Parkdrive Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Before todays game, not a single hack journo, pundit, ex player gave us an earthly. After the game the bell end on Sky sports says we dropped 2 points? Thought we didn't have a chance.

Nice to see petro gazillions don't always guarantee success. I hope Liverpool win the league, just to reinforce the fact that you don't need a sugar daddy to win the league.

Alan Medic Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 The maths now mean the title is Liverpool's to lose. I wonder will that sit easily on their shoulders.

red devil Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 It's also City's to lose, and they still hold an advantage, because if both teams win all their other remaining matches, Liverpool would have to beat City at home, a draw wouldn't be good enough...

Yes I know city have to go to Anfield, but that means Liverpool have to TAKE those points away from City.And as yesterday showed, any of these teams could drop points elsewhere.

Otta Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 So wete United last week. City don't care, they'll be coming to Anfield to win and the 3 points are by no means a given for Liverpool.Don't get me wrong, of course I want Liverpool to win it, but I don't think it's theirs to lose at this stage.

Alan Medic Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I agree it's all ifs and buts and I don't really expect any of the teams to finish with a 100% record from now on in. My point really was that it's a long time since Liverpool have been in such a position with so few games left.I've noticed the City game is the same week-end as the 25th anniversary of Hillsboro'. I don't think that's ideal for Liverpool with all the emotion that will be flying around that week. City were at OT for the 50th of Munich and won 2-1. If my memory is correct, the general opinion was that United played as if they were affected that day.

Parkdrive Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 13 years today gone but not forgotten, David "Rocky" Rocastle. "Remember who you are, what you are, and who you represent" Saw David many times in the late 80's standing on the platform at Forest Hill station dressed in his Arsenal track suit carrying his boots in a boot bag. How times have changed. Always courteous to fans and well wishers, always cheerful. Wish there were more like him today. R.I.P.
