I would think it is at the Queen's discretion on consultation with advisors.

Makes me wanna watch The Damned United all over again.

Quote part of it

Just downloaded it myself.

On the issue of being Scouse, none of us are Scousers mind you. We may be Kopites and fans of Liverpool but that's about it. It's like saying I'm 'orang Kelate' when I don't even live there.

On yesterday's game, I actually thought we played pretty well bar the first 20 minutes or so. Spurs scored out of nothing and were aided by a slight deflection off Johnson. The penalty was a result of a shoulder to shoulder challenge just outside the box. It took Howard Webb a couple of seconds to make up his mind on that one as well. On any other day, the result could have been totally different. It wasn't that we were dominated or played piss poor. Ledley King who can't even train every day had to pick this moment to put in a standout performance. Michael Dawson was also in immaculate form. It was just one of those days where our opposition rose to the occasion.

for a fella who is perpetually injured, Ledley King seems to always perform when needed.
he's gonna be released it seems, not bad for a 'pay as you play' signing methinks.

I'll say that even if you gave Shankly the Knighthood, he might not even use it at all.

He's a socialist.

Sir Kenny?....isn't that a downgrade from King Kenny

i LOLed at that

oh dem u Webb,i never know tat u can get a penalty being foul outside of the penalty box,and its a frickin shoulder to shoulder

but i'll get over it come next game

i doubt a knighthood will add on to anything significant to what Shankly, Paisely or even Cloughie have given to the game and to the supporters...

Fulham could play Europa next season after UEFA granted England an extra Europa League place.

It is a good thing we lost yesterday.Screw the europa league.Pathetic competition.all the time i watched the performance was terrible.
Also it will lower down expectations.Everyone is saying we are gonna win the league next season.
Sorry but i dont think so.We are only responding emotionally to MU no.19.A lot of rebuilding needs to be done.
Dont believe those who tell us to sell gerrard because spearing and lucas are the best pair.
i dont think maxi should stay.he is on 80k a week and the hypocrisy among liverpool fans is disappointing me.
Cole gets whacked for earning 90k but they back up maxi despite his poor plays.
I see the point when ppl call liverpool delusional.
Its really depressing being a liverpool fan.
The only thing i feel good about is kenny dalglish.

We'll still need Gerrard to lead us .. Maxi can stay since 90k per month considering he's under free transfer is still acceptable .. Well Joe Cole can leave because its would be bad for us if we need to give him time to be on form .. what if he doesnt perform well enough under a short period .. Poulsen & Jovanovic must leave ... Bring back Aquilani .. hopes D.Agger can be fit for the next season ..

We are known for our loyalty. The fact that we chose to adopt YNWA as our anthem proves that. It's why I always advocate learning about our past because it is what defines us. I know some people who turn the TV off when we are losing. To me, it's the same as leaving the stadium. F*ck that. You stay with the team till the end. When we were 2-0 down against Spurs, the fans were still singing. When we were 3-0 down against AC Milan, the fans stood firm. We never abandon our team and those that do, please don't come back. Thing is, there are plastic fans amongst us, like it or not. To anyone that is one, I'll be just as harsh regardless of your affiliation.

Loud and proud! (http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/latest-news/it-s-official-lfc-fans-are-the-loudest)

It's like a broken record really. "Typical Liverpool fan", "typical manc". Seriously, when you make such statements don't you ever think back to how many people have used it before? WTF is a "typical Liverpool fan" anyway? Are you using the majority of Liverpool fans in Malaysia as an example? Well I tell you what, the majority aren't "typical Liverpool fans". The ones you see on TV week in, week out singing their hearts out even when the team is down are "typical Liverpool fans". Don't use a term you don't understand because most Malaysian fans are about the same, regardless of which club they support.

I could not disagree more. Years ago, Fergie wanted to exempt his team from the FA Cup (one of the oldest and prestigious club competitions in the world), to focus on Europe, which is deemed by world football fans as being the more 'valuable' tournament. I don't see how a club can consider themselves to be better or different from everyone else. When we won the treble in 2001, we played more games than anyone but did we complain? Saying the Europa League is a "pathetic competition" demeans our treble. So you agree it was the "Mickey Mouse" treble as coined by everyone else. I'm surprised to hear that any Liverpool fan can be ashamed of it. 10 years ago yesterday, we won the UEFA Cup after beating Alaves 5-4. A game that the great Johan Cruyff touted to be "boring" turned out to be one of the greatest finals of all time (topped of course by ourselves after Istanbul). Not many people talk about that game because it is overshadowed by the magnitude of Istanbul and rightly so, but to suggest that it mattered little is disrespectful.

Delusional? Hmm strong choice of words. I think we have hope in our hearts. Look at my signature. What does it say? I've always had faith. We may not win the league next year, I agree but it doesn't mean we stop trying. First you say that playing in the Europa League will lower our expectations then you go on to suggest that we need to manage our expectations. So which is it? Fact of the matter is we need to accept that we aren't today's giants. The Europa League is but a stepping stone on our road to recovery, and it is a step in the right direction.

I don't share your state of depression. I'm actually optimistic and I have faith in King Kenny. I have faith in the players. I have faith in the 12th man because as proven in Istanbul, we can make a difference. Whether it's a European Final or a friendly, we stand firmly behind the team and we don't let anyone tell us different.

i read an article somewhere that some actually do not want knighthood for our King Kenny based on the fact that the people who gives knighthood aka the queen, are the of the same side of people who, until today, still do not want to investigate and bring justice to the Hillsborough Disaster. the article states that to give knighthood to KD without doing justice to the 96 is something that belittles the club (something like that) . i'll try to dig up the article.

anyway based on what the article said, i would say it makes sense. whats so important of a knighthood anyway? we all know the contributions of some of our beloved figures. in our hearts, they are always Kings and Gods. they dont need someone who gives them datukship for something they dont even understand

2001 is the time where liverpool won 5 competition rite?

Is right. A major achievement for any team.

2001 is Owen's year

agree agree.

it seems next year will be really interesting
