Idiot Mates - Fans Who Haven't Got A Clue

I've been meaning to post this on here for a while, but after the gem my mate's just come out with I thought now would be the perfect time.

Anyway, I've got this mate (I won't reveal his name) who is probably one of the most passionate Liverpool fans I know, but just doesn't have any footballing knowledge whatsoever. Previous gems have included 'We should buy Robbie Savage' and 'Pennant's the best player we have after Gerrard'

Anyway, his latest, which has inspired me to write this post, is regarding Tuesdays game. This was his lineup:

                 Reina
         
       Carragher  Agger

Pennant Gerrard Alonso Riise

Bellamy  Crouch  Fowler Kuyt



Initially the lineup had Luis Garcia playing too, after a 5 minute argument & checking on the internet he finally accepted that he was injured!

Just wondered if anyone else had a mate who claims to be a fan but rivals mine for stupidity?

,

yeah all my man utd mates!!

on a serious not tho? what is he thinking and how do you not know garcia is injured? does he think he's just been dropped for the last 4mnths or so???

Well i dont know any lfc fans like that, but there is a manc who said that Barca won it in 2005 and 2006, and that they have 7 european cups, he also didnt believe liverpool won the european cup, 5 times, and had to look that up on the internet, and a Chelsea fan who claimed that in 5 years they will be the most succesful club england has ever seen!

I've just started a new job and a guy who works there is convinced the european cup final is on friday 25th. He has booked the time off work!!

^ That's the best!! Though I wish it was the 25th instead of the 23rd. I have an exam on the 25th

I've come out with some pretty stupid 1 liners whilst watching footy..

The best was "Why are they kicking off again?" After Cardiff scored their 3rd goal against Southend back in Sept/Oct this season (I was watching in the Union down ere). Just didn't know we KOd again after scoring HAHA Cos I'm always cheering, and on TV, they don't usually show it - My excuse.

The Barca game, when we got a free kick cos their goalie picked it up but cos their player kicked it back it wasn't allowed - I didn't know that rule.

Yeah - I get called a glory hunting scouse scum bag by my fellow friends.
Why? Because they support Tranmere (apparently the real fans).
Just because it's soo hard to get a ticket at the right time when I have some £££
You know what else bugs me. They say to me, "your not a Liverpool fan because you hardly ever go the game. You're not a true fan" When it's a F***ing £5 to get in at Tranmere AND YOU PAY ON THE DOOR!! And it is also 5 minutes on the bus if that!!
Tranmere never get sell out games. So they are in the comfort zone.

Does he follow football then ?? 

One bloke at work says he supports Liverpool. Now in all honesty I know he does really but 2 things have made me very curious of his loyalties.
In reference the most famous night in recent history this bloke said "Is that the one we won in Turkey?" Okaaaaaay! Which planet are you from?!  :
His other gem was telling me he had bet against Liverpool beating Barcelona at the Nou Camp... A Liverpool supporter thinking it was more important to line his pockets with money than see his team progress in the Champions League 
I didn't speak to him for a week (even though we won!)

And today it got worse but the culprit was not this guy but a C#££$£^ fan.
He said to me (get this, it's weird)
"If we (the chavs) beat you (LFC 5x Champs) then you have to wear a chav top all day or vice versa if we lose".
My answer - "I would not let you near any of my Liverpool tops, they wouldn't fit you you fat b*$t**rd, plus you're not worthy to wear one! And if one of you're tops was near me I would throw it on the floor, spit on it and stamp on it!"

Haha love it! make sure you have a wash when he touches your top!

Like I said I won't let him near it unless he wants to see how many gold stars there are on it!

Shouldnt this be in the match thread seeing has you are talking about tommorows game ffs.

A very poor attempt at humour Kelv78. But then again, coming from the guy who's only post out of 77 that was longer than 3 lines is his suggested team lineup, pretty much what I would have expected. Take a look at the topic title Kelv, then take a look at yours and others that I have slated. This actually has nothing to do with the match, rather idiot mates who haven't got a clue about football. Indeed, I'm sure if you had any mates, one of them would be in this thread right now talking about you. The fact that one of the examples of how thick my mate is relates to tonights match doesn't make this a thread about tonights match. Comprende?

Your threads, and a certain other poster's (who I won't name because we've spoken by PM, he sees the error of his ways and hasn't tried to be a cocky little tw@t) were all directly relating to tonights match. For example, one was titled, I think, come on you Reds, and the content of the opening post was along the lines of 'Can't wait for the match, hope we're gonna win, come on you Reds!'. Can you see the difference there Kelv?

