I am not wearing "beer goggles", or "rose tinted spectacles" as I am not so stupid to see that all is not well and mistakes have been made. I am willing to give the current owners and manager one more season to sort things out on and off the pitch, then I will make my mind up as to whether they are capable. I could easily be a moaner and gripe about every single aspect of our failure not only by Rodgers, but also by previous managers right back to Paisley. I wont though, because Im an optimist and I have a gut feeling that we are on the right track. Its taking longer than I would like, but sometimes that happens? Shankly took years to get us back in the first division, and I think we are going through a similar situation now by trying to get back into the top tier of clubs.
Yes I am concerned that Suarez wasnt replaced, but only Ronaldo or Messi could have done the job he did? Yes I am not happy that we only have Borini and Lambert as cover for Sturridge, but the players we wanted wouldnt come here? Is that down to the manager, or the owners? Possibly, but thats the way it goes, and if LFC isnt as big an attraction as chelsea or arsenal then we have to accept it and move on.
Call me a weirdo, but I believe its our destiny to be great again. With or without Rodgers, who knows? But I certainly dont advocate swapping and changing managers every couple of years because therein lies instability and mediocrity, or even relegation...?

This is why I almost never participate in these pointless flamewars, because of arguments like this one.
Seriously lad? How about Rafa brings Philip Degen and Andrea Dossena, Kenny brings Charlie Adam and Andy Carroll and Brendan brings Coutinho and Sturridge. Flawless logic really.

Lets go with what weve got, see what happens in the summer and if we havent improved, then start looking for a new manager

how many of the haters are now big enough to hold their hands up and say that, european competition apart, the manager has been doing a superb job?

I imagine that's how it will go. I didn't like BR at first but found myself encouraged after last season. I'm afraid that all evaporated very quickly this season though. I can't see any hope with him at the helm. I won't write an essay. It's all in this thread, covered a million times or more, but a club of our level needs a complete manager, and BR, in my opinion, lacks many aspects of that. I'd have been more hopeful if he looked to be learning. But he seems clueless to me. There is loyalty and then there's stupidity. Don't back a three legged horse, even if you love it.

Fair play he got it spot on today but I do notice you're very quiet when he gets it wrong like last Thursday
