Dear Liverpool, it's not your fault

Dear Liverpool and all their supporters,

I'm sure you would feel hard done by this completely surprising title sweep by Manchester United. I understand your concerns and emotions wholeheartedly. In fact, I do feel some sorrow on your part for the fact that you didn't win the title you deserved to.

I mean, who could have predicted that the only two players in your team capable of doing something decent would have been so untimely and unfortunately injured at your most crucial time. It was unjust that you were penalized based on your incompetent financial planning and spent your bulk load of your transfer kitty on a player you sold back to the club he came from for a 8 million pound loss. I mean, it's not your fault you didn't buy a real player that could have helped you win the league. It's not your fault you had to hinge your entire team on two individuals. It really isn't.

And for you to beat the Champions away by 4-1, that really proved that the title deserved to be yours. It really did. Let's be frank, you whipped a team you lost to 3-0 last season by 4 goals. The FA should have just hosted the celebrations and handed you the trophy the moment the final whistle blew. After all, the league is won in one game right? Clearly a victory of such dignity would merit an immediate reward in the form of the league title. How unjust and unfair. You deserved to be champions based on that single fantastic showing of mind-blowing, world-shocking, galaxy-shattering football. We all had 30 orgasms watching Vidic get sent off.

It's not your fault you unjustly drew 11 times out of 36 games and lost twice. It's not fair that you had no teeth or threat in scoring goals. It's not your fault you failed to score to Villa, West Ham, Boro, Fulham and Stoke (twice). They are all reigning European supergiants who were unfairly pitted against you and demonstrated a level of football far beyond your class. It's just not fair that you had to face teams of such quality and depth. Your failure to score a single goal against all of them really didn't merit United winning the title instead of you.

Of course, it's not your fault you lost 2-1 to Tottenham after taking the lead in the 3rd minute. I mean, ALL teams just randomly implode on occasion. It's not fair you lost 3 points against the massive Middlesbrough. You didn't deserve to lose! The ball just oddly found its way to the back of your net without any reason, twice!! The 4 goals you conceded against Arsenal wasn't bad defending, it was mere luck. Also, forget that you lost 2 points on that game, you earned a kazillion points based on "team spirit" and "effort" to score 4 goals against the team that depended on Mikael Silvestre to save their ass. Those kazillion points would have definately won you the title by a mile, had the FA remembered to tally them in.

It's not your fault your team didn't have any depth in the squad, and it's not your fault that you were constantly on the end of bad refereeing decisions. Refs just hate Liverpool. All of them. It's not fair all the refs were against your team in all the games, all the time, in all the occasions. It's not your fault you lost the title to the world's best team. It's not your fault you lost the title based on your own demerit. It's not your fault that you succumbed under the pressure of a year-long league. It's not your fault the EPL isn't won based on a single 4-1 result. It's not your fault, Liverpool. Don't cry over it. Robbie Keane isn't. You shouldn't too. After all, Rafa will never admit defeat and the Kop flag will keep flying high...as long as things remain fair, of course.

You'll never walk alone, Liverpool. You have the other 18 losing teams to walk with you.
