I don't sing them, and I don't repeat such remarks here. These are not the terraces. And I think they've been singing about Munich a lot longer than Wenger has been around!

Oi - less of the "manure" - which references the deaths of players.
If you want to be disrespectful join the forum of your own team and rant and rave there. But since this thread is for forum members who support all teams I would ask that insulting terms not be used.
And the "comprehensively beaten" remark - did you watch the games - lots of very iffy reffing totally changed the results. Eg. Drogba's offside goal.

And Flogger: No whining here m8! Just a request for a less derogatory tone. The Manure remarks SPECIFICALLY reference back to Munich and the death of Duncan Edwards.
And er.. what is your team?

I don't agree with any so-called fan from any team singing songs deriding Munich, Hillsborough, paedophilia or other tasteless subjects. Respect is something sadly lacking from the stands these days.

What did that respect last exist?
I used to go to Goodison & elsewhere in 70s & early 80s, admittedly on the terraces though. Plenty of tasteless stuff bouncing around then.

Goodison? One ground I've never been to, yet. One day maybe.

I'll never ever go to any future super dooper groundshare bowl in the city!

You might be taking it all a bit too seriously. I dont think anyone should be taking the piss out of Munich, Heysel, Hillsborough or any other footy related tragedy. Too many people take Shanklys infamous "more important than life or death" at face value. But there is nothing new about abusive and tasteless songs is there

I dont have any problem with a Liverpool groundshare, It works in Turin, It works in Rome, It makes a hell of a lot more sense than both teams spending £500+m on their own ground, you could have integrated public transport to a single ground, I just dont get why its so impossible for people to consider.

I can't explain why I'm so anti-groundshare, just doesn't feel right. Even from here.
Football is not meant to be solely about $s. Go on, shoot me down.

The real reason it wont fly is how would you decide on who gets what from the ground naming rights financial windfall
Liverpool would hold out for more than 50% as the more storied and world famous team, and Everton would never accept any less than 50:50
Plus where would they find a sponsor who would support both Blue and Red halfs of the city... incurring the never ending wrath of both!
