    They do, been going off and on since the late 70’s. It’s real football where the results actually matter to the players at least as much as the supporters, if not more.

    I agree.
    If you're not sure what to do with the ball, just put it in the net, and we'll talk about the other options later... Bob Paisley.

    I’ll probably just support Southport, the utterly dogshite yet “real” local team where I have lived for 30 plus years.
    Yeah, I'm thinking something similar. I don't think I'll ever really be a fan of another club, but I will want to watch some footie and will inevitably develop at least a bit of a preference.

    Fuck them all, and let them sweat the likelihood of their biggest money-earners in the league breaking away to form another league.

    There was some talk on the Twatternets that a large reason why the FA took no retrospective action on Pickford for his career-ending boneheaded challenge on Virgil, was because they wanted to teach us a lesson after all that Project Big Picture stuff and scare, and our seeming to back it.

    If there's any truth to that then honestly I have no sympathy for any of them.

    They seem ready to see anyone but us win the title this season and almost want to hand it to any of the likes of City or the Scum or even the BS if they can, and if you truly believe all that VAR shennanigans we saw last weakened was the last of that type of shite we'll see from them, then you've got another thing coming..

    Fuck 'em!

    (P.S. for the record, I don't think it's going to happen at all.
    This kind of talk of a European breakaway "Super-League" of sort always comes around every other odd couple of years and scares a few folks as the big clubs give it some consideration (mostly to pull concessions from their own home leagues for better TV deals and that sort of thing)....right before quietly dying and going away again for a bit. This year though, the FA at least has real reason to sweat it after all the Project Big Picture talk as well as the impact of the pandemic, and sweat it they should.)
    Wow....Chill Winston.....lol

    I once played with the under 10's when staying at my grandparents - somewhere near Mossley Hill.. Not absolutely sure - but think it was was that South Liverpool football club...

    Didn't matter how many times they were told my name - when they wanted the ball it was always - Over here Cocherknee-lad. Well done Cocherknee-lad. and not bad for a Cocherknee-lad...

    Went to watch them once when I still lived in Liverpool, around 1970 I think. White shirts and black shorts

    I would have watched them some time between 1964 and 1966, I think.
    I was eleven in 1964. I would have caught the bus with a school friend to watch the games. Does anyone happen to know where their ground was at that time? I used to live in L13 Stoneycroft until I moved to South Wales in 1968.
    Can you imagine youngsters doing that these days? Travel miles (?) by bus at age 11 to 13?

    Holly Park in Garston, they moved to a new home in 2006.
