Its because idiots like you think football began in 1992 and that we should be grateful you support this club from afar and buy a shirt. Your ignorance is offensive and your knowledge lacking and your understanding of my post shows your prejudice . Long before you were probably born fans came to anfield from all over the world they didnt ask to be put on a pedestal they were just fans I had no idea were you were from and I dont care.
I could tell you how many times i have been at Anfield, or how much Scandinavian supporters club donate to not only the club but also charities in Liverpool but I am not going to try a convince a grumpy old man to stop disliking people based on where they are from. I think me any you define supporters differently.
I think more in the line of love if i would tried to define what being supporter is.
To me personally a local scouse kid, who visits Anfield for the first time with his dad. Watches the atmosphere and falls in love the club is equal to lets say a American kid. who started playing "soccer" and buys a Mo shirt and starts to watch Liverpool on tele and wants to go meet his heroes when LFC visit the states. Or a Nigerian kid who wears a replica shirt, doesnt have tele at home but watches Liverpool at the store and cheers them on.
To me they all are equal, they all love liverpool and they want the best for the club.
You know what Walton, me and couple of friends are planing to come to Andfield around March to catch a CL game. At the gates i can tell them that Walton from the internet forums says im not a real fan and im not allowed in Anfield. If that makes you happy?
Peace out.
