Dalglish the football manager

[zigackly]

If he starts winning things he'll get acclaimed for it, and rightly so.  

 

This.

[stringvest]

Brendan could win everything and people would still denigrate his record. Nobody is denigrating Dalglish's record either. Just because the man is a legend doesn't mean stuff has to be overlooked.

 

You're talking rubbish there Robbie.  Absolute bollocks.  I don't know anyone apart from Code who would try to denigrate anything Rodgers wins.  And Code doesn't post on here much these days.

[stringvest]

It appears to depend on who wins and what they win. The importance of the league cup, for example, seems to vary manager to manager.

 

It might do in your world Cardie, but it means the same to most people.

Naive bollocks that.

 

You know he's posting on here with 15 different accounts.

yeah, but he's not posting as much. 

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Ha!

[Ranxerox]

Thing is, Robbie is right; a lot of people on here just don't like him. They don't want to see him do poorly, but when he does they sure let people know what they think of him. The tables turned on him pretty quickly at the beginning of this season.

 

I do think some would do what they did with Rafa and find reasons to denigrate any success, just as they have with his progress, but I don't think there will be many.

 

 

I think for a lot of supporters Rodgers will always be like the guy who "is just not good enough to marry my daughter".

I dont think I am Stringy. People are very fickle.

Your memory  must be failing you.

Being fickle and writing him off so soon after doing so well last season is one thing. Actually denigrating and downplaying his success if he wins something is a whole different ball game. Think you're being overly sensitive here.

name names Robbie, because I genuinely don't know who you're talking about - I haven't seen any such evidence.  

 

I like Rodgers as a manager, and I hope he does well for us.  I don't like listening to him, but I don't want him sacked.  I want him to stay, assuming he can sustain the recovery.  I think the majority of people on here are of roughly the same mindset re Rodgers.

Nope.  As usual, your judgement is letting you down badly.

Yep.

[VladimirIlyich]

It's absolute madness and delusion to suggest Kenny did a better job than Rodgers is doing.

The Rodgers love in now looks very silly on this thread.

[moof]

Hahha fuck off vlad.

Apart from actually winning things...

[Lee909]

There is a easy answer to any Rodgers based question

 

Who was manager in a 6-1 loss to Stoke?

 

 

Luckily i was out of it from just after the Villa semi final till late July so didnt know the result for well over s month. Fucking Stoke,should have been sacked on the fucking spot instead of pissing more money up the fucking wall

But it wasn't his fault that he decided to start a front six made up entirely of central midfielders.

 

Oh wait, it was. Should have been sacked that day, but it's probable we wouldn't have ended up with Klopp, so I can live with it.

Yes, Liverpool used to measure things in trophies.

I know it's unfashionable, and just plain wrong of course because Rodgers was clearly the better by any measure since football was invented in 1992, but let's turn back the clock and state the classified result in the contest between our last two managers.

In my best Sports Report voice:

 

KDFC 1 BRFC 0

[Bjornebye]

He is the only man I would want managing us over Klopp. He belongs in that dugout. I fucking love the man.

That's pretty damning, that:  Sleeping rough on death's doorstep was preferable to watching the last few months of last season.

 

I was fully compos mentis throughout and I'm inclined to agree with you.
