KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum LFC not taking care of long time and local reds

Oh, this lady and her family is being driven out?! I sure didn't get that. I thought she was offered 2 seats somewhere else in the stadium. Silly me.

No problem with Stan and Faz's points. The club could possibly have handled this slightly better but it is a tricky one. If we want to compete long term we have to move with the times and unfortunately that will occasionally lead to disagreement.

Quite correct fazakerley but again it's a valid point of view wasted on here as people from outside of the City simply cant understand or know how it feels when your home town Club shIts all over you like whats happend to that poor woman, this woman and her family are what the essence of football is about, it about supporting the Club which represents you and your home, she never picked the club to support like most on here have done, the Club picks you, you are either Liverpool or Everton, if you come from Manchester you are either City or United, thats how it works or should work anyway. Just before anyone starts about an anti OOT rant just remember the whole post is about a Local fan who feels she has been harshly treated, I never started it but I am just having an opinion, which is how a forum works, no insults just an honest assessment of my take on the situation.

you're coddin yourself into being a victim: "the poor people from liverpool, no-one from outside understands".

there's thousands of clubs all around the world in various sports and they are all local to someone, and they all undergo change. get over yourself, you are not unique.

One things for sure its a PR own goal by the club. Right in the echo when many local fans are thinking can I afford £800 again this year. And despite what anyone says at least 50% of the match going fans are from merseyside e.g the echo catchment and the echo sells as far as chester to St Helens.

i agree that it could have been handled better.

I don't get it. Please help me understand what are the real worries of the local supporters.

Are the population diminishing in Liverpool? There are just not enough new borns who lets Liverpool pick them as fans instead of the other way around?

Are there more examples how local supporters are being treated badly?

Eliteist rant with no evidence whatsoever to prove your assumption that only people from Liverpool are in some way mystically chosen by the club.

Nonsense, have you questioned every fan in the Kop to support that theory. Whether you are from Liverpool, Ireland, Scandanavia or Asia we are all drawn to the club in different ways.

Liverpool is a world wide brand whether you like it or not and the sooner you stumble into the 21st century the sooner you will realise that.

You claim to be a season ticket holder yet you relentlessly condemn players, managers, fans and owners of the club. I have never read a positive post from you on this site. All that makes you is a whingeing fan who happens to live in Liverpool. God help the man sat beside you every other Saturday, he deserves a medal and he is wearing the headphones for a reason.

You are not the Special One just the Whingey One

just an example just for the thread , say the club come out with a new policy to get more corporate into the ground they will not sell tickets to thomas cook or sell ticket to supporters clubs in other places outside of the local catchment area and season ticket waiting list is getting scrapped just to get more people into the lounges and more corporate pounds spent, what would be the call then ?

No work, petrol (gas to you) going up, energy costs did I say no work? Season tickets about $1200 plus your FA cup etc add another $1000. Oh and its pretty violent around Anfield area, very depressed part of the world in more ways than one. Apart from that we have no worries at all.
