Nev: I’m A United Fan So Of Course I Want Liverpool To Lose

Ahead of the last meeting between Manchester United and Liverpool, Wayne Rooney claimed he hated Liverpool. The following day we got thumped 4-1 and our favourable position in the league started to look increasingly shaky and the bragging rights were lost.

So ahead of Sunday’s game, another big scouse-hater has been interviewed, but he has gone for the more diplomatic approach, talking of his respect for Liverpool, whilst still acknowledging the rivalry.

“I’m a United fan and the rivalry is well documented. United fans want United to win and Liverpool to lose, and it’s the same the other way,” said Neville. “But I’ve never said I don’t respect Liverpool. You have to respect a team that have been as successful as they have and have the history and tradition they have. There are a variety of reasons why this fixture is so important – the cities are very close yet have different cultures, both clubs have enjoyed great periods at different times in the past 40 years, and now we’re level on the number of championships won. It’s always been a really great game to play in. We never want to lose, but it’s the same for both teams. Liverpool has been the biggest game of the season for a long time, going back 30 years or more. Our rivalry with Liverpool is bigger than with Manchester City. They are the best games to play in, but also the hardest to lose.”

    As we say in Norway – travelling with hard core to Anfield must be one of top five things a United fan can do. Good luck to the crew of UnitedNorge.com on way to Manchester.

    Never one to hold back with his opinions, Neville was so flagrantly anti-Liverpool that his father, Neville Neville, interrupted one of his rants a few years ago to switch off an interviewer’s tape-recorder, apparently fearful that his son was talking himself into trouble. Neville Jr is said to have responded: “But I do hate them, Dad.”

    Quote of the week for me.

    I’m pretty sure Neville would get pleasure out of watching a scouser run through a meat grinder hahaha. If he’s not playing he’ll be pumping up beachballs to throw on the pitch hahahaha

    What do we all think about the starting RB spot for sunday? At the beginning of the season I don’t think I would have predicted this, (i admit to thinking that Gary was past it when going against the top teams, maybe useful against lower quality opposition but thats it) but he his last two games have been proving me wrong, not for the first time, and has performed very well.

    But JOS has been excellent as well. Not to mention he’s big he’s bad he’s wesley brown. I think its too soon for Rafael

    Man it would suck to be SAF and have these kinda problems all over the side.

    They knock on the door when they want something to eat,
    They find a dead rat and they think it’s a treat,
    In the Liverpool slums…

    In the Liverpool slums,

    You can’t find a job ‘coz you’re too fuckin’ thick,
    In the Liverpool slums…
