Its like buying Ade Akinbiyi..and then saying give him time as it took Ian Rush a season to start banging them in.

I will ALWAYS support people who are good enough (hence Gerrard who has carried us for a decade i will support to the hilt, unlike some gobsh'ites) while those who ain't good enough i want rid.

Bill Shanky paid big money for Tony Hately and then discarded him after a solitary season as he wasn't good enough. He didnt support garbage.. and he'd turn in his grave to know there are those that do.

Yes we do give some people too much time but the difference is, no matter how much time we give them we always support them. As Shanks did with Tony Hately, he realised (quickly) he wasn't suited to our gameplan and got shut of him but he supported during his entire Liverpool career.

That's the point. Any manager managing this club gets our support from start to finish of their reign likewise any player playing for this club gets our support from the day they sign to the day they leave.

Ok...yes yes... we haven't lost a whopping 16 times this season, we havent been dominated and toothless in losses at Portsmouth, Fulham, Sunderland, Wigan..we werent diabolical at Wolves and Stoke, we werent dumped out of the group stage of the CL for the first time since Diao and Cheyrou's 2002 team, Lyon didnt have a staggering 17 shots at Anfield, we weren't outplayed at home to Reading in the FA Cup who didnt carve us open umpteen times or miss two one on ones before scoring twice, our central midfield hasnt been outclassed and dominated repeatedly this season, and the creativity from there has been sublime, some of the football we have played has been a joy.. the pass and move ethos of the club has been there for all to see (reminding us of images of shanks side to side hand motion on the bench in the '74 Cup final), lucas has been Cruyff-esque, we really go for the jugular when we face anyone and impose/dictate our game with attacking flair, we are the entertainers... and we have lived up to the name of this great club.

Indeed gentlemen.

amen brother, but apparently this is the standard of footballer that true Liverpool fans want and we are clueless and disrespectful for wanting LFC to play good football.

You are truely a knob-head - how f'ukin dare you ..you bitter twitsed sh*t - go and support the LA Galaxy - u good for nothing so-called supporter.

Your either in it, for better- for worse for the long and short haul or you can f'uck of

*facepalm*

Its fans like you who deserve failure.. because you support it.

The reasons ManU, Real Madrid, Barca, AC Milan, Bayern...are still at the top, is they demand to be there, we used to..but have long since stopped. When the team doesnt perform the fans let them know it...there is no drop in standards because it isn't condoned. Difference is we do condone it... infact we sing songs about players who 20 years ago wouldn't get in our reserves.

Tony Hately is used as a prime example of the standards Shankly set..he got rid first misson. No hanging about. He did not support inadequacy. He would be devastated that a player such as lucas is wearing the all red strip that he created. He raised the bar so that his ilk wouldnt be tolerated.

I support failure? No, I support Liverpool Football Club and if my f*****g club is failing then so f*****g be it but I'll continue supporting my club because that's what a supporter does. I support my club through thick and thin, not just sit and sulk and reminisce about days gone by.

If you're not prepared to fight for this club through the bad times then f**k off for good because we're a club built on standing by our boys. Not slagging them off at every chance we get. That's not support, support is being there at all times not only the good.

So yes I'll support failure if my club is failing with as much love for my club as I have when we're succeeding. Maybe you're one of those fans who changes their club every week depending on the results at the weekend. I'm not, I'm a fan of Liverpool Football Club no matter what. Failure or success, my heart is with Liverpool Football Club.

And you keep talking about Shankly, do you remember what inspired Shanks to success throughout his 15 years at the club? Us. The fans. We sucked the ball into the net back in the early 60s to get a failing Liverpool side out of the second division to the greatest side on this island.

Did we turn on Shanks or his boys? No we helped him through the difficult part of his Liverpool career and we went on to greater success. So do yourself a f*****g favour and help Rafa and his boys through the difficult patch of their Liverpool career to ensure they go onto further successes.

He used to be LFC manager, and you spelled his name incorrectly.
