KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum OUT OF ORDER

attention..dont be daft...its a forum thats all.
if you dont know london is a bit unique in that it has so many football teams within its vacinity,by and large each area has its own suport from that area...not exclusivly but mostly.that is why you will never hear one of those teams in europe say they represent london.arsenal tottenham hate each other as do millwall chelsea west ham and its repeated down the line.probably fulham is the most friendly club around there.liverpool fc do represent liverpool city first and foremost,that is true.

i know from my own experience that if you go anywhere in the world especialy america if you say you are from liverpool usualy the reply will be ahh the beatles and liverpool fc.in that order.
i guarantee you are safer in liverpool than you would be in london or new york or glasgow were you would get a beating in a pub just because you are not from glasgow.that actualy happens there .
it is said liverpool is the CAPITAL OF DUBLIN because it has such strong irish connections.yes alot of scousers see liverpool as a seperate entity from england in some way.foe a few reasons. the irish connection the way governments..usualy tory..have snubbed liverpool..the way scousers have a unique closeness for their city and remember their upbringing and the values instilled in them.wereever you find a scouser in the world you will always hear them promoting the city to others.very rarely if ever they dont.sure like everywhere in the world there are good and bad people.nice places not so nice places.liverpool has far more nice places than not and many more things going for it than most cities in uk.
heres a thing for you..try a few diferent places first such as glasgow newcastle london leeds manchester...then try liverpool last and you will see exactly what im saying is true.

not being daft at all, just saying there can be several clubs in one big city and you just have to live with that. You do have a point tho that Liverpool represents liverpool city because basically it has the same name. Everton are part of merseyside and also represent the city as far as am concerned.

That would explain any hatred or negativity towards the City then!

I have never heard so much rubbish in all my life saying I ridicule the City, have you actualy read my posts where am I ridiculing my City, I have just informed people that it's one of the poorest Cities in Europe, which it has been recently stated in the news with record numbers of unemployment and with generations of families not being able to work. If you think I am having a go at my City you could'nt be further from the truth, I am proud of where I come from. The point I was making was people on here were saying Liverpool is'nt the same City it was 20 or 30 years ago because of the money it brings in and Liverpool 1 e.t.c. well I am telling you all that money gets spent in the City Centre not in the suburbs and you only have to walk around some of those suburbs to see this point. I Hope we do get this new Cruise Liner Terminal but I am not nieve or stupid enough to think it will anyway benefit me or anyone else who lives in a deprived area of the City because Liverpool 1 and all that objective one money did'nt change anything either. I hope this clears all this stupid talk about me having a go at my City up once and for all, am a proud scouser, born in Liverpool, live in Liverpool and support my local Club which is unlike most people on here.

liverpool you dont get beat up nonsense , liverpool is exactly the same as any big port city around the world , marseillies , genoa, glasgow , naples , new york, rotterdam ETC all the same all have similar issues all have similar people its being the port is the difference , yes liverpool city centre is safer than most , but not in the suburbs same issues for people in bootle than there is in greenock in glasgow , liverpool is a great city so are the people but liverpool has got massive problems , no jobs , health issues , housing issues , drugs, poverty , and just because the albert dock or liverpool one is all signing and dancing doesnt stop that ot change that .

I think your wasting your time these people dont understand, they just see the good parts about Liverpool like Liverpool one, Cruise Liner terminals and money the City brings in, they dont see what goes on in the suburbs and the social problems the City has, I am not saying We are the only City to suffer, but recent polls to say Liverpool is one of the most deprived areas in Europe and thats not me saying that, thats a fact. I still cant believe this plank two got it into his head am having a go at my own city, suppose it's what happens when 11 year olds are let into forums, he even was calling for people to get banned if thats not what children do I dont know what is.

I agree Faz, most cities do have their issues, I remember traveling through some parts of New York while I was over there, it was really scary, like I was in a completely different world. Have to say that I've got it pretty good in Auckland, it's a bit of a haven, but I've lived in London, and travelled a lot, and every city has it's issues.

Yes I think every City has it's good and bad and we are no different, With the City and people being so worse off I dont understand why the Club never done anymore to help us locals given the circumstances, but as we all agree it's now a franchise and no longer a football Club so it's supply and demand for those it can get most money off, thats why it's so desperate to increase the corporate side of things at the expense of extra seats.

i was refering to the poster who said i was atention seeking snakeye.the dont be daft commment was for him.yes unfortunatly efc are part of merseysie.was a great shame they didnt end up in kirby.that would of been hilarious.
