Solidly in the running for their first ever Premiership crown this season, as well as marching down yet another European glory road, LIVERPOOL are one of the biggest and most successful football clubs on the planet. They're also staunchly supported by EA Sports boss Peter Moore, who blogs HERE.
Liverpool can still claim to have won more domestic titles than their arch rivals, Manchester United - if only just. And they can direct Man Utd in the direction of the Anfield trophy cabinet, where gleaming inside they'll find two more European prizes than Man Utd can display at home.
But for all that Man Utd are still the biggest, richest club in world football. In fact, they're the richest club in any sport (although MANCHESTER CITY's nouveau riche on the other side of town might disagree). It's a fact born out by the numbers of people in Man Utd's Football World GROUP - more than 8,700 people and counting.
But none of that will bother a Liverpool fan. Liverpool, too, boast an incredibly far-flung fanbase. One charge frequently levied at Man Utd is that the club has lost its local roots with its enormous global reach. The same could be said of Liverpool, perhaps, but the MILLION-STRONG CROWD that lined the city's streets following Liverpool's famous 2005 Champions League victory might beg to differ.
So if you're a lurking Pool fan, get signed up. Remember: the fight needs to be taken to the Man Utd lot!
Just like it was back in 1910, when Man Utd played their very first game at Old Trafford. It was against Liverpool, and despite being 3-0 down, Liverpool surged back into the game and beat them 4-3.
If there's one thing a Liverpool fan will always know, it's that you're never, ever too far behind.
