No, not this year - but we will be in the Champion's League next year from the start. What can the scousers look forward to? The Europa Cup which means they could have to play an extra 18 or more matches, quite a bit different than recent years when they have only played in English matches:p:D

Would love to comment, but on tonight's result, I may have to go outside for a while......

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

Ya BG not very impressed at all with that inept offering last night, 2-0 up with 13 minutes to go, that was really pants:(

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

Don't know what went on there, but obviously someone's cocked up big time, probably to complacent, if they play poorly they deserve to take a hiding, simple as. :o

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

Winning cups is all well & good, but another poor showing again today, I really don't know what they're playing at. :(

No neither do I, a home banker :mad::mad::mad:

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

Isn't it just an 'end of season' syndrome? They are in the Europa Cup next season through winning the Carling Cup. They are not going to get into the Champions League.

Try telling it to the poor season ticket holders who have paid through the noses to watch them win games, but the fact is there is not a lot left to play for in the League.

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

That shouldn't matter, the Liverpool of old played for pride & passion, self respect, with the ultimate aim of representing club & Country, most of the lads were Liverpool born & bred or if not from the City at least aspired to the ethos of Shankley & Paisley, Sadly there's far to many foreign influences within the game nowadays.

The influx of mercenary money orientated players/agents have destroyed the true meaning of a "Local" team. And while it may make for interesting ? Football, the pride & passion is missing in the big (money) leagues, that's why the likes of Stanley are far more worthwhile from a purely football point of view, okay they won't give the spectacle of big international games against the likes of Barca, Juve & Bayern, but what you get at the Crown is good honest to goodness, grass roots, warts & all Footy as it should be.

It's called football Dave.. but not as we know it! :D

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

"end of season syndrome ?" ...end of season is almost two months off :)
but then again in Liverpools case there was nowt to play for at the start of the season in the league. :D

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

At their present showing in the league, I'd agree with you Mancie. (now there's a thing a Scouser agreeing with a Manky, it'll end in tears to be sure :D)

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

Well sorry Dave but that don't really wash..Dalglish has spent around £114 million in 18 months... £75 million of that was on English players (Carol, Henderson,Downing).."King Kenny" are you havin a laugh? :D

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

Well we know another song about that don't we?..maybe that famous Pool supporter Ken Dodd had it right singing about King Kenny!.
Tears for Souvenirs :D

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

That's as maybe, but look at the rest of the squad, Argentinian, Australian, Brazilian, Danish, Dutch, French, Greek, Portuguese, Slovakian, Spanish, Uruguayan, even a jockeen & a Geordie ! :eek: so I think that confirms the point I made, look back at the 70's-80's & the majority of England players came from Liverpool (the team) Hughes, Keegan, Clemence, Thompson, Neal, Kennedy, Johnson, McDermott.

Re: Liverpool.. the road to the title 2011
 

Yep.. but the 70's-80's are along time ago...mind you i reckon thats about the time scousers started wearing big hair and trackie bottoms..aey aey.. calm down :D
