Where you are from separates you from other areas, we are all different, we all approach things in different ways and this is where Liverpool fans have differences of opinion within our support it's because it's so diverse similar to Manchester United's.


There is a lot of truth in what you say. But surely that is a good thing and it’s probably the biggest asset both these clubs have. I am from Liverpool but proud of when we go to Wembley or overseas we have this massive nationwide and worldwide support. I once spent time living in Southampton and there were three clubs in that town, Liverpool Manchester United and Southampton FC. We are fickle because we demand success even now in our minds we see LF C as the number one club in Europe. We have in the main never experienced mediocrity since Shankly started to build the dynasty in the 1960’s. Think about it anyone under 60 years of age today has never known anything else but LFC at the top. Fickle of course we are because we expect success.
Yes agree with what you say, think am trying to explain why we have so many differences of opinions between ourselves as Liverpool fans. I look at the Mascherano situation the people from Liverpool absolutely detest the feller for what he done the other night, yet the very next day there were Out of Town Liverpool fans with cameras handing him Liverpool shirts to sign while he was sitting in his car at Melwood it makes me sick, the man refused to turn out for us the previous nite. This is my point about although we are Liverpool fans we are all different and where you come from does give you your own identity and a different way of thinking.

The thing with the Argentine is similar to the issue with Mr Benitez he is put on a pedestal as some sort of hero (which he is far from) and its his actions that has unsettled the squad and the preparations for a massive game at man city with his courting of kuyt and his pursuit of mascherano , Please lets get it right the club is not gillett and hicks, its not purslow or broughton , its not hodgson or gerrard its Liverpool Football Club and the massive disrespect from its own supporters is slowly killing it when players who have shafted the club and refused to do the job they are massively paid are backed and wished well , sad sad days we live in as Reds and its not down to the ownership issue .

How many people from Liverpool do you know walk around with cameras taking photo's of players, it's like saying local fans are the same ones who wear those daft Jester hat's and call themselves Ultras. Liverpool people are from very strong working class backgrounds, we have very strong principles and are immensely proud of where we come from and the club which represents us thats why the last thing we would ever do is ask a complete sh*thouse waster like Mascherano sign a shirt for us after basicaly saying I dont want to play for your club.

i know a number of scousers who go to melwood to get their pics taken with the players ...... when i was at college we were told that we would be going to melwood for the day to look at how they maintained the pitches etc (i was studying horticulture and lfc sent the YTS lad andy to knowsley community college on day release for free in return for allowing students to go to melwood and have a look round and also for taking one of the students on a day release to melwood to help the ground staff ..... my mate was the jammy get who got the day release there while i was on the course - everton did a similar thing and the bloke that got to go to bellefield for the day release went there wearing a full liverpool kit and carrying a liverpool bag bless him!) ...... anyway a lot of the lads on the course took cameras to get pics of the players etc - they were gutted that most of the first team were away at the time! ..... it is not just oots that want pics and only a complete idiot thinks it is
