Not liking what I am hearing on SSN at all, they've said brendan will get more time and the meeting was positive. Literally the worst news possible. Eds you have to do something haha. If this is the case the club is doomed for failure
1.) 02 Jun 2015 17:08:42
Thought the meeting was tomorrow
2.) 02 Jun 2015 17:09:44
Time to support the club in whatever decision they make.
3.) 02 Jun 2015 17:10:44
Wasn't Werner supposed to land today and meet Rodgers tomorrow?I won't believe a thing the papers say. All evidence points towards the fact that Rodgers is going to be future endeavoured.
4.) 02 Jun 2015 17:18:46
Wasn´t it what most of us expected?
I think the owners see it like Rodgers deserves another chance because of what the team achieved last season. He will be kept on a short leash, and if doesn´t perform at the start of next season, then I wouldn´t be surprised if he was sacked - that is, if there are any managers available (perhaps Klopp?)
5.) 02 Jun 2015 17:24:23
i will support the club, but not BR, he will only bring more faliure and mediocrity and i will not accept that anymore. Enjoy the awful next season if BR stays but i serisously won't spend another dime. While Brendans in am out. Done, finito.
6.) 02 Jun 2015 17:25:33
Assuming he is staying he must get some new back room staff.There was obviously something terribly wrong last season and I do not think Rodgers has the ability to put it right.
7.) 02 Jun 2015 17:36:39
Reetred time to get your head around Rodgers being our manager next season. Time to support the club kid.
8.) 02 Jun 2015 17:44:00
Additional failures required, apparently. Never been one to criticize the owners, but this seems a poor decision. Then again, they've been pretty shocking with appointments themselves, so I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.
9.) 02 Jun 2015 18:00:22
Mighty
I'll support the club always but never that man. And I won't believe a thing until fsg put out a statement or hw eds say something on the matter
10.) 02 Jun 2015 18:11:06
The club is not the prob, the manager is hence we will always support the club. No official statement yet so we`ll see BUT if he is indeed kept then, it`s the owners` funeral, IMO.
11.) 02 Jun 2015 18:18:15
In disgusted with this news if true. It goes to show how much these owners listen to the fans. Every website and poll I've seen in the last month or so has "Rodgers to be sacked" with massive majorities. Rodgers has failed in every target set out by the club and himself. Are the owners now saying we have to accept failure and mediocrity? i'm pretty sure that another season under Rodgers will achieve just that. I, for one, am gutted.
12.) 02 Jun 2015 18:36:28
Redohio
Seems we're the only ones not falling into this media frenzy 😉
13.) 02 Jun 2015 18:36:58
Lol "the owners funeral".
Bit strong that Ohio, be careful what you post.
14.) 02 Jun 2015 18:51:50
If this is true, some of those players will be gutted to see him stay and Lucas will be gone w/ Allen as his replacement. Sahko will be gone and Can will continue to play CB whereas he is not a CB. Oh and if Lucas goes, Couts will not be too far behind. The defence will still not get fixed and the list goes on. FSG has screwed up, big time and I guess I was wrong about them not tolerating mediocrity and failure. Like the Eds said from the outset, "this will end in tears" for our club
15.) 02 Jun 2015 19:11:39
I'm amazed if this is true. In most jobs you would be fired for missing your targets by miles. The owners needed to be decisive and make the change now for the good of the club and their investment. Another season like last could be a real issue for the owners financially.
I hope what I'm hearing is wrong because if it's true I fear for the clubs future. I'm with reetred and will always support the club but can't support BR as he's out of his depth.
16.) 02 Jun 2015 19:16:01
Football is a game of statistics. Rodgers doesn't win titles.
17.) 02 Jun 2015 19:17:22
RK, I said they would feel the wrath of many of the fans and we can see it here already. Clearly, supporting a proven failure is your idea of being an LFC fan. I would understand if you had good reasons for keeping him BUT you didn`t and still don`t. All you did was make excuses for him with no facts to support your case, facts that many of us here have for him to be sacked. Now if it is confirmed that he`s staying, I would like to the reasons behind their decision. You come here to gloat YET you don`t see this potential blunder as a blow to players like Lucas, Can, Sterling and God knows at the club, who are sickened of him and would leave us due to his incompetence. All you and your ilk seem to care about is scoring brownie points instead of looking at the big picture. Unlike you, I care about the club too much and will not accept a failure of a manager because he has no interest in what is right for us provided he keeps his position and FSG have validated failure as a mission statement for our great club. Good luck with top signings coming to play for a failure of manager and owners. Have fun w/ your BFF at the helm of the club and when he has failed again because he will, not because I hate him but for what he has shown us so far, we will still be here supporting the club and wanting more from it than scoring pathetic "I told you so" points.
18.) 02 Jun 2015 19:20:45
It`s an American expression meaning, this will be their cross to bear and only theirs to bear. Spare me the self-righteous BS.
19.) 02 Jun 2015 19:24:37
So if the team/club is successful and win either the league or champions league under Rodgers, will you still refuse to support him?
20.) 02 Jun 2015 19:26:38
Reet please tell me why FSG have to put out a statement when nothing as changed?
