Just watching Liverpool v Villa - Jesus how can such a big club keep producing such dross week in week out.

I think there is no doubt Mr Sour Face Dalglish will be out on his ear at seasons end - not just for dragging this once great club down but because of the absolute mountain of cash he has wasted on Carroll, Downing and the worst of all Jordan Henderson.

The stat that of the season started 1st January, Liverpool would be 2nd bottom, says it all

It's all good, gives us a good chuckle

And Suarez is a horrible little fucker

To be blunt, Liverpools squad is actually abysmal. I know they do have a few great players, but I watched them agaisnt newcastle the other day on t.v and I couldn't help thinking that if they want success, they are going to have to bring in a shit ton of better players.

Carol 35 million or Cisse 9 million. That's all

Or Ba free?

I'm watching them at the moment and Villa, who are no great shakes themselves, aren't exactly hanging on.

The Yank who owns Liverpool will have no compunction about sacking Dalglish - but he will need to dig deep to fund another entire team I reckon

They wont sack king kenny. Theyll just move him upstairs and replace him with mick mccarthy

Ah, Mick McCarthy - the talking horse

I think it's great when these greedy PL fuckers spend shit loads of money and it all falls apart  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

It's funny that Liverpool fans couldn't believe their luck when 'King Kenny' was appointed, when Hodgson was forced out, yet he had done fuck all since spending Blackburn's money to buy the title. Dalgliah was great at Newcastle and with John Barnes at Celtic !!

Now it's all falling apart...and Hodgson's will be having the last laugh.

anyone other than Kenny and the Liverpool fans would be calling for their head.

they didnt give Hogdson this amount of time.

I think they should bring in John Barnes as manager with McAteer as assistant.

They did so well as a management pair at Tranmere.

Oooh, with those nice white Wembley suits.

Very classy!

Can't stand Dalglish, can't stand Liverpool. Not very keen on Saint Stevie G either or the proffesional Scouse twat Carragher. Happy days.

You don't like anybody, do you?

Not many people, no.

They should have stuck with Woy. Dalglish is living off his past glory.

so is wenger

To a point yes,but not really comparable to the mess at anfield is it

Nah just wanted a bigger bite

Used to really like Galglish as a player but what a miserable sod he has become, he is always on the defensive and even snaps back when someone pays him a compliment.

Alot of people close to him believe the effects of hillsbrough really changed him as a person and also his opinion of the press. I don't like him tbh but can sort of understand that.

He's like Strachan, a cocky fucker who thinks he's a lot cleverer than anyone he's talking to and they should worship the pearls of wisdom thrown sarcasticly their way

Never used to be like that though did he.

I don't know, he's been like it long enough - a total PR disaster zone. The Scousers are as thick as shit though and lap it up. He has found his perfect supports but even that is wearing thin now.

No, cant remember him being like that but he certainly isn't making many friends with his attitude and like chalkie said even the fans that once adored him seem a bit let down by him.

Liverpool = soapy tit wank
I wont say anything more...

Agree with you notts.Should of just been caretaker and left it. The work he has done with the familys in liverpool and various charitys i think has given him that extra time that he doesn't actually deserve.

Ku Klux Kenny

Great player....sad thing is that his actions are that of a man under pressure.
The word is that he didn't touch alcohol as a player....but is drinking shit loads now.

Back to the drawing board for Liverpool i reckon.

He made his bed when he defended Suarez to be fair...

Always thought Dalglish was overrated as a manager.

He took over the best team in the country & kept them winning, but as soon as the team started to get old he left. It was then the job of the next manager to dismantle & rebuild the team.

He had success at Blackburn, but by all accounts the hard work was done by the coach Ray Harford. And they were also the first of the big spenders as we saw to our cost, spending a shit load of cash on Duncan Shearer (for just a few weeks).

Every other job he has had, has ultimately been a disaster.

I think it was last week on MOTD where it was stated that Liverpool's points total this season is their worst at this time of the season for 10 years.

most over-rated supporters in the world.
Glad they are struggling

Couldn't agree more.

I see Dalglish has now resorted to blamimg all the refs for their poor results.

He has to go.

Don't talk about our next manager like that!

We've had enough scousers in authority here to last a fucking lifetime

Ha ha - had enough scouse cunts at this place to last a lifetime.

I used to love to watch the Liverpool of Beardsley, Heighway, Barnes etc.  That was truly great football.  I remember wishing that all the team was English, because they could just play instead of England, and they would be world-beaters. Nothing I've seen from any of the top PL teams now gets anywhere near that level.

The best English club side ever:

1. Clemence
2. Neal
3. A Kennedy
4. Thomson
5. R Kennedy
6. Hansen
7. Dalglish
8. Case
9. Johnson
10. McDermott
11. Souness

FACT!

Really? What about the couple of years before when they had Tommy Smith, Peter Cormack, Kevin Keegan, John Toshack, Steve Heighway, Sammy Lee and David Fairclough on the bench.

Maybe - Just subjective really isn't it? I think a lot of it depends on your age and when you're at your most impressionable so for me personally it has to be that XI.

 :D  Are you and Adje the same people on time delay?

Well we both love Neil Young!

