Rodgson has had no pressure at all, to be fair. His boss publicly anounced that there was no specific target for this season, certainly not top 4. But when BR comes out and says that top 2 is on the cards shortly before gettng walloped by a sh!te aston villa team then it's clear that he is his own worst enemy.
People continually making excuses for him are beginning to look a bit foolish.

It depends on how you define 'freefall'. For me, it describes a team going backwards. Not necessarily year on year but over a period of time - that IS us since. And to make matters worse, our owners don't seem willing or able to finance a return back up to the right end of the table and our manager doesn't seem capable. So, for the last few years we've been going backwards, our last few managers haven't been good enough to improve us and our owners can't compete with a lot of other clubs around us. If that isn't a club in freefall I don't know what is.

Horsesh!t. EVERY club thinks their own fans are the most knowledgeable. Its only Liverpool fans that regularly stake claim to it though. Who's the judge anyway?

The claim that liverpool fans were and are more knowledgable is horsesh1t. It originated from the fact that liverpool were so much better than their opponents that they could afford themselves the opportunity to applaud the other team on the rare occasion that the other team did better than liverpool did.
Whilst it may be true that this is pretty unusual (you don't see man united applauding other teams as far as i know), this has nothing to do with 'knowledge.'

Any in anycase, its ridiculous to say that one 'crowd' 'is more intelligent than another 'crowd!' People use this 'knowledgable' fans bullsh1t to rubbish other constructive opinion. It's intellectually immature but not suprising really given the 'knowledgable fans' on here who spout untruths regularly for what purpose I dont know its just sad really.....

There must have been a general knowledge test at some point that spread across the global fan base of all clubs, with us coming out on top. Despite some intense rivalries and historical differences with utd & everton they still proclaim us as the most knowledgeable. Does that sound plausible? Or is it just some arrogant, unfounded comment that a few fans exhume every now and again?

my god you are incredibly sad and unstable. first it was Hodgson then Kenny now BR. Talk about not giving anyone time, you consistently abuse and ridicule anyone who offers a more positive point of view as if you possess some sort of Nostradamus type logic. The overwhelming majority support BR and what he is trying to do, but what do you care? as long as you can 'mark' his homework every week then preach on here on how bad things are, you seem to try and make it some sort of self fulfilled prophecy of misery- for you then to say 'i the great Carheex told you so'

clearly the majority who go the games and see first hand how the club is progressing have no problem. disapointed at certain results no doubt. But whilst there are ineternet bandits like you who constantly scupper any reason or logic for their own righteous purpose then LFC truly are in decline.

Fortuntely your voice is only on here and not where quite often it matters in the stands, be it Anfield or even Knowsley road watching out fanatastic u21s. I will continue to try and add positivity on here and maybe offer some credence of hope to the loyal posters who cannot get to games.

trust me all the club is ok, FSG have work to do in January but if as rumoured things work out then the future is indeed bright. I can say with some confidence that my view is shared around the ground.

When was the last time you saw fans leaving so early in a match though? I am not saying it hasnt happened? But I am curious to know how many actually left before 80mins

Instead of insulting me, trying to tell me how I think and deciding what games I may or may not go to, why not just counter my argument about whether we are in freefall? Otherwise your post could be interpreted as just a nasty, contrived outburst.
