Just heard that Laws has resigned.

Any thoughts on who the next ones may be?
Houllier, Grant, Hodgson????????

Never supported any one team until 1953, then I saw the light. Before then I had watched Rovers (my first match), play Stoke with Matthews playing, Stanley, Burnley and Blackpool, but true to only one and it has been that way ever since. That is what democracy is all about, we can support who we want in whatever field.:):):)

Much as the demand is for Kenny (and he was good for the Club) he never really wanted to be in charge again, he did his stint & he did it well then he chose to step down. The fundamental problem lies with the team not the managers if the pieces aren't the right ones you can't fix the problem. It was the same at Newcastle with Shearer, public outcry for the man, but the rot had already set in so he couldn't change the outcome !

Much as I like Kenny & his wife, they've been loyal & unstinting in their work for the Club, so they don't deserve this added pressure being placed upon them ! Should Liverpool drop well so be it, maybe then reality will sink in & perhaps the stupidity will be seen for what it is !

Hodgson did not have the chance to do that - he inherited a load of inadequate players and did not have the time or resources to rid himself of the dross and bring in some decent players.;);):D

Hang on Dave.. didn't Dalglish apply for the Pool job in the summer but got a knock back?
Anyway I expect him being back in charge today at Old Trafford will have a good affect on pool players, at least they know no-one's gonna get the sack if they lose.. and it's also a massive lift for the 9,000 scousers we kindly let have tickets for the game. :)... really tough match this one!
