Haha! And Spanish Wrath, we aren't all from the last rain ;) there are some here who sticked with the team when there was Barça/Holland (lol) during the 90s and the hard days of the end of the 90s

Fergie confirmed that Shinji was subbed at HT because he twisted his knee.

It's a shame too as he was having a good game.
 
Didn't watch the match, so can't comment on it specifically, but from the sounds of it, this:



about sums it up.

I support possibly the most hated football team of all time. I know what its like to feel the heat of a thousand angry Scousers cry that the referee is biased, that Cleverley isn't the greatest midfielder of all time, that doicare isn't the next Statto.

But Barcelona. Are. Cunts.

I'd say Liverpool are slightly more hated than Manchester United. At least in the EPL.

you existed.

To be fair, I didn't watch the match tonight, but the anti-football brigade bug the fuck out of me.

I believe just 1 guy said something about antifootball, and even then he only said it because of the several posts before his claiming Barca cheated and don't deserve to win etc.
 
A reckoning is coming.

To be honest, I hear that sometimes when it comes to football. The Scots, Irish and English at times don't have much love for one another. It stems from the Catholic/Protestant problems back in the days I'm guessing. It'll be interesting to see what the mods make of it.

Probably nothing seeing as I didn't actually report it :p

It's only Neogaf. I can't be bothered that someone doesn't like the Irish.

Racism based on skin colour is another matter though.

On a fully serious note, I think Chicha deserves a start against Chelsea on Sunday. Not least because traditionally he's genuinely lethal against them.

Angry Barca fans huffing and puffing about "anti-football" only makes me love anti-football even more.

It's like some people don't understand tactics.

Yes you are right, we are the ones huffing and puffing with hate. We won and people get angry, as per usual. This time especially odd, no referee favours, Celtic defended well, we scored in the last minute and won. Nothing else.

Honestly, if Celtic won, every single Barca fan here would have screamed anti-football except footballfan and maybe Messi.

This is the point, I think. It's the way some fans (not all) feel that Barca DESERVE to win every game that frustrates a lot of people.

Big Boss, Keit, Bento, G-Unit.

Ok I'll take my ban but... could you tell me WHERE i said anything about anti football? please enlight me.

If anything I think celtic played really well defense even if I don't like it and deserved the draw, and we played MEH

But I'm calling you out for lying to cover your ass

Has anyone mentioned that Giggs was completely anonymous when he came on? The game just passed him by.

I hope to God that he doesn't start against Chelsea.

This word here is a fuckin plague on its own.

ClevGod. Nani might get a run. I would think we'd wait on Young, but I dunno.

I know United aren't very popular with neutrals and I am fine with that but I don't think they are fond of Liverpool either.

I don't know where you live, so I don't want to sound too patronising, but in the UK, outside of the legions of glory hunting gorps lining the country, United are by far the most despised football team.

It has nothing to do with people not liking Liverpool, that's a completely separate point, and not one I'm contesting.

Yeah, even as a Barça fan, I don't understand the Anti-football notion. Even if i don't like the overly defensive play of some teams (or rather coachs as Milan of the late 90s had some of the best defencive lines and that was a sight to behold), against Barça it's one of the only ways to get points-apart if you have some really good midfield/attack

I think most neutrals couldn't care less about Liverpool. No neutral likes a team that always wins. Man U are definitely the most hated team in the EPL.

Sad to see Chicharito's double is eclipsing Guardado's great game over this side of the pond. :/ Both are key players for our national team.

Giovani had a great match yesterday too. Hopefully they keep this streak into next year when Mexico has to face three competitions.
