wow! very brave.

“The owners are not popular with the fans; the fans want new owners, they want new investment. The gloom, if there is any, is never really going to lift until that day comes.

 

[manwithnoname]

I think he's said this before, but nice one anyway Woy

 

[Hansern]

Fortunatly this will happen sooner rather than later.

If we manage to build a good squad by selling dead wood etc, then maybe with investment we could acutally strengthen further in the january window.

Feeling posititve for a change about the future. Good work Roy, you've started excellent.

 

[Y1]

The dust has hardly settled since he joined us and what he said is a massive massive call! *hats off*

 

[Frogfish]

I would ignore that, we already know for sure that Roy is a YES man.

 

[keniget]

Well, if what we read is to be believed... the owners are pretty much out of the picture and he works for Broughton and Purslow. So it's not really stepping out on a limb.

haha, Roy Roy w.o.y is a YES man, but Roy apparently isn't 🙂


but Keni, would you dare dare offend the owners even though you work for the appointed management?

 

[Hansern]

Still, he has said what we all think and want to hear. Plain and simple. I like that.
Rafa would have said something about working hard, a lamp and a table, the owners not giving him full control and then talked about Fergie.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Straightforward talking. He's not very good at being a "stooge" is he?

 

[King Binny]

And seemingly not worried abt the possibility of losing his job due to change of ownership. (sorry for posting similar thread, admins pls help to delete/close. thks!)

 

[RolandG]

Roy is a straight shooter and his brutal honesty is refreshing. That's the Liverpool Way!

 

[Farkmaster]

Enjoy the honeymoon Roy, and long may it continue. It seems easy to be Liverpool manager at this point. Everyone is so shell shocked that you get credit for stating the obvious, and selling the obvious.

That's a little rough ... considering Rafa was more than happy to hold on to at least half of those now on their way or being touted.

Well, to be fair, doing the obvious is a bit of a refreshing change round these parts

 

[Woland]

I'm going on RAWK, there'll be some boss cyberfights underway about this.

Hear hear!

I look forward to Roy making the obvious team selections, playing the obvious tactics and making the obvious substitutions. It will make a refreshing change after years of mystification. ;D

"We surveyed 97 people off RAWK and 3 people off SCM. We asked, what is Roy Hodgson? They said a dithering, useless, 'Yes Man', nodding stooge. Is that the correct answer?"

 

[Woland]

While we're having a Hodgson love-in, check this link and fast forward to 9 mins.

What a nice fella.

 

[Y1]

So why cant other managers like Fergie, state the obvious like they dont have anymore money?

Indeed. Presumably it follows that he's said what he has with Broughton's and Purslow's support, which is interesting in itself.

Interesting is an understatement. The curious thing is G&H is sidelined.

 

[RolandG]

Broughton pretty much said that about when he spoke about the clubs sale process.

 

[Y1]

But we never believe in any spin from our club before have we?
