The Football.....

[AndyRM]

Yet every major table i have seen has liverpool clear by 1 trophy...........best you do more research.

and dont forget other european trophies, super cups, world club cups as they all count as major honours

View attachment 576855

That's one way of looking at things, and uses some random competitions.

Here's mine.

Man Utd

League
20

League Cup
5

FA Cup
12

European Cup
3

Liverpool

League
19

League Cup
8

FA Cup
7

European Cup
6

Toe be clear, I give no f*cks about either side. If I was going to ally myself with an English club it would be Newcastle, who are useless.

what ever floats your boat

liverpool are now leading the major trophy table

Just a year ago you were claiming the current Liverpool side were the best team evah.

Clearly you've not learned the obvious lesson.

Nothing wrong with team or club - just the non-Scouser fans!
It’s like me being a ‘life-long Brazil fan.

So you can only support a team if you live there........sheeesh

is that the same for the non manc, non necastle, non chelsea etc etc, or is it just scouse fans

And last season they were, winning 4 trophies proved that.....this year with all the injuries, they have not been as good....thats football for you.

All fans of any club that don't either live there or near or have a genuine connection/reason for supporting the club.

Just my opinion of course.

You can live further afield and support a club it just makes you a bit plastic

In all seriousness if all I had to choose from was Birmingham City or supporting Liverpool. I think I would support Liverpool

what if those supporters are season ticket holders, are they still plastic???

 

[VelvetUnderpants]

Depends on what material the season tickets made from

In all seriousness I think there are many reasons why people support clubs, it can be passed down from father to son for instance. I was born and raised in Nottingham, but my father was from Aston and was never going to have a son who supported Forest, this was in the days of Brian Clough, so I was the odd one out in my school, but I had the last laugh in 82 when we won the European cup.

I now live in sunny Birmingham the city of culture not to far from the Villa ground and have a season ticket.

So no, there are many reasons why we support our respective clubs. Success clearly has a major influence, if by some miracle we become a top four club our following will go from big to huge.

"In all seriousness I think there are many reasons why people support clubs," Along this theme...I live in Northumberland, have done all my life, but am an avid Man City fan...reason being my Mum was from Stretford and was a Man U fan all her life ( I was even born on the day Man U won the European Cup in '68 and she has never forgiven me cos she had to miss it ) and even at the age of 5 (1973) I wanted to be different so 'chose' City. I think I liked their strip, to be honest, and have many pictures of me in City or Southampton strips (as I liked theirs as well). Never through the very many years of abuse from living up here as a City fan have I ever even thought of changing, once you decide, for whatever reason, thats it !
I get to the games when I can, but financially its hard, but have followed City for nearly 50 years now, does that make me a plastic?

Apart from the difference between "one season" and "evah", these four trophies... ... tell us more?

You are actually supporting the club at least, I have a Man Utd supporting friend who has season tickets for Him, his son and Father so even though he's a 'Midlander' he's at least actually 'supporting ' the club. He also went to every Home and away game the year they won the Europa league.

The only point I was "proving" is that Man Utd and Liverpool pretty much have a similar record when it comes to honours.

Although according to a random website I found, it's 74 to 61 in Manchester United's favour.
