He has no clue about history or context and it pisses me off.

The nail in the coffin at home was showsec banning fans for standing in 109, mixed with cheap seats in the south stand. Loads of good lads stopped renewing and rest went to south. IMO south is poor for 3 standing tiers. What's left is 110 being populated by tourists. Empty seats and season ticket holders re selling to tourists.

Last two home league games werent enjoyable for me. I did'nt go yesterday.


Pep looks forward, history is all well and good but does anyone really care that much, great memories, days out etc, It has fuck all on the last 10 years, if we keep Pep. SORT OUT THE DEFENCE we can compete with the dippers, if not Klopp will be under very little threat from novices, like Lampard, Arteta, Ole Or trigger happy owners. Concentrate on the future and that is smashing the scouser's.

People still can't read.

More people attending and support isn't the same.

When we were at Villa the other week our support was far superior to theirs on the day. We had about 40k less fans inside the stadium. Attendance and support isn't the same.

He said "hopefully they can support more".
What's the obsession with filling the stadium? Even if we only got 30k the support would be fantastic. Why is he arsed about more bums on seats?

The club doesn't help itself with the attendance issues, why not just do a superb deal on these types of games? They could even give tickets away to schools etc to fill the seats!

There was huge portions of empty seats yesterday, I'm surprised it took so long for the pundits to comment on it.

Will the same paranoia be widespread in the media when Anfield is half empty in the FA Cup replay with Shrewsbury ?????????

NONE of the PL teams sell out their early round cup games. no one gives a sh*t except the f*cking media hacks looking for an angle to criticise us.

Yep and there was a lot more against us than the Wolves game.
I think they gave the attendance for that as nearly 60k when it was probably nearer 40.

I understand the next round of the cup will be played midweek due to the mid season winter break, that should start a lot of whinging, from those at are still in it

No top team fills their stadium in January at this stage of the cup. Not sure why it's expected we get more.

“Hopefully our fans can come more people than today...hopefully can support us more”

Pretty conclusive I think.

Parker should know better and not commented the fucking goon. Instead, he has now given the press what they were looking for in trying to stir up trouble.

The Manager should stop with his remonstrating at the fans in games and should shut his mouth whining about us not filling the stadium.

Instead he should 'support' the fans efforts ,who do not earn 20 million pounds a year, that follows their team when they can.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"
