Houllier's Last Demons

[Red Nick]

Finally laid to rest.

 

just goes to show how far we have come since we lost in the FA cup under Houllier

 

Rafa is the real deal

[Evil_Ways]

What exactly do you mean with this ?

What exactly do you mean with this ?

 

I remember losing to Pompey in the FA cup one of the low points under Houllier and was never gonna happen under Rafa

[Dirk]

Nick, Rafa lost to Burnley last season.

You not remember games against Pompey in the cup when Gerard was in charge? :sniff:

[chorlton]

I don't like generalising, but pompey's crowd are fucking idiots. Every decision regardless of how obvious it was got booed if it wasn't in there favour.

And those drums. My God those f*ckin drums

:wallbutt: :wallbutt:

Yes and Palace this season but you couldnt see the same thing happening now under Rafa, were much more consistent and now can play badly and beat most teams

 

Todays result banishes all Houllier's demons

 

This is the best LFC team since 1991 so lets enjoy it

[Brownie]

Nick you don't half talk some shite mate, sort it out please...

[Cardie]

O_o

[Gray Riley]

And those drums. My God those f*ckin drums

Their crowd was pretty vocal throughout but I'd hate to sit next to those cunts with the drums as you say. Don't see the relevance in bringing up a Houllier defeat by Portsmouth. If we're going to put forward half baked argument, Gerard actually won the competition so is well ahead of Rafa in that respect. He's got plenty of time to catch up though - hopefullly at Cardiff in May.

Slighty off topic but have they decided Wembley isn't going to host the final now?

I say that cos I know a few people working on Wembley at the moment and they're adament based on first hand knowledge that there is no way it'll be finished in time for May.

Yeah, every little thing that went against them was wrong, they should have fucking Drogba in the team they'd love him there. I think Dowd has a decent game personally

Need a new stadium building, up against the clock - get Parry he's your man! ;)

[ScouseJim]

New Anfield and Wembley are both jokes! Look at the Millennium Stadium, brilliant stadium, great atmosphere generated in it and it cost peanuts compared to Wembley!

[jamespp]

we won but i thought it was terrible long ball shite just like houllier, this after the way we passed it around at old trafford

[bigredruss]

O_o but cardiff not in london so it would be cheaper and no politics to sort out either ;)

Tend to agree their, mate. Judging by the Irish crane operator I shared a train with from Euston I reckon the whole thing might not pass inspection. He was from Kerry Co, though.

Well, maybe it wouldn't have been like that if we weren't playing on a newly ploughed field. Mrs RiS thought we were playing a non-league side.

[Nerik]

0-0 dull game we geta penalty. Owen misses in 04 and we slump. Gerrard scores in 06 and we go onto win.........

[G Richards]

Don't think that game did anything with regard to supposed remaining Houllier 'demons'. If anything, Istanbul sorted all that out, confirming once and for all to the whole world that a new man is in charge at Anfield. Under Rafa we have been beaten by lesser teams in both cups, Burnley and Crystal Palace, but I do agree that a new steely determination has come into the side that allows us to win in difficult places, even when playing poorly.

[Mr T]

Has Cisse gone? :whistle:

I think losing to Burnley in the FA cup was slightly worse.

 

What a shit, pointless post

[Nerik]

We lost at Burnley with our kids on the field. Against Pompey, in both games, under Gh we fielded our strongest possible side.
