Shout to the Klopp: Liverpool FC 18/19

Although grateful for the advice, I doubt that that is the reason why Liverpool's fans do not wish to address Howard Gayle's recollection of the late Tommy Smith.

Mr Gayle was also interviewed again shortly before the club's Champions League final victory:

Howard Gayle recalls racism, discrimination at Liverpool FC
Maybe we're all racists then.:confused: What do you think the reason is? Strangely enough I've had a number of conversations with other reds about what Howard Gayle revealed about his time in a red shirt. Everyone of them I've spoken to have have condemned Smith for that but to be fair if you want to find out what people think you're not going about it in a way that's going to get much response.

Anyway you've still not got the quoting bit right chap. You need to click 'reply' to the post, use the 'quote' function, and or tag the poster using the @ sign followed by their username without a break. Drop me a PM if you like and I'll go through it with you.


Why don't you start a thread on the subject? I think it's something well worth discussing TBH, in fact historical and modern day racism in football has been discussed quite well in the footy forum over the years. You're more likely to get a discussion on the subject if you share your own views too and discuss it rather than predetermining what others think and just bombing threads with links. It looks a bit baited when you suggest that you suspect there's a reason why people haven't responded to you just posting a link, especially when you just come back and post another link without making any real attempts to converse on the matter.

This is the team that Liverpool fans were supporting on Saturday night.

Everyone of them an equal except for Virgil. He's from another planet.

Fekir and Lallana news :hmm:
Nabil Fekir, who came so close to joining last summer, is available for just €15million.

The Lyons forward is likely to be sold this summer as his club have decided to cash in, and there is sure to be serious interest in the 25-year-old.

Liverpool were linked with Fekir again in January after their failed move last summer, but it is unclear whether Jurgen Klopp still retains interest in him.
Adam Lallana has confirmed he will be staying put at Liverpool.

Asked by PA if he was staying, Lallana said: “Yeah. Absolutely no question about it. I couldn't be happier here, winning Champions Leagues.

“I know my ability and I know what I can give. And the gaffer and his staff and the recruitment guys have all made it clear they know I have a big part to play with what's to come next, so I'm buzzing with that.

“No question my future is here and I can't wait for what's next.”
 
That's a shame. :rolleyes: I thought we'd offload the sick-note-Bannana.
He was Klopp's actual next door neighbour for a long while and they are pretty buddy. I don't doubt his commitment to the club but he is injury prone and at best a squad/substitute player given the talent LFC have.

I like lally, just a shame I can't remember him doing a single thing this season.
Yeah but that's the thing. Given how long he's been with us I've had so many frustrating times squeezing myself into a seat on the kop and thinking "Fuck me my knees are fucking killing me and now No Brains is on".

He's got so much talent but he's never been fit and he just runs himself in circles when he does get a game, he's very frustrating to watch because you know if he ever got fully fit and gathered the confidence from playing more games he'd be a good sub. He did have one good run out for us this year, I can't remember the match, they do roll in to one these days but I had a posh seat off a mate of mine an I am wondering if I'm just being kind to him because my knees had more space :hmm::D

He frustrates the hell out of me and I do think we need the strength in the squad that the likes of him and Studge just don't seem to bring when they're called on. Put Hendo, Shacko, Milner on the bench and they come out of the traps like men possessed. That's what we need.

So I've pretty much come to terms that my first born won't be called Divock.

So instead I'm focusing in first words, it's inevitably going to be 'Allez, Allez, Allez' or 'Fuck the Mancs'.

Now, bare in mind, my first word was Food, my sister's was No and Mrs o87's was Horse, I feel this is definitely doable.

(Word/sentence, obviously.)
 
Watched the Steven Gerrard 'Make Us Dream' doc on Amazon Prime last night, it was a lot sadder than I was expecting it to be and ended up going to bed on a bit of a downer.

As a fan I suppose you take a lot for granted but defiantly more than once especially in the before and after G&H era he really had to carry the team then during the G&H era having to endure with Rafa who clearly couldn't deal with the emotional ticking time bomb that was Stevie G. You probably don't think about the emotional toll that takes on a local lad, then there was the two near misses in the Premier League weighing on him. Defiantly should have won more medals than he ever did by staying (just about) a one club man.

Worth a watch, maybe don't watch it before bed though unless you want to go to bed depressed or more depressed than you already are.
