  1. I have an unhealthy dislike of Christie. He's an absolute c**k, of the highest order. Had a few occasions where our paths have crossed, and can't think of one occasion where I thought he was anything less than a c**k. From trying to pinch a mate's taxi with the immortal "do you know who I am?" line (to which my mate replied, "Yes... and if you were that rich and famous you wouldn't be with such a f***ing minger on your arm"), to blanking a mate who was being introduced to him by a lad who also played for Derby (and was twice the player Christie was), he's a grade A bellend. I did chuckle when the same lad mentioned above accidentally broke his leg in training, however. Edit: I have, however, remember a footballer who is even more of a c**k than Christie. Hardly anyone will have heard of him as he's a lower league nobody, but Adam f***ing Murray!!
  2. I'd agree with that... Skrtel's been our player of the year by an absolute mile... as Lucas was last year when Gerrard won it.
  3. I agree... good shout!! *EDIT - Damn iPhone auto-correct. What I meant to put was "WTF??? Are you for real?? Please turn off your PC, unplug it all, take it back to PC World, and never post such a suggestion ever again!"
  4. Nah... we only need the one as Insua's OK as back up.
  5. Graham Smith from SOS posted this elsewhere: Followed by: Worth a watch!
  6. And sure enough a video of the whole thing is available: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBYyKegNWBk
  7. All scumbags lad... every one of them! In fact, I take that back. MOST of them are scumbags, but EVERY one of them is ginger!! Never seen one person surrounded by as many gingers as you lad... you must smell of suncream of something!
  8. That was a belter in The Solly after. I think you should change you sig mate!! Though I'm still a bit disturbed about the "Masch Dance"!! I'm clicking on every YouTube link I see with trepidation... boss day/night though!!
  9. Average, average, average.
  10. Agger will be on this list in 2 years
  11. I think in many ways he was a shrewd singing at the time - cheap, versatile, and experienced. My biggest issue is that it was at the expense of Stephen Wright who I really rated, and whilst he's seemingly not reached the standards I expected him to, I still wonder if things would have been different without injury and how things would have panned out if he stayed at Liverpool.
  12. I notice one sexy b*****d in there... dunno about the thumbs up bit though!

  14. I said something similar yesterday when handing out flyers. There were a few people who at first were resistant to taking one, but I just politely asked them to take 2 minutes to read through it, take in the information about the current situation with the owners, and if they want more information go on the website. I'd say 80%+ of the maybes/no's then took a flyer, and seemed willing to give it a read as a minimum, which is all you can ask for. It certainly felt like the tide is turning, and more people are starting to at least realise the owners are a problem, even if they've perhaps not got onto how much of a problem they are. In my eyes it seems like the progress continues...
  15. Gary Cahill is boss.
  16. Come on Jonesy...
  17. During the celebrations for Babel's goal against the Mancs last season Black Matty got an elbow to his face and it popped his nose. Blood EVERYWHERE. It was still on the seats about 4/5 home games after! And after the Arsenal Champions League game about 12 of us were all in The Albert (on the top bit to the right as you go in) and it was bouncing. The "STOP... Babel-time" was getting a good airing, amongst others songs, all of which seemed to involve bouncing around and ale generally going everywhere. One of the lads went for a piss... leaving this bouncing carnage as he did so. Then one of the lads got a phone call off his missus to say that there were a couple of rats who had broken in and were downstairs in the house, so we all pile out into 2 waiting taxis (I was in the second taxi and there was a legitimate shout of "follow that cab"). After a few minutes the front taxi pulled over and they told us she's called a neighbour who'd come round and the burglars had scarpered. So we turned around and went straight back to The Albert. We walked in to see Murt stood there with his bevy, on his own, looking confused as f*** as to where we'd all gone. He says he walked out of the bog, went to where we were, picked up his pint and was thinking "what the f*** has happened?" His confused face was a picture, and we were all in bits when we saw him as we'd not realised we'd left him behind! Blackburn away. Fernhurst car park. The usual footballs flying around. One lad got the ball and created a bit of space so he could try and boot it as hard as he could in the air. He took a fair few seconds preparing himself, threw the ball in the air ready to volley it as hard as he could. Just as the ball was coming down and he was about to smash it, Kev stuck out his hand and punched the ball out of the way. The lad took a huge swipe at fresh air and ended up on his a***. Funny as f***.
