Bav, I think you are about to tap into something that I've gotten the feeling about since the appointing of Roy as the manager.  It almost seems that any choice made under current ownership will be cast aside as a poor decision. 

The hatred of the owners is actually swaying people negatively toward Roy and any players that are being considered for signing on.

I do like the fact that one of the myths about Roy Hodgson's appointment has pretty much been laid to rest.  The point of him being a "Yes Man" can be put to bed with his calling out of Purslow.

When did Hodgson lay anything to rest and " call out " Purslow ?

That IMO is Hodgson throwing Purslow under the Bus.

For a "Yes Man" wouldn't you equate that to calling Purslow out?

Fair enough.  I just read that as Roy's first volley towards the boardroom.

Well in fairness where the bloke goes on his holidays was a bit out of left field. There have been some bizarre criteria used before in order to dismiss some very good managers, and where he goes on holiday was easily as baffling of any of them.

I don't think Roy is s yes man to be honest now . I certainly think he's made  it chrystal clear what he's here to do and that is coach .In his last few interviews he's defo thrown a few verbel sideswipes at purslow . Now if purslow wants to be manager and decide who comes in and who goes . WE ALL NO WHERE TO LAY THE BLAME . I'm made up that Roy has set his stall out so early , CECIL will be in the sh!t soon enough . He is not a football manager or a football man . He is a banker and a LBO expert , he does not have the nouse or the footballing brain to make these decisions. Thanks to ROY though this will become apparent soon enough . Good for you Roy . Roy wanted Insua to stay , Christy sold him . Just the start of the process ROY , hold firm mate and stick to your guns.

I can understand some people being afraid for the future but its really like a kid being afraid of the dark. The unknown can be scary but mostly its all in the mind.
To call our manager sh'it is really quite sad. I hope you feel better and more positive soon because although what you say shows you care, its coming across that youre actually anti-LFC

I guess some "fans" only support the club when we're winning. Oh well, they always have Chelsea and Man City. Roy has my backing and I'm sure he will improve on last season's disgraceful performances and results.
