Happy with "Alty" Taylor. He will hate the dippers and given a choice would probably rather us win than them.

He's fucked then. Ask any rag and they're split as to who they hate most us or red scouse. Majority of old school hate scouse as we were never much competition. A few have changed since we became top dog in town. Go to most non-city strongholds and you will hear rag fans cheer if scouse score when we play them. Great to be able to fuck both sets of know-nothing history channel sets of 'fans" over

I dunno mate, out of those two I'd probably rather see the rags win it. I just can't stand Liverpool football club, the people of Liverpool, the Beatles, any fucker connected with the place.

You probably have a higher percentage of telly watching scousers over your way so I can understand that. Cannot abide either although to be fair, I can talk to the rags that I know who still go home and away. These are usually the ones who cannot win when we play red scouse. Up to us to make both sets unhappy bunnies come 2200 Thursday evening although when utd win at newcastle they will be within a shout at catching us................

You're not wrong. I'll see a kid out in a Wigan athletic kit and the next day they're wearing a Liverpool kit. Against Wigan last year walking around the stadium most people had Scouse accents.

Anybody noticed Pep telling the media that the league is over if the Dippers win the game? Obviously worked out how the PL works and reminding the powers that be that their product will be over by the start of January if they continue to give the Dippers dodgy calls.

The PL will not give a flying fuck if red scouse turn us over and run away the league. Contrast that to the outcry last year or the 20 odd years when there was little or no competition with the rags on top. I know you already understand this Beefy - it's sickening and panders to the mong masses unfortunately. We need to win back to back titles and tick another one off the rags total. Pep is to be applauded for calling it out but make no mistake, there is only us who can see the hypocrisy

He is trying to do a Mancini.
Remembered how Roberto pulled one over Old Red Nose in 2012. He almost was ready to say that filth won it even after Aguero scored it. Let's hope it works.

Taylor may have given us a fair crack of the whip in the derby in prep for a lashing in this one.
There's a conspiracy for ya.

Absolutely. I had a feeling the league would be pushing for Liverpool this year after their resurgence last season.
Let's hope our boys can upset the apple cart.
