You’ll Never Walk Alone - Untill...

Unfortunately football fans are very fickle. I think (undeservedly) youth players are treated much harsher if they move on to better things or a new challenge.
Though not sure why he is getting abuse as he literally left them a league and European cup winner. I’m sure once he retires he will be warmly welcomed back into the KOP.
 
Today’s players have no loyalty to clubs it’s all about the money , he’s no different to any other player , they’ve had their moneys worth out of him

And today's clubs have no loyalty to a player or manager it's all about the money.
Totally agree with you, no loyalty either way, it's all about the money.
 
For me it shows up the fragility and rather pointless push for these murals, given that players/managers come and go with TTA being a great example in this respect.
Norwich got rid of theirs dedicated to Daniel Farke and Dirty Leeds did a superb one of Kalvin Phillips then promptly sold him, and I'm sure many others wont stand the test of even the shortest of times

Btw it was 50 years this week that Norman Hunter and Franny Lee squared up at the Baseball* Ground, and that WOULD look great on a mural somewhere :-)

thought the more famous one was of Mackay and Bremner, although the latter was seemingly pleading his innocence.

Not that I condone that sort of behaviour but Lee seemed to be getting the better of things.

Yeah terrible, I mean it's not as if our fans ever gave David Eyres or Richie Wellens dogs abuse, .after they left and every time they returned

Micky Mellon too, who shut the away end up at Turf Moor once.

All football fans are the same. The Liverpool fans are angry he let his contract run down and lied to them by saying he wanted to stay and become captain, then learn Spanish for 18 months because he knew he was off to Madrid (I did find that amusing)

Best thing TAA can do is play a blinder if he plays
 
The bindippers have no class and never will. Ungrateful peasants. It's different when we do it.

The reaction tonight will be mixed but obviously the booing will take the headlines.
It's not like we've booed anybody unfairly is it?
Total hypocrisy from some and that anti big club mentality.

It was 14 years ago yesterday that we won 5 0 at Elland Rd. Maybe a mural of Lua Lua doing a backflip?
 
I believe the issue with the fans is that he left on a free with no compensation to the club after everything the club had done for him. He signs a contract for x amount of time as agreed and doesn't need to renew. He can leave. He gave everything to Liverpool and this is how they treat him. Pathetic

Some real bitter people on here
Scousers, Celtic, Mancs, East Londoners, Wolves, Nobbers etc etc

I dare you to have a pop at Asians or Blacks

So Asians and Blacks can't be Scousers?

I must tell John Conteh that next time I see him. I'll pass on your regards.
 
Must admit I found last night's shenanigans all rather amusing. It also struck me just how utterly absurd the actual of collective booing actually is.

I suspect this debate is becoming a little bit 'over the head' of our dear Neanderthal fellow-fan, Seasideboris...

This is it. That song typifies thier hypocrisy and entire way of life. They act like one big family but turn on each other for fun. It’s the last song they should sing, look at the keeper after the Champions league!
 
The defacing of the mural was pathetic. The booing at the game was a bit childish,
but typical of a lot of football fans of every club.
But it seemed to have the desired affect because he did sweet fa when he came on.
Mind you, his team were very much second best so it would have been difficult
to have much affect on the game.
He's a young, very gifted footballer and I don't blame in one bit for following
his dream. Some obviously disagree.
As someone else pointed out, it's not as we've never booed ex players when they've
come back to Bloomfield Road. Some have had absolute dogs abuse.
 
Liverpool are my Prem team (yeah, I know, obviously behind us) but I don’t understand this. Nobody turns down Real Madrid.

talk of booing a player, i see McLean is back in the news again for assaulting a fan.
 
I defended Liverpool fans a bit before the game on here because I thought there would be plenty who would clap and I always think they are pretty sporting historically.
How wrong I was. Disappointed in them to say the least.
When you consider they accepted a player into their fold who was basically on strike previously it was a bit hypocritical from what looked like the vast majority. Singing about Gerrard as well to make a point...he was a hairs breadth away from going to Chelsea that time and stayed more by chance.
So a 360 degree turn by me on this which doesn't happen that often on here .
I thought TAA deserved better than that .

Yes. He says 4 Cardiff fans confronted him so he got his retaliation in first.

Is that a defence that would stand up in court?

it perhaps shouldn't do but is it relevant that seemingly no Cardiff fan reported it.

When we did the double on them and beat them at Anfield i thought they showed a lot of class that day. A very dignified and respectful response and an appreciation of what it meant to us.

That's the thing for me. In those few years they've morphed into an entitled and classless fan base supporting a team containing cheats and divers. What on earth is that childish booing about whenever the opposition touch the ball? Pathetic! Oh, and Van Dyke has the shittest beard in football. Slott impresses me though.

I've heard the only reason Gerard didn't go to Chelski was because his wife's gangster family leaned on him.
