LOL ... "given time, Liverpool can play like Swansea". Nice to see him managing expectation .... no Champions League place then Buck, just give want the scouse board/fans to allow time to play like us?
Swim, I've put this on the puddle board as well , just waiting for the response where's Nob In Red when you need him?
The level of bitterness on this board is truly even giving Everton fans a run for their money. He's not your Manager anymore so why are you interested in anything he says? It has zero effect on your club, so it can only be some type of biter obesession because he left you for us. Just move on, its smalltime and your meant to be a big club now.
Bitter .... no just ****ing angry at his toxic bile that emits from his mouth (after we bought into it). He gives Blair a run for his money. If you don't want to believe us, ask Watford fans. Now piss off
Toela,"bitterness" is the wrong word. Think more along the lines of deep rooted disappointment,the kind you get when you feel you've been used. You may get to experience it should Rodgers actually perform a miracle and get Liverpool playing like Swansea. Then maybe one of the REALLY big Clubs will come after him,viz,Manchester City;Manchester United;Chelsea;Arsenal,etc.,etc. "Just move on",is what most Swansea fans have done,but the odd one or two are taking a bit longer. Liverpool F.C. is a much respected Club,but Rodgers has tarnished it somewhat in the eyes of many football followers. Why would Everton fans' be bitter towards your team? They are the top Merseyside team, finishing above you last season. Or did I dream that? Evidently,the bitterness is surely all yours. Really sad how such a magnificent Club under Shankly and Paisley has become the poor neighbour. With regards your accusation of "obsession",that's a bite ripe coming from someone who has practically lived on the Swansea Forum in recent weeks. Still,no self respecting follower of football will begrudge you the opportunity to improve yourself. You are welcome here,but just remember that as a visitor,you have an obligation to behave in a civilised manner. Just think Shankly and Paisley,and you'll be fine.
Some Swans fans just aren't able to move on. It's always the same. They hated Martinez for years, then they hated Trundle and now the hate Rodgers. And most still hate Cardiff. They just aren't capable of focusing on their own team. To all Swans fans - just support your team. Forget about Rodgers, et al. Why are you so obsessed with other teams/managers?
I kinda agree with Casual! We all know Rodgers has turned out to be a w@nker of ginormous proportions. We all know what he said he would and wouldn't do and his word has turned out to be as strong as balsa wood. I just want to forget about him - let it go guys - at least until he comes back to visit.
So Cardiff fan is now saying we should all start to have a live in with his team. Brendan Rodgers has turned out to be a complete ****er. This agreement has been broken in no time at all. Can't see Shankley and Paisley ever behaving like this. If Joe is going then the sooner the better now this has been dragging on for weeks and also Cardiff fan will go away for a while too.
I'm kind of split on this. On the one hand this is a manager that delivered Prem football to our Club and kept us up in style. That, my friends is a fact whether we like it or not. But implying that he was the architect of our style of play is almost laughable. Martinez was the main man in that regard imo and Rodgers only refined that (and it was Sousa that sorted us out defensively remember). I still say his signing of Sinclair was the main catalyst in our promotion and he deserves credit for that. But now I feel completely let down by him, not because he left but because his word apparently means very little. So disappointing, and yes it's made me angry. He's coming across as a rather ruthless guy full of Irish blarney, saying the right things at the right time to anyone willing to listen. Even the media have cottoned on and have used the term "Rodgers soundbites" a few times. So he's a bullshitter extraordinaire it seems, and he's proved me wrong and others right on this board. But I'm also cheesed off with fixating on him so much. We have made an exciting appointment in Laudrup that fans of other clubs have referred to as a 'real coup'. He's made some great signings at bargain prices already and I'm loving what I've seen so far. We have so much to be optimistic about right now and I for one prefer to concentrate on that. Just remember, the manager of one of the world's great clubs has publicly stated that it will "take time to get this team playing like Swansea". Now that makes me smile.
What's that all about Crack? Why the personal attack? I'm just quoting our erstwhile manager to educate certain visitors to our board , who seem to think that our team is of little or no consequence. So this coming from their manager must be like a dagger in the ol' vitals What's the saying about imitation ? No, I look to the future one which I fervently believe will see Swansea climb higher and higher, that's why I and my family invest every year in season tickets and have done so,and in my personal case,for over thirty five years. That's why I want the best for my club , and if that includes certain players leaving well so be it! Anything else you'd like to discuss?
Just love this. He's been here for the last fortnight pretending to have the inside track on the deal and trying to rub our noses in it that he's going and for less than £15million..... Here he is telling me to feck off back to my own board; http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/159709-Rodgers-Transfer-Update/page7 Have I ever told you to **** off back to scouseland Toela? Would never do that. I find your ignorance entertaining if anything. If you can't take it don't give it out. You just look ridiculous. Of course we are interested, he is saying he wants you to play like Swansea but needs different players to do so....and he's circling our players. Can you point me to one Swansea fan trying to tell the scousers what they may discuss on their own board? You arrogant ****ing twat.
Everyone has there reasons for saying " And the bull**** keeps flowing " & for me it's the abuse Gower has taken after being one of the most started players since we crawled out of League 1 . Was a general statement for me , not directed at you Don'tpassit ... sorry if it seemed that way , well unless you're one of the abusers . There's been so many , I have trouble keeping track . I feel a bit sad knowing that this opportunity creating machine that led the team in the Premier in assists in only 14 starts is getting quite a few swift kicks in the arse as he probably walks out the door after 4 seasons of excellence . Again sorry , wasn't meant for anyone personally , just my idea of general BS !
And you've been laughed off like the idiot you are So bitter. He's making a harmless and completely correct comment on how all managers take time to implement their system. This happens at EVERY club EVERY time they change manager! Also, this is the actual quote:
Well one thing I'll looking forward is the season starting, all this speculation whether Joe goes or not ,whether rodgers is a sucess or not is turning this into a mini Liverpool board , I hope all the goings on doesn't create an atmosphere of dislike between the two clubs . rodgers gone and has to live or die by his decisions’ which as long as he doesn't come back for more of our players won't affect us
