I don't want to sound like an idiot and I hope I don't offend anyone so abit apprehensive about saying this...but here goes ....
It's been 26 years since that terrible day where we lost 96 Beautiful Souls...it's been 25 years since we last won the Title..it's been grating in my head the last couple of months whether there is some sort of correlation there, I just haven't had the guts to say anything until I saw this thread.
I honestly started questioning God (No not Robbie) after Stevie slipped and I'm questioning him in regards to the correlation I mentioned above.
Hope I haven't offended anyone? Sorry if I have.
That's a good point really. Strange, Maybe the ominous cloud has been over us because of how terrible that was for everyone. Instead of football just being about the event and fun perhaps it became about paying tribute or playing for those lost. Big pressure added, straight there.
Don't fret I'd say, you're allowed to mention it and wonder about things.
I was writing something myself then scanned up for a bit and noticed your post so I'll paste mine in now.
We've suffered, Liverpool fans have been used to the pinnacles of achievement. It's been a long long time.
Times changed, other fans of well less successful teams still seem to have a magnificent time supporting their less glamorous side.
My point is, I've enjoyed so many moments in those 25 years and it is what it is, I feel bad for me, the supporters and the City that Liverpool hasn't managed to cement it's dominance in that era.
We have had major successes but not as often as we have known or the main one; the league.
I'm not doing philosophy here, it's my quick look back and I do remember the devastating feelings vividly on constantly being not good enough, I haven't blanked it.
What sticks out more is all the amazing football, talented players and various managers exciting brands of football along the way.
