Amusing satire on Scousehampton's Champion's League ignominy:

It is almost as if Rickie is descending into a meths-drinking hell of squalid bedsits in Liverpool the way we are going on about his career fading away by the week on the bench. All jolly amusing.
Ah, that'll be for the scintillating conversation of King Kenny, Michael "Drone" Owen, Robbie 'Charlie' Fowler, Carragher..to name but a few.
I do envy him.
A ten-minute eulogy about our defence and defensive midfield. Unremitting purring for Neville and Carragher. Then the presenter suddenly asked both if we could finish in the top 4 and, in unison, they immediately spat "Not a chance" in guttural northern tones. It was like a guillotine coming down on our dreams...
It's a shame - used to have a respect and even a little affection for Liverpool for the way they gave the nation great European nights in their heyday to enjoy. They did so in a manner that was likeable, in contrast to the arrogant swaggering of Man U's Euro successes under Ferguson.
Now though, I utterly detest them and make merry of their travails this season.
I hate it when you see gangs of high-vis ****s stopping groups of players celebrating with fans. Celebrating with fans and colleagues are not mutually exclusive activities, either.
Pathetic killjoy, risk-averse, jobsworth health and safety inspired rules like this are killing the game and atmosphere and distancing players from the public that pay their wages.
We really have got some very intelligent people running the club and academy. It is a fantastic club to support these days, I became a fan on 1st May 1976 aged 9, mesmerised by the Cup Final. This current era is less peaky but more sustained in terms of success and the sense of pride. The great side of the early 80s was another golden era.
Henry Winter is probably the brightest football writer in the press too.
