Interesting reply there, Roberto. Sort of flys against your opinion of our former manager when you wanted him out, when some of us argued against such opinion saying that no other manager will do a better job than he did over his 3 years of putting up with their sh*te. So now the u-turn?

To be honest Emerald I always stuck by Rafa right until the last 5 or 6 games and I have nothing but respect in what he tried to achieve but the fact that he took to much on board at the club ie fighting the owners(rightly so) and having control of transfers and everything in the academy took it's toll on the main team.

We have been managed by 2 foreigners for 12 years now and we have been excited when they were appointed because they were big names and they never really worked out, So just maybe with us all not really expecting much Roy might just surprise a few,

His track record doesn't have to be on the level of someone like Capello or Mourinho. Souness and Evans hadn't won the english title or european titles yet they were appointed at Anfield. Obviously there are better managers out there by give Roy time. He could do very well I certainly think a return to pass and move football is likely rather than the tosh offered by Rafa in recent years.

How long is the contract, I havent seen it written?

When you say 'give him time', I wonder how long Woy envisages staying in the job? More than 2 years?

I voted im not happy,

I am not over the moon with the sappointment but I am satisfied that Roy Hodgson will do a good job for LFC. My understanding is he was the choice of Kenny, Stevie and Carra and that is very important to me (and I would assume all others on here) as it will be Stevie and Carra who can/will convince Torres to stay on. Danny Murphy might even make a return to Anfield.

Where's that facepalm smiley thing when you need it, eh?

A step forward? You seriously think Hodgson is a step forward from Benitez? Catch a f*cking grip, fella. If Roy wins us the league or CL in his first season, maybe you can see he's on equal grounds before saying he's a step up. If he doesn't, well, then you can start calling for the man's head, eh?

Why is that?
Has Rafa left Hodgson in the same position as Houllier left him?
Is that the new criteria: win the CL in your first season or f'uck off coz youre sh'it?
Seriously?

Not happy in much the same respect as if I came home and found another man's dirty undies in the washing basket with the initials CP sewn into the lining (IN OTHER WORDS OUR MISTRESS ,OR OUR OTHER LOVE IF YOU PREFER IS BEING UNCEREMONIOUSLY SCREWED ) and a large proportion of fans are completely and blissfully unaware

I don't think it's a particularly inspirational appointment but with the club being controlled by crooked businessmen and potential asset strippers , it's just about the best deal we could get........Roy Hodgson will get the support of the fans, in fact he will have more support from us than the cretins that employed him.....I'm sure he knows this is a temporary post until a new owner is found and we will have to just suck and see. Hopefully the players will rally behind him and not seek pastures new;that will be his 1st test and I hope his 1st achievement, to keep the squad intact.
