<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />One of the reasons i started supporting lfc when i was young was none other than michael owen. He was a hero in my eyes. There was that unique special connection between a football hero and his fan, I idolised him. I built my whole lfc 'supporting' decision on his shoulders.. then when the time came and he went to real, i was crushed but thought -he's doing whats <span style="font-weight: bold;">best</span> for his career-
<br />
<br />I wanted him to succeed, to be the amazing footballer i knew he was, so me and the majority of the lfc community let that one slide. Then he didn't do so well, it was Newcastle time. All the while lfc fans secretly wanted him back more than anything. Which brings me to none other than..
<br />
<br />MUFC.. the one club i hate more than life itself. i remember the day i saw him in that god awful shirt and read his quotes of it being a dream of a lifetime. First thing i did was break a huge framed photo of him that i had since i was about 10 years old.. then did what any girl in my position would do - cried.
<br />
<br />not sure why i did, but boyy did i cry.. bucketfuls.. felt like my trust had been betrayed, like nothing made sense anymore! how could a true red go and play for THEM! how could he betray us like that? how could he say those things?
<br />
<br />so i spent a whole year hating him, calling him judas, singing along hateful chants - etc
<br />
<br />Thinking back now, after having time to think, and really think, what options did he have? He wanted back in liverpool!! HE SO desperately did.. and we wanted him back too.. but that idiot BENITEZ said no, and i will always have a grudge with benitez over this. i thank him for istanbul, for everything. However, his stupidest decision remains - not letting Owen back.
<br />
<br />So i put myself in his shoes, -though you may not agree with me- try doing the same: play in a small time 'career ending' league or play for one of the so called 'top' clubs in football? He literally had no other choice..
<br />
<br />We forget that he is firstly and foremostly a football player, and when you play at a certain level, you need to be challenged - by being in a top class team, to build your talent. Or else- neglect it and let it go to waste.
<br />
<br />I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision for him, and its very easy for us as fans to judge him, and hold morals and loyalty at heart. However I've come to learn the hard way, true loyalty is very rare in football. <span style="font-style: italic;">Unless</span> you have roots in the country hosting the club. Even then.. its pretty rare
<br />
<br />Someone once told me - <span style="font-weight: bold;">Loyalty is for the fans</span>, a statement thats proving to be true.
<br />
<br />I can understand why Owen did what he did, and why fans wouldn't rush to wanting him playing at liverpool again... I know he hurt us, betrayed us, all the above - but I for one.. will always, <span style="font-weight: bold;">always</span> secretly want to see my childhood football hero in a liverpool shirt again.

<br />
<br />WOW.. its been over a year since i've posted on here.. so much has gone on since then i dont even know where to start.. *overwhelmed* i kept wanting to come back on here during that year but it was either too depressing or i was too buried with work..
<br />
<br />never thought the point would come where i'd literally be 'too busy'.. i mean i was told med school sucks the life out of you but always considered it to be an over statement.. apparantly its 110% true.. its been SUCH an overwhelming year.. but anyways thankfully i've gotten through it so i can look forward to suffering with my three remaining years.. aah.
<br />
<br />ANYHOW.. where to start! new owners.. arsenal.. enrique.. SUAAREEZZZ.. sunderland :/.. king kenny (woop).. *deep breathe*
<br />
<br />looked at one of my old posts bout how scared i was bout torres leaving.. turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to us. liverpool fc is a club based on morals, loyalty and class. so we can do better than money hungry can't score to save his life judas :)
<br />
<br />need to change the blog banner as well.. any volunteers?
<br />
<br />its no secret we had a miserable season last year, but we're on the brink of reform. new owners, new manager, new players. takes time, but in kenny we trust. I can feel a good year up ahead..
<br />
<br />Apologies for dissapearing, didn't wana bore you guys with a huge mega make up for lost time post so i'll make it up with frequent posts in the future..
<br />
<br />YNWA, come on the pool!

