an extremely annoying one at that.

shame on ya lakes for defiling a thread with those images 

You're friends with a lot of mums, lakes.

Sorry to say I am of an age now where a lot of the mums I know I went to school with.....some of them are even nans now.....no Rooney jokes ok lol
On the plus side .being this age means I stood in the kop the last time we won the league lol

and for our younger viewers... you used to be able to stand on the kop back in the day, no plastic seats to get in the way back then. And after the game you still had a few pence left for a bag of chips and a tin of tizer.

there was a great guy that worked in the chip shop, we got to the game hours before the start and he was not open, we sat outside and he opened the door and gave us free cans of coke.

For what it's worth... and to get back on topic just a tad... 

Brendan Rogers is slowly winning me over. Like a few have mentioned before, I do wish he was not as "media friendly" as he is.... still tends to say a little too much when results on the field have not yet been backed up.

I love the fact that he has enough courage of conviction to pursue with his prefered method of playing but has also shown the willingness to adapt a little when situations demand it. I did think that he wrote off big Andy a little too soon. We could have dearly used him (when he wasn't injured) against some of the more physical mid to bottom table sides when our midfield and forwards were getting lumps kicked off of them. In those situations, until we have the team to pass these sides into oblivion and negate their pressing and physical methods, a more direct route with a big CF to put the fear of god into them would have been much better. You have to work with the tools you got and until you build a world class workshop with top of the line tools, you cannot adopt world class processes with tools made from China.

Patience is often the key. You cannot get a car to perfom like a Porsche if the majority of the parts available to you were made by Rover. If you tried, you'd fail badly. I think, knowing full well that funds were limited, he should have made the best use of the people available and use them to their strengths. We were and are not Chelsea or Man City where we have unlimited funds to just buy the players to suit the system you want to play. We would have been better off to take it one step and a time and slowly mould the team to how you wanted them to play. The team under Dalglish was good enough to win a domestic trophy and get to the final of the other... but we were inconsistent in the league.

We should have built on that. But slowly, this team is now being  built in his image and hopefully we will be better off this year. In fact, I have faith that it will as I feel he has learnt from his mistakes. This season, with a little bit more reinforcement, we will be ok...... Suarez issue notwithstanding.

the only real concern i have about rodgers is that i`m not convinced he`s the best in the transfer market.
