I've obviously upset at least Faz and maybe one or two others with the this thread. Here's what made me do it.

I was reading an article about Swansea in which the chairman was asked about Laudrup being linked with RM. The chairman's reaction was something like... 'we're ready for it. in fact we're always ready for it. it's our job to constantly be aware of other managers, their strengths etc... and whether they'd fit into our way of doing things.'

I guess it's like any well run organisation. You can't sit back and take things for granted. You should have a continuity/contingency plan... whatever it's called... in the event that something happened to key personnel.

Now in this thread, I haven't gone as far as suggesting replacements. All I've done is in effect ask 'Does BR need to achieve a certain league ranking to keep his job at the end of the season?'. I really don't see what's disgraceful about that?

He should be given at least two seasons to prove his worth, and even so if only we are lingering at mid-table or below, then we could consider. Right now I think his job is safe.

Think there are too many threads popping up undermining the managers position. Lets be honest here, only for poor finishing and some schoolboy defending this season we could be higher up the league than we are. We dominated most of the games that we either lost or drew. We should have won 90% of them games. In my opinion the manager is doing a great job in his first season yet some are very narrow minded to acknowledge this. A few good signing in the summer and we wont be far away. Just watching Swansea today made me think of were this team is heading and to me the future looks bright under BR.

If you can't make the connection Faz, I worry for you..

I think it's a fair thread to see where everyone stands / thoughts. Think 95% are realistic about where we are, see a lot of positives and look forward to us building on what we have.

As someone above pointed out, a tighter defence and we'd be a lot higher up the table.. those silly mistakes need to be ironed out - and that's exactly what they have been..

A club of thi calibre should e winning a minimum of one trophy a season. The league is the bread and butter and that should be won every year. Bar that, a minimum of CL qualification and a cup competition. On that basis, BR has been a total failure.

Laudrup did bring instant success to Swansea despite having to replace 3 of their best players when he arrived and not getting much funds to buy players. Hats off.

Why's that then? A good manager will improve the team much quicker than 2 years!

Back to the poll though, it shows how well FSG have managed the expctations (brainwashed) a large portion of fans. 1 in 4 Liverpool fans would settle for a top half finish!!!!! Jesus Fvcking Christ!!!
