Would we have even tried to sign joe cole, if rafa was still here? Would joe cole have come to liverpool if rafa was still here?! Would we have got danny wilson if rafa was still here? the player rejected a contract when we offered it to him under rafa, all this talk of 5 million back then was bullshit.....he knew he wouldnt player much under benitez....so didnt want to take the risk of coming here to play in the reserves. Would we have got rid of degen so quick if rafa was here? or would rafa have kept trying to give him a game to proove he didnt make a bad signing in the first place? Would we have got rid of insua, who rafa over used becuase his other buy dossena was so shit. and thus meant he put to much pressure on the kid to perform and this resulted in his lack of confidence at times...not to mention how much of the opposition targetted him and tried to attack as much down his side as possible? he was a known weak link in liverpools defence last year, many teams after christmas identified this. would gerrard and torres stayed if rafa was still here? From the evidence we have, via ex-players talking, something wasnt right about rafa and the way he went about his business. yossi, pennant and arbeloa have all recently slated rafa and teh way he handled players. rafa had become too big for liverpool, his ego had out grown the club. his refusal to change and his stubborness, especially last year, fucked our club up....we lost 19 games last year. now we have a man, who hasnt come here shouting for demands and isnt moaning about the lack of money. he is also getting transfers done with very quickly and away from the media eye. yet he doesnt have full control over the trnasfer like rafa did?...... yet he is making bigger moves in a shorter time the benitez ever did? is it just possible, that rafa wasnt the right man for liverpool????..i bet many fans on here right now are calling me many names, but just think..... we knew many of the players supposidly roy is being "told to get rid of" by christian purslow are fucking shit and not good enough for liverpool. rafa fans used to put up with the shit he sent onto the pitch becuase they loved rafa and truly belived in him. i didnt if he kept his mouth shut 2 years ago, and didnt have a pathetic, embarassing rant at fergie.....we might have won the league. he didnt change much from houllier, same defensive boring football. watching liverpool at times under rafa was the lowest id got as a football fan.....let alone a liverpool fan. the fact we had 6-7 wingers at the club yet they all were fighting for one place.....left wing....as he never ever dropped dirk kuyt.........who is the only player in the world that can control a rolling ball on the floor......with his shin. what a joke that was. he over used lucas and insua....and has damaged their confidence, probably forever. roy is no fucking puppet and purslow isnt selling players from beneath him.....maybe he has fucking eyes.and can see what many liverpool fans do.....that most of the shit benitez brought into our club......were poor players. im so glad rafa has gone, we wouldnt never have won the league under him, stop dreaming guys, he was spreading a cancer inside our club and only the fans with their eyes open can see that. im glad roy is here and already getting rid of many of the players we all knew were shit. he has brough in joe cole and what a signing. roys arrival meant gerrard would stay and now torres will to. i just hope rafa takes kuyt with him to milan as dirk isnt good enough for liverpool, and deffo not in the prem........his first touch is about as good as titus bramble's roy hodgson has done more in 4 weeks than rafa did in the last two year....... sold some shit players and brought in a quality attacking player, yet many of you still dont get excited?! you will see a great attackign liverpool next year, have you on the edge of your seats again. have you waiting for kick off, abotu what might on fold....not knowing what will unfold, what minute we would make a change. who would come off and who would come on........fuckin hell we were predictable under rafa..... it wont be like that anymore....we have our liverpool back! im excited.

There seems to be some major panicking and knee-jerking going on at the moment because of player sales and I'm baffled by it. So, we have sold Benayoun and Insua so far. Benayoun was an average player who used to run down blind allys and didn't have the intelligence to know when to pass or shoot. He always chose the wrong choice. £6.5 mil for him will do thanks. Insua,yea, he was young, but he was also a fucking liability and shit at times. We're not in a position to hold on to youth players that could become good in the future, especially when a £5mil bid comes in for him. We are also set to sell Riera. He had a good three or four months, then was completely shit. Will not be missed. Around £4.5 -5 mil thanks. Kyrgiakos. He started off completely shit then settled down towards the end of the season. He done ok, but he's nothing special or worth crying about. £2.5 mil would be decent business. As for the replacements, we've already signed Jovanovic, so thats Riera covered. Plus, can play as a striker. Joe Cole is pretty certain by the looks of things, so thats an upgrade on Benayoun. We've been linked to that Wilson from Rangers who is meant to be shit hot, so he will be replacing Kyrgiakos. I am also sure we won't be starting the season with no left backs. Not to mention, we are heavily linked to that Loic Remy. Basically, people need to calm the fuck down. We have the replacements lined up and we'll be bringing in new, and better squad players in the coming weeks. We finished 7th last season, so it was obvious some of the shit has to leave first. I'm not complaining about the shit that has been shipped out so far.

I don't give a shit about Purslow, there I said it. I think for the past few months he's basically been victim of shit rumours, character assassinations and retrospective bullshit. Which has completely diverted the campaign to get the owners out. Chapter One: Failed Investment What is all this about failing to find investment. He found investment, Hicks didn't want it, what the fuck was he supposed to do? Purslow: Tom, I've found investment £100 Million for 40% Tom: Tell them to fuck off and I'm giving them 15% Purslow(on phone to investor): 15% for £100 Million *Phone Click* You see, what the fuck was he supposed to do. I'd imagine in some alternate reality we've got Purslow finding investment and still being called a cunt for it. Tell me was Purslow going to come out of this with any great respect? Chapter Two: Making footballing decisions This is a good one, and a new one. Making footballing decisions, he's been doing that for about a year you know? He secured the future of Kuyt and Reina. As well as giving Benitez a 5 year contract. Where was the outrage, where was the anger then? It's only an issue when the footballing decisions go against what you think is right. Benitez didn't share that outrage, he signed a 5 year fucking contract. Chapter Three: SOS You know what, that was a sad episode. Both parties came out of there looking stupid. 1. SOS lost any contacts they may have had within the club, because they couldn't apply discretion 2. Purslow was naive to fuck about the meeting Since then Purslow has been victim of some sort of character assassination, I don't know what beef SOS had with them. But I hope they would have applied discretion in his content, at least until they had figured out he's a bad liar. Chapter Four: Mural Ripping Mainiac You know what, I understand why people want Purslow out. He lied about the transfer fee in public, which is bad. But honestly, between fact and fiction can only recall one thing for certain he's actually done wrong. Since we got Hodgson in, all we've heard is scaremongering rumours about mural tearing, and playing being bought and sold being Hodgsons back, when in reality all these players wanted to leave anyway? You know what? i'm absolutely pissed off with the tangent the campaign as gone off to. The club is still owned by yanks and getting screwed by the banks, whilst we're all playing with our dicks over rumours and scaremongering about Purslow. He's become almost a mythical entity, with the facts few and far in-between. The sooner we realise that if we get rid of Purslow, we're going to have another rent a suit in, we're going to still be fucked, we're still going to be under debt, and to top it all off our best players still won't know what the fuck is going on. The club is being set up in a position to be sold, that much is clear. Why the fuck are we attacking that set up and not going for the people who matter, the banks and the fucking yanks? It's bullshit.
