Why would you need to tell a newspaper that it was your team who won in Istanbul? The same squad who finished with 60 points 12 months earlier? Good luck at Villa Gerard I think you'll need it......

Wrong Houllier wasn't sacked, in fact Liverpool FC have never sacked a manager.

Houllier (and Benitez) left of mutual consent.

Similarly, when you state the fact that Roy has won his domestic title seven times, it's not an opinion, it's a fact. Now when these people say "ah but it doesn't count because Sweden is a sh!t league" I don't get all hot and bothered about it, I don't give a flying feck to be totally honest .

All indisputable facts Mick ...so I fail to see how anyone could manufacture a valid argument to substantiate their counter claims
and therein lies the problem ....people invariably do.... even when they know they are wrong ...
My question is if you believe you are correct, and have stated your beliefs for the forum to read ,If you trust in your strength of conviction then why is it so essential the posters who in your own words would deny the sky was blue believe also .....
and that's exactly what's at the root of the forums problems lately
Everyone should be behind the team and the manager ,that fact is indisputable... ok we can debate about the intricacies of management we can wax lyrical about players, or we can cast doubts on their abilities ...we can dispute the nuances of substitutions ,and the precise time to make such interventions, we can discuss formations and why we feel one would be more advantageous than the next ....we can discuss all this Mick and more and still be equally fanatical in our support
I was just simply saying so in my original post ..... but it seems it  gave the wrong impression

Well that time I can't disagree because you are right  .
