Backroom Staff

[Silver Sean]

Well they have finally added Rodger's backroom staff to the official website. There are now 21 backroom staff. 21! What the fuck happened to football? Sadly we still have Acterberg there to stop Pepe from diving, or maybe trying to save a shot. Showing my age but I still wish the dugout had manager, assistant manager, physio (magic sponge man) and Sergeant major/shouter and a couple of others.

Neuroticism. That's what encourages such a huge entourage. Managers sit there twitching, desperately trying to think of what else he can have studied to make life less unpredictable. Some people stock up on cold medicines, Brendan stocks up on kit management co-ordinators and spotty match analysts. I'm particularly fascinated by what James Malone, the 'sports science graduate,' does, other than sit alone in a room and point at his sports science graduation certificate.

Yes, that one foxed me too. All a bit crazy really. As a player I think I'd be mightily confused as to what the hell all these different faces do around the club. Bloated corporate bullshit in my opinion.

I like the sound of Barry Drust, and the fact that we have a strength coach

I am glad we have Purple Aki aka Sylvan the soft tissue massage expert as without him we would have our squad suffering from muscle cramps.

Glad you left the thread if your understanding of it is so poor. Enjoying the drinks and sarnies thanks gkmacca.

I was neither whinging, no whining. Merely pointing out that I feel it is a bit excessive that we have 21 backroom staff. It was a good-natured, light-hearted start of a hopefully intelligent discussion.
It must be amazing to be you.

He can't be THAT desperate to get rid of Carroll?

 

[Le Chacal]

Hopefully, Rushie and Robbie can have their little word about that...
By the way, I didnt even know God was in the backroom staff, shows how much I care at the moment..

 

[Avmenon]

Ambassadorial thingy, me thinks Lech.

 

[Ryan]

20 years on and Robbie is still applying wet look gel in his hair.

 

[Red Astaire]

20 years on and I still love the guy. My favourite Liverpool player ever.

 

[King Binny]

With Fowler's interest in managment, he'll be an interesting addition to the backroom staff. Imagine Carra, Gerrard and Fowler in a management team. 😛

Now robbie, you'll play just here in the central striker role, Ian, pay attention, you'll be coming on at about 70 mins in.
