I love monkey man, and I turned that off after about 4 seconds. Fuck. Toots is on deaths door, show some respect.

Shouldn't players, you know...do stuff - lots of stuff - before they inspire a song? I fear The Singing Frog, Jamie Webster, whose gravelly market stall bleatings have bizarrely been promoted by the club, is at least partly responsible for this kind of tone deaf tosh. It almost makes an empty Anfield seem appealing.
In Madrid one of our party banned us from going anywhere near the stage when Webster was hawking his dreadful shite in the fan park. He was quite right.
The fanbase is very much divided these days. While the Hawaiian-shirted stretch-jeaned musos at the Anfield Wrap love nothing better than debating, at length and for subscribers only, the postmodern (mis?)appropriation of certain strands and tropes in Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica, or the case for and against Todd Rundgren's period of voice-driven musicianship, there are others who seem to prepare for each season's songs much like this:
It's probably hypocritical but I like the Allez song but hate both of those songs.
Jamie webster probably had more liverpool supporters singing in unison than have in decades, whatever your opinion on male vocal fry.
I hate social media but it's also the only way I feel part of what's going on about 99.99 percent of the time. That and you miserable cunts.

When the ghastly Cilla Black came back to Liverpool for a pantomime, playing very aptly the wicked witch, she had at one point to shout out to the audience, 'How shall I torture him?' To which someone replied, 'Sing to him, Cilla!' That's how I feel about Jamie 'I'm proper working class, me' Webster. I'm sure there are other ways to get supporters singing than relying on a bloke whose natural place is being moved on from outside WH Smiths. The 1980s went that way, Jamie, lad - wakey wakey!
The Robbo one predates the bitters one though. They just don't have any good songs to sing so it gets aired more often.
This is it.
There's no way we get the kind of atmosphere you (had pre covid) in any bar & music venue at the end of the night without the likes of Jamie Webster.
I'm by no means a fan, far from it, but it gives the songs a platform, a reach they would never have otherwise, & it massively encourages people to sing together, which seems normal to my generation but really wasn't for many of those after us.
I'm not sure what the 'likes' of Jamie Webster actually means, except that it makes me feel vaguely nauseous. There are surely loads of ways. It's happened for decades. It's rarely about the perceived cause, it's usually because of how much the effect is craved.
I’ve never had a doubt from Day 1.
Jesus we can be miserable old cunts on here.
Webster has grown our fan base and allowed so many fans world wide feel more closely connected to the last three years.

I suspect he may regret that wording.
However, many of our 'global fan base' have become more active in terms of singing & being vocal as a direct result of what Jamie Webster & youtube have done, for better or worse.
Hahahaha.
Pre covid, they're in the actual ground. We can't give OOTS shit for taking tickets but not be happy when they're joining in singing. At least they know the songs & the atmosphere, cos like it or not there's a load of them getting tickets every week.
