AFC LIVERPOOL

[Guest gordy]

Did anyone listen to Saint and Greavesy (Snods) on City yesterday? Apparently a new club is being formed called AFC LIVERPOOL and they hope to play their home games at Prescot Cables ground. They are hoping to get support from fans who cant get to see games at Anfield. Good or bad idea? Have your say.I think its good and will give them a look when they start off

I thought it was a stupid idea when the mancs did it, I think its stupid for us to do it too.

[Sion]

Defeatist approach, being done for the wrong reasons.

Dont think its for the same reasons the Manc scum done it

[Guest Raisbeck]

Dont see the point?

 

Making up for not seeing Liverpool by going seeing a team that isnt Liverpool? Might as well go and watch a proper local side like Tranmere if you are really desperate to stay local.

 

AFC Liverpool would have nothing to do with the current club apart from the possibility of a red kit.

You either support Liverpool or you don't, all this we will set up another team cos we ain't happy is wrong in so many ways.

[MFletcher]

Attention seeking nonsense.

I watch the Resys cos i cant get tickets for Anfield. Going to watch this team wouldnt be making a statement like im anti LFC. Its not anything like the Mancs done with FC United

its not Liverpool.

[Guest gordy]

its not Liverpool.

I know its not Liverpool but how can it be wrong to go and see what they are like?Its not making any anti Liverpool statements like wearing a hat with I Hate LFC which some ars*holes might suggest

No-one's saying it's wrong. You can go watch a ladies basketball team if you like too. Nothing to do with Liverpool FC though. Not sure why it's even in this forum

do marine or tranmere, or everton have anything to do with LFC?

[fyds]

Not interested - it is as said, a defeatist approach - Hicks and Gillett are transitory - LFC are not. I don't abandon people or things the moment it gets a bit tricky.

Hopefully some of the whoppers that don't go to games (Yet think they are world experts on football) will watch them and get a bit of an idea of what football actually is.

Don't see the problem at all. They don't seem to be doing it in reaction to what's happening at the moment. And they've got Mad Erik on board so they're doing something right!

[Dee]

go and watch LFC ladies then! they are hoping for the largest turn out next week or summat

[Gunga Din]

the whole thing is a nonsense idea. If people want to watch non league football if they cant get to Anfield, then there are plenty of non league teams in Merseyside already, who would love another few hundred through the gates. the likes of Marine and Prescot and Southport all need as many fans as they can. I go and watch Cables whenever they are at home and we have no game. If this new FC Liverpool team sprouts up i'llmake a point of not watching them, but i'll still go and see Cables. FWIW, i hope Cables tell them to f*** off if they want to play at Valerie Park

Why dont you just go and watch Prescot or Marine then?

Agreed, but i dont think all of it is for Hicks and Gillet..

 

There are fans who are getting fed up with the way things are in football generally, with old school getting replaced with money money money and the bizarre functioning of Sky and their over zealous support and a*** licking to Manchester United... Not saying that all of those who feel this way are a part of AFC Liverpool, but there might be few....

[David Hodgson]

Can this be in any way in the interests of Liverpool FC ? No. It's a foolish waste of time.

completely agree.

 

i can't help thinking its an almighty exercise in 'look at me'.

[Guest Scot]

completely agree.

and not in a good way. There's a fine line between useful publicity and looking like cn*ts.

That then just gets back to what Mr Gunga Din said: if "fans" don't like the Sky-ism of the Premiership etc. then there's plenty of existing local teams needing support out there without faffing about putting more "AFC"s into the mix.
