Since my childhood, "The Reds" always refers to Liverpool Football Club.
Recently some other football clubs also start calling themselves "The Reds" when their jersey is not fully red. I think next time we can call Arsenal, Charlton, Manchester United, Middlesborough as "The Reds" too.
i always thought lpool was the reds.
man utd were the red devils.
arsenal the gunners.
recently though i saw newspaper start calling man utd the reds too.
dunno why.
There is only one "the reds".
Man Utd - red devils
Arsenal - gunners
Middlesborough - boro
Charlton - addicks (Correct me if I am wrong)
The press is just lazy or written by a bunch of non-soccer fans.
well. our local paper is the type who try to brainwash singaporeans n psycho them to support manure.
anyway i'm gonna boycott TNP from now onward for being bias toward manure. what for pay 70 cents for reading one side report dat praise only manure while putting down other clubs?
WHY PAY $0.70 for lots of advertisements than news reports ???
Newpaper is outdated liao ...
who dare call themselves The Reds when you're not Liverpool FC ?

jeffrey low right? the self-proclaim NBU (Nothing But United) manure n Brazil Supporter. from the way he write, can really piss most pple off.
when Brazil was thrashed by France in the final, i was laughing my ass off reading his one-sided report.
Happens in soccernet as well
oh yah, jeffery low...
stupid idiot. i read the papers for a report, not a biased fan based report.
for edwin yeo, i like his neutral reports, they are funny... at least to me.
and i like it when tottenham falls flat and his lamenting about the game.
overall, give me edwin yeo over the old man man utd supporter anytime.

Actually, nowadays I read for Iain Machintosh's stuff. It's kind of a breath of fresh air from soccernet and the other local readers. Some of the expressions he uses is funny, whether or not you agree with it or if it's too extreme.
But ultimately, New Paper is good for when you're travelling via public transport and you got no access to a comp. Outside of sports, it does have articles that Today or My Paper will not have. On days where I stay home or when I'm with people the rest of the day, I won't really need New Paper.

too bad edwin yeo is not around anymore. the current reporters r too bias in my opinion n tohari paijan a football analysis? gimme a break! the guy claimed he was arsenal supporter but it seems dat he has jump ship to manure. really wolf in sheep clothing!
i really hope that fans of other football clubs could stop calling themselves "The Reds" and use their proper name instead.
for man utd, i think it's some christian thingy, it's blasphemous to be supporting "The Devils" right?

from HyuugaNeji pointed out, even those moron reporters called manure "the Red" n Liverpool "Pool", it's no wonder these days pple will mistaken manure as the new liverpool.
maybe Liverpool should sue manure from stealing their nick.

And the list goes on.....
Everton - Toffees
Chelsea - Blues
Newcastle - Magpies
Portsmouth - Pompey
Derby - Rams
even the "blues" also being used by many clubs..
such as chelsea, birmingham, conventry, everton etc..
Lots of biasedness in reporting nowadays.
For example, Arsenal are now known as gooners(instead of gunners), pao bin炮兵 nowadays. Then liverpool is now just called pool...pathetic.
luckily today they never reported that "The Reds" lost
