So on June 25th 2020, what had seemingly been a wait through eternity was over, after many near misses and humiliations, after slips, fact rants and Macheda scoring with his backside, Liverpool have finally done it and they've made it look easy.
Everyone knows the story though and this post isn't about why it's a story, this post is about the release of Liverpool winning the league from a 27 year old loser 😂! So here we go.
Supporting Liverpool has been like a life lesson, which I've not succeeded in that well at times, to not get ahead of yourself, I'll always remember the celebrations watching Liverpool beat Manchester City 3-2 in the Roundabout pub, thinking the league was finally coming to Anfield, followed by, a week later, Steven Gerrard's infamous heartbreaking slip.
But this time it was different, this time they didn't just get across the line, they sprinted to it and surpassed it to another level, they made it happen, they believed. The mental strength to come back from losing by a point last year, to win the league (with a similar story in the UCL running a year earlier) is incredible.
This Liverpool team is the definition of the phrase "if at first you don't succeed try and try again". There was a time I ever doubted I'd see Liverpool win the league and yeah, there are and will always be more important things, but it's a constant and I speak on behalf of every Liverpool fan when I say we have taken more than a lifetimes worth of shit about our teams failures.
Anyway, I ain't gonna go too deep.
It's time to revel in our teams success.
Thank you Jurgen, thank you to the squad, the way you've fought through the lows to get to this moment, is a genuine inspiration.
