I know blokes from Liverpool who don't hate United as much as you lol.

So it's that time of the year, Liverpool vs Manchester United. It's safe to say that this is the most heated rivalry in any sport today. Everyone knows how much I hate those pricks. Out of every sporting team there is in the world, Manchester United is by far the one I hate the most. No other team comes close to them, well, maybe the Roosters but they are a long way behind United. Whenever they fluke a win against us, I usually fall into a deep depression that lasts about 6 months. In less than 6 hours, Liverpool will be facing these scum bags again and for my family's sake, I hope Liverpool walks away with the 3 points. Not even a draw will suffice for me. It's a win or nothing. Im usually wishing all sorts of hateful things on United but from now until the end of the game, it'll be to a higher degree, if that is possible.

For all you fickle United fans who have gone quiet since Ferguson retired, just remember, if you chant any anti-scouse chants, your captain is a Scouser. We are the only team in the UK with the European Cup in our trophy cabinet, something you lot will never have and never forget that Liverpool will ALWAYS be better than United. That is a fact.

Q. Why can you only drink from a mug in England?
A. Because all the cups are in Manchester

I know you have told the story before but I've forgotten how you came to follow them?

 

[happy_tiger]

That is a negative on that, Geo. I believe they only won it once back in 1965.

LOL Geo

Probably an idea if you check up first :brick:

Winner of the European Cup in 1965 , Finalist in 1976

3 FA Cups 1964,1975 and 1980 (first time I saw WHU play )

Intertoto cup in 1999

Also won the War League Cup in 1940

One of 9 sides never to drop down 2 Leagues

Back when I was about 6 or 7, my Grandfather use to watch them on TV during the Big League Soccer days. I was living in Ashcroft at the time and was thinking that it was the local team. It wasnt until I was about 10 that I realised there was a Liverpool in the UK too but by then I was hooked. I never wavered from them, even during those lean 90's years.

Liverpool are only 2 points from the top and have had a much tougher start to the season than the teams above them, facing Arsenal, Tottenham, Leicester City, Chelsea and Man U. Giving them a total of 11 points of their 17.

FACT!

Klopp will deliver us a title during his reign here. I struggle to watch any team that has Mourinho in charge,he's the most negative Manager in the world. They've spent a fortune on Pogba and Zlatan but still park the bus, it's horrible to watch.
I grew up in Liverpool,Sydney and also thought that was the local team. I now have my sons hooked on LFC and in 2019 we're heading over to catch a game at Anfield,dream come true.

Bit hard to score goals while Mourinho is parking the bus and playing a 6-3-1 formation

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

Dat grin.

I think the special one has lost his shine TBH. Even then, he was only ever good for a two to three year tenure before the players got sick of his crap.

Yeah as much as it pains to say they have started very well. I agree that Klopp will likely take them to the trophy.
