Gav makes a point far more graciously than I have about what it means. I don't give a shit about being magnanimous in victory, frankly.
I'll be magnanimous when the likes of man City and Chelsea do the same and start to compete on a level playing field and not just cheating and financially doping their way to winning things.
I'll be magnanimous when all 4 sides of Old Trafford stop singing sick songs about Hillsborough and Heysel on a weekly basis at just about every game they play.
I'll be magnanimous when Chelsea fans stop booing and singing songs during minute silences every year and become a proper football club instead of the pathetic small time loser they are every day of their lives.
In the mean time, fuck them all.
If we win it, they can all shove it right up there fucking arses - deep, hard and dry. And I'l take enormous in pride in reminding them of how we dry bummed them all over the shop again, and again, and again. Every day.
I will never tire of it. Not ever! And every time I ram it down their throats, for the millionth time that week, I will be reliving one of the sweetest moments of life all over again, and it will be amazing.
If we LOSE I'll be magnanimous and gracious, but if we win? FUCK. THAT.
they can all get fucked.
Anyway - Tom also makes a great point - we've not had it too bad at all! In what is up there with the leanest 15 years in our history, we've still won 2 Fa Cups, been to 2 more finals, won 1 European Cup and been to another final, won 3 league Cups and another final, and played in Europe in all but 1 of those years!
Come on now, there are clubs who'd kill to be as shit as we're supposed to have been...
Finally, on this:
Mr Gary C wrote:
They've had two advantages over the other contenders this year. Firstly, not having European football has helped them no end. Secondly, they weren't considered serious contenders by the top clubs and they've come up on the blind side...and now the momentum is with them.
Sorry, but this is just a nonsense I'm afraid. It's nothing but a way for Chelsea fans etc to slightly discredit our title win before we've even won it.
listen, every single year there are at least 15 teams who also don't play European football. Not once has one of them EVER gone on to win the league. if it was so fucking easy, loads of teams would have done it.
Besides, Arsenal haven't been playing any European games for ages now... how's that working out for them?
It's a total red herring.
Finally, this: "Liverpool fans are the easiest fans to wind up EVER. Fact" thing.
Don't confuse being passionate and absolutely loving talking and debating about football as being "wound up" or "biting". It ain't the same thing!
