Don’t see anything wrong with it tbh. Nothing to get upset over anyway.
"you'll never nonce alone" can and will incriminate youi’ll lead the rendition when @horsechoker is banned for grievous bodily noncing.
I'll be the falsetto.i’ll lead the rendition when @horsechoker is banned for grievous bodily noncing.
that’s how they got glitter in the end."you'll never nonce alone" can and will incriminate you
we’ve got the choir boys for that.I'll be the falsetto.
Aren't we supposed to sing because Horsy got to them?we’ve got the choir boys for that.
he’s getting on a bit, there’s no way he’ll get them all before the police arrive.Aren't we supposed to sing because Horsy got to them?
True but they did also start a book of condolence for a chicken one time.Having worked for many years in Liverpool, I think the intentions are decent and come from the right place, even if things sometimes seem overly-sentimental.
Does anyone else remember when the Grand National was cancelled in 1997 due to a bomb threat, and people were stranded in Liverpool unable to return to their cars? A significant number of ordinary people opened their homes to folk, so they wouldn't have to spend a night outside. It was a real gesture of community spirit.
I know we don't like their football team, but we should always be pleased when rival fans put that aside for things which are bigger than football.
As long as you were told to be silent or clap and the song means alot to you, by all means.When I go to funerals I'm going to start singing Crossroads by Bone Thugs whether I'm asked to or not.
That was floral tributes if I recall correctly! An example of the sentimentality, but well-intentioned.True but they did also start a book of condolence for a chicken one time.
The song might mean a lot to Liverpool fans, but it's self-indulgent to think that Newcastle fans or Atsu's family would've appreciated it.Wow. This is a very very weird thread.
This is a huge sign of respect from the Liverpool fans. The song that means the most to them and we're singing it for christian Atsu, I'm baffled by the negative comments in here.
Am I wrong in thinking you always sing it just before kick off so singing it at that time is when you'd normally sing it anyway?Wow. This is a very very weird thread.

So when your team was down and out and the supporters from Liverpool showed compassion for Ronaldo a lot of supporters on here viewed that as classy but now that you are back around the top 4 you see the gesture from your rivals as selfish. No matter if you think it’s a little self serving the bottom line is they showed respect. Maybe I’m too old to have petty and cynical thoughts like yours but I can see how people are ABUs after reading that.Make someone else's tragedy all about you. The Ronaldo one was especially sickening because the vapid press and media all predictably lapped it up.
On earth are you talking about? How well either team is doing has zero to do with it. Irrelevant.So when your team was down and out and the supporters from Liverpool showed compassion for Ronaldo a lot of supporters on here viewed that as classy but now that you are back around the top 4 you see the gesture from your rivals as selfish.

Certainly not "classy" posting during a United game.So when your team was down and out and the supporters from Liverpool showed compassion for Ronaldo a lot of supporters on here viewed that as classy but now that you are back around the top 4 you see the gesture from your rivals as selfish.

Nah. Complaining about a good gesture is pretty bad no matter how it was done. But I can see there’s no point with discussing it with people who have the mindset that it was self serving and selfish. Not a good look for them and that’s all I’m gonna say about it.On earth are you talking about? How well either team is doing has zero to do with it. Irrelevant.
And not many on here thought it was classy at the time either. If you wanted to be called classy you could have just applauded him or sang his name.
If that song inspired them to 6 UCL and 19 EL, I think it is some how special.They sing that silly song over everything. Win - YAWN, Lose - YAWN, Win a corner - YAWN, Sun Rises - YAWN, Sun Sets - YAWN, Boss asks them to do something - YAWN, Turd gets flushed - YAWN.
They don't sing it away from home before games.Am I wrong in thinking you always sing it just before kick off so singing it at that time is when you'd normally sing it anyway?
Ok cool thanksThey don't sing it away from home before games.
A song doesn’t inspire you to success like that. It is the hard work on and off the pitch. Else everyone will be a success based on songs that inspired them. I would probably be as rich as Musk if I just listen and sing Lose Yourself by Eminem every day.If that song inspired them to 6 UCL and 19 EL, I think it is some how special.
Came to say this.feck me, the song is about what it means to those fans. And singing it in tribute is a nice thing to do. Its not abusive or cringe. Its just something they do as a way tip their hat to someone who has died. Nothing wrong with it at all.
And a lot faster as wellIt's a song from a 1940s musical (Carousel) that they appropriated as their club song, after Gerry and the Pacemakers had a hit with it in the 1960s. I'm not sure why it's become such a big deal for Liverpool, but it's their "thing" now. After the Hillsborough tragedy I think it became even more significant for them.
Every time I hear it I always wonder how many of the supporters know the film version, which was sung by a woman.
