So Houllier shows a bit of passion and you have a go. He says nothing and you have a go. Shouldn't expect much else from a fan with "houllier out plz"

Bottom line for you is that YOU have made your mind up, as maybe many others have (myself included) but why does everything the man does, says or even thinks be so criticised. He's defended his record which is third to only Arsenal and Mancs and to be honest after all the ****** he has taken this season i'm not surprised he;'s ahd a go !!!!

He hasn't made a bad signing since 2002, he's got us into the CL despite the worse run of injuries to major players for years and we have kept 10 clean sheets in the last 12 games to do it .

I'm not happy either but I'd give him another season ,maybe he will prove a lot of fans wrong ?

When was this interview you speak of? Will I see it on Sky Sports News? I haven't got lfc.tv anymore.

by **Dalglish** » Fri May 14, 2004 10:47 pm

I heard a litle just on The radio and he was having a real go.
As i said previously i don't blame him !!!!! He's had to listen all season to the media speculation, the fans moaning and the players underperforming. I think he;'s just let off steam to be honest and apart from Ranieri has more right than anybody to do that !!!!!!

by **adayinthelife** » Sat May 15, 2004 4:28 am

Nobody is denying his right to let off steam but he looks to me like a man on the brink.
He has tried all the excuses and just cannot look himself in the mirror and take the justified criticism that is coming his way.
He basically attacked the tried and trusted Liverpool way by saying how much he doesnt want to be a part of it.
He is on the edge and all he needs is a little push and hopefully we will all see the back of him and his madness.

I would sympathise but for the fact that with his recent record - spending and success - he should have fvcked off by now. He may only be third in terms of success to Arsenal and manure, but that is largely because no other team has won the Premiership and most other teams are inconsistent/*****.

manure - three consecutive Premiership titles & the bogus treble
Arsenal - two doubles, an FA Cup and this season's (unbeaten?) league triumph

Liverpool - two worthless cups, an FA Cup and UEFA Cup
Leicester - two worthless cups
Chelski - one FA Cup
Blackburn - one worthless cup
Tottenham - one worthless cup

Since Leciester are the only other team not to have won the league with more than one cup success, the competition is hardly stiff for third most successful. We should be third most successful in terms of league finishes with the amount Houllier has thrown at it, chelski may well overtake us there though

Back to l'ecole my boy, please God.

If hes not careful he,ll have a heart attack ( Whops hes already had one ) , no i dont wish that on him at all . He finally showed some passion for the cause but stated he knew Liverpool would make 4th place ( i think not ?) .
He doesnt want to play 60,s or 70,s football either ? , doesnt want to win all and dominate as in those years , or dosent want to play old fashioned style football ? . They will have to give him his chance now hes made 4th spot , but if he can get 4th playing like they have , if he gets things right and gets the right formula we should win the world cup .

Mr Houllier :angry:

The man is damned if he does and damned if he doesn;t

So what , he shows a little bit of passion and annoyance at being undermined week in , week out by what basically are fans living in the past. He has constant similarities drawn with previous GREAT maangers(Shanks, Paisly etc....)

His record is third only to Man U and Arsenal who have matched a 115 year record today by going unbeaten all season, something neither Liverpool or Man U or anyone else has managed to do. We are inferior financially to Man U and Chelsea by a long way. He's bought well in the last year but suffered a catalogue of injuries to key players this season.

Despite this he has managed to qualify for the CL and admitted its not good enough for a club with our ambitions.

You can play with statistics and make them say what you want but in the final analysis he has stuck at it despite a life threatening illness and constant criticism. For that alone he deserves a little more respect than many in here give him !

Noticed your POST time Shilton Red. 3.20PM on the 15th , ........ Haven't yuou anything better to do when a MATCH is being played by your beloved club than to crack jokes about GH having a heart attack

Out of order ..........

by **Paul C** » Mon May 17, 2004 1:46 pm

Yeah I saw that when I got home from work on Friday, I haven't seen GH so p1ssed off for ages and to walk out of the press conference was quite a strong stand, I do feel sorry for the guy cos at heart is he a red and stood on the Kop in the 60's, I think he is too proud to admit that things aren't going right but I think that if big changes don't happen this season that he will have to stand down

by **dawson99** » Mon May 17, 2004 1:57 pm

im sticking by hmi next term. this si his last chance tho, lets just hope he really goes for it offensively this time eh
come on u reds!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by **stmichael** » Mon May 17, 2004 2:03 pm

we played really attacking football at the start of the season but for some reason he stopped it after the arsenal game at home. even smicer was playing well at that stage. everton and blackburn away were prime examples.

all we want is for players to be allowed to express themselves, rather than being assigned to a certain system and shape. that is what arsenal do so well.

"Houllier! Houllier! Houllier!"

I don't see what the man has done wrong, he got you within about 30 points of Arsenal with the likes of Pongole, Diouf, Diao, Biscan and Baros. All of these are quality players and well worth the ££tensofmillions you paid for them.

Gerard Houllier is a a football genious and you should be grateful to have him there. :;):
