Really not arsed at all about "Merseyside" chants. I don't want those scarlet fuckers anywhere near Wembley, let alone in a final against us. We all know how that ends. We get fucking screwed over every fucking time! I have far too many painful memories of us being robbed by those bastards at Wembley to ever want to face them there again. Forget all this friendly neighbours bollocks. We're not friends, We're bitter rivals. We may play in the same city, but we are not the same. Those delusional fuckers are a completely different breed. Away from the stadium, we may be friendly with them, socialise with them, just don't get onto the topic of football with one. They can be ok as long as you keep the topic of conversation well away from football.
Ooof pissing on my parade there.
It does lead to us winning the final, this is the positive vibes threat so its nailed on.
Personally I'd love to beat them in a final.. precisely for the reason that we lost them in the 80's and I ended up having a fight with my best mate in the park as he was taking the piss. We were both in our kits.. must have been a right sight.

I like the way we're having to relearn being optimistic.

Should we change the lyrics to Spirit of the Blues?
It’s good news for the blues,
And there’s no more time to lose,
Cos we’re hot on the trail,
And there’s no way we’re gonna fail,
So get your
passport and get moving,
Cos we don’t know the meaning of losing,
So come on come on,
Get down to Goodison Park,
Wooooo.

You felt the sense of excitement in the stadium when we played Brighton. It was just different.
It’s felt like we were being held back by staying at Goodison for decades. Ever since a move was mentioned, it’s been hanging over the club and the fans for nearly 30 years.
It’s like a weight has been lifted and we can all move forwards and upwards. The possibilities have definately shifted as to what we can now achieve with good management on and off the pitch.

This is the getting carried away, no pessimists please.
I think you misunderstood me.
I meant I am always an optimist who would rather be proved wrong but start from a getting carried away point of view then be a pessimist just waiting to be proven right.

Also, should it be "Get down to Bramley Moore Dock"?

Prepare to be very disappointed if you expect any sort of kindness or even fairness from referees. We are absolutely fucking hated bt the PL. Look me in the eye and tell me, honestly, would either of the two penalties given against us in the opening fixtures have been given against the shite? The answer is a resounding "Fuck, No!" There would be a full on media campaign for "justice" and calls for the PGMOL to be disbanded completely if even one of those were given against those fuckers! It would be discussed in fucking parliament and everything, how Gobshite FC were robbed and the referee needs to face criminal charges for corruption.
Read the thread title please!

There's getting carried away and then hoping for the legitimately impossible.
Having refs look out for us? Just not in the realms of feasibility.
On topic though, I would like to head into the summer after winning a cup with confirmation that Green day and AC/DC have sold out concerts at Bramley Moore and tickets were dead easy to come by because they went on sale to season ticket holders only first!

Maybe getting carried away a bit too much with Ac/DC, they playing next month at O2Acadamy 2, Capacity 500, not sold out yet though.
