Liverpool are the best team in the Premier League. It's offical

[Youstolemyname]

In terms of support at least...

i love the way they did a nationwide survey of 2,708 people.

LMAO

.....That were stood outside Anfield on matchday

Come on, even the most desperate Liverpool fan knows they're not the best supported team. United have been miles ahead of the rest for years. Do you honestly think it would suddenly change after winning the league and Champions League last season. Dream on, you're probably only slightly ahead of Chelsea and Arsenal right now. You weren't even the best supported club in the 70's & 80's.

 

[Youstolemyname]

Can't argue with the stats and a sample of 2,708 would give you a less than 2% margin of error in your stats.

Suck it up United boys, second place as usual

We got 9th +

O well s'pose we have to lose at summit

You'd think a team with such great support would at least be able to fill their stadium more often

This is a similar comparison to an online vote of Blade Runner getting the best Sci Fi film vote recently on one website .....of less than 1% of people who have ever seen that film or Star Wars (ep IV)

Its complete **** - but good for a laugh

 

[Youstolemyname]

Now that really does surprise me as it is rare I see an empty seat at Anfield and has been like that for years.

I think we all know the best supported team is Middlesbrough, Bolton or Wigan.
You're not pulling the wool over anyone's eyes.

Blade Runner IS the best sci-fi movie ever. By a long, long way.

Even i'm disgusted at the level of support Middlesbrough has.

Though when you look at the catchment area and the percentage of the population that attends the games, it's pretty good.

Stop disagreeing with Franky just for the sake of it Nok !

































It would obviously be Starship Troopers

That site's wrong, Ashburton Grove only holds 60,355 now. They reduced the capacity.

It's roughly the same..around 2000 seats on average empty. Which really does beg the question why I can never get tickets to go down

 

[Youstolemyname]

Actually I am starting to dispute that survey because everyone knews that Newcastle United fans are the best in the world and therefore the 'toon are the best supported team

Unless they dont take complimentary and corporate tickets into account in this calculation? Only way I can see how they get to those figures...
