    It's like the worse the thread gets, the better the results get and the better the results get, the worse the thread gets and that's fine with me, because the club is in the best place it's been in a long time this is just a thread.

    Haha I genuinely thought that Augeo was confusing you with Kerrygunner:)

    Its a funny thread this.


    Is/was there a poster called Kerrygunner? I mentioned a while ago that my previous account was Kerrigooney and he's had a couple of pops at me since.
    No idea what his problem is.

    Yeah I thought there was an Arsenal fan on boards by that name, I could be wrong.

    This place will soon be just fake accounts just trying to out fake each other as they drive away everyone else.

    I don't think Distilled Media across any of their media platforms care if they are bots fake accounts etc as they drive up views, hits, etc and that is good for charging advertises and making money The Journal, Boards, Daft, Done Deal, Adverts etc are all full of bots and fake accounts

    I think it's more down to relevance. Boards.ie was once a significant part of DM, not that it ever made money, Imo. I'd say it's just a pain in the hole for them now. It's like a legacy system kept alive on a shoestring, with little management time put into it.

    Last season along with the good start to this season, coupled with their own teams demise is having drastic effects on some people.

    I was just thinking this morning imagine if Spurs won the CL last year. Don't forgot it was a forgone conclusion we would win after the semis. What a different world it would be.

    I think losing to Madrid was the making of this squad it gave them a will to win to prove something to the world that they weren't a one season team.

    If they had lost to Spurs after finishing 1 point behind City I think that would have killed them.


    If you look back at the end of last season Klopp had aged and put on weight, look at him now he looks like a new man completely refreshed and looks 10 years younger than he did 6 months ago.

    looks like Potentially Pilsbury Doughboy was set up to give certain posters thanks.

    Very very sad & pathetic.

    Not buying that. If Klopp was putting on weight and looking a bit tired it's for the reason many middle aged men and women do esp if it's the end of a draining season of sport at the top level.

    Liverpool as a side would have coped fine I think, obviously it's all hypothetical but the side has lots of strong characters in it now. No collapse just a deep breath and focusing on how Liverpool won 97 points (while hopping City get a bit bored).

    The last two seasons really show the benefit of having a brilliant manager. After the disappointment of 13/14 the manager and a lot of the players completely wilted and he hadn’t got the ability to build back up. Same thing could’ve easily happened after losing to Madrid but I doubt anyone could’ve picked the players up like Klopp did and bring them back to win it 12 months later while having that league run at the same time.

    Conversely if we’d have won it in 13/14 I wouldn’t have been confident in the manager being able to convince the team or himself that they’d ‘made it’ and coast along on that title win, whereas this season under Klopp looks like it’s back to business already.

    This hitting a bit too close to the bone there Harry?

    I ****ing love Jurgen Klopp and if Liverpool never won anything with him in charge I’d be be a bit disappointed for him but still would love him 100%.

    But he won the Champions League and Liverpool are Champions of Europe!!! I am delighted for him.

    There’s this Indian women who is some sort of spiritualist and you can visit her and she hugs you and it’s supposed to be an amazing experience. I used to think that was bull**** but now when I see Klopp hugging players I am starting to think there is something to it.

    Ha! If there is one thing I do not suffer from it's middle-aged spread. I'm as lean as a butchers dog :)

    100% agree with that but the fact that he’s earned a spot on this makes me happier than it probably should....

    But I was hoping for not to see anything at all, Oh well first world problems and all that.

    There's an option when you are setting it up that nukes everything so you see nothing at all. Thats how I have it set up.

    EDIT:- In the script options you need to set SCORCHED_EARTH = true

    Big time, the CL win meant that Mane & Salah are safe from a swoop, had we lost it they would likely be thinking of leaving next summer for a big money deal. If we can win the PL this season they are even more likely to stay longer. Also feel that all the players were genuinely surprised and shocked at the size of the crowds during the open top bus parade in Liverpool after the CL win, a lot of them spoke of how amazed they were with the support out on the streets. Things like that help to spur them on to winning more trophies.

    I'm so glad we beat Spurs if for no other reason than it makes the Barca comeback matter. So often we've had these huge wins only to not finish the job and have them end up bittersweet, games like the 3-2 against City in 2014 and the comeback in Anfield vs Dortmund. This time we followed it up by actually winning the whole thing.

    Like we wouldn't still talk about Olympiacos had we lost to Milan, or Gerrard's 90th minute goal in the FA Cup if West Ham just went on to win in extra time.

    I need a thread feud. You want to feud?

    Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberry. I fart in your general direction.

    Quiet, you!

    I'll post again in another week to rile him.

    Someone say something?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,982 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    Something


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 921 ✭✭✭The Good Ole Boys


    If I post something but nobody is able to see it, is it still a post?


  • Posts: 7,946 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I wonder is some philosopher will pose a question like if they 'post something but nobody is able to see it, is it still a post' - similar to 'If a tree falls in a forest but nobody is there to hear it does it make a sound'.

    Probably not.

    We'll be coming up against Gheorghie Hagi's young lad when we face Genk. He plays the #10 role for the Belgian side.
