I may have been dreaming but i thought i read on here that Ayre was to compile a progress report last week.

Looks like he must have done anyway as i doubt they are doing this on a hunch or gut feeling.

I hear Elsie the tea lady is next. The catering manager gave her orders and the money to buy Tetley Teabags because they were a massive step up from the Lidl Own Brand Teabags everyone was used to. However, the silly old twat went out and overspent on Liptons Fine English Breakfast Teabags. She thought that overspending on them would mean that her mugs of tea would be such a success, next year the budget would be increased so she could shop in Harrods. Unfortunately, things didn't work out quite well and even though the odd mug was rather tasty, overall, Liptons are more of an acquired taste and have a habit of being strong in some smaller mugs but weak in other bigger mugs. So now she's been fucked off, it's back to Plan A this summer. Buy Tetleys and make sure every fucking mug of tea is as good at the beginning of the box as it is at the end of the box.

So results haven't been good enough and neither have the signings. Kenny is responsible for the first team and choose all the players to buy(if you believe some people overrulling Comolli). So why has Comolli been given the push, For the fee's he agreed? It can't be results or the actual players we brought unless he's being used as a scapegoat.

This tbf. that statement from Werner is so full of contradictions

I've just read Maddock's article on the mirror website and this part has angered me;

"As Director of Football Strategy (as he was then), he takes ultimate responsibility for the arrival of Dalglish, for the decision to sell Fernando Torres and sign Andy Carroll, and for the planning behind Liverpool’s current salary structure which sees them with a wage bill virtually the same as Manchester City."

What is this idiot talking about? Our wage bill is nowhere near City's?

Maddock is a prize plank, who has been cut of by LFC and has to make shite up to fuel his agenda against the club.

No need to go on a hunch or gut feeling though, I'm pretty sure FSG have been watching our games since Christmas.

Must be more than that mate, id assume they are not that knee jerk. Fucking hope not.

It;s a long term job, one that's supposed to outlive multiple managers. He must have been fucking this up for a while and for whatever reason they reached the point of no return this week.

My guess is a relationship breakdown with Kenny or Ayre or Both.
From here on in its all FSG's doing. Good or bad they will stand or fall by the decisions they have made in the summer of 2012. Lets hope they have gotten it right.

Good God what a shambles.Why do this a few days before the biggest match of the season? FSG looking like a bunch of clowns.

If they sack Kenny two days before the game then yes. The owners are over and making changes to the non-playing staff before the end if the season.

Not really good preparation for a big game.
In fact, I think it is. The players need to snap out of the current predicament, and what a better way to see slaps all around you and you know you might be next?

Aside from that, someone raised the issue with Bruckner in a separate thread a while back, and I have my doubts about him. So many muscle injuries (forget the unavoidable collision ones) only happened an Newcastle before... I don't know much about medicine, but something doesn't loo right in that department.

I agree mate, I dont think this is that knee-jerk though, if they had made these changes after the say the Arsenal game or prior to the 3-0 derby then that would have been.  I think they realize that this summer has to be spot on, targets are identified and with the Euro's in the summer we have to strike early.  It is here where a breakdown in relationship has probably happened.

Some people said earlier that it was announced by the club before the press were about to release the story. Better the club announce the decision now then the press announce it on Saturday morning and totally disrupt  our preparations I guess.
Hmmmm the mythical ITK. Not so sure but who knows hey and now with the Doc going is it more of a cull de force as opposed to a heading the tittle tattlers off at the pass.

Surely you realise it's a joke?

Why? Where were Comolli and Bruckner going to play on Saturday?  As I said in the Comolli thread - the press will be all over the sackings and the focus is off the players.

The owners are showing decisive strong leadership and will be looking for the same from Kenny and the team.

Well said!

Is there some sort of rhythm or reason for all this? Who is orchestrating it? Looks completely fucking amateur either way.

The reason is a massive, massive underachievement this season.

Why does it look amateur? I think it sends a pretty good, strong message actually. Failure in this degree won't be tolerated, and heads will roll accordingly.

Quick summary then. :P
If it's broken, fix it. Comolli overspent. The way he handled the Suarez situation wasn't great. They also don't feel he's the right man to take them forward.
The owners are looking for the future as the season is basically done. [We're only playing for the FA cup now.]
It was leaked that Comolli was going to go, so they decided to do it today.
Werner's interview saying they have the full backing of Dalglish was a huge relief as we all know he's under strife.

Oh, and the doctor's gone.
