Its pretty fúcking ironic that while United fans here were using the Hillsborough and Hodgson thread as a stick to beat Liverpool fans it in fact turns out that it was a bunch of hackers, probably United fans, intent on smearing Liverpool fans!! Ironic posts are ironic.

Again this is in stark contrast to many Liverpool supporters on this board (not all but many), who are nestled safely in their blissful cocoon of ignorance, more interested in seeing a good man fail than actually getting behind the team they claim to follow. Why not grow up and stop thinking you have a divine right to win based on what was done in the past. History is bunk.

The irony is that these 'followers' (more trend followers than team followers if you ask me) claim that Hodgson has lost credibility when in fact it is rather their own claims to have Liverpool's best interests at heart which have lost credibility.

Hodgson will no doubt be sacked in due course but the man will come out of it with his dignity in tact whereas the same cannot be said for the lynch mob. No doubt this will go over many heads and will be met with either rolleyes smilies, some stupid internet slang phrase, maybe a picture of a cat, anything to avoid dealing with the real issue - the trumped up players just haven't pulled their weight.

What a load of tosh.

Hodgson's dignity intact? Having a go at fans. Retraction. Having a go at individual players. Retraction. Having a go at Rafa. Retraction.

It's not a lynch mob. Almost (there are, of course, exceptions) all Liverpool fans have the long-term interests of the club at heart. It became quite clear early in his reign that Hodgson was incompatible with those interests. Since then, most fans have been praying for the day he leaves.

It's not about thinking we have a right to win. We know we've won f*ck all in 20 years. We could take several more years with no success if the club was moving in the right direction, with a man at the helm who had a clue what he was doing.

His signings have been shocking. His tactics have been terribly defensive, one-dimensional and archaic. He never changes tactics when things are going wrong.

He has won 1 of his last 28 away premier league games. That is simply incompetence.

Yes, three-quarters of our squad have to go. But before we even think about that we need someone in charge to give us some direction. Then the fans will be behind them.

I would not mind us being 12th in the league this season if the manager had been blooding young players, trying new tactics or whatever. It's being 12th in the league, playing the most horrible football in league with seemingly no improvement in sight.

Ah well as long as you said probably, then it was definitely them.Maybe it was the owner of the account all along ?
And RAWK got served by the police by allowing his personal details to be posted on their site and are offering a blame it on the manc hackorz excuse to divert the knobs who actually believe what they read type....

See what i did there ?

Who gives a fook who typed it, the bigger problem is some guy will probably get his house bricked by some tards who are not meant to buy the sun but believe the sun type headlines that forum produces....

Ironic fans are ironic.... :rolleyes:

bamboozling · 07-01-2011 11:22PM

Well the post was up on RAWK for a minute or so yet screenshots appeared on Red Cafe within minutes? A lucky coincidence? I think not.

He had a go at fans who he thought were not behaving like supporters. Maybe he has been reading a lot of the posts on the internet or listening to some of the OTT phone-in shows and if so, I think his comments are reasonable in the circumstances.

It has been a lynch mob in my opinion. Today on Sky Sports News Sir Alex and Arsene Wenger hit out at the way managers are treated these days, Wenger specifically referenced Hodgson and noted the craziness of a man who was praised by all quarters last season (including Liverpool fans) and yet after a few months into the league there is a demand for his head. He noted the importance of stability. These are arguably the two best coaches in the league, certainly two of the best in the world, and you can add them to the list of many of Liverpool's ex-players who have refused to call for his head. Are all these people wrong? Are the impatient fans on the net who rage because Wolves and Blackburn players actually have the audacity to try and win the game, unlike most of Liverpool's lot, correct in their vitriol?

There was a time a month or more back when the results for Liverpool did pick up and I recall the response of many on this board was, 'well I still think he's wrong for the job but if he gets results I won't complain' - in other words, I will wait for the guy to have a dip in form and then start trashing him again. That is not supporting your team in anyone's book. You must admit that there has been a notable element that have wanted him out since day one and who have been quick to seize on any bad moments. Of course it has not been a great start for Liverpool but it is not all his fault and the season is far, far from over, and that is what many are pointing out and what the impatient lynch mob just won't take on board.

The players are a joke this season. But then, what's the point of having a manager. He has to inspire, motivate, have a plan. Shape a team. Hodgson is not doing that. I'm not getting into this. This isn't the thread for it anyway.

But yeah, Liverpool one nil. Hodgson gets the sack. That would be a great Sunday!

Playing in front of 45,000 fans should give you that motivation and inspiration.

Hodgson just has employed rubbish tactics with a poor Liverpool squad.

Mod Hat On

Folks this is the match thread you know for talking about the match.This is not a Hodgson in/out thread.

shadowcomplex,I deleted your post.It came after my above warning and does nothing to help this thread.This is going to be a difficult thread without each group of fans taken pop shoots at each other before the match.

Just once we're not hammered I'll be okay. It's hard to predict how these games will go, especially at Old Trafford. Can Roy pull off a shock on the level of Rafa at Old Trafford in the 08/09 season? :pac:

Leiva · 08-01-2011 09:09AM

I smell a draw

The match was called off due to flooded pitch, that's what I remember anway

This won't be a walkover, something tells me Liverpool will pull something off. Hope I'm wrong!

I wouldn't rule out Liverpool getting a result on Sunday, tbh I'm more confident of that happening than getting a result at Blackpool 3 days later. Funny that.

Mister men · 08-01-2011 09:30AM

I badly want us to win here but reality tells me otherwise. The only thing that gives me confidence is the rumour that Hodgson has said his goodbyes and this is his last game at the helm. That in itself should give the players a lift. My prediction 3-1 to the plastic reds.;)

Dues Bellator · 08-01-2011 11:30AM

uh oh Kenny dog-leash is manager till end of season . fergie will be quaken in his boots imo .how long is he out of football now. you have to laugh.

Handsome Bob · 08-01-2011 11:31AM

My interest in this game has now exploded.

That_Guy · 08-01-2011 11:32AM

They'll still lose I reckon. Liverpool that is.

.....
Kenny Dalglish's last game in charge of Liverpool was also in the FA Cup. A classic 4-4 draw with Everton in February 1991.
