Have you tried watching a Liverpool game in a pub? There's definitely something that defines a reason not to want them to win it that your clearly not experiencing . In my experience Liverpool fans seem to be the more faithful of the premier league fans I know. Won relatively little in my 30 year life time but still support them and are passionate. For me I’d love to see Liverpool win it over City Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't know tbh. But growing up in my era, Liverpool have always felt like a big club, with a big fanbase whilst man city feel like upstarts who wouldn't be there if it weren't for the Arab money. That being said, it's great to have a competitive Premier league for once, especially when it doesn't include the detestable man united... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isawjonshaw Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Can’t see past Man City winning the title. Liverpool had their chance to go well clear earlier on in the season and failed to take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Liverpool win their fans will be unbearable, I can already see it - best title win ever, against all odds, best football ever, klopp is God. Its almost as if they haven't spent an absolute fortune. 19 minutes ago, paul_fox said: Definitely this. 75m for vvd, 65m?for gk, 60ish for keita. So probably not far behind city's team cost. But the fans would be the worst thing if they won It’s a choice between oil money or yank money.... tough choice.

We could win the league we could win the champions league. WE you’re from downend mate It's annoying, my local had the Liverpool game on the other week with the sound on and big screen, our game was on the little telly in the corner with no sound on, there was me and 3 others watching City v WBA and about 20 watching Liverpool Porto, just can't understand why you would rather watch them than your local team.

Offside Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 I think Man City will finish top but I’d prefer it to be Liverpool. I have no affinity with them but at least it would be a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bar BS3 Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 I don’t really give a toss who wins it. Liverpool deserve credit for taking such a quality Man City squad all the way to the final games. I think Man City will Win it. The only thing that makes it interesting for me is that Man Utd basically have to hand it to one of either if their biggest rivals in Wednesday..!

Guest Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 2 hours ago, Pezo said: Because under 35 you may not know any Liverpool fans that remember the glory years and talk about them like they were last season. I don't really know many Man C fans and the one I do know appreciates what's happened in the background for them to get to where they are, it's not all about the money (they could have pissed it up the wall and gone galactic style) but the money has given them the infrastructure and players and stepped the whole English game forward. Then again my generation (1980s child) probably hate Man U for the success in the 90s and the amount of plastics that appeared then. It’ll change through the years - what happened to all the Chelsea fans going on coaches from Devon each week 5-10 years ago? In 5-10 years time if Man C continue to dominate we’ll be as sick of them as many were of Liverpool in 70-80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to our years in the old first division, Man City were one of the few teams that their supporters filled the entire open end. They were a club that were getting 30k plus in ( what’s now) league one, they are far from ‘upstarts’. Yes the oil money has taken them to another level, but they have always been a massive club, with local support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also mad to think that I paid about £3.50 on the day to watch Liverpool vs Chelsea on the Kop in 1991 (adult price was about £7). Its almost £50 (adult) now If you can by some miracle get one.

Sir Geoff Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 I would prefer to see Liverpool win the title but think they will slip up against Newcastle which is sandwiched between their 2 Barcelone games. I have a sneaking feeling they will get past Barca and win the Champions League which will be some comfort for failing to win the League with 94/95 points.