Torres.. yes our beautiful Torres was like a punching bag.. fouled from behind, front, sideaways.. with NO protection from the bloody ref.. no, he was too busy sending babel off for being 'too in a players face'... literally.<br /><br />The benfica crowd were disgusting to say the least.. throwing firecrackers on the pitch, targetted at players, uncivilised disgusting crowd.. ofcourse the ref had tee stop his favourite team from losing so then awarded two penalties which in turn won benfica the match.. I won't even try to vent my frustration at this ref and why the decisions were poor to say the least because i'd need around 5 pages and i dont want to bore you..<br /><br />so moving swiftly along..<br /><br />on easter sunday.. [HAPPY BELATED EASTER PPPEEEOPLEE :D ] we travelled to st andrews to what was supposed to be our 'clinching 4th spot' performance.. things went smoothly at first with a classic Gerrard strike.. but Ridgewell scored for the home side not long after..<br /><br />which brings me to Benitez.. 60 minutes into the match.. such an IMPORTANT match.. 4th spot make it or break it match.. he takes off Torres! and no, he wasn't injured.. playing weakly.. or ANYTHING..<br /><br />Rafa says he was 'tired' .. pahleez.. how about we see what HE thought about it? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUj6Mue3nis<br /><br />i swear the reactions on that video say only one thing = Rafa has lost any respect his players have for him.. hes' lost the dressing room as they saaaaay..<br /><br />He's just protecting Torres for benfica.. well guess what Benitez.. we dont CARE about europa! everyone knows that! 4th spot is way more important!

Form was class today, high paced match with countless chances being made..<br /><br />Torres got the ball rolling 3 minutes into the match by scoring one of best goals of the season, an aaamaaahaazingggg curled strike into the top corner from a tight angle in the box... just.. beauty..<br /><br />Johnson then gave a left footed strike into the net @ minute 32.. Torres then missed a few very very easy chances but was forgiven by the kop just for being his awesome self.. he was NEXT level today and to prove it scored his second and last goal in the game at 60 minutes.. his 20th goal this season :D<br /><br />If we play at this pace in the games to come, 4th spot looks more and more acheivable.. we're still depending on other teams to slip up.. but wowwweee.. liverpools form today.. refreshing to say the least.. keeeep iiit uuup ladss!!<br /><br />"We have confidence now, we know we can beat anyone and we know we have to win all our games from now until the end." - Torres<br /><br />Benfica on April Fools..

Since our defeat at the hands of Wigan.. [1-0] everyone seems to be enjoying laughing at liverpools fall from grace.. but i mean we can only take it and move forward.. I've seen a lot of fans 'loyalty' start to waver, but thats just a disgrace, its not the liverpool way. Win or Lose, Shame or Glory, You'll Never Walk Alone.<br /><br />It looks like Europa League again next year, which to be honest, is absolutely terrible however may give us a chance to focus on the premier league more, and win it for once? premier league IS the title our hearts are after..<br /><br />Though, Benitez HAS to go, at this point theres no making excuses for him, just too many bad players and managing, so Benitez, thanks for 2005, but your time is up.<br /><br />Europa league on thursday then Portsmouth..

This is a first under Rafa Benitez.. which begs the question when did it all go wrong?<br /><br />We were plagued by injuries last season as well.. look at how we ended up, having united biting their nails as we came 2nd place? <br /><br />Now look at us.. 7th in the league.. Dreading one of the mediocre stages in the champions league..<br /><br />Mid Rant 'Actual' Football facts; We drew to Manchester City this weekend at 2-2, which was quite alright.. Frustrating match to watch though..<br /><br />Gerrard says 'Theres still hope' to salvage this season in a Recent interview with <em>liverpoolfc.tv</em> but is there really?<br /><br />In my opinion its all about Xabi.. As soon as he left it all came crashing down. <br /><br />Anyhow.. thats enough of a Rant.<br /><br />We need a win against Debrecen, and a loss from Fiorentina.. for any hope of getting through..<br /><br />Reds keep your head up high you never know. Take whatever comes our way and bite the bullet on this one.scouseologyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00819574053973623501noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748327455852273793.post-32860717221023129272009-11-18T16:04:00.000-08:002009-11-18T16:15:52.799-08:00France Vs.

