ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[Boss_Blue]

I'm finding it very hard to post on this thread lately. When I found out it existed I was overjoyed. Pretty sure I made that clear at the time too. Now? I'm deflated by the whole thing. I want to rip them a new one every second of the day, but I feel it would be vitriol for the sake of it. I'm always too late when something good about 'em has been posted. As much as I try to say something interesting about them it's always a total rant about how I cannot stand them for love nor money. Not sure why I'm telling you all this though. I just feel the need too. God, I hope I haven't lost the will to [Poor language removed] off the RS. Perhaps something beautiful will happen again soon, (losing to Newcastle was good like). I should perhaps go see a priest. I feel as though my faith is being questioned. Or maybe that's just cos my internet went down today during our game. I'll get over it. Until then I hope they all rot. All the best fellow Blues...

Cant get over that: "transition". PMSL. Even the cult are taking the piss out of the no mark over it.

He is right though.

They are in transition.

From being a team which looked long odds on to be champions at Easter to mid table mediocrity in November

Interesting article about Suarez's new book here. This stood out:

Suárez remembers sending a text to Kenny Dalglish after he had been sacked as manager (partly, many feel, because of the way he had handled the fall-out of the Evra case). Suárez’s message thanked him for his support. Dalglish sent one back and the words jump off the page: “Don’t ever change”.

has he really spent that much ? I know they've p!ssed money up the wall but that's a very big number

Well not Brenda alone, Since the 10/11 window. Go back another year to 09/10 and it becomes £426,000,000. Just on reported fees.

You spend half a billion £ on players over 4 years and this is the result. They should have just give that money to James Cameron and got him to make the trilogy instead.

Mental as that is, United have spent over a quarter of a billion since January of last year lol

When they play each other next month it might well be the most expensive mid table clash in history.

And to think . For a couple of quid more , they could have won the league last year

 

[Coach]

Come second + lose one player = transition time

Great management.

I won't be surprised if that match is Brent's last in charge of the RS. A very proper tonking against United (as I expect, I can honestly see United winning that by four or five) will be too much for them to take.

Just as a matter of interest....if he was fired that day would he go down in history as the first RS manager, excluding caretakers, never to lose a derby?
