It is still early days whether Kenny deserves a permanent position. Legend or not, he should be judge by the same yardsticks as all other managers - results. But what he has did is bring back respectability to this club.
But if he does continue in this form, i say why not?
I still remember the days when players tremble at the thought of going to Anfield that we already won the game and all we had to do was turn up as if it was another training session. We need to bring that fear back somehow and someway

Kenny is trying to reintroduce "the Liverpool way", boot room, and professional conduct at all times from the manager to the janitor. He only wants to see LFC in the press for the right reasons and will only speculate on new players when they are already in and having a medical. This is the way it was and the way it should be.
I think Kenny will honour his agreed contract until the end of the season and then, if he is offered the job full-time, would humbly accept it. The man is a class act and I can't see him acting in any way but as a true professional.
NESV will of course wait until the end of the season, as responsible owners should. But we can be 99% sure come that time Kenny will be their number 1 choice.

He will only be their number 1 choice if things continue as they recently have been. If they begin to waver again then he may not and we don't know who will be available come summer. Not saying Kenny isn't doing a great job at the moment because things have turned around and are looking positive but the smart way is to wait until the end of the season.
Great points in previous posts by Rafa and Thundyr too, no point giving him three years because if it does happen to go backwards then we would have to fork out for another incomplete contract like with Roy and Rafa and that woudl then take away from our summer spending funds.

I forgot to add that they should come out and say it though; otherwise the months will drag by and everyone calling for him to be signed will think they're just dragging their heels again. Just say, "We're not going to consider any managerial appointment until the end of the season". Make a statement and stick to it. Show some balls, you know? People respect people who have a plan, even if the plan isn't entirely what the majority want. spot on thundyr la. when your not being a 'a self opinionated arsehole'!!!! (that was a nasty thing that lad posted), you make alot of good points.

call me whatever u like but do u really see him back stabbing the club he genuinly n sincerely loves and taking millions like every loser did earlier? muj, i'm with rafarendum on this. i'd just keep the arrangement as it is. i say if we finish 6th this season, he should be offered a longer term contract. whilst historically and in my heart see us as the best club in the country, we, in reality, probably only have the 6th best team

spot on thundyr la. when your not being a 'a self opinionated arsehole'!!!! (that was a nasty thing that lad posted), you make alot of good points. lol, thanks mate. I'm a believer in the human condition; people don't suddenly become "good" or "bad" at something, don't suddenly change allegiance or betray their words. I believe that circumstances around them change, and these changes may lead them to question their beliefs or to become unable to perform their job. I believe in belief; if you don't believe in something how can you put your best efforts towards it's success? If you believe something now, and no one does anything that makes you reconsider that belief, how can your belief (and the actions it justifies) change? I also believe that strong foundations lead to desirable results, but disagree that desirable results imply strong foundations (eg the difference between beating Wolves away and Chelsea at home this season). I believe these things in all aspects of life, not just in football. So I will defend people who are getting stick over unpopular actions, unless it's really clear the actors are just being foolish of course (I'm not a complete idiot). Even if I end up looking the fool, at least I'm trying to understand the reasons for a person's actions rather than simply inventing ones that salve my conscience.

Even when circumstances around us change and we are forced to take action, we must, at the very least, execute those actions with a degree of integrity.

But as the saying goes, "Football is a lie." Right you are. There is really no point in discussing morality when it concerns football. The sad truth is it is usually the fans who bear the brunt because they make an emotional investment.

The role of the fan is largely overlooked actually. We pay good money so these guys can make fortunes off us. Even one-club players think mainly of the club and themselves before they think of the fans, though it's true that they view the fans more as their "own" than most. The rest? Well, it's just a job. You don't like your job (or maybe your boss doesn't like you in the job)? So go find another job. No reason to feel guilty about it.
