Topic: Roy's at it again

[Barney_Rubble]

Remember the Fulham result againt Juve, last seasons Europa, they won something like 5-4 on aggregate after at one point being 4-1 down. How i wish now that Fulham taken a right hammering that night.

Not remember them beating us 3-1 then ??

[L666KOP]

Did you know he  was he the Barclays Manager of the Year last year?

First I've heard of it.

And accolades here there and everywhere, once won an under 12's painting contest, fucker was 49 when he won it though.
Honestly, what are these accolades, a smattering of premiership titles, with a Champions league thrown in...

[Ultimate Bromance]

I genuinely hate him now.

[Parpello]

Roy, it was the media that got you the manager of the year award, the same media that got Ryan Giggs his player of the year award (how many games did he start that year), the same media that started banging the drum in August for Paul Scholes to be the next player of the year, the same fucking media who sadly our Board & a few fools listened to.

Roy, most of us knew you were never a good manager, certainly not of the calibre to manage a great club like ours, but i admit that i never realised how much of an embarrassment you actually are when you open your mouth.

[HFD]

Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson insists he is at Anfield "for the long haul" after coming under pressure following a poor start to his time at the club.

Hodgson told Sky Sports News: "You read these ridiculous websites that we have and resignation has never once entered my thought and, what's more, never will.

Oh bollocks...

Please Roy, take the hint

I'm gonna get sacked if I keep laughing at my desk! 

[topcorner2345]

pretty stupid comment from roy when your sitting at the bottom of the league

[robgomm]

I'm not happy with the man as manager, certainly not happy with the way the players are carrying themselves, looking forlorn and lost of ideas at times. I don't like the tactics, and I don't like some of the things that have been said in interviews. Worst of all, the football has been very poor at times and the results are desperate.

BUT this man is the current manager, he has worked as a professional in the game for many years, at all levels, he did go through a process to get the job, and I don't for a minute believe he is deliberately trying to do down the club.

It saddens me to see the mud slinging, the moaning and groaning and the personal comment coming out. I think that so many of us got so angry and worked up about the two muppets and now that they're gone that frustration has been directed at the manager. Things are tough right now, on the field. Results are desperate, times that virtually none of us have known as Liverpool supporters.

I'm not saying we should all agree with what he does or says, but treat him with the respect he deserves.
I didn't think it was time for Rafa to go, like so many here, I also had other ideas about who should succeed him, but many reds I know were made up at the prospect of Roy, reds I respect, who know what they're talking about.

It's not been good enough, but I've always and will always believe that the role of supporters is not to act as the baying pack when there's a scent of blood. If the football and results continue like this there is no doubt there will be a change. Sooner or later. The new owners will determine when the time is up, when they feel they have the compotencies to make that call and appoint someone of the right calibre to take up the reins.

For now though, this fella is doing his best (I believe) He's not deliberately devisive, and he wants the club to succeed. He didn't take over in anything resembling ordinary circumstances, and it's only been two weeks since we didn't know if we were going to get bought, put in administration, flogged to some shark.

I guess I'm saying, don't forget how much worse things were just two weeks ago, and let's keep things in perspective. He's the manager and it's not happening for him. He's not done himself too many favours, but ultimately he wants the same things we all do. Not like T&G, he doesn't deserve the same vilification they got. He's on our side, ultimately. Give the man a break.

I have no doubt I'll get slated for that. Such is life.

Very well said! The bold bit is the worst part of the 'legacy' left by H&G. I never knew LIverpool fans as bitter and angry but that's what we are right now and we're looking for targets to aim at. It's sad but it will get better. For some Hodgson going would make it better but I think that's short-sighted. He does DESPERATELY need results to start coming soon, though, and we'll see where we are at Christmas.

[woozie]

TROPHIES>ACCOLADES

[koptician]

With a current Board of Ian Ayres and NESV we may be a little light on decision making power at the moment so I doubt whther anything is imminent - but Frank won't be around for long.

Are you feeling okay?

[rossipersiempre]

If only Slovenia had of beaten England...

[GoldenGloves25]

Fuck off all the "see until Christmas" talk. You'll regret it when we're bottom, 9 points below West Ham.

[koptician]

If you haven't seen enough by now then you'll never be convinced.  He is easily the worst manager we've ever had...on par with Souness.  FORGET results, it's his manner of setting up the team, even Ged wasn't so defensive.

[Ycuzz]

Is it just me or does the topic title elicit a mental image of Roy dressed as Brittany Spear in a school uniform, warbling "Oops I did it again".

You'll thank me for that mental image later.

I'll thank you with a crowbar!

[rossipersiempre]

I genuinely hate him now.

I'm going with "despise" myself.

[Baz Smythe]

Keep checking on here for any bit of news, Pellegrini spotted in Anfield, Hodgson in meeting with Henry anything at all

[Gazza-LFC]

Roy, take the fucking hint.

[Libertine]

he has worked as a professional in the game for many years, at all levels

that's the thing though - he hasn't. he's spent the vast majority of his career at small clubs or in small, insignificant leagues.

he is simply incapable (at his age and after his 35 blah blah years of management) of changing his mentality to that of a big club - it's evident in his expectations, his tactics, his approach, his results and his comments.

expecting anything to change now is simply delusional.

