Scottish Red

I don't see much whining except from Rafa. I don't want us turning into Arsenal or Chelsea. Alonso is a top professional anyway. I never see him moaning. Why are you guys scapegoating him? Why not that girly haired Lucas who DID get sent off?

City fans can like whoever they want. To be honest I don't care enough about the Manchester Billionaires anyway. I was referring to the United fans.

It's called banter...

They are Mancs. What do you expect? It's not like Liverpool fans are going to sing about murdering Evertonians when half their families are blue.

RIP Phil. Legend.

Yes, you also celebrated like you won the champions league. I won't moan though. We'd do the same. As long as you don't bring a DVD out then I'm happy to endure the 'rippings' I've endured this week.

Pienaar should have been off...

I continue to support Rafa Benitez but he's getting ridiculous. We were awful the other night.

Wrong No snow here. Oban has a flipping micro climate. It's always cold but never snows...

The main concern about that one I guess is...well, the Kop. We love it. We'll miss it if/when we move from Anfield and without an adequate Kop the fans won't be happy.

I'd agree that a groundshare would be a brilliant way of reuniting the fans to some degree but it would work much more in Everton's favour. We need a much bigger ground to compare with United which is fact unfortunately. Groundshare would be an option if our two duff owners could be arsed doing anything about it.

So the fact that Chelsea had one shot on goal (75 minutes) didn't have anything to do with it? We dominated. Facht.

Look it up again. His comments on his contract and how "by the way, it's not been signed yet" followed by a wry smile.

We've got Daniel N'Gog of course. Duh! Who needs Fernando Torres?

Keane was never wanted, that is clear, but to say Rafa doesn't have a sense of humour is rubbish. Have you seen some of his interviews? Even his supposed rant was packed with humour towards the end.

How can you say that when Bosingwa didn't even get charged? They probably thought about it and then saw OH, it's a Liverpool player, who cares then...

Byebye Keane. He was treated badly but it was never really what Rafa wanted (he'd wanted barry). Oh well. We need another striker...badly.

Benitez calling Everton a small club was banter and the only bitter thing was the way Everton took it in my view. If Shankly did it then people would be taking it as that, banter, but because Rafa said it Blues don't like it. I can see why it'd annoy you but when Jose Mourinho called Liverpool a small club you didn't see us taking to the streets. Just a side note that though. I agree with efctaxi's point about deteriorating human values/morals. I'm a bit of a socialist so agree with that sentiment.

United to win the league, so my head says. Heart says Liverpool. Relegated: Stoke, WBA, Bolton.

Interesting source for debate. Have things really got this bad? Since moving to Scotland I've felt a little bit out of the loop on how things have changed. My family down on Merseyside are split in two but still united as Merseysiders. They refuse to buy the S*n, they left messages of support for Rhys Jones and in times of crisis football alleigance has not mattered. The "friendly rivalry" is obviously not as friendly as it once was but is it now as bad as these journos make out? I'd never sing songs about Neville or any of the Everton players. I think it is wrong on a moral level. Songs about Rafa Benitez at Old Trafford can be abided - it's football banter. But the level of abuse has got ridiculous. Is it as bad as people make out and what were the main causes? Obviously post-Heysel there was a lot of complaint from the Everton fans but after Hillsborough things seem to calm down again and even the Rhys Jones murder. What's your take on it, guys? Are people just overreacting?

Today justified my faith in Rafa. Crazy substitutions? Benayoun changed the game.

I don't often post on other team's sites (this is pretty much the only one) but it's easy to see which ones are good. TIA I'm biased to as I write a monthly review over there but that's superbly run and moderated. The Blues that have posted on there are given so much leeway as well RAWK is the biggest and also attracts the most **** unfortunately. There are other good ones though. OTK is one. But now I'm just quoting Liverpool fansites which won't interest you! ToffeeTalk is well run though so well done guys!

Yep, but if we were going for all of Merseyside we could include Tranmere Rovers I suppose.

We just had an idiot blue on TIA that got immediately banned for posting rubbish about OOTers. A complete wind up. The OOT argument is so foolish. The cheeky nipper asked me rather sarcastically where Oban was? So when a Liverpudlian (albeit half-Welsh ) moves away he suddenly loses his heritage?

Gerrard is worth no more than 30 million. Why? Because I think football should get back to the good old days gradually. I'm so happy that Kaka turned that contract down. Football is dying