Anyway, all in all, a very poor attempt, and I'm only going to give you 2 out of 10 for this one. If you would care to practise a bit harder and come back with another jibe at me, please feel free to do so. However, I very much doubt you will, just as I very much doubt we'll be seeing you around here for much longer. You're type, and by your type I mean posters with no real opinion who never post more than one line & only turn up before the big games, never seem to hang around for long. I'm pretty sure we'll see you here until we pick up number 6, then you'll be gone til next May.

And today it got worse but the culprit was not this guy but a C#££$£^ fan.

Loads of the guys in my pub do bets like this, usually Man Utd - Arsenal related. I couldn't do it, I couldn't wear one of them two or a Chavski shirt ever in my life If Utd beat Arsenal, my mate Nathan's bro Luke who's an Arsenal fan has to wear a Utd shirt for 3 games the next season, and vice versa. And they all take pictures. Funny but I just couldn't do it myself.

One of the best Welsh-English banters though, when they go "I wipe my arse with your flag" My dad/bf/bf's dad usually go back "My flag is too good for your sh*t" or "My ass is too good for your flag to touch it" .. Haha funny as.

"Is that the one we won in Turkey" - WHAT

I get called a glory hunter cos I support Liverpool. I say I also support Cardiff then people usually shut up

A mate of mine who supposedly supports United, even though he doesn't even know when they're playing and loves nothing more to gloat in my face when they beat us came out with a real gem a few years back.

We where talking about teams you would have a soft spot for in the lower divisions, he said Man City where his favourite team from division one(when they where there)!!    He didn't have a clue what we were laughing about or what the fuss was that Man City where his second favourite team when he supposedly supported Man Utd. BTW we aren't mates anymore as he drove me too far few years back when United beat us!!!

some of my friends started to support the mancs only because they think c. ronaldo is hot ( which he`s not !!!)
makes me kind of aggressive cos they`ve never really been into football and now whenever the  mancs win they ring me and go like "oooooooh my god, we`ve won! yeeeaah. did u see the game?" i don`t even think most of them know any other player in the squad except ronaldo and they just can`t understand that i HATE it when they tell me about a game that the mancs have won, cos i`ve been a LFC supporter for 15 years and they`re just into the mancs because of that stupid w*nker
and when u hear comments like "i really love Manu ( not just because of ronaldo ) but i would only buy the portugal shirt cos i prefer the colours " it makes me freak out sometimes

I'd buy a Portugal shirt cos of the World Cup.. but that's not the point here

I hate people like you've just mentioned Lea, if I like a player I won't support their team (Cameron Jerome for example, at Birmingham). I hate Brum, but when he scores I'm happy (Not to mention Cardiff get £500k for them getting promoted )

Clearly they don't love Man U or they'd know when they lost aswell, and be able to name a few other players, not that skinny minger. Don't worry, you're an LFC fan, a true fan

Well I do support Man United and it's great right now but I was a regular from the mid seventies to the late eighties but that's when the prices started to bite, when I was a regular I went to every home game and at least half of the away games but it was affordable. It's disgusting that the ordinary fan can't afford to go regular any more, I was in my teens and twenties and I could afford it easily, now I'm in my forties and I can't, isn't that supposed to be the other way 'round?

Anyway I know lots of City fans who don't have a clue, a few weeks ago my City supporting nephew went to see them play Reading, they got beat but he said they were much the better team, I read the paper the next morning and it was the complete opposite...

King cantona what are you on about if you are going to post on an lfc site at least make sense or say something interesting!!

I wouldn't of picked Riise, he's sh*te!

in the pub today in LA there were a tonne of newbie LFC fans wearing all the shirts and even though I love the strength in numbers the guys had no idea of the players or tactics or far MORE importanyly...the history of our glorious club? today will have given them a lesson, I hope.  Eddie C as always its a good topic to expose the frauds or at least give them a chance to get off their arse's and LEARN.....

Or an opinion that Riise is a very average left back and not good enough to play for a League Championship winning side. I do think the Ginger one is poo but I wouldn't really play 4 up front

Guys!!!! Bask in the Glory?! lets not down play legends! we are so lucky to have a team of heros

Legends are made in May, lets not fall into the same trap mouthy Chavs and big headed Man ure fans fall into. This is a tremendous achievement but the bigest test is yet to come.
