Couldn't hear that awful anthem on the TV, and then the rendition of YNWA. Beautiful

Chant of the day, and most on point thing of this whole scandalous disgrace, was ‘**** yer Royal Family feed the poor!’

Never heard of him. 🤷🏼‍♂️

But I’d never heard of Michael Edwards either.

If he’s given the gig. all that matters is that Jurgen’s happy.

If Jurgen’s happy, everyones happy.

True but you want the sporting director to be strong enough to overrule the coach. Our best signings haven't always been the first-choice options of Klopp. Dont need a yes man that will agree with Klopp.

Out SD has never been the one picking the players himself either mate. Edwards was just the catalyst of implementing the boss analytical system we use. Its a collaborated effort. Not least from all the daya scientists. The system has always been about a sum of its parts. Jurgen is just a part of that process.

I say if he’s happy with whomever the new man is, then sound, as the SD/ GM/ whatever we call him, is his main contact in that process. But the SD’s main job is boxing deals and contracts.

Unless you’re fearing we’re going soft and completely getting away from what has served us so well, I wouldn’t be worrying about who the name is. Provided he buys in with how we operate, and he wouldn’t be hired and the extensive search take this long if he didn’t, we’ll be sound.

The system underpins it all.
 
What another belter day out at the match yesterday. On and more so off the pitch. And shorts weather to boot for the first real time in 2023.

Not the greatest spectacle on the pitch in what was a very ‘bitty’, stop/ start match. Made so by a combination of Brentford’s mad time wasting. Even when they were behind. And the absolutely atrocious Anthony Taylor. It’s now LONG past time we kicked up a fuss to get Wythenshawe’s not so finest removed from our games. He doesn’t even hide his bias anymore and can’t get the whistle to his lips fast enough to blow against us. He was beyond a disgrace yesterday and the only way you could see L’pool dropping points was him awarding another non-existent free-kick/ penalty late.

But the Reds did what they had to, overcame the 12 man opposition, and added win number 6 from 6 from their ‘Big Nine’ stampede to the top 4. Properly organised and fighting tooth and nail for the W. Proper run-in dig fight that, like Fulham, and it was boss to again see us come through with flying colours. With Mo Salah adding to his phenomenal records along with Alisson setting his own. And the pride in two of your own, off the same streets as you, Curtis and Trent, dominating proceedings was only matched by the pride in our standing up for what we believe in off the pitch …..

As much as the Tories are trying to take everyones right to protest away from them, its still a fundamental right in this Country as I type. The right wing media can feel free to castigate us all they like the next few days. Along with the internet hordes who haven’t a single brain cell between them to ask the question just ’why?’ the people of one of this Country’s major City’s feel SO disenfranchised from West Minister, and most everywhere else given the away fan abuse week in, week out this year mocking Scousers/ poverty/ tragedies et al, as no doubt Leicester will again a week tomorrow, and why they are SO anti-establishment. As proud as I was as to our stance on the Establishment disgrace down in London when food poverty is at an all time high across the Country before KO, which went on all game with various anti-Royal/ establishment chants, the coup de grace was …..

’F the Royal Family Feed the Poor!’

That had me BEAMING with pride that once again, those horrible Scouse bleeps were the ones to stand up and make the most salient, on point comment of the whole, sorry, coronation disgrace.

Soz abar us for being politically switched on to stand up for what we believe in.

Soz abar you for being gaslit by the right wing media and not having a clue ‘why?!’

To then round off proceedings with a deafening version of the arl Shankly song, ’Oh Kenny is r King, Oh Kenny is r King, Oh Kenny is our KING!’ ended proceedings perfectly.

1 point. Over to Utd and first Newcastle.

Up the European Cup surging Reds! FTT!!!!!

Hopefully they start taking injury data into that super sophisticated mathematical modeling rocket engine scouting system that identified such hits as Naby 'Mr Glass" Keita and Thiago Neverplaycantara.

Nothing wrong with Keita's health at Leipzig.

6 days I think he missed in total there IIRC.
 
Just looking at the table made me realise I missed my favourite, and proudest, statistic EVERY season yesterday …..

Even in what’s been a pretty grim transition season by our exceptionally high standards under Jurgen, for the SIXTY-FIRST consecutive season, since we came back up to the English top flight in 1962, we’ve finished in the top 8. 😍

Absolutely phenomenal, mind blowing consistency that no other football club comes remotely close to matching. 😎

For the record, over the past 60 seasons, L’pool have finished-

1st x 14.
2nd x 13.
3rd x 8.
4th x 7.
5th x 6.
6th x 4.
7th x 4.
8th x 4.

With this season’s finish to come.

What an absolute BEHEMOTH of a football club LFC is!
 
Get in! Newcastle have crumbled first today under the pressure to keep that at 3 points.

Now over to Utd …..
 
Excellent weekend.

1/ 3 points back on the two above us struggling to cope with the resurgent Reds breathing down their necks.

All we need now is for Brighton to make it perfect tomorrow.

If we somehow end up with Liverpool and Brighton in 3rd/4th, that would be the perfect end to the season for me 😂
 
Looking forward to settling down to watch Brighton volley Everton all over this tea-time to make this the perfect weekend.

But first, if either Blackburn, Sunderland or West Brom can take Millwall out the playoffs, that would be greatly appreciated. Ta in advance.
 
Get in!

Millwall F it up and Sunderland are in!

Perfect last day.

Now, anyone but Luton the playoffs please. Preferably Sunderland. But plenty of tickets from any of them, Coventry or Middlesbrough. And ahort trips.

Now for Brighton to send the Ev a step closer to playing Millwall next season. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Well, this has been an unexpected start...

But can we start it again and stop messing around this time aye Brighton?
