Blackburn away first game, well that's exciting

Although they do always seem to beat us near the start of the season..

I could say the same about Everton.

Aston Villa away opening day.

The Hitz is gonna come back and smash one in from 40 yards.

My 2 tops arrived today from there and they are pretty much perfect. Would only be able to tell they weren't 100% is if you inspected very closely. Highly recommended. Took about 8-9 days to arrive.

Sorry, I was hoping you wouldn't see that. The only games i'd really like to have first day would be the derby or against a promoted team.

Liverpool have got a tough start. Well at least they can concentrate on the Europa league!

I bet you looked at Liverpool's fixtures before your own. Go on, admit it.

For someone who always screams at fans who talk about liverpool, you do bring up that fact every time, you seem to be the one looking to make comments to make it out that liverpool are being picked on.

Might want to give it a rest.

Does it matter than he comments on liverpool really? Are you that insecure about your team?

Interesting start to the season still intrigued to see what Fergie does in the window

(I want promotion, but it's too much of a big push I think after finally getting out of League One)

I see all.

If I can get my rota'd saturday shift changed then I'll have a season ticket for Blackburn waiting for me - Everton will be my first game and they're one of not many regular PL teams I've never seen seen before(Chelsea, Fulham and Stoke being the others ) so I'm looking forward to it.

Wow. I've been away this weekend and shocked to read this outburst, Neph. I was only playing around, just as I knew Denster was.

For the record, I don't mind people having a joke about Liverpool; especially given how much of a joke and club we have become in the past 12 months. What I 'dislike' is snidey comments that are totally uncalled for. I recognise that there is a fine line between such differing situations, and only posters know what their real intentions are, but your well wide of the mark with your hissy fit here.

Going into this new season, I'm seeing it as a fresh start. I've learnt that I can't always compete with the high no. of United fans + Glowy who have a strong dislike for Liverpool. I'm often posting and finding that they'll only back each other up in discussions and only laugh at each other’s jokes. Some of them are here for the banter and it's all in good taste, others are strongly bitter (those I'm not going to get involved with anymore). Neither can I win when I'm told to take a more light-hearted view when the jokes on me, but set upon when I direct a jest elsewhere.

If I'm honest, I've contemplated staying away from this topic. However, there are a lot of people who enjoy there football discussion whose posts I like to read. Resigning myself to not posting my own views would be too difficult. So instead, I'm taking this fresh start approach, adopting the banter attitude of others with their take it or lump it stance.