[Andy @ Allerton]

I'm going with "despise" myself.

He's so bad that Manchester United and Everton fans in work are embarrased to say how laughable Liverpool are at the moment. It would be like kicking a new born puppy.

[HarryLabrador]

Hodgson told Sky Sports News: "You read these ridiculous websites that we have and resignation has never once entered my thought and, what's more, never will.

The thing is, Roy, our new owner reads these sites you call 'ridiculous', and I hope they are reading them now! Stupid old man.

[ashleyrose-66]

If you want that sort of news, head to KopTalk... Duncan Oldham will oblige you with a daily dose of bullshit - for a fee of course! 

[koptician]

Not remember them beating us 3-1 then ??

Is that all you've got?  One  solitary result against us especially in a season where so many things changed and we were in turmoil both on and off the field?  That's your pathetic argument?

[JP!]

At this precise moment I'd rather have Karl Pilkington as manager

[pooley]

What! Roy has suggested that some forums contain total bollocks!!!  never! sack the bastard 

[ShortyKop]

Is that all you've got?  One  solitary result against us especially in a season where so many things changed and we were in turmoil both on and off the field?  That's your pathetic argument?

** BAN ALERT! BAN ALERT!! **

[L666KOP]

Is right. Except they'll invoke it 7 days before on the 5th to coincide with the fireworks and Chelsea on the Sunday.

Is probably right...

[Rafa_La]

Ah but do you think he can lead us to the 19th title?  Your user name is Nineteen, no?

Huge Manc fan that openly says he hates scousers... Pretty much Roy to be fair, only with a head like a fucking orange.

[Wesley Pipes]

Can we merge all the Roy threads into one big "Get out roy!" thread?

[koptician]

What! Roy has suggested that some forums contain total bollocks!!!  never! sack the bastard 

Yes, that's the only reason of course, forget the shite style of play, the mistreatment of players, the utter lack of defence for our club and players in face of aggression from others, the abysmal position we're in...none of that matters does it.

[The Grinch]

So basically it is everybody under the sun's fault except for Roy's and no matter how bad it gets and no matter how much he embarrasses the Club and himself on the pitch and in the media he won't do the honorable thing and resign EVER.

Why doesn't that surprise me about you Roy.

You took the UAE job and claimed the players were lazy and uncoachable, given that and the fact that you were in the supposed best years of your Coaching career You quit Right.

Nope you stuck it out for nearly two even though you only won an embarrassing 23% of your games, taking your tax free wages right up until they fired you for finishing an embarrassing fifth in the World renowned Gulf Cup.

You walked out on Copenhagen who had treated you absolutely brilliantly to take the Udinese job, unfortunately you quickly realised YOU had made a horrendous mistake. So you did the right thing and go to the Chairman and held your hands up.

Erm not quite, You are a fighter after all and it is NEVER your fault. So sod that for a game of soldiers, you decided you would use the press and blamed everyone under the Sun for YOUR failures. Culminating in turning on the Chairman who had given you the chance and laughably blamed him for giving YOU the job.

Guess what you got Sacked AGAIN and got your lovely payoff.

So No I am not one bit surprised that you are up to your old tricks again Roy. Blaming everyone under the sun for YOUR ineptness and making frankly inflammatory and bizarre statements to the press leaving your employer very little option but to sack you.

Take a look at Gordon Strachan and do the right thing for once in your life, admit your part in Liverpool's demise and fall on your sword whilst you still have a shred of reputation and dignity left.

[Wallingtonian]

Not remember them beating us 3-1 then ??

................when we had two players sent off.  Don't overlook that fact.  We'd dominated play in the first half and went one down to their first attack.  Torres equalised and then we had two players sent off, Carragher gave away one of his customary daft penalties etc etc.  I was at the match.  It was one of those games.  Fulham still played crap but it's easy to pick holes in a team when you've got two more players on the pitch

[Greg]

At this precise moment I'd rather have Karl Pilkington as manager

Is he available?

Roy Hodgson is like Frank Spencer with a colostomy bag.

[koptician]

English not your strongest subject?

a bit too wound up to see the sarcasm today mate.

[JP!]

English not your strongest subject?

I'm starting to wonder if you're actually enjoying seeing us be this shit, with a manager who's a fucking embarrasment.

[rafathegaffa]

Unbelievable.
What a tetchy bitch. A 7th place finish would not be acceptable - it cost Rafa his job. A 10th place finish would not be acceptable... so go figure Roy.
We're an embarrassment.

[stewy17]

He still fucking here then?

Gutted.

It used to be I woke up every morning preying that Hicks and Gillett were gone, now I wake up every morning hoping that this al' cretin has packed his bags.

Come on NESV, pull your finger out, sack the rat.

[Buzz Killington]

I bumped into a bluenose mate a couple of weekends ago, talking about the derby, expressed my wish that they beat us to which he nodded with sympathy..."to get rid of Hodgson yeah?". When even the bitters feel pity for you....I mean, can we sink any lower?
