im just going to advise on this lads. well we know that where we all live blah blah blah and its worth generally leads to threads getting shut down, people getting suspended etc, so im just saying it now. im not going to make the call, its up to Dunk, ive referred the matter on based on his directive.
just make a decision as to whether or not the direction of this debate is relevant enough to continue.
cheers. flames i cant comment on where this lad lives or works because i dont know where he lives so i wouldnt comment on it , now unless he has the ear of joe anderson (mayor of liverpool) or lives in the area and sees what is going on then he shouldnt comment , he can comment as much as he likes about liverpool f.c. and issues surrounding the club good ,bad or indifferent but not about the city and its good point and bad points .

He's suggesting what every depressed area needs and where they get the funding from. Think of it as a hypothetical area which is basically how he's approaching it. He hasn't mentioned specifics like build a community project in the anfield area etc etc. you're taking him up the wrong way

i work in the anfield area every day i was born less than 2 miles away from the ground so i know what is going on my friend . You say the area needs more housing, jobs and services. I don't doubt you. However, where do you suppose the extra money for housing and services plus new jobs to come from? Why do you come across sounding like LFC and the non-local fans are to blame? have never said non local fans arew to blame never , dont know were you got that from , my point was about the woman and other locals who feel they have been treated poorly by the club , now what ever happens liverpool are a global club and do and will attract fans from everywhere and the club and the city do welcome them all without a doubt , but the issues of the anfield area are long and very complex .

i have never said non locals are to blame for anything regareding LFC never and i dont believe they are , but this issue this woman has got has happened before and it does seem to be reds who have been long time match going reds , only because i have had personal experience of similar happening a few years ago , and only because knowing phil thompson who was assistant manager at trhe time and club legend it got sorted , now LFC would suffer big time now if the non local fans didnt come they are part of the club , but so are the local and this story is just typical of the club not caring .

Faz, again I have no sympathy for the woman. There are lots of fans who don't have much money and are struggling to pay for food and housing never mind their season ticket, and others who are slightly better off having to make a tough choice and maybe not even see their club any more because it's too pricey. These people I'm sympathetic to.
Then on the other hand we have a woman who has no problem paying for it, but just complains about the bleedin seat she gets. you have a point raf but if it was you , you wouldnt like it and that is the point about doing the right thing .

We started off discussing the situation for this particular lady, how exactly she has been treated badly along with other local fans. I also asked for more examples, if there's any, where local fans are mistreated.

One last question faz. Had the woman not beeen form anywhere near Liverpool, and had been attending regularly, would this thread still be here? Would you have made a thread about fans being treated badly, or is it just because it's a local? yes of course and as i said non local are just as much part of the club today as anytime, i have had my seat next to two great people for years from chorley just the same as me , it make no difference just think the club have done it wrong .

look people before people get me wrong i am NOT blaming non locals , i have never blamed non locals for things the club do or dont do good or bad , just i feel sympathy for this woman and her issue because of a similar that happened to me and my tickets a few years back ok not 100 years of going the match but at least 50 years of season tickets in the family .

So why put the word "local" in the thread title? Why has local become the main topic of this thread? It should be an irrelevance where she's from. It's dangerous ground to be separating local from non-local fans, and I think the forums would be a lot better off if you didn't put it again, especially when as you say it makes no difference. ok apologies for that .
