I think everyone should just leave it now. I understand both sets of arguements but the one thing that bothers me is I've not seen anyone say they dislike oot's but people have just said it's a different type of cultural upbringing from someone supporting the club who lives in an around the city than to someone supporting the club from a different country for example, Thailand! I'm just giving so don't shoot me for saying Thailand it's just an example

And as there are TWO clubs in the city, dont people from the city also have to choose between them, so in essence you chose to support Liverpool also wink And I know, maybe your parents handed it down to you, funnily enough people from outside the city can have this also, but what about those from mixed families? They certainly have to choose between them! If the club represents the city then surely the team should be made of 11 Scousers, yes? What's your position on OOT's playing for and managing the club?

Players are just employees nothing more nothing less, they get paid to do a job, if it's not Liverpool they play for they will ply there trade somewhere else, we are not talking about the team here we are talking about the Football Club it'self and the reasons people support it. there are good reasons like people who support there local club which for me is what it's about and then you go to other extremes where a feller from say Bangkok will support it because he likes the colour of the Liver Bird on the club badge, thats why I say there is a big difference between supporters.
