Lawro in Hammers Slur

He's having a laff!
One of the crucial flaws in the Anfield psyche that has contributed to their continued decline over recent years is the remarkable capacity of Pool followers to look inwards in the face of reality. While West ham fans are savouring a deserved victory over the reds, during which Liverpool managed only a single shot in anger over 90 minutes, top Pool pedant Mark Lawrenson has taken the opportunity to indulge in some good old fashioned begrudgery. Describing the triumphant Hammers as "not a good team" and destined "to end up towards the bottom of the league", Lawrenson has once again revealed the insular nature of the Anfield mob.

Looking around the pitch yesterday it was hard not to notice how West Ham had the edge in so many positions, with our centre backs totally stifling Benteke et al, while the midfield lapped up anything the impotent Liverpool side had to offer. even worse, Slaven Bilic was able to rub salt into the Reds' wounds by fielding some of our exciting young talent as the game drifted to an inevitable finish.

Liverpool will certainly play better this season, but to describe West Ham as a bottom of the table side is the sort of churlish and undignified comment that befits a sore loser. The travelling Bubbles brigade summed it up by chanting for a fourth goal at the end of a well earned win.

With that level of arrogance, it wont be 52 years until our next Anfield success!

  1. Too many Liverpool Leg-ends commenting from the sidelines. Without Suarez they are as ordinary as they have been for 20 years.

    1. Did not see Suarez in the team that won champions lg 2005 and in the Final the year after or the FA cup where the very or ordinary team beat a certain WHU. Can't remember your last time I Europe. Good win and we were shite but don't get big headed boys.

  4. Lawrenson what is he on, never mind, once again L.F.C spending loads of money, never going to win the PREM with Rodgers in charge L.O.L. He sounds just like he did on M.O.T.D never giving so called smaller teams credit when shit L.F.C gets beat.

  7. Mark Lawrenson is not a particularly good pundit, I'd go as far as to say I prefer listening to Phil Neville who could send the dead to sleep.
