Hang on a second BR. I was enjoying that one-eyed piece of proaganda until the last couple of sentences...


And if, after 35 years without a trophy, after several relegations, dozens of managers and a handful of owners, you still get full houses at Anfield then, and only then, will you be as good as Manchester City's fans.


They really are the best in the world because they are still there.'


Hold the phone! Your stadium wasn't even full over Christmas when we played (and beat) you.


I've seen Main Road, COMS or Eastland half full too many times to be able to buy into the fact you have the most amazing, loyal fans.

People say Toon fans are some of the "best", and they've definitely been through it of late.


Anna I don't think anyone is trying to have a pop at you. "Liverpool fanS" doesn't = Anna. Sorry if you've taken anything I've said personally, I know how much you support the team and all that. I have my opinions, but at the end of the day, don't really take the whole thing that seriously, and I have felt sorry for Woy, maybe because I'm just soft.


Anyway, apparently he's safe FOR NOW, but there is no way he's going to be there for long, unless he performs some sort of miracle, so here's hoping the next manager can be someone everyone is pleased with. OR, they'll be just as bad, and everyone will start giving the players their fair share of the blame (and that is not to say that Woy is blameless).

Except Kenny is refusing to play ball holding out for a pre-nup signing with a "top foreign club". Or failing that, Bursaspor.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
