I'm not sure if the fans are the issue. If the owners aren't happy then he's gone. The fans were right behind the Kong and he still went.
All Rodgers is, is a front man. He has handed the owners his testes on a platter. I bet he's spending the compensation for dismissal already.
What I meant was that Kenny, as much of a club legend as he was and still is, was not a good manager last season, and has probably been out of the game too long to be an effective manager. The issue with Kenny was just that he wasn't good enough in the league. A lot of our fans can't see past that and still think Dalglish is the only man for us and will oppose anyone given the job who isn't a big name like Mourinho, Guardiola (which isn't even slightly realistic anyway). Already people have started comparing our owners now to Hicks and Gillett based on one unpopular sacking which, from their point of view, was in the club's best interest whereas Hicks and Gillett didn't act in the club's best interest at all. The worry for me is that people will be too strongly against Rodgers to see his positives and we'll end up exactly where we where when we sacked Benitez.
