They did alright last season with the exact same situation LOL
Leighbo somehow I doubt you'd have the same sentiment if this guy played for ManU or Everton or anyone else
Agree with your latter point, but that's just the one-eyed nature of being a football fan isn't it. I'm not at all defending what he did, but I don't think it's surprising that Liverpool fans are sticking up for him despite what's happened. Being a football fan is about being fiercely, blindly loyal to your team, and getting pretty fired up about that at times. Sometimes, like in this instance and when things turn nasty generally, it can be a negative thing, but most of the time it's what we love about the game.
And agree with your former point as well lol, if he hangs around long enough we can just starting building our season strategy around this kind of thing!
I understand your first comment re one-eyed football fan but I am so pleased that he does not play for us as there is no way that I would stick up for him.
I believe you, but I also don't think you'd be quite as loud in condemning him either. There's an inherent hypocrisy in being a football fan that I would rather just acknowledge than pretend didn't exist.