21.) 03 Jun 2015 00:36:15
Call me back when he has done all that, RK. Until then, chill out!

Eds you said last year brendan went to a conference held by bielsa and used his tactic? Sorry if that's wrong, but did brendan go to another conference per say for this new formation or did he actually draw this up himself? Thanks
{Ed001's Note - he hasn't been to another conference, but then he wouldn't need to, this is Bielsa's formation that he used at Chile.}
1.) Bielsa as director of football??
That would be fun.
2.) I read a few months back that Guardiola quotes Biesla as a form of inspiration to his team formation. In the same article Biesla praises Ajax (under Van Gaal) in the 80's as the team he watched that formed his ideas on football and their formation.
{Ed001's Note - it may be under van Gaal, but it was Cruyff's system that was utilised, the same one that Barca developed, again under Cruyff's guidance.}
3.) Why are we all following Cryuff.
I mean it's not like he was any good at football:)
{Ed001's Note - lucky really, as they do say great footballers don't have a clue about management......}
4.) I must be a ship manager then ed.
Seriously though, a lot of players who become managers do so because of who they know rather than how good they are.
nepotism, arse licking.
World class performers should be able to manage because they have mastered the game but they also have massive ego's so it's a catch 22 situation.
I think world class ex footballers actually make great directors of football but not necessarily good coaches because they look at players (like I do) and say. I'm better than you.That competitive edge never leaves you. ha ha
{Ed001's Note - well John Barnes has proven to be useless at management.....}
5.) Ouch ed. ha ha.
Very true.
I'll get me coat.
04 Feb 2015 19:24:39
Hi Eds, thanks for keeping us up to date as per over January, I know I said back in October time whether I could please ask you to do a questionnaire for me for my a level course, I was wondering whether this is still feasible? It's literally one question, however it is very broad, but I'm only looking for as long as you can be bothered to write really, obviously wouldn't want to put much more strain on your already hectic lives running this site. Thanks eds/Macca and again if you could also send to any contacts i'd be extremely greatful! Cheers! Jake
{Ed001's Note - ok mate.}
1.) How would I go about sending it to you ed? Cheers mate!
{Ed001's Note - contact form mate.}
31 Dec 2014 14:45:38
Ed, who is this wonderdogsparky guy? :') thanks and happy new year in advance!
{Ed002's Note - Sparky, a talking labradoodle, lives with his pets Dinsdale McSkrtel and the previously homeless El Noseo. He likes children - small but tasty.}
1.) I, like the aforementioned dog, also like children, I just can't eat a whole one.
It's a joke Roy, lighten up.
2.) 01 Jan 2015 01:47:04
It appears to be the produce of a deranged lunatic
3.) Ed I'm still no clearer haha, does he have any relevance to liverpool or nothing more than an personic account?
{Ed002's Note - Find a grown up to read it to you.}
4.) I can read Ed :') I was only wondering if it had any relevance or was just some person having fun making stupid inferences to Liverpool players and I'm guessing El noseo is brendan?
{Ed002's Note - Of course it has relevance.}
5.) Ok sorry ed.
08 Nov 2014 19:16:06
Eds there's a rumour that liverpool never actually bought balotelli and that he is owned by a third party instead.
Obviously I don't believe it but just to clarify 100%
{Ed002's Note - That would mean a charge, a significant fine, a likely points deduction and perhaps a transfer ban for Liverpool. I assume you have been playing in Twitter.}
22 May 2015 20:03:45
I bloody hope he goes, he's such a poor manager
16 Oct 2015 21:06:50
Kettle-pot-black. Clearly vacuous. People today just have no consideration for others. This is their job and should be respected on their site, not slated.
25 May 2015 16:44:03
Doubt carragher really thought too much about who the owner, or should I say majority shareholder, was when he saw the potential pay slip.
{Ed001's Note - he should have done. He is after all an extremely wealthy bloke and has absolutely no need of the money.}
25 May 2015 16:27:53
You can't really put down anyone associated with Murdoch (presuming that's what you mean)
{Ed002's Note - So "scousers" now read the Sun then? You are very forgiving people.}
14 May 2015 09:40:09
Ojo, Brannagan and Canos are probably the best at the academy now. Still a lot of young talent though.
19 Apr 2015 19:05:39
I think this is possibly the dumbest post I've seen. We are a mile away from the top teams, everyone else can see the divide but liverpool fans, it's pretty tragic really, we've lost no end of ground on our "rivals" and no doubt when we are in a seemingly different, but much the same scenario next season, if brendan is still in charge, he'll blame it on yet another year of transition. We need a manager that can grind out results no matter how poor the performance, which is effectively what LVG has done. I'm fed up with going on good runs and then the players bottling it, or the tactics being so wayward it's like they've been drawn up by a 5 year old. We get far too many injuries, and imo we aren't ruthless enough. No idea which manager should replace brendan or what tactical basis they should impose, but personally I'd love to see more positive play with a high line and less of this full back shite. Get a good CB and RB in and lucas fit and I'm sure we'd be immediately better. l
