...will be heard at Anfield next season. It's been too long, and I for one can't wait to hear it again. Whether we're in it as actual champions or merely as the most exciting up and coming team in Europe, it will incredible.
whatever happens from now till the end of the season it's been a remarkable ride.

I said that to my mate. It's the most entertaining season I've ever seen.

I've seen us win it once (I started going to matches aged 9 so had my heartbroken by Arsenal & saw us win the league too), but at that age it's hard to appreciate it, esp when so many of the men standing alongside you don't appreciate it for what it is, they'd been that used to trophies that they didn't take it for granted, but they attached less importance to it because it was more commonplace.

24 long years later & we're playing football that is quite simply out of this world. We're blowing away teams in a manner I've never seen consistently in this league & were doing it in comprehensive style with a swagger & self belief that is enthralling even some blues & Utd fans to respect it.

It's impossible not to smile, gasp & spontaneously applaud whilst you'll watch us, even in between biting your nails. I have NEVER, never watched us play again & again so much as this season. I watch most matches three times so I can appreciate what I am seeing.

If we don't win it, I'll be gutted, but fuck me, I've fallen in love with these boys in red, & I've fallen in love with football all over again. If my wife would let me I'd have pullouts from Match on my bedroom wall & a Liverpool duvet on the bed.
 
It's gone a long way to allowing me to love football again. I was lucky to have a season ticket in 87-88 at age 19 to 20. That's the best all round team I've ever seen, we blew teams away just like this year, but the defence was fucking brilliant too.
 
The pompous idiots at UEFA should be ordered to use the theme from Monty Python for a year just to underline what a joke all of that pre-match nonsense is. The latest in the Premier league is that stupid 'ball on a dais' routine. Someone should knock the ball off and replace it with a wad of notes. That would be more fitting.
 
The speed at which they're playing at the moment, Benny Hills theme would be more apt.

Making thr opposition look like clowns..
 
Being in the CL won't be good for health with additional nights in the pub to be added to the social calendar!
 
We'll probably be 2nd or 3rd seeds seeing that our co-efficient ranking is currently 32nd.

Liverpool face tough draw in next season's Champions League – even if they pull off Premier League triumph
Brendan Rodgers could face a baptism of fire should Liverpool qualify for next season's Champions League tournament

By Mark Ogden 02 Apr 2014
[article=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/liverpool/10739211/Liverpool-face-tough-draw-in-next-seasons-Champions-League-even-if-they-pull-off-Premier-League-triumph.html]
Liverpool face the daunting prospect of a Champions League group including Bayern Munich and Juventus next season, even if Brendan Rodgers’ team end the club’s 24-year wait for the league title in the final weeks of this campaign.

With the five-time European champions closing in on a return to the Champions League for the first time since the 2009-10 season, the four-year exile from the competition has left the club languishing in 32nd position in Uefa’s co-efficient table.

Manchester City, who have been forced to navigate so-called ‘Groups of Death’ in their three seasons in the competition, will find themselves elevated from Pot Three to Pot Two next season as a result of their progression to the knock-out stages of this year’s Champions League and Manchester United’s likely absence from next year’s tournament.

But even if Liverpool secure Champions League qualification by winning the Premier League, their Uefa ranking will dictate their seeding position next season and the best they can hope for is a place in Pot Three.

Uefa’s club coefficient rankings are based on a team’s results over the five previous seasons of the Champions League and Europa League - with seedings generated accordingly based on a club’s position in the table.

So the nightmare prospect for Liverpool would see them paired with Bayern and Juventus or Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain in next season’s group stage.

Alternatively, Liverpool could be fortunate and land Benfica or Porto from Pot One, with the likes of FC Basel or Zenit St Petersburg from Pot Two.

Uefa’s co-efficient table continues to be updated following every round of the Champions League and Europa League, but Liverpool’s position is unlikely to alter between now and the end of the campaign.

Chelsea and Arsenal have earned enough points to retain their Pot One status next season, although Arsenal’s battle to remain in the top four could see them miss out on the Champions League if Everton overhaul Arsène Wenger’s team between now and May 11.

City are currently sitting in the final berth in Pot Two and could yet drop back into Pot Three if United pull off an unexpected Champions League triumph and secure their place in next season’s competition by winning it in Lisbon on May 24.

City’s rise to Pot Two has also been helped by the domestic struggles of Valencia, AC Milan, Inter Milan and Lyon.

All four clubs are ranked higher than City, but none are likely to qualify for next season’s Champions League.[/article]
 
Not quite the lowest - pot 3 of 4.

A reasonable draw should still give us a good chance of progressing. And at least it'll be fun.
 
What seed were we In 04-05 ? We had to go through qualification and thm had Olympiakos , Monaco and deportivo was it?

If we did it then with the mid-summer start,I'd never discount us, I almost hope we get a big group.

Couldn't be sure but think Deportivo were top seeds and we were probably second. We'd won the Uefa Cup in 2001 and been in Europe every season since then, performing reasonably well.
 
I played in a CL qualifier many years ago, and we had to come out onto the ground to the music.

The coolest moment in my very fucking brief football career.
 
I'd like a group with Bayern and Juve. That would be fucking boss.

As for the burst of adapted Handel that UEFA have amended just enough to copyright, shove it up your fucking cock.

I've always wanted a cockhandel.
 
I am sure it is already in there. Unless Woland has a number of similar gifs to that description.

He probably has
