QUOTE(Dazzla @ Jun 23 2006, 22:59) I was expecting a stabbing These two comments are somehow related I think. For those who may not have experienced the pleasures of Stamford Bridge in the seventies and eighties it was horrendous. The smugness of the idiots following them now is far more bearable than stewards throwing concrete at us or the gut-churning danger of Fulham Broadway after the Cup game in 1982.

Are these the same whoppers who voted Lumplard second-best player in the world?

Did he also mention that the foundations have damaged a sewer and there's untreated sewage flowing into it and they need to dig half of it up? It will be just like the old Wembley! And did he mention that the FA have booked Cardiff for the Cup Final in 2007? And that the main contractor is on the verge of going bust? And that the Premier League want to drop "FA" from their name because of negative connotations?

Ah well, now the Ingerlund boneheads have stopped shouting "freak" or whatever and taken Crouchy to their hearts they will have something else to abuse him with instead. Perhaps the media are concerned that he's going to confound them by having a good tournament so they decided now's the time to bring out some old photos. I frankly don't care about this, and if he has asked her to leave for a while it shows he has focus on the job he's there to do. Never forget people how low the press in this country will go. Remember why that rag is boycotted on Merseyside.

Has Ferdinand gone home as well?

Fat Frank will trot about with his little T-Rex arms and keep doing his hard look as his shots balloon into the stands. There's more chance of me getting booked than him. Ingerlund will win and assorted hacks will give their mate MOM and rework their opinion on the best English player to being no better than Carlton Palmer. Then they can continue with no dirty Scousers in the team and when they get knocked out blame Gerrard for getting a booking that meant he had to be rested.

Who, me?

Thanks but I don't want your sympathy. Is it obligatory? I don't feel part of England, never have. I was born in Liverpool which in my opinion is in England but not of it. If people want to support another team, England, that's up to them. And what I find small time is the fans and their attitudes, crappy songs and lack of genuine football knowledge.

The point is that loads don't do both. They travel to Germany with their Port Vale or Grimsby flags but don't go week in week out. They don't even go the match in Germany! In my opinion it's all a bit small time. And after watching that garbage today I'm glad I don't care about the national side or any form of nationalism. I don't know what feeling English is but I don't feel it. I can't wait for them to get knocked out so we can watch the football without the hysteria. Because non-football types hear the hype and follow like sheep. They don't understand the game or get the emotion. They get legless then start arguments about nothing. I couldn't be bothered trying to explain the finer points to people like that. I watched it a home as well, I can't bear being around Ingerlund wallahs. There was one puking in the street as I brought my lad back from swimming at 8.15 tonight.

Maybe because Scousers just want to watch football, any football? I bet there were no "Ingerlund till I die" or "no surrender" songs going on.

I don't go in for all this rose-tinted polite view. I despise Keane because he made that shower successful. He got away with stuff like haranguing referees and the Haarland assault. He was a loudmouthed thug and a bully. His behaviour in Japan was obscene. He could play, yes, but I'm glad to see the back of him because he didn't play for us and I'm happy they are struggling to fill the void. He wasn't as good as Souness and he never won the European Cup. Ha ha. The Mancs wouldn't have shed any tears when Souness left or Kenny hung up his boots. Good riddance.

I can't believe he takes two unfit strikers but has no experienced "like for like" back up. It will be a strange series of events that sees Jenas get a game so why not take Defoe instead of him?

Now that's just unacceptable behaviour.

A Scottish caller to 606 said that this is the first of a seven-game plan but the reality is there is no strategy. From the top of the FA through the Wembley fiasco and Cup Final ticket allocations it is riddled with incompetence. Another 606 caller alluded to Liverpool beating Luton but this was with a tactically brilliant Manager who turned Djimi Traore into a European champion. This Manager lacks the bottle to ignore celebrity and has taken Owen, Ashley Cole and Rooney all of whom are unfit. He also fails to drop Lampard who has been missing since Xmas so inhibiting Gerrard. Ferdinand will make an expensive mistake, FACT. This clown will waste the best crop of English players in a generation and the buffoons at the FA are culpable. Eirksson is Gerard Houllier reincarnate. He doesn?t have a plan ?A? judging by his stumbling around with the squad selection and his baffling substitutions, so heaven knows where plan ?B? will come from. If Eriksson hadn?t prepared the team to play in heat in June at 3pm that is negligent. The team failed in Japan because they were ill-prepared and there was no intelligent ball retention to alleviate the effects of the temperature. Viva Espana.

When you justify your idiotic views by quoting that maggot Mellor you really aren't a full shilling are you? Beaut.

Kevin Keegan was a Liverpool player two days after the game was played. Shanks famously said that we'd have won if he'd been playing that day. Because we didn't sign him before transfer deadline day he had to wait until the season was finished to complete his move. We agreed it with Scunny that he stayed there until the end of the season but he was at Wembley as part of the official Liverpool party. I went to the match, my first Cup Final. It was boiling and both teams had endured long seasons-Arsenal had won the League at Spurs on the Monday night.

What a truly dreadful game. Two alehouse teams and not one player on the pitch of Premiership standard. Glad we never had that referee against West Ham as well. He was woeful.

The funniest thing about it is that I have a mate called Andy Porter who is a Burnley fan. Not the same Andy Porter, I hasten to add. Anyway, as you do, I met up with Andy when I went in the Cup. And he took me in that pub, the Foresters. And we walked to the ground past where Mr. Suicide Squad said no away fans could get past. Funny that. What a bunch of sad losers.

I don't want to carp on, but that's not a perch.

Won the Fairs Cup in 1970. It's so long ago Newcastle were the previous winners.

Birmingham in an FA Cup replay at Anfield about 1996.

I've always been right behind Harry but I just think that might have been his last appearance for us.

I was there. They both went for the ball but Case left his foot in and Souey threatened him. I remember thinking at the time we should buy Souness on the spot: if you could pick a fight with Jimmy you had the character we needed.

Let's have it right: Fat Head=Joe Royle Big Fat Head=Steve Bruce Mr. Potato Head=Joe Cole. Attention to detail if you please.

Average. Like Litmanen he was much loved by non-match goers but he used to save himself every couple of months after mind-numbing mediocrity with a great goal. If he played for Spurs or the Munsters you'd take the pish.
