I don't think you understand what I'm getting at which is fair enough because I've not gone into depth.

It's not about having a huge number of idiots or people who are hosed in the head because one look at Twitter or whatever will show you the obvious.

I'm talking about the people who consider Liverpool a club apart because of their history and values. The romance of the club is a huge reason they've continued to draw in fans despite not competing in the Champions League or for the title for a while.

All the YNWA stuff, the banners it is something that's a bit unique about Liverpool and that's something to be admired but it also draws in a specific type of fan that I personally can't stand.

It's all down to personal preference, is that okay?

UEFA SUPREMACY
Below are the teams that Arsenal have yet to mathematically eliminate and are the only remaining challengers to Champions League Qualification
Team Matches Played Magic # % of remaining points needed to guarantee finishing ahead
Everton 31 18 95%
Tottenham 32 11 58%
Manchester United 32 9 47%
Southampton 32 3 16%
Newcastle 32 1 5%
Notes
Magic number and methodology are explained below
We've almost eliminated Newcastle. If they win out and we lose out, we will finish tied with them. (Not happening)
All we need to do is win one more game, or Southampton to lose one game to guarantee finishing ahead of them
Any combination of 3 with Arsenal wins or Manchester United losses will insure finishing ahead of United
The Tottenham magic number is 11. This means that St. Totteringham's day can be as early as in 2 matchdays. (A potential of 6 Magic Number points lost per matchday x2 matchdays will eliminate Sp*rs) Although they play Sunderland and West Brom next.
Everton are by far our biggest foes. This makes next weeks match one of the most important of the season. A win against them would drop their magic number from 18 to 12 and probably insure Champions League Qualification.
Magic Number Explained
Magic Number = Future Arsenal Points + Future Opponent Points Conceded that will ensure Arsenal finishing ahead of them
When the Magic Number = 0, it is mathematically impossible for the opponent to finish ahead of Arsenal. (If you look at Tottenham, this could be used as the St. Totteringham's Day Countdown)
ELI5: When the number drops to 0 Arsenal guarantee finishing ahead of that team. The number drops when Arsenal gain points and/or the team concedes points
Methodology
At the beginning of the season, every team has a potential of winning 38 games at 3 points/game = 114.
Adding one point ensures that when the magic number =0, it will result in finishing above rather than tied. So, for Arsenal, at the beginning of the season, their magic number for every team is 115. (114+1)
The magic number can never go up. Only down.
When Arsenal win 1 game (Let's say the first game is against Tottenham), they capture 3 points, making the threshold of finishing ahead of every team drop by 3 points. So now, Arsenal's magic number is 112. BUT, Tottenahm just conceded 3 points with the loss, meaning that the magic number for Spurs dropped an additional 3 points, meaning that the magic number for finishing ahead of Sp*rs is now 109. (This is where we get the phrase a "6 point game".
Congruently, if Arsenal draw, the magic number for every team drops by 1 (1 Arsenal point gained), if an opposing team draws, the magic number for them drops by 2 (2 points conceded). Throughout the season, these numbers keep dropping until there are 0 points which means it is impossible for that team to finish ahead of Arsenal. At the end of the season, if a team still has points, it means they finished ahead of Arsenal.
Final Equation = 115 - (Arsenal Points) - (Points conceded by the opposition)
