    I thought you might reply to this Belfast dude lol, i support Palace my local team, very few glorytimes but funnily enough some of the best against Liverpool.
    I went to Anfield in 89 when you beat us 9-0 i was quite drunk and being no scoreboard at Anfield then, i thought we only lost 7-0 was shocked the next day to read that we lost 9-0 lol.
    Was also at the semi final in 90 when we beat you 4-3 to score 1 was amazing but to score 4 against a Liverpool side that was all conquering is something i will never forget and also all the Liverpool fans afterwards congratulating us on the win.
    Was at Anfield in 91 when we won there for the 1st time with Geoff Thomas getting the winner and at Anfield when we beat you in the cup in 2003 i think it was

    Will always be easier supporting Liverpool than Palace lol, sometimes the few glorys would outway the always winning things
    Times may be sparce at the moment but i am sure Liverpool will be up there challenging again soon

    Before he cane here I probably had the same opinion of him as you, mainly because of his previous connections with man u.

    Though surprisingly I've grown to like him quite quickly, mainly because of his dealings with the local press - very honest and at times quite amusing.

    How your club's finances at the moment? There's one or two of your players we may be willing to take off your hands for the right price!

    Being a Spurs fan I have had my ups and downs, home and away season ticket holder although most of the away tickets are sold on for face value or passed on for nowt for those away games I cant make but keener fans who wanna go.

    Tottenham have a large support up north and from Ireland/Norway who have the longest trips which cost a fortune and most of their spare time. My Hat goes off to them Rarely do these fans leave 5-10 mintues early either which really gets up my nose for those who almost live round the corner and no pressing need to get home

    Used to follow my local non league side home and away had some great trips one game up north our small group was the only away fans as the others had transport troubles and we had gone up a few days with our girlfriends a few days before for a long weekend.

    I feel for the fans who never/rarely get to see their team in the flesh although plenty of times i wish I could of switched off the view
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops

    super saints

    love is blind, as any true football supporters know. good bad or indifferent they are the only one for you. Fishing on the Hampshire Avon, we gathered together to talk football and lined up Saints, West Brom, West Ham, chelsea, and the Chelsea fan apologized, saying I've supported them all my life HONEST!!
    I met a Korean recently who told me "I support Man U and Liverpool" HOW?? anyone who knows their footie knows that's an impossibility, or is that called hedging your bets..

    I totally agree,you can only truly support 1 team,the team thats in your blood but you can admire others.
    I have always like teams what play football arsenal,west ham few years ago,spurs.
    Unfortunately apart from arsenal those teams don't win much but play attractive football,(oh yes keegans newcastle days were good to watch too)

    I support any british team except liverpool can't help it the rivalry is too great

    There are few liverpool fans who will wish united well

    I do not agree with the knock out therory being easier at all,If you look back at one of the years liverpool won it they played some very average teams, to get to the final they played crusaders,trabzonspor,saint ettiene,zurich,and borussia monchengladbach in final

    Thats a total of 5 teams!
    The best team in a season has to be man utd 1999,cleague,premiership and fa cup the 3 big ones never achieved before or since in england.

    This should create a debate!!!
