I don't think I've ever been to a friendly that hasn't been utter guff.

Generally find football that doesn't involve Hibs tedious

I’m all for it. All the money they clubs will bring, why not? Lots of Italians and other tourists in the country at the time - bring it on. Get a Hibernian selling point in the city centre too.

Cringey and desperate for who exactly? It's a one off chance to see something different albeit a friendly that will have little meaningful football content. If you don't like it don't go. Your view is small minded and pathetic. It's no wonder outsiders see Scots as parochial and backward thinking.

But this isn't what we are talking about, we are talking about folk who ignore their local clubs to follow 'glamour' EPL clubs. I saw someone else on the thread say 'so what kids often follow two teams' and that's always been true, the difference is that these days a lot of kids follow EPL clubs as their main club with a Scottish club a distant second.
And if anybody thinks there's no harm in this game, then they should be asking themselves why EPL clubs take their knackered players on exhausting trips to China, the USA and elsewhere … Its not for the fun of it or the quality of the opposition or because the players are simply going to love it, its to attract shirt sales, sponsorship and tourist fans to their games. There are a dozen stadiums in England where Liverpool could play a friendly while Anfield is being used by the Spice girls or whoever …. let them play it at Twickers if they are so desperate to play in a rugby stadium.

Anyone got info on KO? SRU site says 12.00AM which I guess is a default time prior to confirmation. LFC site has it as TBC.
Afternoon or evening?

These clubs make more than enough from Scottish viewers, without trying to take our fans away
Just bolt Liverpool

I hope all on here that are raging against this will not be watching any of Champions League or EPL games next year. That is only bumping up viewing figures and therfore increasing the money flowing into English football from TV, which is the real issue.

If anyone is struggling to decide, I would recommend using a force field analysis to help with the decision.
Although this tool is most appropriate for decisions about change, it can be easily modified to help with every day uncertainties.

Those that support a top 4-6 English team. What's the difference between that and someone from Inverness or Dublin supporting Celtic and someone from Belfast and Ayr supporting Rangers?
Hibs and Hearts getting around 15k on a good day at £25 a pop. There will be people who have never been to either ground, never contributed a penny to football in Edinburgh or Scotland but will spend £100-150 on this day out.
Anyway mind your Salah wigs, selfie sticks and half and half scarfs.

The main thing to avoid of course, is not wanting to go somewhere but going anyway, or almost as bad, really wanting to go somewhere but staying at home instead. Make good decisions out there everyone

Mental that folk seem to be getting upset about something which they can totally ignore and it'll have no impact on them.

There are a significant number of young football supporters who spend more time and money supporting Top 6 English clubs than they do local clubs...that I would suggest is a cultural change since I was a boy...yes we usually had a 2nd team that were English (I loved Cloughies Forest) but I never bought a penny worth of merchandise or went to games...because I'm a Hibs supporter....that's just not the case anymore for many Edinburgh based football fans.
I can understand some of the hostility of Liverpool playing in Edinburgh against a club that's not from Edinburgh.

I didn't want to go to the doctor's to see about a small, uncomfortable sore on my inner jacksie. In the waiting room, the feeling of not wanting to go increased dramatically when my name was called out by an absolutely stunning doctor, half my age, called Roxy.
I was tempted to ignore her and pretend I was someone else, but steeled myself and went anyway. "How's your day been do far?", I said "Because it's about to get worse".
Obviously she had to have a look, but she needed a chaperone. A male doctor wasn't available so she brought in a female nurse to have a look with her. Kin mortified.
Anyway, I was glad I went because she prescribed me an antibiotic cream which dealt with the sore and I got her phone number*.
*I didn't get her phone number.Last edited by Hibbyradge; 07-06-2019 at 10:05 AM.

Murrayfield always host events every summer, we have the spice girls there pretty soon and no doubt others. This game is exactly the same. Loads of star struck fans filming the event on their phone. Each to their own, but it’s not for me. I really like watching Liverpool, but if I was going to see them it would be in a competitive game.
United we stand here....
