Di Matteo sacked

[WhiskeyJar 424]

Really? Pointless bickering aside, you're in the 'Rodgers believers' (name change pending) camp?

 

So what if he is?

 

Whats your side of the argument?

[Trumo 16,205]

I wonder what Martin Broughton makes of all this. The team he supports now have the same manager and main striker that were part of a club of which he was once the chairman.

Surely he'll just want his team to do well, like all fans do.

I haven't decided yet, I'll need to see what his reply is. Then, naturally, I'll take the opposing stance and annoy him with it.

 

I've been one of Rodgers' most vocal supporters on here, so I don't think it's a secret.

"Rafael Benitez is due to meet his Chelsea players today for the first time, and he will be hoping for a better greeting than the one presented by angry supporter outside their Cobham training ground who is holding a banner saying: 'BENITEZ OUT - 1 DI MATTEO'."

 

They're a classy bunch. Regardless of what you think about Rafa, that's just hideous.

[Dan 19]

I wish him all the best, thanks for number 5.

I wish him all the best, thanks for number 5.

 

I can't do that, as it would mean Chelsea are successful, and they're all cunts.

[Skidfingers McGonical 3,495]

Is this the level of our fans now?

 

Jesus wept.

 

 

I don't see two facepalms in that picture.

[FrenchEyeGlass 1,210]

Zenden is his assistant, apparently.

[Skidfingers McGonical 3,495]

 

Im sure you said the same when Dalglish won the league with Newcastle.

 

(Seriously' date=' people on here need to stop trying to push this whole attitude of detachment. Rafa is a club legend - for a multitude of reasons - and one of three managers to bring home a European Cup. He should, and will, be forever respected and appreciated by anybody associated with the club, as he will always be part of it. Sure, if we were playing Chelsea tomorrow i'd hope we fucking battered them silly, twice in the arse. But there is nothing wrong with a) being happy for a LFC legend and b) hoping he does well and repairs an unfair reputation. That doesn't constitute as supporting him, or Chelsea. Its just wishing him well. And I wish Brendan even well-er.)[/quote']

 

Not sure anyone has mentioned this, but Dalglish didn't win the league with Newcastle.

[A Red 3,922]

I dont blame Rafa at all, heres his chance to rebuild his reputation, earn his money and live in a country he is obviously settled in.

 

He goes to Man utd, Chelsea, Man City or Arsenal he has a chance to succeed. He goes to Aston Villa, Newcastle or the like his chances are limited. Its just that Chelsea became available first.

 

I'm a lifelong Liverpool fan, always have been and always will be, I will always be biased and see things through red tinted glasses. Rafa is a football professional for hire. I'm sure he feels a certain affinity to us particularly as he was successful and i'm pretty sure he would have come back if it was offered, but whats he meant to do?

 

I like Rafa, hate chelsea but totally understand why the 2 are together.

I d like to think you were joking but I sense you're not

[silverlining 37]

Why does this place have so many fucking dimwits?

[stringvest 14,176]

 

Who has enough money to live comfortably for the rest of his life.

 

He knows the needle between that shit club and plastic fans and flags compared to our unique club.

 

He s a sell out and jokers should stop making excuses for him

 

El traitor

 

Get over yourself. Are you 14?

 

He's a professional man who wants to work. He will never get a better or easier chance to quickly restore his reputation and boost his profile. He's not a blubbing fan. He'd be insane to knock it back.

[Dan 19]

????????????????????? are you on drugs?

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Why does this place have so many fucking dimwits?

 

AIDS for brains. Get on it.

 

Or don't.

[Whelan 0]

Yep - Brendan Rodgers is still our manager! Code is still on ignore, nothing to get wound up about.

 

This means absolutely nothing.

[The KillingMoon 1]

When did Kenny win the league with Newcastle then girls ?

 

Must have missed that.

[Skidfingers McGonical 3,495]

I d like to think you were joking but I sense you're not

 

Why would I be joking about something that is so fucking wrong?

Yep.

 

It would be a tremendous lie to say that I wish his tenure there well; I'm not a weird RAWK-style groupie, but I can't begrudge Rafa for taking what is a very attractive opportunity.

 

I'm also completely indifferent to him being met with fans wanting him out already, because he's not an idiot, he's an intelligent, stubborn man who knows exactly how he's perceived and will believe that they'll soon be won over.

 

Okay, say he refused to castigate his team's support in the event that they start up with the Hillsborough stuff again; that would overshadow his achievements here and be a valid reason to feel contempt for the man. For just taking the manager's job at a pseudo-rival? Come on.

When did Kenny win title with Newcastle la?

[Skidfingers McGonical 3,495]

When did Kenny win title with Newcastle la?

 

That was my point.

[The KillingMoon 1]

That was my point.

 

I apologise for misinterpretating your point

[CWD82 113]

When did Kenny win title with Newcastle la?

 

He was correcting the post he quoted that was written by someone else

[moof 5,669]

Has Silverlining banned himself?
