Why are we so negative?

[Guest]

yeah great post mate

**** me how did you become a mod

Your wife must have the time of her life living with you all day dude.

Moaners and booers should shoulder the blame for some of our finishing and nervous displays at home this season. It isn't by chance that Carra had a rant at fans some weeks ago, it's being really felt by the players.

I haven't seen as bad an atmosphere at Anfield for a long long time. These people going there (well not all of them obviously) are a disgrace to this club. Shankly must be turning himself in his grave. Top of the league and people booing. Never seen in his heyday; there was much passion and supporters we'rent as spoilt s they are today.

To be fair i have been most games this season at home, and satuday was one of the liviest games for atmosphere in ****ing ages - it seemed like going 2-0 down was what both the players and the fans needed to get out of bed - much better atmosphere than the west ham game the other week - whilst not condoning the booing cause it was shocking - u can see why people got frustrated, regardless of league position - on the day, the west ham game was just a dreadful game to be at

you dont go the games though do you ? so all these bad atmospheres dont mean dick mate
the atmosphere was ok i was there
and dont embarass yourself with the shankly turning in his grave
nonsense eh

[Elvoz]

Who said settling for draws!??? WTf are you on mate?? Don't put words in my mouth ffs.

I said we should understand that there are no easy games, so when we were 2 nil down at home, I for one was ****in proud at the character we showed to come back and equalise so quickly - tough ****in luck we didn't win but that is football mate.

you sound like a manager no easy games blah blah

mate these are the easiest games we play so i do expect us to win yeah
bookies offered us at odds of 1/5 for each game so i am not alone
i dont assume we will win 3 or 4 nil every week but if we spend the dough we have and play inferior teams the **** yeah i expect us to do better

careful fella the telly must cover a different game

but that is football

What a wonderfully empty concept. Tactics, selection choices, set piece routines, motivation, confidence; "Ah well, that's football".

Was at anfield the other week and some bird sat next but 1 ......read a book throughout the game.....what the **** is that about!!

Although went to Old toilet to watch Scum v sunderland.....it was like a morgue, Anfield has never been that bad for atmosphere.

And so do I buddy, honest. But just take a step back, take a deep breath and you will realise that there were some positives - we were 2 down and came back. Arguably should have won with the chances missed and Sami's header on the post.

All is not lost - the players will be hurting more than us and will be desperate to get back on track so we must trust Rafa and let them get on with it without adding more pressure by getting on their backs.

No it's not nonsense at all. I can't understand why fans boo; it's a disgrace irrelevant of the fact they paid their hard earned money to go to the matches. If they have the slightest chance of getting frustrated and don't like our style of play, or Rafa or whatever, then they should seriously consider putting their money elsewhere and give some proper fans the chance to be there and support the team.

As for 'not going to matches' well on TV you can easily sense if the atmosphere is good or not. I haven't seen a good atmosphere (and that for a team competing for the league and being top of the table) at Anfield for a long time. Not once this season .... maybe away at City which says it all.

Shankly would have been outraged. Fans were much more passionate and loved their team back in these days. Nowadays it seems they just go to matches because it's a tradition and they are bored at home.

That's the impression I have anyway. We're not the best supporters in the world anymore.

We don't want to enjoy ourselves at the moment, we just want to with the ****ing league for the first time in almost 2 decades. As there's a chance, this season is about points and not wasting opportunities for points. If we win it this year we can party in the stands for another 5 years and win f'all as far as i'm concerned.

Tell that to elvoz. He must be sitting in a director's box with some pom pom girls doing some noise in the background.

[Infadel]

Yes, respect that ****in fact that we have to actually ****in play the ****in game to a ****in high standard to ****in get those 3 ****in points!!!!

Jeez... you are carrying on like you expect the ****in team to just turn up and lie down for us. It does not work that way - we have to ****in work and earn a win, so to me that would mean for a ...........start we have to respect our ****in opponent.

You may think I'm being a bit pedantic here, but you missed out a "****in" here!!

What a wonderfully empty concept. Tactics, selection choices, set piece routines, motivation, confidence; "Ah well, that's football".

“Football is a simple game based on the giving and taking of passes, of controlling the ball and of making yourself available to receive a pass. It is terribly simple.”

[Kenneth]

We're not the best supporters in the world anymore.

So? I'd much rather we were the best team in the world instead.

course there are positives i know that we are still top
but im not happy we are struggling to beat teams of this calibre
as i say the chance to win the league is ours to take
its time we took it imo
