I think it’s fair to say very few Liverpool fans are happy with the current status of the club. People are divided on whether Kenny should stay or go this close season the pro Kenny group I might suggest are mainly in the doubter camp but prepared to give him another season.

This is why I believe this close season is the appropriate time.

Firstly my judgement is that he was not the owners choice initially he was forced upon them by circumstances prevailing at that time and to a certain extent for PR reasons.

The standards we have achieved are not those expected of Liverpool football club nor have the very expensive (above market value) signings delivered and at least half look like they never will.

Were we to persist with Dalglish what would be the situation if say by the January transfer window we appeared to be heading once again for 7th / 8th position? That could result in an unseemly rush to appoint a new manager and done in haste as was the last two appointments.

For the sake of Dalglish we would avoid the very unpleasant and undignified (for the club) sight of fans protesting (at worst) or very unpleasant situation (at best).

The solution is clear Kenny to voluntarily resign at the end of this season.

If you don’t believe the above is appropriate at this stage then give us the reasons why. Respect for the man is not an answer it should be based around progress of the club which is surely what we all care about most.

What we dont want to see if Kenny is not manager next season is somebody who is the complete wrong fit for the club,personally I wouldn't trust FSG to know enough yet to make such appointments. I think that a new director of football will probably take office before any managerial decisions are made, I just hope the owners are taking advice from the right people.

I think there will be 1 or 2 people still in favour of him staying, but their arguments can only be based on what they 'hope' might happen if he stays. It is crystal clear that we haven't improved one bit so it's not as if we'll be railroading part of a 3yr plan that is coming together. He can only be judged on this season...which has been the worst ever premier league campaign for us, at a time when he was targetted to get us back into the top 4 to offset his massive spending. I can't see anyway in which he will still be with us next season if FSG are serious about LFC.

Yeah, I agree. I expect that we'll see a new DoF coming in before a new manager - if Kenny goes. I'm sure any prospective new manager would like to know who they'd be working with firstly. Things in the league haven't just started going wrong in the last few weeks. We've been out of the race for 4th for 2 or 3 months, so they owners have had plenty of time to seek advice and size up a few possible replacement for both positions. I just hope they've put that time to good use, because the next appointments of those two jobs - should they be filled this summer - will be crucial.

there is no case.

we beat billionaire city away this season, chelsea twice, utd, arsenal. we missed loads of chances that we won't next season. maybe only a handful of very poor performances. on the whole things are looking up. get the right guys in in the transfer window and we are laughing.

agree with this 100%

Also want 2 add the response of the chelsea defeat, shows that the manager is in control and can motivate the players. The players still want 2 play for him. Couple of signings and a majority of our young squad will improve from this season. Looks good for next season.
