Hence why I said "lots of them" and not "All of them"

Well show us a few of the 'lots' of them then. <ok>

To be fair I've never seen you post on here before.. So maybe you wern't one of them (which I never claimed you were).. Fair enough.. <ok>
I can't be bothered to go searching through the Liverpool board right now, but I'd imagine you'd find examples if you were to check around page 200 or so, if you're really interested...

I'm not putting you all in one box, as lots of you guys aren't actually like that... Like Swarbs said, lots of the Liverpool fans on here can actually see the wood from the trees, are realistic, and don't get offended easily.

I was just pointing out that we all heard the same " United are doomed" "We'll finish above Spurs" "Carroll will come good" "United haven't signed anyone decent" "Our manager will be given all the time he needs" "Our midfield is better than United's" stuff before...
Almost identical to what a portion of Liverpool fans are coming out with again this summer.

Whether these guys actually believe this or just pray it happens, I'm not sure.
 
Well I'll nail my colours to the mast then. Since finishing second to you a few seasons back it's been one unmitigated disaster after another, and when we escaped administration by the skin of our teeth (and seeing what happened to Rangers NOBODY is too big to crash) several of us old 606 posters have been preaching caution and patience. I wasn't against Kenny as a caretaker, but once he'd been given over £100m to spend it didn't make sense to sack him now. Rodgers seems okay in what he's trying to (eventually) do - I wanted Martinez when they were talking about getting rid of Roy (rightly) - but although pass-and-move is the badge of all our great teams, and that is, in essence, the same as this tikka-takka or whatever, it's not a switch you can flick on and just start playing it. Four years AT LEAST before we challenge for the league, but probably nearer ten.

Listen, if the roles were reversed I'd take the piss out of you, but I assure that the overwhelming majority of Liverpool fans of my acquaitance, whilst not as fussy about the style of play as some of us, are realistic about our status and immediate future. If you need to exagerate the claims of Liverpool supporters in general by highlighting a few of our more over-optimistic followers then maybe I'm being more pessimistic than I need to be.

MFG and KPR went the most OTT. I remember their conversations vividly:

MFG: "Squad erosion, Hicks and Gilette etc etc"
KPR: "So what you're saying is that LFC are on the way up and Utd are finished"
MFG: "Yes, quite, squad erosion, blah blah"
KPR: "In other words, LFC will finish in 4th ahead of Spurs because Redknapp fiddled some tax"
MFG: "Of course, the signs are all there. I want Rafa to suck my cock"
KPR: "I quite agree that Carrick is **** and Scholes is too old and Utd will struggle to make top four this year"

It was like the Two Ronnies sketch from hell...

Page moss and Red were bad enough, although in a far less demented way. I was banned from their board for daring to disagree with the **** they all talked. I think last year if you didn't agree Carrick was **** and had played zero part in the medals he'd won it was an instant ban.

Liverpool will be lucky to finish in the top 6 nest season. Top 4 no chance.

Have you a crystal ball or are you mystic meg.....????? prey tell how you know where anyone will finish at the end of the season....and while you are at it give us the lotto and euro results, <laugh> the truth is some on here are bricking it that Liverpool could finish top with the amount of threads posted about liverpool will they wont they......<ok>
 
Bit of a bold statement that. It's the equivalent of me saying you are bricking it because you think you'll get relegated and Cardiff will win the championship. Utter nonsense in other words.

To be honest I'm more worried about Newcastle this season, Liverpool will take a while to rebuild (a few seasons, and that's only if things go to plan) but Newcastle have a very settled squad and Amalfitano (possibly Debuchy as well) will be a great addition, they could be dangerous.

It's pretty simple really. You look at the squad Liverpool have, or indeed the squad of any other team, and you say where you think that team will finish based on the quality of their squad. It's called a prediction. I think you'll find most people are able to make them <ok>
 
"how do I get images to work right? (being a bit dim)"

You take the wire attached to your kettle and cut it four inches from the plug. Then take wire and use a knife or sharp implement to fray the two copper wires inside, exposing the wires and then seperate them @ half an inch from each other.

Take these two wires, keeping them seperate, and use insulation tape to attach to your bellend. With the wire now attached to you, insert the plug into the socket and switch on the power from the socket.

Let us all know if that works. <ok>

Gerrard is a great player, but **** me he looks like a proper fan boy in the photo in that article. Daniel Craig is there, straight back and picture of dignity, whilst Stevie looks totally star struck. He looks like he can't believe Daniel Craig has agreed to have a photo taken with him!

And how exactly is that a bad thing?

Quite amazed at the fact that a footballer, someone who all around Europe and the majority of South America is seen as a role model, and one of the most well known people throughout certain continents can still be star struck at meeting someone of such a high pedigree of acting.

I'd classify it as a good thing, but the way you say it.....
