I posted this on another thread but I think this a more deserving one.

"Just found this apt description of red scouse fans:

◦A club overly-romantic about past glory.

◦Fanatical supporters who believe they’re entitled to success.

◦A succession of beleaguered managers that have failed to win the title.

◦Fandom overriding rational logic.

◦Disgruntled players who see their future elsewhere.

◦A belief that a messiah in the form of an ex-player/manager will come and save the day"
