The Sounes Era

[Cork Red]

Is it fair to lump the blame on liverpools decline on graeme sounes feet.I mean there was signs of decline towards the end of kenny dalglishes time as manager.He also blooded steve mcmanaman jamie redknapp and robbie fowler.In the history of liverpool dvd mark wright says if sounes was given more time he would have been a success.Hmm interesting theory.

[Section_31]

Nah he was shite

[RobbieOR]

Souness was shite.Anyone who sells Peter Beardsly and buys picniech didnt have a clue what they were doin.

Mark Wright, what the fuck does he know about football?

[ratcatcher]

David Moores is the reason for our decline. He had no bleeedin idea how to run a massive football club. Nepotism at its worst.

I think id prefer david moores than the two yanks.At least he cared about the club.

[JohnnyH]

If he cared about the club he wouldn't have sold it to the two yanks.

[23_Carra_Gold]

I wonder what ex-manager will get a thread next.

[JohnnyH]

I'll put a fiver on Don Welsh

[Uncle_Meat]

If Souness was given more time he might have signed Ali Dia to go along with all those other quality additions he made.

 

And he still owes my dad 50 quid, the cunt.

George Kay, surely.

My money's on Houllier.

Correct!

 

Souness was clueless though, piechnik and the sales of beardsley and houghton when they were playing great is madness.

[23_Carra_Gold]

Personally I'm hoping for Tom Watson.

[RobbieOR]

Ill see that fiver and raise you 10.

[Sangria]

As a player he was as good as they come, as a manager he did not have it. As for our decline, I would look more at the boardroom.

Souness's time as manager? I can remember losing my glasses celebrating a goal against QPR on a rainy midweek game. Also laughing at Paul Stwearts head as he ran/staggered towards the Annie RD in one of his early games. Also going mad when we beat Luton in a cup game? things were different then

 

The 3-3 mancs...but can also remeber sitting in my aunties after a game wondering what the fuck we were doing in 13th or so place in the league.

 

Strange times

The derby game when brucie and macca had a punch up.

After the shock of Kenny leaving i was delighted when news broke Souness had got the job.Thought the good times would just roll on,how wrong was i! Didn't he have to off load a few players due to the new number of foreign players allowed in teams at that time? Plus there seemed to be an endless amount of injuries happening then.Which meant the new young guns had to be pushed into the team earlier than expected. Still won the FA cup though and stopped the mancs winning the title in '92. But fucked up big time with the "Loverpool" story in the Scum, which he admits was a major balls up on his part. That alone was enough for him to have to go let alone the results factor.Good pundit on RTE though never afraid to show his allegiance to the Reds.

[jamespp]

I missed the Souness era thank god, 94/95 was my first season as a Red, 6-1 v Palace the first game:yes:

[House of Dirk]

Ace player. Shithouse manager in a league where it wasnt a one horse race.

[Baldi]

Agreed wasnt Noel White at the helm for part of of Sourness time ?

[House of Dirk]

Yes, he would have been.
