so the last 10 years have been good have they or 15 for that matter?

Lack of reaction? Bollox, there has not been a lack of reaction from certain poster all through the season, calling for the managers head at every available chance, boring us into a coma with the same repetitive digs, taking the p!ss out of OUR manager and pontificating that what he's achieved is irrelevant because we have not won the League yet.

Maybe some of us were upset at the result and couldn't stomach reading the forum straight afterwards because we all know the same purile abuse and sarcasm would be rife.(its so easy to criticise, and then be overjoyed with a self satisfying post to say i was right all along, well done, gold star.)

Nobody who supports Rafa has said that this is anything but a poor season, but looking for answers, thinking outside of the box, assessing the size of the task means that you 'wear rose-tinted specs' or are 'pro Rafa' etc.etc. well f uck off :censored:

, its a bad season, thats all, not the end of the world, i will let Rafa have one because IMO this will be his first poor season, OVERALL, not individually in the league, or CL, or League cup. As i see it the repercussions of what we know about G&H and whatever else that may be going on behind the scenes has obviously had an effect on our team, IT HAS TO HAVE HAD, IT IS HUMAN NATURE, and to think otherwise is retarded.

Regarding the game, i'm lost for words really, we had lots of attempts, and chances and the game should have been beyond doubt, the fact that we made so many openings was a good thing, why we couldn't finish them i don't know, i suppose we could blame Rafa for that too.

There was a time on this forum that i was the only one saying that Rafa should not be the manager of our club......how times change.

This is our bad season? What was last year then, and Benitez' first year? 37 points behind in 04/05 and 21 last year. They just average seasons are they? Forget a good cup run in Europe, what's he done in the league? We got rid of Houllier because he COULDN'T win us the league (the one thing EVERY Liverpool fans wants more than anything) Benitez is proven he can't win us the league either, so he has to go.

2005 champions league after inherating cr.ap squad from houllier.
2006 Fa cup Rafa has won us .and 3rd in d league ??
Last season he got us to the champions league final again and again 3rd !
You can't turn into a league winning side overnight .
specially with the strenghts of the squads that the likes of manure and chelsea have got .
people should be more realistic .
give things time .
RAFA WILL GET US BACK TO WHERE WE BELONG > THE TOP

FFS you are either on a wind up, or thick, the season has four competitions, not ONE. We have done well OVERALL in each of the past 3 Years, that is FACT. Go on tell me the league is our bread and butter, blah blah blah.

redsince2001, where were you in 2000 then? by your name i can at least guess you are at least 7 years old right?

We need the premier league. you've obviously liked us since the uefa cup in 2001, but we need progression as the top 3 are running away with it and embarressing us

(sorry, scrubs style sarcasm)

We did well in all cup competitions under Houllier yet he's given a hard time, ESPECIALLY BY THOSE WHO LOVE BENITEZ

any difference?

Houllier never lost a cup final....FACT, Benitez by his own admition has lost three...FACT

Houllier two more League Cups than Benitez....FACT
Houllier same amount as FA Cups as Benitez....FACT
Houllier same amount of European trophies as Benitez....FACT

I'm sure Houllier was given a bad time by the fickle crew from day one, as i said easy to criticise, and add a proviso, I'd love him to prove me wrong. If i could be bothered i'm sure theres a thread along the lines of ' We'll never win the League with Gerard style long ball' around Sept 2000.

I'm not concerned with comparisons, they are not different Clubs FFS, whatever Houllier achieved was great, and good for us. I don't have a clue what your point is.
