If we finished 14th which is hard to believe but not impossible I could see a hell's chance BR could survive

Well whether BR does survive or not, is not the real issue facing LFC. It’s whether or not FSG survives and if they do, whether or not they belatedly decide to compete for proven PL ready, top quality players.
Without a critical mass of top quality players no team can reasonably expect to win the PL or even qualify for the CL, let alone win it. If we persist with the current recruitment policy we can expect a steady decline.

At this point in time, no decent managers will be available without compensation being paid, the cheapest option would be Rafa who only has 6 months left on his contract.

If we slip any lower I can see Rodgers being sacked, Pascoe being in charge for 1 or 2 games before Kenny takes over as an interim manager until the Summer.

Seriously, these Premiership footballers must rewrite medical history. Very few of them can play more than a handful of games without allegedly getting injured (and that's if they are not complaining about being tired).

Yet compare them to any tennis player for example, or rugby star of either code - the physical demands pale into insignificance and their guys are not "injured" every five minutes.

Come to think of it, I grew up in the era of Phil Neal, Ray Kennedy, John Toshack, Kevin Keegan and Stevie Heighway through to Alan Hansen, Alan Kennedy, Ian Rush, Kenny Dalglish et al - when players could commit GBH before receiving a yellow card - but I swear they hardly ever missed a game through "injuries". Even the so-called Spice Boys didn't sit out many games either.

I believe the problem is the modern-day definition of injury. And too many players take advantage of it when their team is going though a bad patch. I guarantee that if clubs gave them only SSP during such times, there would be a lot less "injuries".

Fans paying a small fortune to watch these people are being, more often than not, ripped off.

I think modern day footballers need to drink more Ale.


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.
