Exactly! We are now officially a laughing stock.
Rodgers has just knocked us back; cue the floodgates opening on how desperate and sh'it we are that the manager of swansea fu'cked us off!
Just had a message saying Martinez is right up our street as hes used to fighting relegation
Nice one FSG!

FS Thommo you're becoming hysterical. I'll inform the crew

fair play to rodgers for being a realist.
he knows he has a good thing at swansea and is a hero there and if he left for us it would be a completely different game altogether.a year or two max is all he would get and he's no fool to risk what he has.
if martinez had any sense he would do the same and push himself forward for the villa job.

people need to be serious here and think of how bad we can actually play and have done numerous times over the season.if we install a manager who's out of his depth then those performances could become a thing of the norm.this situation imo is more of a reality than a return to the cl next season.

besides ssn are now saying we are going to interview at least 12 candidates.i hope martinez and rodgers were just thrown in to cover the scent of the clubs real target.

The last few years this club has become a laughing stock. And it's continuing to do so because of the money men.

This is my greatest fear. When mediocrity becomes the norm. FSG have a huuuuuuuuuuge decision to make. Get this wrong and it could be bye bye LFC as we know it.

Hysterical! Of course Im hysterical!
The worlds crashing down around our ears. The things we had which kept us above the likes of evertonians was dignity, class and the ability to attract good managers. Fu'ck me, Martinez and Rodgers! We laughed when they got moyes from mighty preston. We are interviewing 12 people. How desperate are we?! They are now rightly laughing their ***** off at us with good reason. Its a Fu*king shambles!
Sadly I have to accept that we are no longer what we were. If ever there was evidence that we have slipped into being a mid table, mediocre club this is it.

"Did we progress under Kenny in the league? How?"

Taking into consideration what happened last season I think 8th wasnt as bad as people are making out
Of course we wanted to finish higher and even reach 4th but it wasnt to be. Thats not reason enough to sack KK. It was just an excuse
What KK should have done was got us from 12th to 10th instead of 6th in his first season, then up to 8th this one. Then it would have been progress...

It is bad because you don't spend that kind of money and end up 8th.
Apart from the poor transfers, his stubbornness also caused his downfall.
He constantly put his faith on players like Downing and Henderson instead of Kuyt and Maxi, who will guarantee you goals.
Maxi, plays so little but somehow always scores. His positioning and ability to instinctively score is just amazing.
There's many other justifications which have been mentioned but IMO, this was the correct decision.
Now let's wait and see who the next manager is before we get hysterical.

Rodgers would be stupid to step into such a big role, as would Martinez. The job is too big for both of them right now. Rodgers should stay at Swansea and Martinez should find himself a half decent premiership team like Villa.

What are the names so far?

Jurgen Klopp
Roberto Martinez
Brendan Rogers
Andre Villa Boas
Martin O Neil
Jose Mourinho
Josep Guardiola
Frank De Boer
Jurgen Klinsmann
Louis Van Gaal
Didier Deschamps
Marcelo Bielsa

That's all? Did I miss any?

i dont understand why they are willing to gamble like this as surely they wouldnt consider replacing their head coach of the sox with some lad who has done well in the little leagues.
unfortunately the lfc we knew has been gone quite a while now and we are in danger from going from a recession to a long period of depression.

Fu'ck off and play with your Ben10 figure

Dragan Stojković would be interesting. He's touted to take over Wenger as they both have similar styles in management and type of play.

Read between the lines people... we ain't getting a big name IMO.

Ian Ayres has pretty much just said that the manager role is going to be more of a coach role.  Basically a Yes Man that will just pick / train the team.
