Very true sick of hearing about them aswell.
And if we do win the league i wont be expecting any praise either.
Even as a Liverpool fan, I've admitted it's a bit much but I guess it's just because something unexpected has happened in the Premier League for once. For years the media have had nothing to work on other than United dominating the league with Chelsea and City showing occasion challenges.
Chameleon,
if we don't win it then I'd want you guys to.
It was the same when we weren't challenging - always wanted Chelsea to win it over Utd or Arsenal.
Liverpool are now added to my list.
Maybe it's a function of wearing red - it makes their fans unsufferable. Crowing and lording it over everyone when they're on the up and morbid when they're not performing.
Vic's right too - neither of us will get much credit if we win it - it'll still be poor old Liverpool, the 'plucky underdogs' were so unlucky.
Sorry Jordan,
I don't mean to lump all 'pool fans in the same boat but with one or two exceptions like yourself, it has been totally over the top since you beat us a couple of weeks ago.
Pride didn't come before the fall
They all went too early. School boy error
Actually for me it was the opposite of a releif. I had convinced myself that everything was done for this season. At 2.00 pm I was calm, relaxed and a bit depressed. As 6.00 pm I was elated but also having a panic attack.
I remember Vinny's words when we won it last time "please not like this again". Welcome to the City roller coaster.

In fairness I think you could understand, to get into the CL would've been exciting enough to end the season on but to actually have the title in our hands it was just as if a dream come true. I think had anyone grown up as a Liverpool fan they would've reacted the same way especially after several seasons of being labelled a mid table club by others.
Dunno, MOTD last night completely focused on Pool fans singing ynwa before the game, we got a Palace banner about us having no soul
The bbc website is still more like a Liverpool fanzine atm.
Jordan,
I sympathise but I can't agree.
City were in the same boat 3 or 4 years ago and we didn't react the way Liverpool fans have acted over the last few weeks. We didn't crowd the streets singing, "we're gonna win the league" and all the Liverpool triumphalism we've witnessed in fans’ forums and on the TV with weeks of the season to go.
This assumption that as long as you handle City & Chelsea then you’ll obviously win your other games really has been extremely disrespectful to the other clubs and their fans that you’ve had to play recently and have yet to play.
There's really no comparison between City & Liverpool’s (clubs and fans) behaviour and I believe Liverpool have scored a major own-goal with this, "we're the neutrals choice' nonsense which has been lapped up and regurgitated by the media. Unless my circle of ‘neutral’ friends and acquaintances is desperately unrepresentative (aside from Utd fans, they support Bolton, Villa, B'ham, West Ham, Wolves, Leicester) No neutral I know wants Liverpool to win it precisely BECAUSE of the ridiculous over-egging by Liverpool fans and pro-Liverpool media in recent weeks.
The BBC will be campaigning for a national day of mourning if Liverpool don't win the League!!
Glad to finally find some like-minded football fans, no none sense from you City boys as ever!
The Liverpool love in knows no bounds and everything from Rodgers as the reincarnated Shankly to Gerrard's 'destiny' is being spouted as a reason why everyone should support the long suffering and loyal scousers. What twaddle; they should spend some time in Division 3 like our clubs!!
Really hope City win this league, just like I did at the start of the season!
