Liverpool v Chelsea (Wembley) FA Cup Final

[Doc_Piptorious]

At the risk of getting called an ignorant convict, can someone please explain exactly what motivates the anthem booing to me?

I get that Liverpool hasn't exactly been treated well by the govt and media over the last 40 or so years, and definitely sympathise with any anti-monarchy stance, but I'm struck by the fact that the booing appears to be a recent thing. Happy to be educated here.

Whilst there are factors from the past that no doubt play a part, I would imagine that what happened before the recent game against Man City played a big part in fuelling the protesting of the anthem.

When the minutes silence last month for those killed at Hillisborough was jeered by City supporters and there was no outcry from moral crusaders such as the Daily Heil and Simon Jordon when that happened

Other things could play a part too imo but it does appear like the offended parties are picking and choosing when to be offended as it is not as though suppprters of other clubs have not booed the anthem in the past and is not as though the supporters of other clubs have not made very offensive chants in the past and right up to this day.

I put a link in the Klopp thread to a Dave Maddock article on it.

Here's a similar one, ten years ago from David Prentice:

Wasn't Jordan one of the 'muh freedoms' folk during Covid. Now he seems to keen to knuckle under.

I didn't think it was but saw it in the twitter comments

No that is not Sean Cox.Does not look like him even though the footage is blurry. Sean is still in a wheelchair and unable to stand afaik.


Sean was at the CL semi final and was a guest of honour at that game.

[Norbs]

Was that Sean Cox they were meeting?

All good lads there but Naby, Origi, Konate, Joe, VVD, Tsimikas and Thiago are the men there. Those hugs will mean a lot.


And wtf is Konate doing with the come on thing before going off camera

Jordan says: "Surely you don't have a right in a civilized society to boo the national anthem"

What is he suggesting there?

He's thinking of North Korea

Not seen this mentioned anywhere other than TAW but did anyone clock Alisson grabbing the ball after Mount's pen? It defo looked like it was going to spin in from where I was sat Not sure how he got away with it

I noticed that at the time, but if he hadn't grabbed it and the ball spun into the goal the pen would have counted as a goal. There's nothing wrong with the GK touching the ball multiple times only the kicker. Play is only dead when the ball stops moving, goes out of play or the ref whistles it dead. Good awareness from Alisson but nothing untoward.

Edit: Just seen a number of other people already responded saying the same.

Imagine not being able to piece together why folk might be unsatisfied with the current (let alone historic) state of affairs.
