Just spoke to my mate who works at LFC TV channel. He says Roy's interview yesterday was so srange they are not allowed to show it or post any transcripts. he says that when asked about the Napoli game he says its an utter distraction and waste of time for him.

He also said that Napoli fans were deliquents who hurl bricks at the coach. Went onto talk about his time when visiting Napoli with Inter saying that a mother and daughter gave the team middle finger coming out of a church.

Mate seems to think his interview was incredibly strange, controversial and backwards. Its been banned.

from the liverpool way. seriously, roy is just coming across as someone who is now begging to be sacked.

Sounds like he's knows he's gonna be sacked if he's acting that way and he thinks the game is a 'distraction'.

I don't see any point in waiting beyond the Napoli game, once that's over we should just cut our losses.

Haha.

Roy has been remarkably awful. Even his fiercest detractors could never have imagined he would be this bad.

Sometimes I get the feeling that when I took all that ketamine and acid and watched Apocalypse Now in that flat in Milton Keynes after that rave I never actually came round, and this has all been a dream, a dream in which every Liverpool manager eventually turns into Kurtz and just starts talking massive shit, like Marlon Fucking Brando.

I have at last found out that the white liquid in the bottle is in fact milk.I therefore resign from my position as managing director of lfc and will now be distributing milk to the players to replace the uterus liquid that strenghens the bones of injured players.
 
At least Hodgson had grey hair and was already a bit of an old duffer to begin with though, look at what happened to Houllier and Rafa... A heart attack and ageing 20 years (with a mid-life crisis goatee thrown in), respectively!

Ha ha ha.

If that mystery Hodgson interview is true, I fear he's going to be hospitalised after being sacked by us. Poor old duffer, if only he'd stayed at Fulham...

Hide that from Red Shrek.

He goes a bit mental whenever Hiddink is mentioned.

To replace Purslow? 😱
 
I thought that Roy done a sterling job at Fulham. I wanted King Kenny as first choice and was gutted when he wasn't appointed.

I thought ok, let's give Roy a chance and get behind him. However, after the first 2 games he looked woefully out of his depth.

Can't wait for him to get the boot!

I suppose, it's new owners, new board, new manager.

Fresh start all round.

New players would be nice too.

*Runs through thread screaming......
 
Glad that the new owners seem to be listening to the right voices and making all the correct decisions so far in the rebuilding process.

Time to remove the next blood clot from the club after getting rid of Purslow.

Forward, Roy.
 
I have a feeling that Purslow and Broughton always intended to step down after the takeover or debt reduction was completed. It seems that was clearly their remit.

If that is true, their refusal to give the temporary manager job to Kenny makes a bit of sense. If this was Kenny instead of Roy Hodgson in the spotlight right now, we would be looking at a 100% revamp of all managerial staff - playing/non-playing. That is a bit much...

I'm happy Kenny is around.

Are you referring to Purslow as a 'blood clot'?
 
I'm not sure what people's problem with Purslow is. He had a hand is Rafa leaving but after a 7th place finish, let's be honest that Rafa had to go. Roy wasn't what we needed and I'm sure his resignation has something to do with our current plight although it could simply be that he has already fulfilled the mandate he was brought in to.

did he? a proven manager that had one truly poor season (I that I would snatch your hand off now if it were offered) compared to his previous seasons which gave us regular CL football. rafa didn't 'have to go' at all.
 
He did have to go. Just because we're even shitter now doesn't change that. The squad had the air of a religious instruction class in a boarding school where the master is bumming half the kids.
 
Yes. He did neil. He alienated the squad and forced out some of our better players. He was year 6 in a 5 year plan. or squad WAS getting worse. He was done
 
it was a poor season but rafa has previous of turning poor seasons around, here and valencia.

as for the players who supposedly wanted him out I'm pretty much getting sick of their attitude in general anyway.
 
I was more sick of rafas nonsense like for like subs.
The players seemingly didn't want to play for him like they don't want to play for roy. It's all irrelevant anyway
