Honestly same, all this downtime has been ridiculous. Host provider is a waste of space, but hopefully they'll leave us alone now with the cloudfare

Need to find a decent football discord server tbh, the one I'm in now is.....on another level of shithousery

 

We've had so many classic moments since this place has been down tho, most important one being !!!

I'm so happy to see Klopp FINALLY win it and celebrate with his players. Until now, it still feels a little surreal. After whatever that fuckery in Kiev and even that Robben goal, it seems like everything is just destined to go against him but I'm glad it's different this time. I've been following this guy since Dortmund and it's still hard to believe he somehow ended up with Liverpool. At first, it was just a fantasy of mine and I thought he would replace Wenger at Arsenal. Anyway, what a year. I don't think I've ever been this emotionally invested in any sports as I have been this year. First time I have been in love with a team this much since his Dortmund teams as well. Heck, it might even surpass that. :3

 

Anyway, "2131298319204809127058349 hUgS" and "cEleBrATinG a dRaW aGAinSt wESt BrOm aT hOMe" does work after all. man knew what he was doing since day 1. 

 

also, nice to see this site still somehow alive. Who else is still here? lol i don't even know why i keep randomly going to this site.

Too bad about today tbh. As a Liverpool fan, I think we were quite lucky to get the 3 points in the end.

Man Utd fan here. Ever since Moyes days I've learned to stop worrying about what kind of winning it is and just settle for 3 points whenever we can find it lol. I miss that 1-0 against Leicester thanks to a Rashy pen so much :')

Man Utd fan huh? You poor thing

How long you been a fan for? You ever witnessed the glory days and superstar players? Or are these recent banter years all you know? Thanks for taking Liverpool’s banter crown whew. 

I’m so excited, finally gonna see this Liverpool team in the fuckin flesh this weekend. See Van Dijk with my own eyes  Praying our good run continues!

Hahaha, thankfully I'm an old coot (relative to this forum anyway) and have been a fan since ~2001. Becks is the OG goat for me, and still is my sporting hero - was absolutely devastated when he was sold to Madrid and stopped following the sport for a short time after (I'm a sucker for the footie, what can I say?). It's honestly hard to feel sorry for us since we're still such financial giants and still manage to be utter rubbish year after year. The board has a fantastic ability to market and bring in record profits but not the faintest idea how to run a football club, and this is not a problem any manager can come in and fix. 

Hope you have fun, but I not too much cause I'll still be at home praying for the Liverpool point drop that never comes.

Oh wow that's interesting, can't say I was expecting that. Most people on here are probably born in 2001 lol. Becks will always be a legend! Are you English? Only he can single handedly blow our chance of a World Cup final as well as take us to the World Cup with one kick. Legends only. Well, it's tough times right now, but least you're sticking by your team. To fix the rot they gotta start from the foundations tbh...the board are fuckin clueless. But it doesn't seem like they care about Champions League or even the title chase anymore. And I like Ole, I remember him from his playing days (I'm old af) but he's unfairly taking the flak for a shit board and a shit team. Least you started getting rid of some of the deadwood, still a long way to go though.

Man Utd fans always stay being obsessed with Liverpool for some reason when they should worry about their own team, checking our results more than they own smh how can a real Man Utd fan even prefer City to Liverpool??

Also, this...sorry but it's a no.

Some of these choices, idk what the players were smoking that day No City players? Also, Mane is so overlooked it's unreal.

Laughed for a good minute at this WTF. Will never forget that match from last season tbh. Truly bonkers decision.

Klopp getting the trophy is probably the only good decision of last night really. Y'all need someone like him; build from the ground up again.

I'm unfortunately not English, but Canadian that grew up in Vietnam. I support England at the WC though since none of my national teams ever make it Becks' goals against Greece, Argentina and Ecuador were WC highlights for me! If there are Liverpool fans who've stuck by the club since the late 80's until now, this is nothing yet lol. I really don't quite see any foreseeable way the board will change its ways until literally the current Glazers in charge die and the next generation get bored. I still like Ole, I like his signings and think he should have more windows, and United games are way less of a dread to watch now but dear Lord, when we go down a goal he can't motivate/make proper subs to change the game. 

WE'RE the noisy neighbors now, banging on about history and the Class of '92, Sir Alex + challenging for the title as if any of those people/things are still associated with the club lol. Most Utd fans I know and online prefer City since they're not historical rivals like Liverpool and their success isn't grassroots (until their academy players start to fill up some spots at least). Any time City win a title, the year is a write-off. 

[Carefree]

Chelsea could field an entire starting XI of academy graduates:

The best part is that most of this team is very promising!

[Pseudo]

Conte really out there winning Serie A with Lukaku and A. Sanchez. Happy for them, though - hopefully Alexis signs permanently for them by the end of the season. 

[depleter]

Can someone just sack ole already....Ughhh..A loss against arsenal tomorrow and we are 3 points above relegation and 13 points off top.....

[Pseudo]

Headless Chicken FC week after week. What a sloppy, sloppy goal to give away to Auba - no way he ever misses those. Sigh. 

[Yuri]

At least Man Utd are in the top half again now, silver linings

Nah I’m just kidding lol. I think Sunday’s game will be interesting now though, def gonna watch it

Poch to Madrid in the summer?

Lmao, no VAR has denied Alkmaar 2 penalties so far while we haven't even had a shot on target nearing the 80th minute. If this ends 0-0, AZ will feel like it's a loss.

Are you Ole out?

United is like AC Milan. They're 0 or 1 goal merchants. But watch them save up all that goal scoring energy for Liverpool and somehow beat them 3-0 ffs. 

Also it was cool to see Liverpool pay tribute to Rodgers-era against Salzburg yesterday.  

I can't believe this forum is still alive again

Are you Ole out?

Ole out while letting Woodward playing both CEO and DoF won't change a thing no matter who we bring in, though as much as I love Ole, he just isn't tactically cut out for the level that we imagine ourselves to still be. His substitutions always seem questionable and too late into the game, and we aren't tactically flexible with regards to our opponent (ex. continually playing a counterattack setup against teams that are comfy putting 10 men behind the ball). In addition, we also clearly need a new fitness regimen/physio team since we've been permanently in an injury crisis ever since Ole got the team to play at a faster pace. 

All this is to say yes, Ole out, but he should take the entire board with him. And whoever replaces him preferably should also want to play a pressing/counterattacking style Ole's been trying to implement rather than scrapping everything, turning over the squad, starting feud after feud with players and staff, and putting the club right back where we started with the drama. But who am I kidding, that's exactly what's going to happen, and Woodward/Glazers will still play DoF. 

[Carefree]

I love how whenever United play like shit (so once or twice a week now) that fucking Rio Ferdinand clip gets posted like 10000 times per second across the internet and it's still so funny

[Pseudo]

One positive thing to take away from today is that RAPTORS NBA PRE-SEASON IS STARTING SOON, WOOOO!!!  (Hahaha I need a drink so badly)

[Yuri]

Seriously who gives a fuck about the Euro's.....just give us back the Premier League

Gonna be meaty next weekend though whew, I'm looking forward to it.

Chelsea players getting injured on international break, what a shock

I hate how we have three international breaks so early in the season, like yeah I understand that playing them in December/January/February would be a nightmare for the players and a horrible idea, but that doesn't change the disappointment of being inundated by internationals almost immediately after the new season starts. At least after November we won't have another for four months...