  18. I dipped out the escort with Black Matty, and we ended up getting clocked and followed all the way to New Street. They started closing up on us near the shops, so when we went round the corner we legged it into the shopping centre... only to find a dead end and every shop was closed! We were s***ting it thinking we were gonna get smashed, but when we came out they'd gone. They were just scaring us rather than wanting to batter us. Remember hearing about that lad though... there was a special 'emoticon' (?) created by one of the Urchins too I think that they posted all over the 'Zulu' boards haha
  19. ??????????????? Eh?? Are you sure? I have no recollection of this! (I remember the bog incident though)

  24. Ask not what your club can do for you… Ask what you can do for your club! 12 Noon. Sunday 25th October 2009. LFC Supporters Club. Lower Breck Road, Anfield. BE THERE. Your club needs YOU!! Undecided? Then read on: The Myth: "Sunday is a must win game, so we need to support the team and not be worrying about the owners. The team needs our backing" The Truth: Why does a march have to take away from the support inside the ground? The march will be done and dusted before kick-off, giving ample opportunity for you to get yourself in the ground and make yourselves heard. During the 90 minutes there will be total and unequivocal support and backing for the team. What happens outside of those 90 minutes doesn’t have any detrimental impact on the atmosphere during the game. In fact, it’s not a huge leap of faith to think that it should actually improve the atmosphere, as having experienced the camaraderie, solidarity and unity that the march should bring I know that I for one will be feeling galvanized and even more up for the match than normal. The Myth: It’s a “pro-Rafa” march. The Truth: It’s not a “pro-Rafa” march. That is a fact. The sole aim of this march is to remind the world, and our owners, that these “custodians” are not welcome here. In the game that probably has more media coverage and focus than any other League game at Anfield – especially given our current run of results – we have an opportunity to tell the world how Gillett and Hicks are running out beloved club into the ground. The Myth: The protest is against Yanks. The Truth: The protest is against THESE Yanks. There have been comments about people feeling concerned that the actions could be interpreted as being seen as an attack on America and Americans. The fact is that the nationality of Gillett and Hicks is irrelevant in the reasoning behind our absolute desire to see them out of our club. What is also true is that their nationality is also unequivocally linked to the public and media perception of the pair. When handling this accusation a few weeks ago I did a very quick and very basic bit of research to prove this point. I put ‘George Gillett’ into Google and had a look at the first few media reports, and this is what I found: - Telegraph – 2nd Paragraph – “The American claimed” - Guardian – Sub Headline – “American questions Benitez scouting and recruitment” - Times – 4th paragraph – “the American invited…” As such, given that it would appear that “American” or “Yanks” would seemingly be the top answer in Family Fortunes when 100 people were asked “a word you associate with Gillett and Hicks” (though my own words would be VERY different!) then there’s no reason not to integrate this into any campaign to provide tag lines, song lyrics, flag material or whatever else. To further differentiate this, recent flags have been deliberately worded to ensure there is no misunderstanding, hence the recent “YANK LIAR$ OUT!” effort, rather than a simple “YANKS OUT”. The Myth: It won’t make a difference, so what is the point? The Truth: As mentioned above this fixture will be getting lots of media coverage, giving us the opportunity to make ourselves heard. In addition to this, Gillett’s reaction when confronted by a fan asking him questions he didn’t want to hear left Gillett very much on the defensive and, not for the first time, somewhat rattled. Gillett and Hicks thought they were going to have an easy cash cow for them to fatten up and then cull for their own personal gains. A combination of the credit crunch, fall outs amongst themselves, ever changing markets, a lack of understanding in how to run a football club, and many other factors has meant that they are in a difficult situation. By continuing to show the world what they have been doing to our club – the debt, the lies, and the lack of leadership – and making sure they know they are not welcome here, then it may just tip the balance and mean we can oust them. And I for one know that I would much rather take direct action and do everything I can to get rid of the pair, and it not work, than stand on the sidelines and do nothing whilst our club’s very existence is put at risk. If you think that sounds overdramatic, then I would like to highlight the following excerpt from the audit of LFC’s accounts: These conditions, along with other matters explained in note 1 to the financial statements, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if the Group and parent company were unable to continue as a going concern." I shall repeat part of that again: “… which may cast significant doubt on the Group’s and parent company’s ability to continue as a going concern.” So amongst all the debate and discussions about our summer spending, it is worth considering that the vast majority of the Alonso fee was paid up front, and was used to reduce the debt – which was a fundamental requirement of the recent refinancing agreement. In the meantime we were able to ‘splash out’ on Glen Johnson (with Portsmouth owing Liverpool a significant amount on the back of the Crouch deal, meaning a reduced initial outlay) and Alberto Aquilani (for whom Roma’s own official site and the stock exchange confirmed that the initial outlay was 5m Euros. Without being able to reduce that debt immediately with the sale of Alonso (as well as the juggling detailed above) I dread to think what could have happened, or who could have been sold over the summer. So… Ask not what your club can do for you… Ask what you can do for your club! 12 Noon. Sunday 25th October 2009. LFC Supporters Club. Lower Breck Road, Anfield. BE THERE. Your club needs YOU!!
