With 2013 coming to an end, and as people strive to make New Years Resolutions, I find myself looking at some of the reaction to Liverpool defeats on the various social media outlets and forums that I sometimes wonder when all the common sense went out of being a football fan?

It was the season to be jolly, until Boxing Day, when Alvaro Negredo's awkward strike was helped into the back of the net by Simon Mignolet's hand and gifted Manchester City three points, prompting mass hysteria on Twitter - as always seems to be the case these days.
"He isn't good enough!" and "Bring back...
It wouldn't surprise anyone if defeat at the Etihad was to be the result for all nineteen visiting teams this season.
