Don't jinx it, or they'll come crawling back in on the last day...couldn't bare the thought.0

Rather them than a team that buy their way to the title a la Chelsea or City. Chelsea are an average sized club at best full of glory hunters who have only ever known bought success. Not earned on the pitch. And as for city, anyone could win the league with that kind of money.13

Spot on. See the number of empty weats at City tonight? Embarrassing. Would never get that at Arsenal, Spurs or Liverpool.DamoNorthStand said:Rather them than a team that buy their way to the title a la Chelsea or City.

Have no particular love for Liverpool fans nor Scousers in general but when I was fifteen I went to Anfield with two Reds fans whose nan lived in Birkenhead. It was probably the first time I'd gone to a game without an accompanying adult, on the train, having a bit of a boys weekend, even though there was no booze. It was the end of the season and if Liverpool beat Tottenham they'd clinch the title (for younger readers there was a time that actually happened). Anfield was packed and as a naive teen, I was slap bang in the middle of the Kop. And I fecking loved it. Even though I wasn't a fan of either club the atmosphere was like nothing I had ever experienced. This was pre-all seater and the terrace undulated like a living organism. When Peter Beardsley slipped in the winner the Kop erupted and the celebrations began. With this experience it cemented my desire to be a fan, to be part of something like that. So when I could afford to travel independently that's what I did. With Charlton.2

Who needs the kop when we have the west stand
I don't mind liverpool if im honest. Quite like brendan rogers. Like stevie g. Having said that I couldn't care less that they have ballsed it up. No city fans in my office so no gloating. So not all bad.0 -

Citeh still gotta beat West Ham yet! West ham have a very good record for last game of the season too, I think it was just 1 defeat in last 12 years
I'd like to see Liverpool win it for a change, their football since Christmas has been great to watch but then again City's has been really good all year0 -

It took them 24 years to shut up about winning the title in 1990, we don't need another 24 years of it.
Rodgers has been tainted by their whinging as well. His post-match interview after the 2-0 defeat to Chelsea was horrible and embarrassing. Didn't talk about how his team had been tactically nullified, instead moaned that Chelsea defended too well. Maybe instead of whinging he should have learnt something from Chelsea's defence, since they then went on to let a 3-nil lead against Palace slip. The disgusting way they all defended Suarez's behaviour last season didn't endear me to them either. I just feel bad for the tattoo artists of Liverpool - this was going to be their payday, now they might end up having to cancel their holidays.11 -
If Liverpool win the title I'll get them tattooed on my arse....
.... Or maybe just wear a t-shirt saying I wimped out... ;-)18 -

And no it wasn't David Moyes.1 -
Every team since the abolition of the minimum wage has bought the title.
Liverpool's rise coincided with the advent of regular televised football, and for over twenty years they were featured nearly every week on BBC or ITV in an era where only four games highlights were shown, they gleaned hundreds of thousands of armchair glory hunters willing to dig out the supporters of the local team they should have followed as title followed title. Boasting about how great "their" team was. Even now some of them claim they are some kind of saint because they still follow the club despite their recent "failure". Failure that includes four League cups, three FA cups, a UEFA cup and a champions league.
All the Liverpool followers I know (bar two) come from no-where near Merseyside - Denmark, Norfolk, Welling and many other places, they all have a "reason" for "supporting" Liverpool, and none of them hold water.
F*** 'em and the horse they rode in on!
COME ON CITY!22 -
There's always someone crying about how a team have bought the league, like every other team has a squad full of youth products and kids they picked up off the street ten minutes before kick off. Saw Aguero, Toure, Silva, Lukaku etc play at Goodison on Sunday. I just felt very happy I got to see such great players in England1

really don't hold man city's success against them, they "broke" the "sky four" and they were a big club anyway, had fallen upon really hard times before and their fans had stuck by their team during it. The arab takeover was well deserved i think, it launched them into the club they should be and made the premier league a lot more interesting and fluid.0

Didn't we buy the League 1 title??0

Fair point mate, I have had mates reference this because Powell bought a whole new squad for the L1 challenge, so I guess it highlights other fans perceptions of other clubs 'buying' a championship/promotion.MrLargo said:
I don't think you can say we bought the title when we only had the 5th highest budget in the division. We bought 5th spot, everything above that was down to managent and players overachieving.Greenie said:Didn't we buy the League 1 title??

City are facing a UEFA sanction for overspending! All the big boys go out and spend a lot of players yes. But Chelski and City have kind of gone to another level and their fans aren't great.
I have a lot of time for Liverpool fans, mostly proper Football fans who support their local team.
Yes a lot of them live in the past but that's because they were spoilt in the 80's and havent done much since.2 -

Except that all the Liverpool fans I know come from miles away (apart from two) and they have won nine major trophies since the eighties. ;-)0 -
Yet to come across any southern City glory supporters, and most of their local fans still can't believe the rise they've made. Liverpool fans, even those who have never been north of Birmingham, believe they are owed something. Fuck 'em.9

And how many is that then? And I meant regarding title, hence the relevance of the threadAlgarveaddick said:cafcfan1990 said:City are facing a UEFA sanction for overspending!
