Was on in the pub but had back to screen so didn't watch.

I think the red jerseyed crowd scored at some stage, few people cheered & best comment was "...who the hell is cheering for Liverpool..."

Here's hoping Liverpool do the business, might stop some of the slagging I get in college.

Sure if you're living under the pretence of being a scouser you deserve to get slagged.

That'll be the day.

As James said it's not as if I speak with a Scouse accent. It's mainly to do with the type of scenario that goes:

Friend: Who do you support?
Me: Cork City.
Friend: Riiiiiight. Who do you actually support?

You get the picture, so I don't have to go any further. It's one case though when I couldn't be prouder to be misunderstood. I'm City through and through (true and true??) and always will be.

Uh I hate that. I can't stand idiots who like down their noses at the likes of us for supporting our local football club.

Yeah the "Who do you really support?" question really pi$$es me off too.

Spot on, Colm. The idiots say what's so great about supporting your local team? I tend to reply with what's so great/natural about an Irishman pledging undying loyalty to an English team. Like them, yes, as I do Liverpool; but, don't fall head over heels in love with them.
