What the likes of Lord God Jose Mourinho will never understand is that there is a level of mutual respect between Liverpool and Man U fans that never gets heard. Yes, we hate each other with a passion (not personally, but as a group) but the fact that both sets of fans are so alike is probably the reason.

There is just nothing I could begrudgingly respect about Chelsea or it's fans, that's just the way it is and more than likely the way it will remain.

totally agree keith add arsenal to your list and possibly everton, genuine big clubs with a glittering history.................

there was a poll last week on some website that voted roy keane the hardest player of all time, i am sure that tommy smith, norman hunter, graeme souness, duncan fergusson and peter reid would have more claim to the title than keane. but the hardest player i have ever seen is dave mackay who is yours????

Lord God won't like this but that is scarily similar to something I nearly posted that last time there was a United/Liverpool war on here. Football apart, the cities have as many similarities as differences and the rivalry extends to commerce, industry and culture. Always has done, always will do. I've worked in both and I'm better for it.

As an aside, and to ensure there are now misunderstandings, altogether now - YOU SCOUSE *******D

I love it the fact is if Chelsea would have just played how they do every week and not sit on the goal they had they would have won comfortably instead look what happened
