I think Liverpool messed up on the Suarez tshirt. But certainly noone will think less of them because of one stupid fan. Liverpool to my knowledge has always had a good fan base and a super reputation.


Heysel and hillsborough were two very different events which each have their own explanations. Liverpool fans I think are held in high regard.

Dagleish has to admit he played massive part in this faux pas in lfc history. he is no longer untouchable, he screwed up. lfc is without doubt not a racist institution but the Suarez denial was pathetic. all clubs have a racist element, mine too, I walked out of an away game last season at spurs after a chant about, well you can guess. it sickens me, those who deny it doesn't go on any more need to lift their sorry heads from the sand.

It's a while since I made a post on this thread but having been logged in just wanted to make a few comments.


Obviously there has been bit of a witch hunt in the media recently and it's not really a surprise. However Suarez did make a racial remark to Evra that is rightly regarded an offensive in the UK, I'd like to think the UK still leads the way in that respect between right and wrong. However what grates with Liverpool fans, or it does with me at least, is the apparent double standards not just with Patrice Evra but also John Terry.


We know Ferguson will be wincing at the draw for the FA Cup and probably regretting his belittling of peace talks that Liverpool wanted with United to try and calm down the hostility between the Clubs. It's certainly a big fixture and I am sure it will be blown out of all proportion by the mindless hackers in the media but at the end of the day it's gonna be one hell of a football match!

I believe Fergie's comment regarding Liverpool's wish for peace talks referred to them doing it through the media, nothing else. He said from the outset that this issue was not a Man U Liverpool thing. Unfortunately it will probably become that when really it shouldn't.


On another topic, when was the last time you saw police in riot gear inside a ground for a fixture? I've no idea.

I would agree with that on the basis that Kompany won the ball cleanly without even touching the opposition player, and have to agree Rooney getting in the refs face put pressure on him to produce the card. City showed that characteristic that Sky would have you believe is unique to Man Ure, "character". 11 a side I think Citeh would have won the game. Still the Liverpool V Man Ure should be tasty. What's the score with the Liverpool fan dishing out racial abuse to an Oldham player. Worrying trend if true.

Well he wasn't clattered, in fact he wasn't even touched. I'd say its more like Kompany timed his tackle really well, Nani is such a pussy the slightest touch and he'd be rolling around like he'd been shot a la Platoon.

He'd miss the game against Tottenham too. Kompany is class so I hope on a purely selfish level he misses the game against us. Also, Ledley King is out for another couple of months after tearing his hamstring in training. I think Harry needs to go out and buy central defender in this window. Blackburn's Christopher Samba would do very nicely thank you.

Alternatively we are sick to the back teeth of watching Rooney stomp over to the ref and getting in his face, petulantly espousing his innocence or demanding action be taken against an opponent. Most of us are now of the opinion he and the rest of the team have been taking their lead from Ferguson who could never be accused of being a shrinking violet.

Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.  
    • One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.
    • Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
    • Hi Jason - we had very difficult neighbours at some stage. Differently so from yours - aggressive, drinking fairly heavily etc… I tried to accommodate their many demands (and their huge dog who howled all day and used our garden as his toilet) until one day, I just started ghosting them. Cut off contact entirely, blocked their mobile phone number, ignored them when they tried to speak to me. I point blank refused to deal with them, including when they needed my signature to extend the lease to secure their new mortgage, which really panicked them. This proved highly effective and they moved soon after (after I made them sweat to sign the freehold docs they needed) I don’t know if you want to do the same if there is a personality disorder involved. But if you do, make sure all your paperwork is in order and there’s absolutely nothing you need from them.  I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s really unpleasant.
