KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Kenny Dalglish on Margaret Thatcher tributes

dalglish speaks his mind and is spot on. so sorry that thins did not work out on his 2nd stint as manager. he is liverpool to the core.

So am I but like kenny I would also be an awful manager

Yes decent people watch rugby and before you ask yes i do warrington wolves. Football supporters (not always) but relative to rugby are idiots as we saw yesterday at wembley. And after a lifetime of following Liverpool home and abroad I have seen some right low life's. highlights were Athens 2007 and wembley 1989 when right after hillsborough you would think they would behave themselves. Not all Liverpool fans of course but post above does not surprise me in the least. And before anyone says rugby is a posh game no it's not particularly rugby league.

So awful that he won us the last trophy, getting us to two finals in his worst stint and was replaced by a manager who is going to do better by one leugue position after a net spend of 40m. Btw, the net spend under KD was also 40m...over 2 seasons.

The first season he took over hodgsons team so a bit unfair to average that out. He wasted massive amounts of money and the cups are luck. The real test is the league i agree rodgers not doing much better

i dont understand why people refuse to accept this fact. continuing to champion rodgers and denouncing KD, even though kenny did better than rodgers did. fair enough kenny may not be the right man for the job either, but why rodgers.

maybe people are just suckers for his spin.

ok we can sack him and get someone else but we will having the same debate over and over

don't think we can totally dismiss the cups as luck. 2 cup finals in one season is a reflection of the importance we gave to the competetions.

Kenny did better than BR in the short term. But the suggestion is that BR is laying the foundations for more sustainable success with a better quality, more sophiticated product. The problem with that though is that it's a promise of jam tomorrow - we won't know if it pans out that way until another season or two. The signs are mixed at the moment, but imo the balance is on the right side of keeping and supporting BR. Other factors that support this call are the need for stability and the lack of an alternative that is any less of a gamble.

I would not favour getting rid of Rodgers at this potnt. But next season if we are not substantively better then I think it's on the cards

Most of us will agree with that, but I really thought we would do well (average of 2 points per game) in our last 10 games, but, 2 draws against very weak teams is really not filling me with confidence. BR had more than 30 games to get his ideas through, brought in half a team, no major injuries (don't think Borini is a major player), and we cannot beat 2 teams fighting relegation. FSG fcuked it up through their ignorance, why take a chance with a rookie manager who has won [oops] all in his whole career, we have turned out to be a team experimenting things, really tired with them. Did well by stopping to buy merchandise and I won't buy anytime soon.
