The abuse Woy got from their fans was disgusting. Whatever people think about Hodgson, he is an honourable man and deserved far better treatment and respect than what he got. Yet, a year later, along comes the knob called Dalglish with all the charm and humour of a rattlesnake, and he somehow survives all their current mediocrity.

I really don't get it.

Seems odd that teams with supposedly the best fans in the business reserve such vitriol for managers who have not played for them and have a massive blind spot for those that have. The Toon were exactly the same with Keegan.

On the whole though, I agree with the others. I hope he stays there for years.

Every time they are on TV, the cameras show all the ex-players sitting in their freeby seats and casting their evil eyes on what is happening on the pitch in front of them, You know who I mean - Hansen, Lawrenson, Rush etc. Except thiss time they can't slag the manger off because he's their chum and golfing mate.

I was all set to applaud John Aldridge this week, when he seemingly broke ranks and slaughtered Queen Kenny and the team. That was until I remembered Aldridge was on Sky's Goals On Sunday programme on the day of the Carling Cup final and moaning about how the club didn't give him and Jason McAteer a free cup final ticket.

Muppets and hanger -ons the lot of them.
 
Woy was also the manager when Liverpool had all sorts of problems off the field. So it was anything but stable. Hope he gets his revenge when West Brom face Liverpool at Anfield.

I can't imagine that washes with the Yanks. When your golfing buddies can buy and sell Liverpool hangers on and all, with what they find down the back of the sofa, I guess your point of view is a little different.

The problem is the Old Boys Network have a prominent media presence, and there is the worry that sacking Dalglish will be roundly criticised - similar can be said for Wenger, with Dixon and Keown regularly appearing on punditry panels.
 
Well City must win today to do us a favour.

I'm hoping Fulham can beat Chelsea on Monday too - Chelsea did not deserve to win yesterday so a bit of justice for their team wouldn't go amiss.
 
Just seen the highlights of the Chavs game again
Not only the disgraceful officiating around the goals, but wondering if Ivanovic will face retrospective punishment for punching the Wigan player in the back just before the Chavs went up the other end to snatch an undeserved winner?
Pretty blatant it seems so will be interesting to see whether big club syndrome prevails and he gets away with it.....

Looks like a cut and dried 3 game ban to me.

Michael Moore could do worse than a documentary shattering the many, many myths about Liverpool. Start with the fact they stole Everton's ground, and continue through their fans' charming habit of gatecrashing European finals without valid tickets - and those are the ones trying to get in with at least some form of ticket to begin with - and continue through the fans, players and manager showing public support for a racist...something that Chelsea were quick to nip in the bud when Lampard et al suggested wearing shirts in support for John Terry.

Well, as Ivanovic is one of the only bright spots for the Chavs these days, then surely it's in our combined interest to raise the profile as much as possible and make the FA's decision for them!! :emoticon-0136-giggl:

****ing bullshit. Young was offside, dived to the floor under minimal contact. Penalty, red card, 1-0.

Incredible - happens time and time again!!
Offside, no contact. Young should have been booked for simulation!!

Doesn't just happen to us then?
