I didn't see if Carroll did anything as I was outside having a cigarette
The fella Reina headbutted made the most of it but he couldn't have done so if Reina hadn't reacted how he did.

I didn't know where to post this and didn't want to start a new thread. But there's been repeated quoting of "the Vlad decision" as legitimizing Kenny's continued tenure as manager and I just wanted to add this:
Considering his legendary status and our appalling luck early in the season, wanting to give him an additional year to turn things around might be reasonable. But equally so is the desire to have a new man placed in charge for an injection of new ideas. Surely no one thinks that there's only one right answer to this question with so much riding on any decision to stick with the incumbent or turn to a new man.
I don't consider myself part of the "microwave generation" but beginning with the Suarez saga, it seemed like if you didn't profess unhesitating support for the club/Kenny/the players (save the usual scapegoats) you're treated like a wind up merchant on this forum. You get told you're a cunt because you're sheep buying into a whiskeynose-FA conspiracy, or that you'd get thumped in the stands if you expressed similar sentiment 40 years ago. It's extremely condescending and it does nothing for the discourse on this forum to have one dismiss another as "intransigent" or some other flippant characterization.
There was contact. No doubt about it. pepe acted foolishly and deserved the red card.
I think that he's been on a very bad run recently - many of the goals he conceded proved to me that he does not have that passion anymore. He looks "turned off" to me and today's game was another brick in the wall.
Sadly, I can see him leaving in the summer unless some dramatic change takes place. We'll be losing yet another world class player.

Good post.
Criticising him is one thing, but the personal abuse some of our fans have been giving him is completely unjustified and cuntish. IT is possible to criticise Kenny without disrespecting everything he has done for the club, but some posters have failed to grasp that.

That is an excellent post mate.
It will probably receive a few "likes" a few more "good post" comments and then just get generally ignored
A top class post. You should post more often.
I assume this is generally direct at me (you can deny it if you want, but it's rather obvious based on the two 'quotes').
I don't think the bold statement is really accurate ... but I'd rather not get back into this Suarez/Evra debate. I find it odd that in trying to be so fair in your post, you've neglected to mention the 'racist' 'aryan brotherhood' 'blind as a bat' etc etc terms that were thrown out at the 'other' side. I guess that wasn't condescending and did nothing to provide discourse. In fact, I tried to debate something with Ryan today Kenny related - and instead of discourse, I got non-stop jokes and piss takes.
Alas, I don't really care anymore. I am reminded by AthenR's post earlier this week - I don't 'see' most of the stuff people see in matches anyways, so I'm not going to bother! 🙂

fair enough but is that acceptable ? I don't think so but many including Kenny seem to think it is .
Anfield cat on Twitter: Rihanna should start dating one of the Liverpool players, they don't beat anyone.
I don't share the general approval for i_rushie's post, which is as overstated as many of the things with which it takes issue. There were plenty of reasonable criticisms of Kenny which did not get the kind of reply to which it refers. That reply was reserved for the kneejerkers, who richly deserved it.
Yeah, it was a good post but was completely naive and one dimensional without an equally good reply from refugee. I don't think Vlad was ever against people debating, disagreeing or being critical of some decisions; on the contrary he was in favour of it. What has become an obsession with so many "members" on here now is to slam the manager rather than criticise his decisions. Kenny, of course, has done more for this club than anyone on this board ever has or ever will. Kenny, of course, loves this club more than anyone on this board ever has or ever will.
That doesn't make him perfect but it should afford him some respect. The fact that so many people have been utterly incapable of expressing themselves while still demonstrating respect for a legend has been the sad part and a blight on this forum. Where it was, originally, a place for debate - robust at times - it now degenerates into an excuse for insults, threats and personal issues. The actual issues now get ignored, swamped in the rush of posters eager to attack the manager or the person rather than the issues; it's like they actually think this will somehow make a name for themselves or something.
I hope Vlad starts posting regularly again and just lets the rubbish posters and their ignorant bilge simply run off his back. Their hardly worth listening to let alone being upset by.
I also didn't think he was that great. He held onto the ball far too long (Gerrard made a great run in behind the defence late in the second half and he refused to release the pass and ended up hitting a tame shot instead.). Even the good through ball he played to Suarez (I think) was called offside because he waited to long to release the ball. Granted it was nice to see him get a chance, but the praise for his performance is unjust.
Was he more noticeable than henderson usually is?
You'd notice his bald head from space.
You already know the answer to that without having seen the match.
Btw if calling me WUM makes you feel better then so be it.
I myself feel a bit wound up by the ones who still think we should give Kenny another year because honestly I think some of you are deluded.
There's absolutely no justifiable reason for him to stay except for emotional reasons.

Mate I would be on the opposite side of the fence to iRushie and still think that Kenny should be given next season to prove himself.
I liked his post because, despite not agreeing with what he had to say, he said it in a measured manner without resorting to insulting other posters or posts because he realises his, like all of ours, are just opinions.
It is a pity that you had to have a pop at his post and say it was naive and one dimensional as I believe those comments were uncalled for and tarnished an otherwise decent responce.
Count - how was his response not one-dimensional though?
That's implicit 100% of the time.
