Anyone feel sorry for the scousers?

They will probably win the league twice and have no fans there to witness it, after all those decades of pain.
It’s the south wales based ones I really feel for....:-)

Very sad indeed .

As a football fan I have some sympathy for the Liverpool season ticket holders for missing out on a once in a lifetime moment, same as I had some sympathy for the Swansea fans who missed out on their insane last league game against Reading last season. It doesn't keep me awake at night but those moments are incredible and I don't take really any joy in people like me but wearing a different shirt missing out on them.

Does this make me a wonderful person? Yes.

I have a confession-I don't hate Leeds, or liverpool, or plastics etc. I don't like Chelsea though.

Same as newport, they just had a good cup run, without a soul seeing it.

Football is a non runner without fans.
Its boring me, I haven't watched any live TV games other than the cardiff v forest game.

Nor me, I’ve not seen one. One game was live the other day on free tv, boring as hell, didn’t last 5 mins....

Are the South Wales based ones ever in the ground to witness it? Nothing has changed for the vast majority of them, the game’s on the telly.

No

Lots of people in this world to feel sorry about. Liverpool fans don't get near my reserve list.

I think with any football related question like this it's a given that it's not in comparison to actual real life issues, otherwise the board would be full of threads going "we lost again but it doesn't matter because cancer exists"

Fair enough.

If it is football-related sorrow that is in question, I am much more sorry for fans of Bury and Macclesfield than Liverpool fans who have to make do with wall-to-wall Sky coverage of their success, and Covid-busting celebrations outside Anfield.

My answer remains No.
