I am asking what is the reason they started supporting the Club in the first place if its not from where there from and if its not the fame or glory of the Club in the first place, simple question, you just dont stick a pin in a list of teams and pick one now do you and decide I think i will start supporting that.


i'm loving the fact that practically everyone is ignoring you. laugh

That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

Mata was a realistic link and had Kenny or Comoli gone for him - instead of putting all their efforts into signing Henderson and Downing - I think they might have had a decent chance

He's exactly whay we needed and still do - a pacey winger with bags of skill and a good eye for goal - and inlike poremodanas like Tevez his move to england didn't seem to be all about money - but furthering his career

I'm not saying we would have gone him - weithout CL it would have been tricky, but I always saw this as a genuine, if unlikely, link - much like these very worrying Tevez stories

I'm a tad confused - you're saying you think the link with Mata was genuine, but Kenny and Comolli didn't go for him? Who goes for him to make the 'link' genuine??

Every transfer window, football clubs are interested in loads of players they never end up 'going for'

It's most likely that LFC representatives made contact with Mata's but just bewcause a club doesn't specifically go for a player it doesn't the link bogus

Hopefully that's as far as our interest in Tevez goes - but is still baggars belief that there's people at our club who would wamt him - given his immense baggage

The way I see it, you disagree with ideas, not people. Even if I have disagreed with you before I don't want you to think that I had some vedetta against you or something. Even when I have disagreed with you, you usually make fairly intelligent comments.

I started supporting this team not because of trophies, history, or where I was from. I started supporting it because of the Liverpool way. Liverpool has always carried on and off the pitch itself with a dignity and grace that other clubs simply don't have. The first example of this I saw was when I was 13, watching the miracle that happened at Istanbul in 2005. It wasn't the trophy that the club won that impressed me. It was the attitude. This was a team that would not quit, even when things were at their worst, even when they were finishing the season 5th, even when they were down 3-0 at halftime. I found out later that this was an attitude, a philosophy, a way of life that had been a the heart of the club since men like Bill Shankly laid the foundations of its history, and players like Gerrard and Carra embody that attitude, that dignity that we call the Liverpool way.

Where I live, there is no local club to support, but even if there was, no other club can embody that spirit like this club does. I can love no other club. The reason that all the defeatist, muck-raking negative posts get under my skin is because I feel it's pissing on the spirit of the club, the spirit that I fell in love with, the spirit of a club that would strive for everything even when things were bleak. So I don't care if you're local, I don't care if you attend every match and you've bought every jersey the clubs ever made. That spirit is something you can't buy.

Great post Redordead, well said!


Life is beautiful when you find Love
when you find the place your meant to be
when you find the one to give your heart to
as for me
this is you
this is Love
