Biggest PL winning margin: Liverpool 2018-19 (25 points) (*)(**)
*Manchester city won league at the time, but were proven to be cheating bastards **City previously held the record at 19 points, until they were proven to be cheating slave driving bastards in 2020

Humanity was extinguished before they could clinch it. It was a price Manchester United supporters were willing to pay, and bettter value than most of their signings over the last seven years.

I bet that eejit sid waddell is seething he started this thread now!
A global pandemic, Liverpool didn't win the league, lolz! The whole world is laughing at them! Now, if you don't mind, I have to go to my granny's funeral, along with the designated other two people allowed to go. But, christ, it's hilarious!

The problem there Sid is that people, like yourself, are taking football jibes too seriously. Nobody is laughing because somebody's granny died or anything like it. Football, and football rivalry in particular, is often a puerile distraction and escap from real life.
That's all any of this is, because the reality isn't great.

That's not true. I laughed at your granny dying on another thread. And I'd do it again.

And fair play. But assuming people laughing at something that is happening in football, a popular form of escapism, and what is happening in the wider world is just silly. Football fans will poke fun of other football fans, it is a large part of why we all enjoy it. It doesn't mean those football fans are saying 'I am glad that thousands are dying because it stopped/delayed/ whatever Liverpool winning the league.' In fact, it's nearly the opposite. With no actual football, nothing to do but hear of death, illness and government failure, people need a silly distraction like the football that isn't happening.

To be fair, a lot of them do genuinely think it. The same sort of eejits who still claim Liverpool suppporters were to blame for Hillsborough. Bizarrely, a lot of them are the same people who are crying "open it up ta fook" now. There are lot of weird people who think a lot of weird things. |

Of course, but they are a minority. To most people it is just escapism and, as the kids call it, 'bantz'.

Seeing friends comments on twitter and hearing from Liverpool fans in work they want football back as soon as possible they honestly don't give a f**k if its safe to do so all they want is their league title the entitled c**nts.

From my point of view, this is very different to the disgusting chants that relate to Hillsborough/Munich etc. Those tragedies are exceptionally personal and can’t be shared. They are ingrained into the fabric of the club and any misuse is invective designed to hit at the heart of the club. The Covid 19 crisis is shared and internationally impacting. As such, I think it is just a case of football fans behaving childishly and knowing they’ll get a rise out of Liverpool fans, and they are not disappointed.
But look at this in any context. Would Liverpool fans be applauding Man united or Everton to the title, or if the shoe was on the other foot, would they be talking of asterisks? Same if Rangers were about to stop Celtic’s historic title charge. Celtic fans would be doing the mental gymnastics to claim this season didn’t count. As PM says, it’s football fans being football fans.

Klopp admits Liverpool's title win will for ever have an asterisk beside it: 'Give us an asterisk. Yes. Do it.'
