Theres 5000 others cued up behind me to buy a shirt, do the package day etc etc The premier league is the biggest seller in world football, the biggest teams help sell it......9 zillion chinkys in their Liverpool or Man Utd shirts don’t give a f**k about the FA cup and consequently it matters less to those type of clubs. To us it’s everything, to them it’s take it or leave it.......just the reality mate Sad I agree Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly...it don't fit the busy schedule now because he has built a side which will challenge in every competition...so is a victim of his own success.... like you say, at the start of rhs season say we are going for the league and Champions league, leave us out of everything else....instead now he has stuck 2 fingers up to the fans, the fa cup and by proxy the FA.... he should be at the game, that's his job...if he puts a weaker side out so be it...but this is a half hearted stand in my opinion to suit his and the clubs agenda.... But everyone loves the German now....lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We'll go round and round on this one mate.... I didn't support the decision by Fergie as a football fan and a UTD supporter.... i think the FA cup is worth more than that....I'm just surprised the out pouring of love for Klopp from football fans, when it is a poor decision in my book.... forget the team that plays...he should be there.... it's his job, and hes very good at it.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In a nut shell.... no dig at Wilf at all, he loves his football more than most by his posting....but it's like klopp could pull out of all competitions, shoot the queen, take a dump in the FA cup on live telly and he'd still be the messiah... I get the Liverpool fans....they've been waiting long enough and would sale their granny for the league... but any other football fan should be calling him a c**t..lol Edited January 30, 2020 by NEWKID Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Come on mate, to a club like us it matters, to fans like us it matters......but I am not under any illusion that we matter more than premier league survival to owners or sponsors We are way down the pecking order and you know it.

I thought klopp was the type to realise that I agree....the same is happening in boxing where British fighters are passing up on the opportunity to fight for a British title in pursuit of one of the many world title belts......to traditional British fight fans the British title belt is one of the most prestigious belts you can win. Its sporting snobbery that we shouldnt be tolerating. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
