Just want to say I thought the protest was brilliant today. To see the amount of people, who have had enough of being taken for a mug and ripped off, get up and leave was fantastic.
This is not a protest on whether we can afford to go, it is protest to support those who can't afford it.
Modern football has a ludicrous amount of money involved. But to take more from the working man is kick in the teeth. I hope today was the start of a fight back to bring the cost of the games down to an affordable level.
A final note. we are not "Customers" Mr Ayre. We are the lifeblood of Liverpool FC. Owners come and go, as do staff, players and managers. But the supporters are always here. Always. We aren't to be treated like kids wanting the next iPhone, or a family going on holiday. This is far more to us all than any of that. Calling us customers shows how out of touch you and the rest of the board are with the large working class fan base of Liverpool.

To pay there money for a ticket and walk out of a match with 13 minutes to go dosen't make sense why pay your hard money just to walk out over ticket prices just don't go in the first place and empty stadium is far more effective.

Doesn't really send a message to anyone, they're not sustaining any losses. Would make far more sense to have stayed longer after match or boycotting it altogether.

Because the price increase only comes in next season. We haven't paid the extra and walked out.
If we don't go, there are plenty of people who can afford to go in our place. The stadium would never be empty. To price people out who have been part of the club longer than anyone making the decisions is just plain wrong. People seem to forget football . Especially the nothern clubs, was once a working mans game.

Was once, isn't anymore. Footballers just to have jobs as well as play football. They don't need to anymore, it's all millionaires out there playing and sitting on the bench. The sport has moved on.
{Ed001's Note - that's ok, because people like you will just keep feeding them more so they can be like that.}

Haha people like me. You really think a handful of people walking out after handing over their money will change this. These players going to suddenly not be paid six figures a week?
If these bright sparks want to make a point, don't go, don't buy the merchandise or stay after the game and protest.
What has today achieved? It's left the players walking alone, it's giving negative press, just what we need. Are FSG out of pocket from today?
Keep this level of support up by leaving games and see how long Klopp stays. See what players we can attract.
{Ed001's Note - they will certainly have more effect than people like you running along and paying through the nose just because you are rich enough to afford it and not caring about the main portion of the fanbase who can't afford it. But its ok, just so long as you privileged few can afford it right?}

Not posted in a while, nearly 18 months, but something I have been reading recently and I wanted to ask ED001 something if he is about.
It's to do with Fowler.
I know the guy is worshiped by us, and rightly so, God was my idol as a kid. But I wanted to know why did Houllier sell him? I assume he just preferred the Heskey/ Owen partnership . but with Fowler saying he used the Echo to turn the fans against him . it would indicate more. Am I reading to much into it or was there more going on with Robbie?
Cheers for your insight as always.
{Ed001's Note - because Owen wanted Fowler out and kept throwing his toys out of the pram if Fowler was played.}
1.) 04 Jan 2016 04:45:40
we got rid of fowler for an unloyal ass. I didn't grow up watching fowler but it was great to see his class for a season when he returned. what was owens problem with fowler? and is there still a rift between them?
{Ed001's Note - there was no rift between them personally, Owen was just the most selfish person I have ever had the misfortune of meeting. Everything was about him and what was best for him. Fowler was great alongside anyone, but Owen wanted everything to be about what was best for him, hence the signing of Heskey at his insistence.}
2.) 04 Jan 2016 05:13:01
sometimes a player being verry vain and sure of themselves is the edge that separates them from the good players. shame his career went to sh*t :)
3.) 04 Jan 2016 10:15:12
Fowler was ten times the player Owen was imo .
4.) 04 Jan 2016 13:30:16
Never knew that. Cheers Ed, hope life is treating you well.
{Ed001's Note - no worries mate, glad to help. Ged was the real one to blame, he was a very peculiar manager. He was a disciplinarian in so many respects, but he would pander to certain players, it was odd and caused divisions amongst the squad.}

Hey guys, not posted for a bit. How are we all doing?
Food for thought, am I the only one worried about how much we are spending?
I would much rather see us invest a little heavier in the acadamy and give the young players a shot. If you look down the recent years, this can be show to work long term. Barca, BVB and Man United in the 90s show how useful it could be. I personally think the likes of Suso, Ibe, Smith and Rossiter can do a great job for us if given a shot.
Thoughts?

On the BBC Sport Facebook page it says the following;
Unhappy Manchester City FC midfielder Yaya Toure could be set for a move to Liverpool FC, Chelsea Football Club or PSG - Paris Saint-Germain.
Fantasy stuff, surely .

Such an incredible season. I couldn't be prouder to be a red. Some incredible football, truly incredible. I never thought we would be challenging for a title, but we have shown what having faith in a young manager can do. He is still learning and always adapting to do better.
Next season promises to be something else, those legendary european nights at Anfield!

Agree with you 100%. I get a feeling those slandering the protest don't go the games, or at least haven't had generations of hard working families go before them.
Maybe it's just the middle class who get to enjoy Anfield. Not the poor, not the OAPs on a state pension, not the working class. Liverpool is a working class city who stick together. SO proud that shown through today.
06 Feb 2016 19:36:58
And this is why we walked out. We are being asked to pay for these mistakes.
Might I add, the money they make from us will be peanuts in the big picture. But it is a great deal to us fans, it is our hard earned cash and for some we spend all we have spare on LFC. But we get milked like cows or "Customers" I believe is the correct term.
06 Feb 2016 18:04:16
How embarrassing EMS.
You should be standing side by side with those leaving. Those who can't afford to go next year. Those sick of being taken for a ride by the rich and corporate greed.
Or does singing You Never Walk Alone not mean anything?

Well said Red J
It's about doing it for Generations to come.
