Match Day Thread Liverpool FC v Sunderland AFC - Wednesday 3rd December 2025 - KO 20:15

Brilliant thread, just catching up.

Been a lucky lad this week. I was at a work event in Liverpool from Monday and just got back. Was doing somework with a Liverpool lad on Tuesday and we talked footy. He said come to my box tomorrow, so I did

I have had a few rough old times watching Sunderland in Liverpool. Not this time. Class. Was treated like a gent, by gents. Few beers, nice meal, great craic. None of them looking down on little Sunderland. All massively respectful.

I thought we were magnificent to be honest. Proud as punch I was. The lads all did too and most said we deserved more. One said we look like a Euro ready side. Another we are in top 2 sides to play them this year. Best comment though was that our fans are what fans should be. Made my little face light up.

I had to explain why I was so excited to see ONien come on. They loved that story.

Like I say, I am a lucky lad. Luckier still to support this brilliant side.

Mate, I'll take another draw against City as long as we beat those entitled black and white bastads
If someone had of said to me before the league one play offs in 2022 "yous will beat Chelsea and draw with Liverpool and Arsenal in three years and be scrapping for a place in Europe come Christmas" I'd of probably asked for a bit of whatever they were smoking

 

I'm probably out on a limb, but I'm not even particularly bothered about the game against that lot. To me now it is just a game.

You can't govern your emotions, and since they were subsumed by Saudi Arabia they mean no more to me than would a team from Vanautu. Last time out, the plucky little Saudis fielded a match day squad that cost roughly £600m, and it can be more.

We, among others, have shown them how an actual football club is meant to be run. Whatever happens now, with us and them, now and in time to come, the slavering and craven welcome given to a psychopathic murderer as their "saviour" by most up there, has ruined them and their reputation in perpetuity. It was and remains a humiliating spectacle, they know it, and it is killing them.

 

Alt Ending review:

 

It rhymes with clucking bell.

 

That should say "Premier League", it's far more for us if you include the Championship