I blame alcohol. I can't remember reading adje's comment before i did mine but I can't rule out being sufficiently pissed, plagiarising and not noticing.

Alan Davies getting loads of shit on twitter for this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=b1XBPA5drFo

Personally, I think he's bang on the money

Totally agree. I saw one tweet where the guy was fuming, saying he was mocking the dead. Not entirely sure what that accusation was based on.

Is it my imagination (probably) or has their latest poor run coincided with the return of 'Stevie G' ?

Why the fuck should Davis get any shit for that whatsoever?? He's absolutely 100% correct (about 15/8 and about Dalglish being a bell end)

They're one of the worst sides in the league since Christmas. Pinning their form on Gerrard is just looking for an excuse to slag off every non-Scouser's favourite scapegoat.

Makes me laugh how Scousers claim to have so much 'togetherness', yet they'd gladly steal from each other at any given opportunity.

I agree with him 100%, spot on.

Didn't realise you were a fan of his, sorry.

Wow. The vitriol on twitter is immense. 

Quite hilarious game tonight involving them.

Had an interesting discussion with a lad at work today regarding Stevie G....

He pointed out that it has always been suggested that Lampard cannot play with Gerrard and for some reason thats Lampards fault.... But no Charlie Adam seems to have lost all footballing ability since being paired with Gerrard - therefore i it Gerrard that is actually the problem?

Don't know (or in fact care) either way, but was an interesting thought

The word is abject.  Shocking performance.  If it was a cricket match you'd be getting the authrities involved to see about betting.  Its like they're desperate to lose.

Fuck me, Andy Carroll scores the winner. Fods would have had that one.

Cunt

Had the scoucers on my bet, thank fuck for that.

In your face cunts.I dislike blackburn more

What is it

So Dalglish's plan worked....

Not a statement that's heard very often!

He's right.
Liverpool dont have a memorial day for the Heysel disaster do they?  is that because it was the acts of Liverpool fans that day caused that particular disaster? Never hear anything about Heysel

I know really it was the Police/Security who caused Hillsborough, and I'm probably going to get slated to fuck for this, but surely some of the blame has to be on Liverpool fans?

Liverpool, Sheff Utd, Barca, AC Milan

You're right.




You're going to get slated to fuck.

Wouldn't expect anything less from you charming fellows  :)

At risk of getting into a debate the whole blaming the fans at liverpool over hillsbrough annoys me and it annoys me more when people mock them for wanting justice. It was a massive disaster that the press took the piss out of and rightly justice is sought. As for heysel they do have a permanent memorial.

And it returned..?  :D Congrats btw

Ta, only £60 from a tenner.

You are quite right, there were thousands of coppers at the back forcing Liverpool fans onto the terrace crushing the fans at the front.

Whilst the police, the FA & the TV companies all share some of the blame for various other reasons the fans that were actually doing the pushing from the back are completely blameless.

And FWIW isn't there a memorial at Anfield for the victims?

The same Liverpool fans that still sing about the Munich Air Disaster?

Got to laugh at the keyboard warriors who dished out death threats to him, who will now hear from the Met Police.

Is that a wind up posh? I do hope so.

Too many ticketless supporters forced their way into the ground I thought

It was Partly, as everyone knows & accepts that there were major mistakes by the authorities, and that the fans that lost their lives were innocent.

However, there is no getting away from the fact that the crush was caused by fans (most if not all with tickets) trying to push their way in because the game had started without them.  I don't believe that the Liverpool fans acted an differently than any other fans would have done, but ultimately it is them that caused the pressure which led to those innocent being killed.

The problem is that fans of Liverpool won't accept that they did anything to cause the problem, it does seem to be the way with Liverpool that it's always someone else's fault.

The biggest problem with the Police was the way they tried to deal with the situation when it happened, and probably worse cover up their mistakes afterwards.

What is without question, is that the reporting afterwards was shocking. Particularly by the Sun but also by many other media outlets.

I don't like Alan Davies particularly, but he's right. If Liverpool refuse to play on April 15th, they forfeit the game, it's ridiculous.

There is something slightly grotesque about's Liverpool's morbid "ownership" of tragedy. Boris Johnson said the unsayable.

Please can we not do this all over again:

Will fall on deaf ears.I am all for disliking teams but havn't got it in me to dislike a teams fans over the way they decide to grieve.

they've appealed Doni's red card, seems a bit optimistic. i wonder if there will be a 1 game extension...

Well they've got nothing to lose. If it's overturned, Doni can play in the semis, who I guess is more highly rated than Brad Jones.
If not, well there may be a 1 game extension, but Reina will come back before he will anyway.

Gary Ablett's family will be at Wembley to watch the semi-final.

Gary's autobiography 'The Game of my life'  is also released on monday.

His family have released a photo of Gary and some details of the treatment that he faced during his illness.Poor bloke.

RIP Gary.

Would this be the same report that did not blame ticketless fans:


And

By the time of the tragedy more than enough was known by the police about how to control large crowds.  They got it wrong and compounded their mistakes by trying to blame others.    Some Liverpudlians have a tendency to a certain mawkishness.   I think Liverpool and Newcastle suffer from getting far too emotional about their teams. It makes them fail to see what's happening.    But, in the end, it's easy to judge from afar isn't it?
