A diamond with Thursday tucked in just behind Friday seems to be the best option on a busy week like this.
Probably about right that given where we where when Shanks took over..
You can see when we where dominant... Paisley and Dalglish right up there..
Rafa too even with that bad season under his belt...
Evans/ Houllier.. what a disaster of an idea that was... yet the same chairmen decided to sell the club to a joint ownership...
David Moores thoroughly nice bloke.. but don't give him a football club to run...

Yeah, but Rodgers didn't inherit a team in the second division.
Ran into him once in that Italian restaurant that all the players used to frequent in Southport. My old man went over and introduced himself, then proceeded to berate the man for a good 10 minutes. Tore strips off him, then Moores apologised for the state of the team (this was near the end of Souness's stint) and bought my old man a drink.
Ha ha... for one, you cannot fault moores with.. he certainly wore his heart on his sleeve..
As a chairman though, together with Parry.. he was not the best.. with the money that flooded into the premier league, you just felt he was out of his depth...
Sean: so he should have, considering he not only appointed Souness to begin with but persuaded him to stay when Souness offered his resignation the first time (prompting at least one resignation from a board member instead in protest) about a year before Souness finally did go.
Moores was in over his head from day one. The change in character which overtook top level football merely underlined the fact.
I will back the Liverpool Football Club.. Not an individual..
It was 55% given you're typically exaggerating anyway to prove another anti Rodgers point. Just like your point about him having a poor wins record, when actually in comparison to quite a few other successful Liverpool managers, it's high. Like I said, Rafa was here for twice the length of time too.
So of course, as per the rest of your moronic arguments since last year, you'll continue to blame everything that goes wrong on Rodgers while finding an external reason for everything that goes well. No agenda though.
It's probably a good job Klopp hasn't come in, because he'd have to put up with fucking idiots telling us by the end of September that "he'll be gone by Christmas".
I will back the club, give me a fucking break.
Won trophies, got us two to European finals, finished 2nd.. Shit hot in Europe.. And knew how to get his team to defend..
No comparison I'm afraid...
But mounted one title challenge in 6 years which still wasn't closer than Rodgers came. I'll fully agree Rodgers needs to win something, but you're veering away from your original point, which was dumbing down on his win record without researching the facts first.
"No comparison I'm afraid". Do fuck off.
My original point was in respect of goals conceded..
How's Rodgers record in Europe mark.. ?
How well does he set up his defence.. ?
How good is Rodgers at grinding out results ?
How many times has Rodgers failed to qualify for Europe's top competition?
Rafa 1 in 6 Seasons..
Rodgers Twice in 3 Seasons
How many times was Rafa subject to humiliating defeats ?
I'm no Rafa fan.. But to say his Rodgers record is comparable to Rafas in his prime is a little funny
How many times did Rafa's team score as many goals and wipe the floor with most of the top teams?
In terms of win percentages in half the time, his record is slightly lower, not Worlds apart as you're suggesting. I wasn't comparing the respective cup records, I said right there and I've reiterated enough times, RODGERS NEEDS TO WIN SOMETHING. Try acknowledging the whole point.
Maybe then you'll stop contradicting yourself and sounding like a moron. "A little funny", that's a bit rich given the fucking hyperbole the forum puts up with from you daily.
Sorry Mark but for the first three years of Rafa's reign, he was on a different planet to any other recent Liverpool manager. Two CL finals and winning one, two domestic cup finals and winning one and a then record haul of points in the Premier League. Rafa did all this with hardly any money spent. £10m was the most on Alonso and Kuyt.
I'm not disputing any of that, as I said.
Redninja was labeling Rodgers' win record as "poor'. I was using Rafa's marginally better percentage as a comparison - there's not a huge difference. Rodgers, and I really can't be arsed repeating this for the third time in the space of a page, needs to start winning things, no question. But calling his win percentage poor is wrong.
Okay, I haven't read the entire thread, just posted that on the way home after a few.
Do you think Rodgers gets the club? I know Rafa and Ged did but after last season, I'm not so sure that Rodgers does.
