Dont buy the sun - An idiots guide

Liverpool Football Club - General Discussion

Postby Dalglish » Tue May 20, 2008 12:31 am

It's a sad indictment on the state of Britain's media when the S*n is still knocking out around 3 million copies a day !

Was never a reader but they plumbed new depths in 1989 in the aftermath of Hillsborough.

I have never understood the appeal of the rag myself.

Every self respecting football fan ought not to buy ti really but you can't stop peoples right to choose what they want to read and believe.

As a  Liverpool fan, like so many others I choose to make a personal stance and it's to our collective credit that it has such a pitiful circulation on Merseyside even though it is printed in Knowsely but as Everton will find out shortly when they reloacte to Kirkby, Knowsley isn't in Liverpool ! :p

Never have read it and never will read it.

Stopped paying attention to the mirror since that appears to be biased towards everyone but us too.

Thought i'd post this little ditti in here .

I've just got back from Rhodes on the 6th . Whilst i was there i got threw out of me hotel for one night , for having a fight with some so called fan in an LFC top from Gillingham or somewhere reading the sh!tty rag by the poolside . It was my duty of course to confront the knobhead and put him right about reading such filth. To witch i was told to feck right off you scouse cant. Therefore it was only just and fair for me to wade in all guns blazing (without a drop of alcohol passing my lips i might add ) and try and attempt to hit this tw@t with atleast one good punch before he beat the living sh!te out of me. I did manage to hit him once or twice before i was carted off by the young lads who were waiting on .

I was taken to the hotel managers office while they got my wife and kids who were on another part of the complex were informed of my actions. The manager insisted that i leave imediately and that i go cool off somewhere. So i told my wife that i had my mobile on me and i would book into the sh!thole across the road. I spent one night in the fleapit before going to see the manager next morning and explaining as far as i could the reason for what i did . To be honest i don't think he was @rsed why ,he just wanted me to apologise and promise to be a good boy . I said sorry to the manager for the trouble and promised it wouldn't happen again . For the rest of the holiday i kept me head down and kept away from the t!t that i had a fight with. He never had a LFC top on for the rest of the holiday ,while i wore the feck out of mine . My missus was great by the way , she understood and was behind me 100%. Anyway i thought i'd let youse know and see what you think , i know it was probably over the top ,but the red mist just descended and before i knew what was happening it was to late.

I was shocked to here that the sales of this paper are going up and up in Liverpool, i hope its due to new homes being built and the owners of the homes must come from outside Liverpool or not be into to football.


I do know fans of other teams that still dont by this paper due to what the said about liverpool fans.

igor mate, i"m not a violent person myself, but i will let you know
i totally understand & agree with your actions mate!

the reason being is i found myself in a situation a bit like yours,
however this was about 6 mounths after hillsborough, & as a
survivor i was still recieving councelling about it.

anyway i was in a pub having a quiet pint with a mate, it was
early in the evening as memory serves me right, cause i was no
where near being wasted, when i was stood at the bar getting
the bevy in when this pr1ck (not wearing a footy shirt) made
a remark about hillsboruogh to his mate, i didn"t catch what
what was fully said just enough for me to totally loose it!

he was bigger than me but ididn"t give a feck i just confronted
him, before he had a chance to react i got a decent punch in
straight on the chin, before i knew anything else me mate
raced over aswell as some other lads in the pub & restled me
out of the pub before this bloke had a chance to retaliate,
i was shaking like made with rage but thankfull i was dragged
away as i think both me & me mate would have got a kicking
& that wouldn"t of been fair on me mate, as this pr1ck & his
mate were both big feckers, but me mate said afterwards
he totally understood my reaction & would have backed me up
all the way even though he wasn"t at hillsborough, he like your
wife mate was behind me 100% so i know where you are coming
from igor mate, over the top maybe - regret my actions no way.
just to let you know i was 22 at the time, if a situation like that
happened again in the future who knows how i"d react, but is
somthing that is still raw with me 19 years later, & that"s why
i will always do everything i can to support the campaign.

Well personaly I think punching people solves nothing maybe if you had said " Hey don't talk about things you don't understand this is in fact what happened" and confronted him about it you might have educated him.

But can understand how it makes you angry just other ways to sort problems out.

So many people dont fully understand what happened that day and people out side of it talk about it like it was a soap IE.. "eastenders" which is wrong but it happens.

Can any one say they haven't talked about 9/11 like that I doubt many will.

I dont no what to do really..... the new sponser of Soccer Am is The S*n. This isn't good, i like soccer AM but feel watching it is like having an affiliation to something that is proud to be associated with such a bunch of c*nts. We obviously cannot boycott it... but i think i might take a personal stance and watch something else....
