LEGEND
That's by a well known poster called ManUFanBaby, who used to go by the name DennisFranz before his account was banned. He's almost always the first to post on a match thread involving either Liverpool or United as soon as they open, which tends to get under the skin of the Liverpool supporters there. It's not a stretch to say the Guardian attracts a higher class of troll, which makes for great reading on the post-match threads.Guardian comment section for the game last night:
Their overrating of Sakho is hysterical. He's been shit again, absolute donkey on the ball and left Naismith with 5 yards of space from a free kick.
Followed by
Brendan Rodgers sacked
Get quoting RedCafe people. Get quoting.
They'll be delighted.
It doesn't matter what the emotional state that forum is in. There stilll idiots saying idiot things.
tbh, I'm really looking forward to the inevitable poem about how Brendan dared them to dream again. Neva4get xx

Bit thin in here, isn't it? I thought their mods said, once he's sacked, the gloves are off.

Can we give this shit a rest?
We didn't have stability. One man does not equal stability when everyone around him was being replaced. We had a squad turnover of over 13 players between two summers. We sacked and replaced key backroom staff. We lost a club legend, a young talent, and lost our striking talisman to injury. Stability has been nowhere to be found for the past 12 months. Some of that is down to our manager, some of that isn't. Pretending that keeping a manager who is struggling = stability is disingenuous. Far more goes into it than that.
Let's cut out the fecking supporter to supporter sniping for once. We're all here for the same reason. The dickheads will always be dickheads, the loyal will always be loyal. At the end of the day what unites us is a love for the club.
The posters on RAWK didn't get Brendan sacked. Hell, the whoppers leaving early or booing maybe played a small part but at the end of the day I doubt they got him sacked either. The players who gave up on him and our season when we got tanked 6-1 could have got him sacked at the end of last season.
FSG met with Rodgers and presumably outlined their expectations and Brendan signed up for the transfer kitty, the revamped backroom staff, and being the confident and talented man that he is will have set out to meet them. By today's evidence, whatever they discussed that day was not met up to this point. Have they pulled the trigger too early, given what transpired in the summer? That answer depends on where you stand. Probably. But it's done. FSG did it, Ayre did it, and the players didn't help. It wasn't the supporters. We matter a hell of a lot less than you think we do.
If you're disillusioned by their actions then you ought to have a rethink about supporting the club. Face it pal, they own it. We're just along for the ride because we can't help our love.
The best we can do is unite as a fanbase behind whoever the new man is and support him as best we can. Yes there will be dickheads and there always will be dickheads. But they don't control proceedings on the pitch and they don't have a say in boardroom decisions. Nor do we. But we can get behind the team and the club because we'll be around when managers, players, and even these owners have gone. So let's not take it out on each other, eh?

All this fake sadness. Bring on the new manager before I puke.

Has there even been a manager who was so close to a title, been thanked for his services, 7 games later in the next season ?
You mean two seasons later.
Oh correct, a bit lost there in years.
That feeling when you realise you just skipped a year of life.

Di Matteo won the Champions League with Chelsea and was sacked the following season on 21st November.
Roman.
The Aldi
That's actually a very good post.

He'll come back as soon as his 10000 simulations of the rest of Liverpool's season with Klopp as manager and Sturridge staying fit are done.
Hey Jurg, don't be afraid
To kick Mourhino in the bollocks
The minute the Kop gets under your skin
You become ours forever and ever
And anytime you feel the urge, hey Jurg, be sure
To go all out with psycho staring
Hug the team like they're rag dolls and slap their gobs
And have Sky Sports hyperventilating
nein nein nein nein, nein nein nein nein

Well that was fecking dreadful
It was forty months ago today
Brendan Rodgers taught the team to play
They've been going in and out of Europe
And I'm f*cked if anything rhymes with that
