The truth is none of us know the 'real truth' about what is happening to our fantastic club because we are not privy to the facts and details about the club. And that's a good thing because the details of what goes on behind the scenes should be kept private - it's the Liverpool way.

Yes, there has been some 'dirty laundry' aired recently but I'm sure there were some political reasons for doing that in the long-term interests of the club.

However, most of us are forced to speculate and rely on dodgy opinion from pundits, journalists etc which on the whole is also misinformed because they don't know the truth either.

It saddens me to see so much negativity surrounding the club. As in so many areas of life, it is always easier to destruct than to create, easier to be negative than positive. To me, YNWA means support through thick & thin, head held high, pride in our club, unwavering in our support for the team, un-moveable in adversity.

Rafa may frustrate at times but none of us could do a better job under the conditions and with the resources at his disposal which I calculate to be roughly a real spend of under £20 million per year. (see also Tommy Smith article in the Echo)
And remember, this is to re-build an entire squad to function to his way of playing. Given proper funding Rafa may have purchased more attacking/flair players and wouldn't have to take so many risks in the market but it is worth looking at the buying mistakes of ALL the top managers and you will see that Rafa has probably, on balance, done better in buying players than most if not all the top managers on a pound-for-pound basis.After the dismantling of Liverpool by Souness and the short-term fixes after it is a relief that Rafa is getting into place all the elements to build us into a great club again. He's not just trying to build a team he's trying to build a a Shankly-like dynasty.

No negativity from me. This is not a complete project but a work in progress.
I don't believe there is anyone else out there who could have done a better job but what ever your individual thoughts and opinions the truth is we don't know the 'truth' and all we can do is support the team in the 'Liverpool way'. Remember this is a club built on adversity. Remember too 'This Is Anfield'. Also remember this isn't Man U or Chelsea or Unreal Madrid. This is Liverpool! And never forget the meaning of YNWA!

f**k it im going out on a limb, and if i hang myself on this one so be it....

look to aquilanni...... if fowler was god then this could be jesus. (he's got the hair for it. grin )
i honestly think he is going to be the turning point. he wont do it single handedly but i think he has the ability to inspire those around him to not only play well, but to enjoy their football. ive done a fair amount of research on him, and looks very natural, very comfortable on the ball, great vision, and wants to get involved. he may not be a bone cruncher but thats what masch is for. the squad we have now PROVED at the end of last season that they have the ability, they just need to maintain it. bit of belief, bit of inspiration, a few wins back to back and a building of confidence is all we need, depsite what the hype says.
