KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Was the season just gone a success or failure

My head says success

My heart says failure

Unfortunately as an emotional fan my heart invariably rules the day

Stupid question really! It was a massive success, top at Christmas when no one expected us to be anywhere near that. And then the second half of the season after we all thought we would fall away (especially because we didn't strengthen in January ) we won 15 drew 3 and lost 1 the best record of any team in the period.

The damage to our season was done in the first half of the season, if we had not dropped stupid points we would have been able to lose to both city and Chelsea over Christmas and still been top.

I'm trying to convince myself it was a success but i'm not over the failure of coming second yet.

champions league very easily got , 101 goals , massive improvement and a genuine title challenge , for me a massive success .

Logically a success as you have pointed out accurately

So why does it feel a failure ?

i dont feel like its failure and last sunday in the salisbury and the stanley and town certainly no one was thinking failure .

It must have been tears of joy from the Liverpool players and the mercy less taunting I am getting from city and utd fans must be my imagination then

massive failure .

2home games 1 away. 7pts needed to win the prem.

the mental strength it will take next year to get over that will be telling.


the good points are we played brilliant football. and if we can get tight at the back then we should be up there again next year.

fancy us for the champs league too. us or city

manchester united fans what are they giving you stick for they have f uk all to shout about .

gone from 7th mid table nobodies to champions league easily sorted and as brendan said we took the richest club in sport not just football ever to the last game of the season still with a chance of winning it and you say its failure .
