off the top. If we aren't winning how can we claim to be the best?

We should be concentrating on where we are, working towards that day when we can win the EPL and raise the bar once more. I believe United will eclipse our 18 titles before we win another, possibly even this season. So it's time to stop thinking about our history and start writing our history again.

Right now the best thing for this club is for us to finish 4th this season. To do that, 2 of Spurs, Chelsea, and Man City must drop a lot of points while we win pretty much every remaining game. Chelsea must play Man U twice, and while the best result for us as LFC supporters is that both those games are drawn, those 2 points for Chelsea might be enough to see us get stuck in 5th. As far as I am concerned I want United and Arsenal to win every remaining game against these 3 clubs, but contrive to lose their games to us. Only then can we have a shot at fourth in a manner that places our fate in our own hands.

As many points taken away from these 3 clubs and gained by teams we are not in competition with this season (Arsenal, scum, Everton etc) is good for LFC's immediate goal of CL qualification. And even if United *do* take all those points, Arsenal must match them in order to show they have a right to win the title anyway.

If United manage to win no 19 anyway who can say that won't be good for LFC in the long term? It will give us something to prove once more, get our heads out of the ground and make a serious effort at winning the title once more, rather than expecting to win because we're "the best" while somehow being unable to accept we haven't been the best for 2 decades. If you look our performances since Dalglish left, I don't think there is a single trophy we have won more than the scum have, so how can we claim to be more successful than them when our "success" came mainly between 1957 and 1990, a period before the players in our Academy were born?
