yes i do, I think a person who actualy attends games will always have a stronger argument if you like than somebody who does'nt, bit like someone who actualy does the job having a better understanding of how a job works than someone who reads about it or watches it being done on the telly if you like
What a load of bollx. You're watching the game just as much as anyone - that gives you no greater opportunity to gain tactical insight than someone who has slow-motion replays at his beck and call. You also have a fixed viewpoint, most likely along the length of the pitch - being 100 yards from the action at the far goal doesn't afford you much of a view of the finer points of the action. You're basing your opinion on the fact that because you pay the gate you're a "different level" of supporter, some kind of "elite" because you go to the ground. How difficult it must be for you to accept that all supporters are the same. Listen thats not a problem, I dont think all supporters are the same, there are different levels of support for a start, all about opinions, you wont change mine and I wont change yours simple as.

Actually Ford, that's a resonable thing to say, and it's good that you can agree to disagree. There's no point going on about it if we all have differing opinions.

That's fair enough - there are supporters who do not watch every game, or buy every piece of merchandise and so on. But I disagree that a 'lesser' supporter cannot have greater insight into the game or the way this club plays it.

All about opinions like I said, there will always been divisions between supporters who support the same too, it's a fact of life wether people agree with it or not, where a person lives or comes from does play a part when judgements are made as well, people like to protect there own identities and this wont be going away in life, an average person from Liverpool will always like to think he is better or superior than say a person from Manchester and vice versa.

, an average person from Liverpool will always like to think he is better or superior than say a person from Manchester and vice versa. so what you are saying is our average liverpudlain ids some sort of supremicist based on where people come from. sounds like youve just called mot people from liverpool bigots.

What I am saying is people from Liverpool are very proud and protective of where they come from, they are quite tribal in fact when it comes to defending themselves from the outside or rest of the country, no place like it in fact.

That’s true they are very tribal. Very tribal.
And despite the reputation of Liverpool friendliness they can be hostile to non Liverpudlians. I know because I get it firsthand not major stuff but am called a wool quite regularly. A wool is a slightly derogatory term for a fellow north west person not from Liverpool. It means Woolyback and comes from the Dockers who came from outside Liverpool a century ago and took the locals jobs. They have never forgiven them.
