KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum too many negative nancys

There is such a thing as blind faith. Its human nature and football fans the world over have it. However if you have sat at Anfield as I have for the past 20 years your blind faith errodes my friend I can assure you of that. I will be there today in the drizzle watching with a critical eye on that Andy Carroll. There will be a fair but stern look on my face.

Correct Stanley, when you go to the match we all look at the game with diffrent ways, young kids will see nothing wrong and think everything is fine and rosy in the Liverpool garden yet when you get older you look at the game more closely and use a more critical eye. You are similar to me as in you watched us when we were a big and successful Club so we can compare with todays team how near or far we are from returning those days,most on here cant do that because alot are under 30 years of age. I still dont know how fans on here can say they expect to see Liverpool up there for the League or winning it when they have never experienced it before in there lives, we can because we have seen it, thats why there expectation levels are highly questionable and why I dont know where this blind faith in Dalglish comes from. " With age comes wisdom " is a famous saying which springs to mind and a few on here would do well to remember that before they have a go at people more critical towards the Club than some.

correct and I can tell you its has drummed a lot of my enthusiasm out of my match going time the last 10 years has changed my total out look on the game and LFC , 10 years ago it and everything about LFC could do nothing wrong , but a string of over paid crap players over paid self righteous managers and decisions by the board Athens 2007 being the tipping point has take a lot out of me and I am not not the only one , it ok today in where ever place you are with your shirt on watching the game hoping Liverpool win great nothing wrong with that , but when its been your life for near on 40 years as I get the bus to anfield today i can honestly say the enthusiasm is nothing like 7 or 8 or 10 years ago and yes I still love the club but it isn't the same and that thing about LFC will never return sadly going the match these days is not about the game no more like it was its a social thing have a pint talk to mates win lose or draw it makes no difference , this is just my own feelings of being a liverpool and football supporter in the year 2011 totally my own feelings and thought .

Personally I wouldn't call that blind faith, but just faith that has been let down. Sorry if I'm nit picking. I have faith that we can get a top 4 spot, but not win, and not for a while at that. I just don't agree with the term blind faith, people being unrealistic maybe, or silly, but not blind.

Although everybody has the right to share their own opinions, some of the negative comments make us liverpool fans look like we have no faith in our team. What interests me the most is most of these "negative nancy's" are hypocrites and glory hunters, they love the team when we are winning and not so much when we are not.

I agree. It annoys me so much. It's one extreme to another. I understand supporters that vent their frustrations logically, but not these supporters that change their mind from one week to the next.

Well Jimmy doesnt change his mind he is consistent that Dalglish is not up to the job. I personally think that is too premature and have told him so. However I attended every game home and away back in 1991 (just home now) and I can understand fully why he thinks that way. When Dalglish left us in 1991 the club was a mess and that was the atart of the decline to where we are today. I will argue that point with anyone. THe Daglish of 2011 we wait and see as far as I am concerned.

Fair play. Kenny is a good man, but time will tell. I don't think it's wise for anyone to get on the man's back yet. Especially after only 5 games in the league. He's won 4, lost 2 and drawn 1, that's a good start.

Agreed everyone deserves a "fair crack of the whip" and that includes Daglish.

Some of you people actually make me sick. Pathetic human beings with sh*t for brains, tbh. Seriously - COP THE F*CK ON.

A thread about kicking negativity to touch, turns into the exact same BORING BORING conversation from the same predictable users crying about how sh*t life is.

If football depresses you this much then f*ck off! Seriously like, just stop supporting (I use that term loosely) the team. All you're doing is coming on here and trying to bring others down with you to your depressed level.

The most over-used phrase on here is 'blind-faith/blind-faithers'. Laughably pathetic. Someone mentioned about the 2 extremes - well I for one sit on neither of these 2 extremes - I side with common sense, yet if me or anyone else says something remotely sensible or dare I say 'optimistic', then we're accused of having 'blind faith'. You people are actually a blight on life. Go find some happiness or fulfillment in another area of life, and do the rest of us a favour.
