bit rich coming from someone constantly saying we should settle for being a mid table club and that we will never win the league... Not really...I accept football has changed and we are no longer big enough to win the league,,Everton.....Villa...Spurs...Arsenal and Leeds all big clubs with rich history have all had to face the same reality...just that some of our fans are sadly in denial..the penny will drop eventually so no worries... Everton is your club, don't deny this. And you don't moan, you are just pathetically miserable. I don't think it's all because of football, it has to be your life, cannot be otherwise, you are a model bitter. Everton could quite easily been my Club, some of my family members are toffs...suppose most people born in the City could easily be born blues or reds or vice Versa it's the way it works...probably the same in Manchester, Birmingham or Sheffield with families being split. I was born a brought up red am happy with that as it's provided me plenty of highs and not so many lows...do have some affection and respect for Everton tho as family and friends support them and they are a team of my city which I am very proud of... Then we have people like yourself...no ties with the city, Club or it's people...picked them to support out of a host of clubs based purely and simply because of fame and what they have won...you are what innfootballing terms is called a Gloryhunter they are ripped apart and disliked by normal fans as much as people who start supporting one club then change when another starts winning more stuff, these are what we call turncoats...you are a footballing traitor as you probably have a perfectly good local club which you have turned your back on, no loyalty whatsoever... By the way this is just my opinion of you...I could be wrong but I will bet am closer to the truth than not.... Are you aware that the man who started this site is from Yorkshire, not Liverpool? Is he a glory hunter for supporting Liverpool and not Leeds? Now me, I am a foreigner. My family never watched football, and knew noting about it, but I had fallen in love with the game. I started supporting Liverpool 14 years ago when I was still a child because there wasn't a professional team in Georgia at the time, and I had English coaches growing up, my favorite of whom was a scouser. I loved the game and wanted to watch the English play (the English game was the be all end all to us Americans back then). He told me that to improve, I needed to watch the game at the highest level, and it would be easier to do that if I had a team to root for. He was a red, and he was my hero, so Liverpool became my team. I didn't know anything about their history or their stature, I didn't know if they were any good, I just wanted to be like my coach. I later immersed myself in the history and learned those things which solidified my feelings about the team, and I greatly admired Steven Gerrard, and he was always the player I wanted to emulate. I also had friends and teammates who supported other clubs growing up who watched the game, and it was difficult for someone like me who wasn't very wealthy to watch professional matches back then in America, unless I knew someone who had a fancy satellite tv package. The friends I had with access to such things at the time usually often chose Manchester United, Chelsea, or maybe Arsenal because they were winning at the time, and I got plenty of stick, especially because most of them chose United. But I had my heart set on Liverpool, and I stuck by them, though supporting Chelsea or United might have been easier on my nerves if I were a glory hunter. It's gotten much easier to watch games here in the past 10 years or so, Now during my time as a fan, Liverpool have had some success, but they have never won a league in my lifetime (Born in 1991). Meanwhile, United, Chelsea, City, Arsenal, Leicester, and even Blackburn rovers have won it. There was the Champions league in 2005, the treble in 2001, and the odd cup success, but in my lifetime United have been more successful in Europe than us (one Europa League and 2 European Cups) and Chelsea have been just as successful (1 European cup and a Europa League). Does a glory hunter choose Liverpool under the circumstances? Now you, you were born in different circumstances than me. You were born a city with two great football clubs, with access to the game I couldn't have even dreamed of as a kid. You had two choices, and you mentioned you had bluenoses as family, but you (or by extension your other family members) chose Liverpool because as you said "they provided me with plenty of highs and not too many lows." You had two choices in your backyard, and you picked the more successful one. So who's the glory hunter, me or you?

never heard the term Glory Hunter then? Wonder why haha... Because most Liverpool supporters aren't backward thinking cvnts who would say that to a fellow fan. see this is where you have it all wrong...the stick...the banter whatever you want to call it goes both ways...you ever hear me complain getting called a bluenose or questioning my support....answer is no...I can take it just like I like to give a bit of stuck out...I think your a gloryhunter that's my opinion...I reckon there is at least half a dozen football clubs between your house and Anfield but you picked Liverpool because of fame and glory associated with us...this is my opinion like you think am an Evertonian or think I come here just to winde people up which I don't.... The way I see it is this...I come on here to post about the club mostly negative but that's not important I post valid things...if people want to sensibly discuss my opinions I am more than happy to do that....if you want to insult or call names fine I can do that...but be warned I can fight my corner rather well...anyway back to the thread... I have you down as more of a manc scum. I know some Everton fans from school (glory hunting twats that they are) and none of them are anything like as silly as yourself.

He’s no better than those he’s calling glory hunters but is too thick to realise. He had a choice and no doubt went for the one winning at the time.

He does act like a demented clown at times.
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.

Haha your all tugging st my heart strings here trying to somehow deflect that most of you only picked Liverpool due to the fame and glory....
Just answer me this simple question...where would Football be if everybody did what most of you lot had done and picked a famous or successful club to support instead of your local one or the club closest to where you live ?
What would happen to the likes of Mansfield...Southend...Shrewsbury...Brighton...Notts Counry etc if there fans turned there backs on there local clubs like most of you have done...
Where would your football be then ? Where would the likes of Harry Kane...Deli Ali....James Milner...Vardy...Cahill and Danny Rose
Or players from yesteryear like Collymore...Kevin Phillips..Les Ferdinand....or Ian Wright who all came up through lower level clubs.,come from or progress from..
If everybody did what most of you have done and picked Liverpool, United, Ciyj and Chelsea the game would finish so before you try and have a go at me just thank your lucky stars that not all football supporters have done what you have and have instead stayed loyal to there local club with some probably going out of business in the next ten years due to people like yourselves turning there backs on them....
Feel free to reply...good or bad will try to respond to as many as I can haha...
Lovely cup of tea and a slice of apple cake. Lovely

Why Liverpool over Everton then? You’re just a local glory hunter and a mug of one to boot.

Lovely haha I absolutely love it...you don't know how much I was hoping for just that sort of reply because it proves I am right...thank you so much...I am perfectly happy to leave it there after that as my question has been well and truly answered... Professional help, swallow your pride and seek professional help. It is never too late.
