You seem to have forgotten League Cups, Manchester United are the current champions, and have 3 victories, but Liverpool have 7.
This is seen by UEFA as the same as the FA cup with the same European reward. But I can understand hao this doesn't fit with your warped logic

Liverpool 37
Manchester United 36

I still struggle with the conecpt of having to hate somebody because they are from a different town than I am.

Of the teams I'm 'supposed' to hate, being from Warrington, I probably have more trouble 'liking' Widnes, but by no means do I hate them. I am somewhat bemused by the attitude and behaviour of a number of their townfolk; some seem to have a real chip on their shoulder. I do have a strong dislike for some people I have encountered there whilst playing rugby, but that is due to their personality and I have enountered similar elsewhere. Widnes, however, remains the only town I have seen a fully grown man berate a little old lady because of the rugby team she supports.

One thing that grates at me with Sintelluns, in rugby terms, is the SkySports love-in that anyone who plays for Saints is "a GB certainty for the future" - Scott Moore, Kyle Eastmond, et al. That, however, isn't the fault of the Sintelluns public, nor even the lads themselves, it's just bleeding annoying.

Wigan.. Well, I actually love Wigan as a town and there are very few Wiganers I have come across and didn't like. There's banter there in rugby terms, but, for me at least, nothing mallicious.

There are people that I consider good friends who support those three teams, too.

While we're sharing the love, I'd like to point out that my two favourite (other) rugby towns are Leigh and Castleford.

In fact, if anything, I have had more difficulty at times liking some Wire 'fans', but I suppose familiarity can breed contempt at times. *

*Don't take this and turn it into a big issue, no doubt we've all seen someone at the matches and thought Very funny, but keep it clean please!.

Widnes, I'll hate them till I die.

The game we sent them down at their ground was one of the happiest days of my life, 68 16 was it?? I've got an old phone somewhere with a picture of the score board from that day

I was gutted they didn't get back into super league and that we've not had them in the cup. You can't hate what's not there!

I also hate them because they have got Cullen & Toa, they went into administration and f***ed up our boxing day challenge.

They smell, they have a poop bridge that's green and always has some idiot trying to jump off it (which they never do, just cause traffic chaos)

Their cheerleaders are fitter than ours, their KFC is actually closer to where I live than Winwick Road and I love a KFC.

funny you've just reminded me of when Alex Murphy was your coach and said that if Wire lost the challenge cup final to Widnes in 1975 then he would jump off the bridge. We won but the nice bloke never fulfilled his promise.
