That's the one bit of comfort.

If anyone wants to get banned I suggest making a congrats Liverpool thread now :D

Here in solidarity with you, brother. Our clubs have carried the * hating torch for many years and many rival supporters thought we were exaggerating their egomania. Thankfully many are having their eyes opened over the last couple of years.

Roll on next season when every bastard wants to beat them! :D
 
Is there a worse way to win a league title than this? Hilarious. Behind closed doors, no fans and you're not even playing yourselves. Jesus how grim.

They tried to interview Klopp too and it didn't work and he had a really pissed off look on his face :lol:

Disgraceful behaviour. We're in the midst of a pandemic and people are dying. But apparently football is more important than people's lives.

If the FA had any integrity, Liverpool would be given a 20 point penalty.

I'm not gonna make the obvious comparison with recent events of similar nature that have been not only tolerated but encouraged.

This is what we have to tell ourselves in these dark and troubling times! It could be worse. And at least we've all had a long time to get used to it.

It's a bit shit isn't it. They'll probably have a parade when it's safe to do so but by then it'll probably in the middle of winter during the next season.
 
Surely points deduction for Liverpool incoming after inability to complete their fixtures due to a COVID-19 outbreak amongst the squad. Taking the piss by having the whole squad hanging out together.

I'm not even being bitter when I say it but I couldn't honestly think of anything worse. By the time the season is over it will be pretty much forgotten with European football running on. No parade and no one to watch them get the trophy. Even tonight they didn't even kick a ball and City bottled it again. It's just feck up after feck up.

Such an anti climax.

Indeed.

The precedent has been set with the media and political class advocating for mass gatherings for the past four weeks. Crack on, Scousers, would be my outlook on tonight. What’s the difference?

The never won the premier league meme is gone, that's worth a lot.

Granted it's been replaced by the asterisk meme, so there's 30 years to sort that one out now.

Was just about to post exactly this.

add to list: pubs closed, deadly virus around so you can't hug your mates, getting banned from redcafe. :lol:

Did anyone expect the players not to have a party after winning the title? Come on! They can share dressing-rooms and modes of transport to matches but gathering for a few celebratory drinks is too much?
 
Anyone else seeing this stream on BT ? There's these messages popping up on the video link ? :lol:

When I think of how we have won League titles and where I've been and what I've been up to when we have I just chuckle.

I have a feeling they'll try and do something to hold a parade though.

Yeah, I somewhat did. I thought the PL would have been clear on expectations with them too. They’ll feel fecking stupid if the coronavirus ramps up again. It’s also a fecking piss take to those of us actually following the rules.

Sure, they can do that, but that's all they'll get. Poor buggers.

I still remember the that night in 1993, after Pallister scored a free kick. Was in my first year at Manchester University. We watched the game outdoors at Queen of Hearts in Fallowfield, and then went with around 200 United student fans into town to meet everyone from Old Trafford: must have been 40,000 in town centre. It was mental. And was just the start of a full week of fun!
 
I couldn't imagine a worse way to win a league. This day was always going to come so its a small consulation that's its happened like this.

Cracking achievement by Liverpool they are now matching Blackburn Rovers on Premier League titles!
 
Liverpool win the league and Chelsea stay 5 points clear of us. If Carlsberg did shit nights...

Don't think so. I'm sure they're still one behind

Depends if you're counting Community Shield or not. If not then they have more trophies than us, if you count it we still have more. Most won't count it I guess ?

Oh, I agree with you. They shouldn’t be doing what they are doing whilst the rest of us live like monks but that horse bolted when the powers-that-be decides to resume this farcical excuse for football.

The waters have been well and truly muddied the last few weeks with rule-breaking behaviour going on en masse without repercussions (even encouraged in many cases) so the precedent was set for the Scousers to celebrate how they so wish whenever the title was clinched.
 
They got all the players into Anfield, everyone wearing shirts so Standard Chartered get their exposure, very quickly, innit?
