Hodgson might do a Cloughie at Leeds here. Got to stop the rot asap. But he'll remain in charge until the 15th Oct has come along and hopefully the rug gets pulled from under the 2 twits.

If this had of been how the season went under Kenny would people of taken the same stance? demanding Kenny to go cos he was not right for the job?

Its not Rafa's fault, any of it, we have a very good team, I said this before, its all down to the manager in the end.

FOL, we have a team of Torres, Gerrard, Carragher, Kuyt, Joe Cole, Meireles and Agger and we can't beat Blackpool FOFL  :D

So yeh this superduper clique wrist slasher didnt want Him at start and after what ive seen so far dont want him now. HES NOT FU.CKING GOOD ENOUGH FACT

Roy has been left with a club that has been pulled apart by Rafa,most of the p[layers should not be at the club.


FACT!

Yeah lets all blame the fat spanish waiter and not Roy  :buttrock
There is no-one anywhere in the world at any stage who is any bigger or any better than this football club.

Sacking him financially is not the right move seeing they'll have to fork out compenstation - further waste of money! Why they never stuck Dalglish in charge in the first place I will never know?

In my mind there is a fundamental difference now between the situation involving Rafa, Houllier, Evans and other past managers, and Roy.

In the past when other managers struggled I thought it was proper and sensible to be patient with the manager and to give him time.

The reason for this is because with past managers the club and fans invested a lot of capital in a new project with the manager.

The situation is fundamentally different with Roy. There is no new long term project, there are no long term plans. Lets not delude ourselves here: with the ownership situation as it is there can be no long term project. The truth is that without investment in players the team is in long term decline and the best any manager can do at the moment is to try to keep us reasonably competitive, try to keep our heads above water and with an extraordinary amount of luck be in with an outside chance of qualifying for the CL (IMO, the best possible scenario at the moment).

No one expected Roy to perform miracles and have us challenging for honours, but the minimum expected was that he'd steady the ship and try to maximise the resources he has got. This is a short term task, at the most two seasons, most likely just one, but so far he has failed miserably to do so. Not only have the results been bad, but the performances have been even worse and there is no indication that we are likely to see an improvement any time soon.

Therefore as I have seen it Roy has failed in this task and should be relieved of his duties immediately. He never had the support of the majority of the fans and the crowd are likely to turn against him in a serious way now.

Sounds like a post from last season where half the fans here was sure we would get one of them if Rafa was sacked.

Good post,

I still think we should give him at least 3 games, if we win the next 3 then I think it will become interesting

Thats an interesting question Lee. However, Kenny has major history with the club, Roy has none. Kenny's previous achievements would likely earn him a lot more patience from the crows and I think people would forgive Kenny if he failed.

Because they wanted a man in who would not give them any sh*t about how much of a bunch of clueless tw*ts they are. We could really do with at least one person in the boardroom who has a basic concept of how a football club works, if you try to run it like a regular business you end up making a giant mess, our current predicament being a prime example of that.

Liverpool have never sacked a manager during the middle of  a season. It won't happen anythime soon.

I'm not saying that he was the right man for the job in the first place but if we panic and sack him now we may aswell change our name to Newcastle United.

That said, he'd better stop playing players out of position and fast. I mean yesterday we had  Kuyt wide left, Meireles wide right and for what? To keep Poulsen in the side? Our best attacker ended up being our fourth choice centre back. I couldn't get my head around it.

Then again I can't get my head around anything that's happening at the club at the moment.

Mike, you're deluding yourself. This is not Liverpool FC, that great institution is long dead. This is Kop Holdings Ltd and the old ways are long gone. All bets are off.

The links to our illustrous past have been well and truly severed.

Anyway, Souness was sacked mid season.

FACT!

Absolute fking bollock.s Lakes.

The team Rafa left Roy was a top 6/top 5 team. A team capable of more with the right balance as we saw in Rafa's penultimate season.

Roy has made several of his own additions to the team. Yes Rafa underacheived that season but what do you call what is happening now? Were we ever in the relegation zone udner Roy? It's his responsability now and he has to take the blame.

Because he is English he becomes the teflon don and can't shoulder any blame? Fk that mate we have gone backwards under Roy and some here are having trouble admitting it.

Worst start in 57 years.  and we got relegated that year.  (according to an article i read).

Roy should walk now.  Especially if he dreams of the England job in 2 years time.

nothing to do with the players we have, buddy.

we have a strong lineup, unless u r telling me Blackpool has a stronger lineup than us as we were outplayed at home by them.

football is a team game, and collectively we played rubbish.
RH's job is to organised these talented individuals to play team football, n he is not doing this.

n he deserved all credits or blame for all the results we r getting.