Didn't stand up to injustice..<br /><br />Ireland played magnificently well, and to be honest deserved to win it more than anything.<br /><br />Hard luck irish land.. At least you can hold your heads up high, which is more than i can say for the other bunch of cheats you were playing against.<br /><br />Btw why in the world did the french team have X-Small football jerseys on? <br />Looked like a bunch of ballerinas..

Supporters.. Scousers.. Reds.. One family.<br /><br />Its common knowledge that LFC have the best supporters in the world. <br />Fans with pure Passion, Love, Loyalty.<br /><br />Arsenals star striker <span style="font-style:italic;">Andrey Arshavin</span> has finally realised this and issued in a statement that 'Liverpool fans are the best in the world.'<br /><br />The Arsenal striker claims that the Russian fans should learn how to support their team better by taking lessons from Kopites.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />"Our fans need to learn from the English football supporters, and in particular from Liverpool fans." <br /></span><br />Its actually ironic how many people have walked up to me and said.. aren't you gonna change teams? you're 7th in the league mate.<br /><br />WHAT is that about! football isn't about winning trophys, though many mancs won't agree. <br /><br />Football is about love for a sport, treating your club as your family. What hurts them hurts you, pains them pains you. <br /><br />So when a member of your family is going through a rough patch do you turn your back on them, walk away? <br />Or do you stick by them and help them through it?<br /><br />Even if Liverpool Fc get relegated, [would never happen] but YES if it ever did happen i would still back them 110%. As would every other true red. Its a commitment, a lifestyle. Not just a team.<br /><br />I would rather endure this slump in form than be winning everything knowing 99% of our supporters would walk away if we lost a single match. ahem mancland.<br /><br />We're perfect the way we are, win or lose, kopites for life.scouseologyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00819574053973623501noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748327455852273793.post-1706019570153145822009-11-17T01:06:00.000-08:002009-11-17T01:16:54.741-08:00Torres 'Leaving'<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://d.yimg.com/i/ng/sp/empics/20081112/21/3319267944-soccer-carling-javascript:void(0)cup-fourth-round-tottenham-hotspur-v-liverpool-white.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 375px; height: 450px;" src="http://d.yimg.com/i/ng/sp/empics/20081112/21/3319267944-soccer-carling-cup-fourth-round-tottenham-hotspur-v-liverpool-white.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Ok.. so i'm sick of this whole 'Torres will leave as Liverpool are crumbling' theory<br /><br />mate.. this isnt man united.. this is liverpool fc. We don't leave the stadium when our team is down 2-1.. we stick it through.. back them 110%.. <br /><br />Torres has more character than that. <br /><br />Yes my friend, there is some dignity and honour in football, well in LFC anyways.<br /><br />Rafa's statement couldn't have come at a better time, according to <span style="font-style:italic;">The Times</span>, Rafa Benitez has admitted that if Fernando Torres goes, he goes as well. <br /><br />It may come as a surprise that liverpool would ever even 'think' to make a move on selling Torres, but the stupid yanks have put us in more debt.. once again :D <br /><br />So, supposedly selling mr. Torres would really help them out financially.. But allow that, he's not going anywhere.<br /><br />He loves it at LFC and LFC love him back. End of.<br /><br />So for any of you who are half thinking El Nino is making an anfeild exit.. think again.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br /><br />""It won't happen. I'd quit.<br /><br />"I'm confident it will never happen. If it did, I'd resign."</span>scouseologyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00819574053973623501noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748327455852273793.post-18006334250879710672009-11-16T20:00:00.000-08:002009-11-17T01:21:55.754-08:00Barcelona Who?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00496/Javier_Mascherano_496801a.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 280px; height: 390px;" src="http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00496/Javier_Mascherano_496801a.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Speculations of Javier Mascherano moving to camp nuo (did i spell that right?) are full speed ahead.. even talk of masch's 'agent' getting in touch with barca and both clubs agreeing to a winter deal.. <br /><br />however according to spanish publication 'sport', who claim to have been in contact with both clubs, there is no such deal in place. Both clubs deny any transfer.<br /><br />Facts you should remember;<br /><br />-Javier Mascherano moved to LFC in 2007 after not doing so well at west ham<br />-He found success in liverpool with regular appearances<br />-He wears the Number 20 jersey<br />-He plays in midfield<br /><br />Will he stay?
