I say, steady on, Milk
A friend of mine's cousin started supporting Yernited some years ago because he was fed up with us winning **** all and he did that rather than support everton. He came to her house one day in a Yernited shirt. What stopped me punching him was me being a lady.

It was a joke. But I knew a fan who switched from Everton to Spurs in high school and several who switched from Everton to United.
That said. It would be hard supporting Liverpool with Pulis in charge. Roy has destroyed England for me. Don't want Pulis to take Liverpool from me.

Sorry mate but that's a load of rubbish. Speaking for myself, I've never been convinced by Rodgers from the minute he was appointed up to now, my opinion hasn't changed and there's plenty on here who hold the same view.Six year contract on the back of Suarez good season, all on here were delighted and singing his praises. Every other teams supporters told them who was responsible for the good season, but they laughed and said we all feared them, the penny drops slow on here
Brendan "is answerable to the committee"

So you can't sing the praises of a team that is doing well including the manager? That's the very point of football D. It's about this years performances and nothing else if you want your club to be the elite. So that year praise on everyone . Last year criticism on everyone..this year we'll see.
As JB said there was plenty on here doubted the man's abilities. Others accepted him as the young inexperienced manager he was but hoped that the clearly evident enthusiasm would see him develop to the required level quickly.
It doesn't look like its going to happen at this point but I like the idea we tried someone young in comparison to a man with an entire careers experience of mediocrity out for the next stint...which is the all to familiar manager merrigoround that is the modern game.

Let's be honest. BR's success came in one half of one season, when with arguably the best striker in the world at that time was on fire and we put together a winning streak DESPITE conceding like amateurs. If you want to be big, you have to think big. Big names attract big names.......and you can do a lot with experience....just ask Leicester! ;-)
Time to get shot asap. We should be all over Klopp right now and make him an offer he can't refuse. Unfortunately, I fear that ship has sailed.

The new deal was signed in May 2014 and runs until 2018. Six years?

I agree with all of this except for the part about us going for a young inexperienced man. I don't think a club the size, stature and expectation of ours is the place for a young inexperienced manager. Rodgers needed to stay where he was for at least one more season having got Swansea into top flight then move on to maybe Villa or Everton [big clubs but far less expectation] before taking the next step up.

Only going off what I thought I remembered from the news sites at the time
I'm not saying you make it policy but I like that we tried it at the position we were in 3 years ago. If it's failed fine. But as I've said before lots naming Klopp as an example and he too was a young untested manager before his success. It's hindsight now.
As opposed to the Moyes, Rednapp Alderdice etc etc. Would having a top class manager have kept Suarez? It's conjecture unfortunately but I don't think so.
I thing we have a decent if not dazzling squad now in comparison so if BR fails we might attract the higher calibre manager..
I'm not defeatist but I also don't think our glorious history/stature is quite as big to pros in the game as it is with us fans..
Either way it comes back to a better transfer strategy from here on in. We may have the 7th most expensive squad in the world but the reality is our players aren't on even close to the wages others are on and that is the only thing that's going to attract WC players these days if we can't show them a modern day filled trophy room.
Oh, I see. Chuckle.
Spot on. Had he been given more experience maybe we could have been looking at him in the future, but he simply wasn't ready for us and still isn't.
No disrespect to Swansea, they've done bloody well since their promotion, but we are Liverpool FC. I'm sorry if that sounds arrogant, but it's true. We shouldn't have been landed with their manager, we should have gone for a bigger name with trophies behind him and I still don't get why we didn't push for Guardiola (though I know about the year out thing) or someone else as prominent at the time. FSG plumped for an unknown, untested, untried, up-and-coming manager after sacking Dalglish, who won us a trophy that time round, but frankly, what do they honestly know? Now it's come back to bite us on the arse. Rodgers had no pedigree. People can argue about Ferguson and Shankly's tenure all they like but it's a different ball game now. All he can do now is add Liverpool FC Manager to his CV and that's it. It probably won't get him work with a big club because what it is he's actually won? **** all.
I respect your view mate but if anything 3 years ago we had a much better manager already in Dalglish - ok he'd been out of management a long time and there's no point going back to do if's and maybe's but his replacement should have been an exciting manager not an even riskier one than our [out of touch] Legend. The history and stature is big with us fans and still is with players out there but unless we start winning things again we won't attract the big names.
