Stoke Away match thread

[Strontium]

Tomorrow is 10 years since Istanbul, but the football on show is light years from Istanbul.

[moof]

People aren't taking pleasure in this, you mentalist.

Of course not

[Robinson]

That Gerrard has to suffer this in his last game is galling.Had enough of Brodgson!

[Dr. J]

I think I've calmed down a bit now. 

 

I shall spend the second half musing on how we can fit the word 'outstanding' into the post-match press conference. 

 

Come on: "We were very good but Stoke were outstanding."

[Jairzinho]

Steve Gerrard's last game for us is this fucking debacle, it's tragic.

 

I'd let him go home and have a bubble bath if he wants. A polite "Thanks, but no thanks" to Rodgers request for him to play the second half.

[J-V]

Get a grip.

 

It's only football.

 

I won't lose sleep over it but I don't find the team I support getting hammered by a load of shite funny you gimp.

 

[J-V]

What an honour

 

One upside to the day.

Ah, maybe Joe Allen will inspire a rousing second half comeback today to celebrate the anniversary

[Tony Moanero]

Just fuck off with this tired shite for once, would you?

No.

 

Why should I?

 

Most of the posters in this thread are posting the same old shit that they have been posting all season long. If that's not "tired shite" then I don't know what is.

 

If you don't laugh, you cry.

 

All said and done, it is only football.

[Anubis]

It's not schoolboy football, div.  They can't all chase over to the one side.

 

Yeah, ok....

[an tha]

Our season ended weeks ago, but it should surely be about pride and of course it's an absolute disgrace that Stevies final game for us has descended to these depths, a terribly unfitting end for a legend.

Stoke are avoiding him on purpose for that very reason, so he has had no choice but to sit out left, twiddling his thumbs. Poor Joe.

[magicrat]

This is so sad to watch. So sad. I have never seen a manager come back from the kind of performances that we have been turning in these past 2 months. I see now way out for him now.

i saw no way out for him back in December but he stumbled on way to play 3 at the back and win games by overloading the midfield but Koeman sussed us out and its been a rail crash since. No strikers now equals no job for Brendan. 

[Rotpeter]

Something is seriously wrong in the state of Denmark here.

 

No way do we fold like this. No way

Indeed, an unweeded garden of things rank and gross in nature.

[Faustus]

Sad thing is, I wouldn't be surprised if some of our players aren't even arsed. Too many don't take defeat as a personal insult.

[James Dean]

Wow. Goodbye Brendan.

[thompsonsnose]

Someone posted earlier Gerrard should just take a red and twat Adams. Trouble is, he also needs to twat Shawcross, Walters, and about 6 more of the Stoke team. No-one else is going to do it- bunch of pussies. And while he's at it, maybe he can do a two footed lunge at Rodger's bollocks on his way off.

He needs to twat most of his own side first.

[Anubis]

Five goals down. Two substitutions. Still no recognised strikers.

 

Last time 5 goals down in 1976.

[SilverSong]

I bet 200,000 that Stoke would be leading 5-0 at the half and stand to collect about 12 million. So I have kind of mixed feelings right now.

 

I will gladly put up some my winnings to see Brendan off in style.

The fact that your bet was only 60-1 speaks volumes.

[stringvest]

he's started to.

[Brigant Moloch]

the club should return money to the away fans and Adam Lallana, he didn't go as a spectator to watch this dross

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Can anyone give a lucid account of things so Far? Luckily I opted to go the hurling.

A lucid account?

 

You're asking the FF for a lucid account of anything?

 

Liverpool fans are revelling in Liverpool taking a bumming.  Pick the lucidity out of that.

[Gym Beglin]

Just, wow.

 

The state of some of you who have been backing Rodgers *shakes head*

[Innova]

Must be hard for any striker to want to come to Liverpool.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Never seen anything line this in over 40 years watching us. He survives this and I give up. Hotch potch of a team expensively assembled showing no fight. He has lost the dressing room clearly despite what some players say. Tactically inept. Out of his depth. Suarez gave him his best season and ours for years. We didn't want to admit initially. But we all know know it's true.

As Tony M says it's only a game, and I agree. Games however are meant to be enjoyable this is about as fun as having a tooth removed minus anaesthetic. Rodgers is like some character out of a sketch show. Paul Whitehouse playing him. The totally thick skinned lack of self awareness boss who believes his own spiel. Sooner he fucks off the better. Cannot stand the sight of him. Shameless charlatan of a man.

As for certain players, eunuchs have more balls. Let themselves and the fans down. Shameless.

 

Going too family do tonight. In Breck Rd. Cannot wait for the BS side after this. Should be a good night. Not.
