So Liverpool v city in community shield ahead of next season - great start!

{Ed002's Note - Apparently it is, like the Premier League, meaningless and the Liverpool fans don’t care one iota.}

I care a great deal. Tremendous opportunity for LFC.

Ed, I thought you were more worldly wise and intelligent than to judge all Liverpool fans because of the views of a few thoughtless ones.

Can I just throw in another, potential, game for us to all agree, or disagree on the merits of? 14th August, Super Cup. At the end of that day we could have 2 pieces of silver to polish, before the season has barely got underway. I do stress potentially.

{Ed025's Note - another duffer for me rome along with the world club championship, all made up money spinners which mean absolutely FA, just my view of course mate..

For what it's worth Ed25, I tend to agree with you mate. As pointless as Eurovision, which I'm watching as I type this!
Australia in Eurovision; Discuss.

{Ed025's Note - yeah whats that all about rome?...get on norway at 14/1 mate..

I'm getting on to Paddy Power as I type Ed! 14/ 1, that's pinching money!
If it comes in there's a pint of Hop House behind the bar, Ed!

{Ed025's Note - nice one mate..

The Community Shield will be a good test to see where we stand compared to City after the summer window. If this season showed anything, it was that we cannot rely on other teams to take points of City as they are so much better than the other teams except us. The target next season will be to match all our results against the other 18 teams and to take 6 points off City (which we did not do and hence lost the league) . The Community Shield game gives KLopp and opportunity to evaluate a new strategy to beat City next season just like Pep figured LFC out this season.

Ed2 I’m guessing all the fans saying they don’t care about the community Shield are young and don’t remember us competing in it. I for one would like us to challenge on all fronts. I’d also prefer it if we had a good run in the domestic cups rather than field weak teams and go out early. The fa cup used to mean something years ago, sadly I don’t think many teams see it as important anymore which I think is down to the influx of foreign managers/ players. However that’s just my opinion, I’m not always right as my missus likes to point out.

{Ed001's Note - I am not young, nor do I give a toss about a pre-season friendly.}

Ed 1 you must be one of those fans ed2 is talking about them. Me I want to win everything.

{Ed001's Note - I want to win every competitive game, but I don't care about friendlies, they are just for fitness. I really do not like someone trying to bait me with the nonsense Ed02 uses to wind up the morons into biting either. It is petty.

I fear for anyone who thinks friendly results matter at all if they are not taking part in them. The Community Shield is a pointless game that should have been scrapped the moment it was revealed that the FA don't give enough of the proceeds to charity for it to count as a charity event.}

All I care about is watching more games, and therefore I'd welcome Community Shield, Super Cup, World Club Cup, etc. I'd also like us to field stronger teams in the domestic cups so that we get more games.

Sure, winning them is nice, but I just love watching my team. The more games, the better.

Let's be honest, Ed1 is right. It is only a friendly. When has anybody ever given a damn about the community shield? if we're resorting to that, being bothered about it then we're in trouble. All I'm bothered about is 4 things.

1. Keeping players fit and ready for the season ahead by having friendlies.
2. Seeing how the younger lads get on in pre season.
3. The CL final
4. The first game of next season.

This community shield is nonsense, it's nothing but a bit of exercise for the lads and if they win it they may have a bit of fun with it by using it as a Frisbee after the game.

Spot on, Ed01. Couldn't be arsed about the Community Shield. It is nothing BUT a glorified preseason friendly. If other fans are arsed about that, all power to them. They should not just start using the result to come on here and start spouting stuff like they know what team will do so and so during the season.
