That’s a generous offer Hightown. I wonder how many have gone to games & sat next to a fellow poster and never known it. I’m 50 next year & have known Liverpool dominate & then struggle to win the league. It may seem odd, but my affection for the sides that almost won it is definitely stronger than the actual sides that did. I’ve known 16 years of league domination & 25 years of trying to win it again. I think I took it for granted when I began supporting, such was the success of Liverpool from Shanks through to Kenny. Roy Evans used to talk about the rub of the green & in the league we never seemed to get that when it mattered, Roy through to Brendan. It’s part of the reason the cups are so important, through that barren time we kept winning silverware & had some terrific moments, those players & supporters were rewarded with the hope we sang about, that we could win the league again. Hopefully Jurgen will be the manager who can take us back to the top of the perch, & if he does, I can’t see myself taking it for granted ever again. Cheers & YNWA 🙂
