I will preface, saying that I am not necessarily pro-Kennny. But there is the fact that he brought out of the relegation zone with an incredible run for the entire second half of last season, despite the fact that we lost our star player and we were playing with a rag-tag squad that had all but fallen apart with injuries and Hodgson signings (that were worse than Kenny's worst ones). With that rag-tag team he outfoxed and outplayed Wegner, Fergie, Manchini, and Ancelotti, and he got us playing good football again. He did it without promise of the permanent job, even though he had been snubbed for Roy, and even though it seemed as though the owners did not want him at all. He saved our asses last season, and for that alone he has my respect.

Even if we don't think he should be here anymore (which I agree that there is may someone better for the job), Kenny deserves our respect and he has been instrumental in several big things. Yeah, the record since January has been bloody awful, but before then we looked to be in the running for 4th. At times we played really good football this season, and the Dalglish part of last season we were on fire.

The biggest problem has been the signings, but some of them, particularly Carroll our biggest price tag, are showing signs of coming good. The players like Kenny. They all have publicly backed him, and Carroll especially has thanked him for his faith and support. What if Hendo and Downing (both of whom have had flashes) turn it around and become the signings we hoped they'd be?

No, the league form is not good enough, but we've had some very important wins this season that show signs that Kenny could do this. We are one of the only teams to beat City away, and we've beaten united, Arsenal, Chelsea 3 times, and Newcastle. We got some silverware in the cabinet, we've rejuvinted the youth system, and we've started playing positive football again. The squad looks like its learned how to work together, and I think with Lucas back, we will look a completely different team.

If Kenny were to resign this summer, I wouldn't be one to say no, but at the same time I wouldn't be one to say no if he stayed.

IMO kenny should get at least another 6 months. The way I look at it we were hovering above relegation when he took over last season and it was looking for a while like we might nick fourth! That was a great turn around, and up until Xmas this season we were playing good football but we couldn't score goals. Agreed since then it's been a bit dire but we have still been in two cup finals and won one of them. So it hasn't been totally horrific. So to me he's had a bad 5/6 months but let's not forget he's been incharge for 18

As for the transfers, sure they haven't worked out but hendo is young, do he still gets time in my eyes. Remember Lucas in the first few seasons? Downing has been poor but who could have dotting that after his magnificent season for villa last year. Carroll has taken time to settle in, but now the fans are getting behind him he seems to be hitting his stride. Adam is crap and i never understood why we bought him. We bought a lot of players and tried to integrate them into our first team. It's never going to be all flying colours from the off.

Those of you blowing hot air up jova, cole and babels ring pieces need to read back a few years at their opinions of them when they were here. Bar babel who let's be fair only had flashes of brilliance they were poor for us.

Also saying not sacking a manager because their is nobody else being a stupid reason, try telling that to wolves! I'd happily wave kenny off if mouhrinho was coming in but you have to be realistic about who we will get and there is no top drawer manager we could get currently. Before you start singing about rafa let's not forget his stint at inter......

But I still haven't heard one argument to say who should replace him?! Best argument i have is that the man bleeds LFC red. It's not why he should stay but theres a bit of satisfaction knowing that the person hurting the most this season is Kenny himself. The man is an absolute WINNER! but winning is a little more difficult than making a few suggestions to an XBOX. I never wanted Rafa out but many did and we are certainly not better for it. now we want Kenny out but who comes in?!

It depends who comes in really. If it's van gaal as manager then i can't see how thats going to take us forward.

It has to be someone who can take us forward, further than Kenny can. So it has to be somebody relatively young for one and somebody everybody can get behind and support.

The list is very short though.

+1 for the Wolves comment. Sacking the manager didn't really work out for them, did it?

6 months if he stays minimum. Kenny needs to be given more time.

If the owners decide he goes, then we can't do anything about it. But I HOPE, they bring somebody worthy in, because if they don't, it will all topple down to square one again.
