    I lived there in the Early 80's arriving just after the riots - I loved the place - was back there for a weekend a few months ago and I still love it - its the only City I could ever imagine being happy living in.

    Used to go and watch Liverpool - they had a great team in those days - but I was still in the Barnsley end for the foggy cup game in the cup

    The last two Decembers me ,my wife ,son and daughter in -law have spent weekend breaks in Liverpool celebrating birthdays.Both occasions have been great with plenty of drinks and enjoying the atmosphere in Matthews Street.We always finish off Sunday afternoon in the Cavern.Top place in my opinion.

    I've not been to Liverpool for years but enjoyed the visit. I find Liverpudlians pretty down to earth to be honest, and I find it ironic that we complain about being maligned and stereotyped by the media... but have no empathy when Liverpool gets it a hundred times worse.

    Good luck to Liverpool, hope you stuff Ronaldo and co.

    Think you have mistaken Liverpool for that lot that play at Old Trafford.

    Apart from Man Utd & Everton fans I can’t think of any reason why anyone would cheer for Real over Liverpool. They’re a horrible club, funded by the state with Cristiano Ronaldo in the team & before him Pepe & Carvalho & Mourinho. They’ve managed to scrape their way to several finals whilst having the fortune of several generous decisions to say the least.

    Compare that to Liverpool who have the most likeable manager in the league, a front 3 that work tirelessly for each other & were all seen as not good enough by other top clubs & Liverpool went unchallenged when they signed them.

    They’ve got to the final with Henderson & Milner in the centre of the park, two honest grafters & two revelations at full back in young British players Alexander-Arnold & Robertson.

    And for all the whinging about big clubs spending fortunes Liverpool’s net spend is ridiculously low under Klopp. He’s improved so many players whilst playing the most entertaining football in Europe.

    I’d love it if they won the final tomorrow
