Liverpool friendly (Now with Poll)

Well it must bother you as you brought it up on the forum. Look, the day went well, you have your opinion and you are entitled to it.

 

It was an emotional day, when Darbs came out onto the pitch I was crying, just couldn’t help it. The sheer injustice of this disease of taking down this lovely man just hit me again. I thought he conducted himself with dignity and passion for the foundation. The way he supported Rimmer was truly inspirational. What mattered to me, was that as much money as possible was raised, and I think we did that. It was also a time for us as fans and I also include Liverpool fans to salute two genuinely brave men. For the fans to show Stephen he is not alone, our positive thoughts will hopefully carry him during the dark times that are ahead.

 

I saw it being discussed prior and weighed in with my thoughts, no more no less. I agree, it was a brilliant day that did what I'd hoped in bringing city fans together and bringing the feel good factor back whilst supporting one of our heroes through an unimaginably tough battle. I also really enjoyed watching liverpool close up and its quite clear to see why theyre CL champs, the passing and movement was another level.

 

How can we judge a player who has obviously been given permission to leave without knowing the reason for it . We’re all the other first team seen

 

Today I was very proud to be a City Fan. Our stadium looked great, the pitch looked like a billiard table. We sang loud and with feeling, it just feels we have turned a corner.

Our team looked good today, yes as expected we were outplayed for large parts of the match, but we didn’t give up and we kept trying, and on occasions we showed our owns skills. I was surprised by the aptitude on a number of players, so well done to all of them, they handled themselves with class and did not wilt before the Champions of Europe.

 

When did they win the Premier league?

 

Because I didn't want to attend a friendly match and sit amongst a fan base I detest? I try to avoid all friendlies if I can. I watched it at home on TV.

If the charity match was against Rochdale how many would turn up? Would those not turning up have all paid to charity.? Not many and nope.

I was thinking about making a donation anyway.

 

I don’t understand that attitude but each to their own I suppose

 

Deary me. How bitter and twisted can you get. I am glad you are "thinking about" making a donation. The only positive from your miserable post is that someone who enjoyed the game went instead and as it was a sell out the Darby Rimmer Foundation maximised their funds

 

An interesting note today Jürgen klopp spent most of the pre match warm up watching us I thought it was a bit strange

 

He does it every game, to every team they play.

 

I’m not sure where he was heading when he left the Kop area at 13:40, but Shay was on the walkway between the ticket office stairs and the stairs down to the suites (heading in the direction of the suites) at 14:30 so he definitely didn’t leave the ground at 13:40...

 

As @Interested Bystander states, he always does it.

 

It's a replica from Toffs. They've been selling them a good few years now but only ever seen 3 or 4 in and around the ground on matchday.

 

Klopp is one of the best managers in the world because he is always looking to improve.

He watched us in pre match warm to see if we use anything he can use in his coaching methods.

 

Not fussed. Hope everything is ok with him and his family etc but in all honesty I don't see his future at Bradford City and hopefully we get rid.

 

What has gone on before doesn’t matter one or two of the failures of last season have come back with the right attitude Gibson was very good in the first half yesterday and apparently at Guiseley and Riley the same in the second half yesterday if these players including McCartan display the right attitude they should be welcome with us

 

Makes you wonder how/why Riley was so bad last season when he did get a chance.

 

I think there was a lack of fitness all round last season and obviously with Riley some sort of attitude problem but he seems to be able to play either fullback positions so he could be useful if he buckles down

 

Cheers Rocket, it's far from finished yet
