Apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong place. First trip up to Liverpool this weekend, wondering if there's any particular pubs in which Blues fans get together up there for pre-match pints and songs, and to have safety in numbers from the dippers?

 

Cheers

I've drank in The Cabbage Hall over the years, The Arkles, Flat Iron were also away friendly.

Also have a look at this guide.

They have educational institutions up there?

Yes we do mate. I've been a Chelsea fan for 15 years but I'm a scouser, born and bred. Thank you very much.

It is about the only thing they have haha

I've met a few scouse Chelsea fans over the years, once down at Southampton at the Dell in the late 80s early 90s, they'd made a weekend of it, we couldnt believe with the success the city had had over the years with both Everton & Liverpool those lads chose to support us.

 

The other time we had a family of scousers sat behind us at a league cup game at Anfield in 2001, the whole family young & old were in Chelsea gear.

We get in just before noon and still undecided as to where we're drinking. Most likely be The Flat Iron. Come on Chels, let's smash em

Fair play, do you get a lot of stick for being Chels?

Most of my family are Liverpool fans, bar a couple of Evertonians and four United fans. Me and my uncle support Chelsea though.

Oh yes. I get 'rentboy' chanted at me quite often, despite being female. Don't really give one, though!

The ones that are born and bred Londoners have massive chips on their shoulders. I have had many a heated argument with London Liverpool followers. 

Yeah i know there are a few Londoners support Liverpool, like. Why would they have massive chips on their shoulders, though?

Last time I was in the arkles the bar lady said you lot are the worst bunch we ever had in here ha ha good day out.

They have educational institutions up there? 

Fagin's secondary modern.

Have a great n noisy day out to allBlues going to pool today...

I do have a question though. What's with the bin dipper nickname for Liverpool? I never understood it. I've lived here my whole 29 years and not seen anyone dipping in bins. And surely Everton would have the same nickname then as they are all scousers? :-/ lol.

In your Liverpool slums
You look in the dustbin for something to eat
You find a dead rat and you think it's a treat
In your Liverpool slums
In your Liverpool slums
You sh*t on the carpet, you piss in the bath
You finger your grandma, and think its a laugh
In your Liverpool slums

In your Liverpool slums
You speak in an accent exceedingly rare
You wear a pink tracksuit and have curly hair
In your Liverpool slums

In your Liverpool slums
Your mum's on the game and your dad's in the nick
You can't get a job cos you're too f**king thick
In your Liverpool slums

 

 

not sure of the origins of bin dipper but this used to be a song sung to them across the country

Well i'm a scouser so i find that offensive but i suppose football fans all sing something to each other. I wouldn't sing vile songs about the people of this city cos i AM one, despite the fact i support Chelsea.

Fair play to you mate, back in the 70s and 80s there was a lot of songs sung to opposing fans that were very derogatory. It was part and parcel of a match day when grounds were far from sterile in the atmosphere and some could be extremely hostile, Liverpool being one of the worst places to visit as an away fan.
