We All Follow the Chelsea...

[Fox From The Hudd]

1997/98 Matt Elliott scored in the first minute, with Fatty Fenton scoring late on just two minutes before Ince got a consolation for Liverpool. That was the game when City fans were banned because they were doing some rebuilding work.Marshall scored in the last minute in 1998/99.

1999/2000 Cottee scored right at the start of the first half, Gilchrist at the start of the second.

I took great pleasure at being one of the only City fans there for that game as the company I worked for had a box at Anfield! was fantastic - rates with the Cottee winner at Old Trafford for me!

There were several hundreds of us there. Where I was in the main stand there were plenty of City fans and the Liverpool fans were quite happy for us to be there, feeling that there club had acted wrongly in trying to exclude away fans. The first goal was scored very early in the game but soon afterwards I was told that I should feel free to applaud if we managed to score again. We did and I did. :icon_bigg

I'm... just... so... disillusioned, if Bob doesn't care, what hope is their for the rest of us?
We're all going to Hell in a handcart, they're must be something we can do, doesn't anybody care about there spelling any more?

Cleerly not.

The fact is that I do care - but often I don't take enough of it.

Liverpool fans do quote this 'unbeatability' of Peter Shilton but I think I am correct in saying that we only beat them once up at Anfield when he was in goal - and that was the in the 5th round of the Cup in 1969, not even a league game.

I think a lot of the Shilton Liverpool legend comes from one particular match. This was an FA Cup semifinal played at Old Trafford. The great Liverpool team of the time outclassed us with Keegan being almost unplayable. Yet it was a 0-0 draw. That afternoon it seemed to be a duel between Shilton and Keegan and Shilton won.
Sadly in the replay he was not unbeatable and we lost 2-0.

Liverpool fans in the Shankley era seemed to have a generosity of spirit towards players in other teams that ended with the tragedies of the 1980s.

It was actually 3-1 (at Villa Park) - but otherwise I couldn't disagree with a word of what you say.
