Scouse scum. Hmmm a little too far me thinks. That's hardly the opinion shared by others. This chap from Sunderland seemed to have a fine day out in Liverpool despite watching his team lose 6-2 at Goodison.
It was a cracking game and it could have been 6-2 the other way but for some inspired wing play from Deulofeu and clinical finishing by Kone. What did strike a chord was the chanting of Howard Kendall's name on the 4th minute by both Sunderland and Everton fans. Kendall hails from the North East and it was great to see two sets of fans come together and celebrate the memory of a true footballing gent.
The only time I've ever felt intimidated/threatened at a football match was watching Everton at Stamford bridge in 1996, I was 16. Getting yelled at and threatened by skinheads inside the ground wasn't much fun, neither was walking around the building site of a stadium. Still I got to watch Zola, Vialli and Gullit whom I grew up idolising watching Serie A. It was a decent game finishing 2-2
So Clive, before you start badmouthing and making ridiculous sweeping statements about fans from other parts of the UK, you should take a long hard look at your own. I never had any issues at Highbury, White Hart Lane, Upton Park or Selhurst Park whilst watching football in London in the 90s. I thought the bigoted attitudes of your supposedly humorous blog posts were tongue and cheek but I guess not. Remember you are Chelsea and you are vile.
