My gran would mention LSD, which turned out to be old currency, and not a new age experience.

I remember asking for a quarter of sweets when I was a nipper at an old newsagents. I had no idea what it was a quarter of, only that's what you said to get the right amount for your money.

I'm off to look at our pics of our women's team and their 3 trophies, to get me over the heartbreak of the world conspiring against Liverpool men's destiny of the quadruple. 🙂

Book your fake ticket and start building up your sense of entitlement, despite public safety, now. Plenty of time to work on conceited flags with dreadful rhyming too.

Klopp seemed confident, telling fans to book rooms in Istanbul now for next year's final.

As their big flag said, imagine being them. It brings a tear to the eye, although that could be the tear gas. Then add more hurt, as it means so much more to them, than us mere mortals who are only fans of other clubs.

Liverpool bossed most of the half. But you could see the out ball Madrid were looking for, and they were hiding their time until the chance came. A couple of little fumbles from Liverpool gave Madrid openings, and TAA had a couple of misplaced passes early on. With Madrid looking stronger at the end of the half, it should be a good second half. They said the Liverpool fans had nearly all got in early on. Hopefully everyone is safe.

Delia's catering is safe! 🙂

Tear gas being used?

Let the best team win, for me.

Lots of USA flags beside the owners down the leagues... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_owners_of_English_football_clubs

True. There's no guarantee of success. I don't know the level of investment either. I read an article a while back about US investment at all levels of the pyramid. There would seem to be a wide set of backgrounds interested in having their own club. As I type, I note Wrexham have just lost in a play off final. I don't know where miltonaggro heard about the Depp consortium. 🙂

Perhaps they'll get Alex Crook to make sure the new owners are rich, and deserving, enough to be in the Premier League. 😆 Their teams have capitulated even more than we've managed to do in spells in their last two top flight seasons. I'm sure they expected more from their players, and I guess have concluded that to get up and stabilise takes more resources than they have. Another warning to our lot that other clubs are looking to push forward.

Good point about Crocker. So good, I noticed someone editing their post shortly afterwards to incorporate it. 🙂

I hope it's something I never hear us saying. A chest thumping, conceited gesture that fans of one club are special, or the most passionate, or deserving, or as connected to their communities, or have had more highs and lows, or somehow have deeper feelings for the game. Things that could be said for any number of clubs. So, as a phrase, it couldn't mean less to me.

It's good that you're not just writing them off on results, and that you're willing to see what squad we have assembled. It can take some time for some things to fall into place, but hopefully lots of green shoots (any kind of shooting would be nice) by then.

He's one I'd hope stays as well. He's done pretty much everything Ralph has asked of him, in a variety of roles. But not long left on his current deal.

The worry is that those other voices will dilute the focused, driven instructions Ralph gives, resulting in an unskilled looking team bereft of ideas and confidence. 🙂

If we draw this year's top 6 in our opening fixtures, would putting a decent shift in, work in lieu of any points?
