His PR is very good. I have mentioned in previous posts that the French press give him a lot of praise for the way he gets the English press on his side. He gives interviews ALL the time. He is more widely reported down here in London than even Wenger or Ranieri. As a result, the quality journalists and papers have given him an easy ride.

But there I was on Saturday morning, relaxing before heading off to White Hart Lane. I took a look at the Telegraph Sports section. There he was. A centre page spread on GH's 'philosophy', with a photo of him which covered both pages. He looked and sounded like a cross between Mother Theresa and a kindly headmaster.

The journalist, Sue Mott, wrote in revered and respectful words, about his vision for the future, his 'successes' and how he finds the critics like us as laughable. I read the whole thing........patronising, condescending rubbish. I wanted to scream.....WHAT SUCCESSES? ??? We are twenty points off Arsenal and closer in points terms to Leeds United. We are closer in points terms to the relegation zone than we are to the third placed team.

He has created this team of underachievers and he thinks that the criticism is unjustified. We have become also rans in the league. He is a pillock living in a fantasy world, dreaming of winning Worthington Cups. What an idiot.

Then, worse was to come. After we got outplayed by Spurs, I had to head off to Glasgow to see a sick relative. I thought to myself, well, at least no more Houllier interviews for a few days. WRONG.

I got to Glasgow, and there was Martin O'Neill talking about his phone call with Houllier. Our revered manager has been telling the press that O'Neill has friends in the press and is using them to undermine Houllier and to get his job. We then had O'Neill talking about it, then Houllier trying to laugh it off. But O'Neill was clearly offended.

All Houllier has done is to try to make it even more difficult for Moores to offer him a job.

Houllier is a pompous p**ck who is using the club to fuel his own preposterous ego. I really can't take any more of his bu****it.

Houllier gets cut a lot of slack by the media compared to Graeme Hoddle, for example.

If you haven't already read it, try to get a hold of Saturday's Telegraph article on Houllier, the miracle worker of Anfield.

If they had blanked out his poster sized photo (honestly, his photo covers both pages) and replaced the text with references to Curbishley, I'd understand. The man's ego comes first. Sadly, I think that Parry and Moores are terrified of him.

Anyway, do try to read it. It says a lot about his perception of the club, his so called successes and where he is trying to take us (though he was vague on that point).

The article will make you want to throw up or punch him.
