I think he meant the rubbish Roy...
Oh yeah, chuck. So he got about half his signings right. That's already as good a track record as Modo's beloved Benitez.
thanks for the laugh. So we can't agree Tom, because you had the wrong Woy. I was about to applaud your efforts to rehab Wubbish Roy
So as Sean said, this is just self serving bollocks so you can act like a cunt again. Lacking in a real understanding of the club, again. Like I said, it's annoying that you can be such a decent poster, and then go off on one and act like an absolute fucking bellend.
Disappointing, but not really surprising, that you didn't read the article. Where does it say overachieving?
You do know the difference between 'overachieving' and 'beyond expectation'?
Modo use doesn't get Liverpool.
And the person who said we've always had massive weapons supporting us is true. They just never had the massive platform that is the Internet to reach so many.
Thank The Lord for the Internet.
How can someone spend £100 million and say we exceeded expectations by winning the league cup and finishing 8th?
Winning the CL in the first year that's exceeding expectations. How much did Benitez spend, Mark? Was it £100 million?
I've seen replays of the CL final about 50 times, Fa cup final in 2006 like 30 times.
The league cup final in 2012? Never seen a replay of it.
I actually hesitated about posting this article because you think I've got some agenda against Dalglish. But any sane person would admit that what he's saying about "our expectations" is absolute bollocks.

I'd swap that cup for a place in the CL, I'll tell you that.

So you'll watch replays of getting to fourth? What a bizarre argument.
Overachieving, exceeding expectations, it's fucking semantics.
It all depends on what his expectations were. If he expected us to get relegated after spending £100 million, then I guess winning a cup is exceeding expectations.
But I don't believe that's true, Tottenham just spent £100 million. If they finish 8th and win the league cup, do you think Villas Boas will keep his job?

The argument is that it never meant anything and btw if I remember it correctly we made Cardiff look like a top side in that game.
And Downing got MOM for being Downing.
Well at least he got us to the promised land.
No, but what about the rest?
He did, in his first season. He then had 5 years where all he had to show for it was an FA Cup and money wasted. What's your point? His CL doesn't absolve him of responsibility for leaving us up shit creak. Kenny had a season and a half.
They were shite, like Aquilani, Dosenna, Robbie Keane, etc. You get the picture.
Downing had a good final. Not a good player nor did he have a good season for his transfer fee. Stop re-writing history because of your agenda.
A trophy is way more important than anything. We exist to win trophies. Remember that.
Meanwhile, Modo exists for players that can do keepy-ups and taking pop shots at England and Norway. Oh, and being a cunt.
Hahaha...
If this thread and those comments at the top of the first page were actually about what he did for us in the 70's as you say, then I'd comment on that.
But they're not. They're quotes about what was served up during his reign as manager 2 years ago by him, so I'll comment on them.
And stick your superfan bollox up your arse, it's nauseating as fuck and makes you look like a pillock.
I don't think after the spend he can argue it was over achievement but at the same time I do agree, a trophy is a trophy. Not all of his signings were shite either but well... We've all said enough on the 55m thrown away on Downing and Carroll.
I was gutted he got sacked tbh, but not surprised after 8th.
I loved the way he wiped the shit of Hodgson away from us... I really hated Roy and what he epitomised.... and I genuinely did enjoy the way he had us playing for a while, with Kenny in charge it felt like it was our club again.
For me whatever fallout he had with Meirelles was a key moment, so much of our best footy in Kennys first 6 months went through him.
I just wish I could have sat in the meeting where Carroll and Downing's names were first mentioned and gone into a mystic convulsive trance channelling the footballing gods all frothy at the mouth and levitating issuing a warning from the future grave.

Please do explain?
