I had the occasion last night to meet an ex youth team and reserve team player for Liverpool. I told him about this site and of the comments people were making. I also mentioned the last topic I posted about the rich business mans view and all that.
Well Did he put me right!
The guy asked me not to name him because this is just the kind of place were Gh regularily visits so beware folks.
Anyway this guy said GH is (and I quote)
" A self obsessed, arogant, egotisical, paranoid bully"
but he is a very very powerful and influential man. GH has friends inside the elite ruling classes of European and world football. Houlier is part of the uefa establishment and has the inside line on most decisions being made at the very highest level. Gh is not a man of the people, he's a yes man for the blokes who rule the people. We may all want rid of him but the directors at Liverpool can't afford to let this asset go.
Languishing in 4th or 5th place in the league is ok if your a manager with powerful friends.
There are a lot of people at Anfield who dislike GH but will never say a thing even after he goes.
What I realised talking with this guy is that we come here and give are opinions and it bloody well matters for nothing because alone we can't change a damn thing. Houlier will stay at Liverpool until he wants to leave or is carried out in a coffin.
Recently I've been signing off By pleading with Mr Houlier to leave, so guys I want to start a campaign right here and now. Can everyone out there who wants GH out join me in signing of their posts with
Please leave! Mr Houlier
