JH Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Thoroughly deserved this for all that crying and celebrating after the win over City. thisssssss Exactly. People backtracking like crazy and saying that it's still been a tremendous season for them etc. - yeah that is the case - but it doesn't change the fact that they practically had a hand on the title and they've thrown it away. 2nd is still 2nd best, whether it was expected in August or not.

Yorkie Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Aye I thought at the time that huddle was cool - but, in hindsight, he might as well have been saying "we're going to bottle this." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Difficult not to though i'd imagine. I do think they've been a bit unlucky, the Gerrard slip. They probably deserved it more than Man City till that moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 They've bottled this far in excess of how we did in '96. Man United chased us down like a rabid dog, this mob have just chucked it away through their own naivety. Load of guff that. They lost to Chelsea at home and drew with a team in brilliant form away on the back of a crazy amount of wins. The big bottle that history should remember is Fergie gifting it to Citeh when seven points ahead (same games played) with seven games to go. Ferk, they were even 4-2 up against Everton with ten minutes to go when it all started going pear-shaped. It doesn't fit the big Fergie narrative though, so all we get is Keegan and possibly from next season Brendan Rogers. Lets brand them losers instead. Just as a parallel, Clarence Seedorf may have won the CL four times, but he was also in the Milan side that threw the game away in Instanbul. Shit can happen to anyone.

Kanj Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Aye I thought at the time that huddle was cool - but, in hindsight, he might as well have been saying "we're going to bottle this." Hindsight sure. But I'd give anything for my squad to be in that position again or show they actually care. Mind you, I'm going to coin it - The Slip - was probably the moment they lost the title, and I don't really know if I feel happy or gutted for them. My best friend and my older brother are both Liverpool supporters and I actually feel for them too. Personally, if City go on and get 3 points on Wednesday at least we won't be a crime scene at Anfield had they gone on to score 5 and take the title. We'd have to see that video, and replay, OVER AND OVER for eternity. Pictures, compilations, adverts, bla bla bla...shit now I hope they do? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got nothing but apathy and anger for us - at least 2 people close to me can celebrate something. But nah, not having the constant videos, youtubes, pictures, etc of Suarez running silly and Colo looking around after he's been bummed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away fans who haven't seen their team win the league in decades devastated having just chucked away crucial points being taunted by home fans who are nowhere near the title race. Shit now I remember- it was Anfield in 1996. Suck it up bitches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Aguero out of the City game. Don't worry, forget about Sergio Aguero, Sergio Tacchini could navigate his way past Nathan Baker with ease, and he's in his late 70s now. Although, saying that, I shall genuinely be having a few pennies on the draw. Seriously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
