Official Liverpool FC thread Vol 5 - "Next Year Is Our Year"
Discussion
Thing is last season was a disaster, but this season could redefine "disaster" - Rafa did well and given time and money we could have remade top 4 or better now we are "playing nice footie" sorry but nice footie means winning a few.
I'm not as patient as some here, maybe because I can remember when games meant so much they were electric, days before a game with Arsenal, the points vital, the teams top two the atmosphere unreal, butterflies and hope fill me.
We got near it in Rafas penultimate season and in a few CL games but now I guess this is how 18 teams supporters feel ever year - Groundhog Day.
Paper thin squad, reliance on untried kids (Moyes and Everton esq) and more corporate bulls
t than a merchant bankers bonus forum - where are we going?
Not feeling overly confident - tell me it'll be alright (before I die)

No buffet last year, the food addition is part of the new plan to get more value from each fan and as such the ticket went up 30% and the (very good) buffet is free.
Thing is I used to get there 15mins before ko, grab a programme and a pie and get on my seat for YNWA. Now if you hit the lounge buffet at that time it's like a nuclear winter occurred / swarm of locusts flew in - nowt. So I went an hour early - packed - so now I've resigned myself to scraps as I refuse to arrive 2 hours before the game (as all the tourist fans do many have been there all day) .
I miss the next 3 home games so hopefully next time I go I'll be in a better mood and someone will leave me a piece of quiche

Trick seems to be to hang around near the doors and then you can grab off the plate the burgers and mini fish and chips etc that would never reach you otherwise.
To this day I prefer to sit outside with a bag of chips soaking up the atmosphere than the pre match corporate hospitality.
