The item then links to a case study of the commercial benefits of Subway becoming Liverpool FC's 'Official Training Food'.

Finally, on 24 January, a thread entitled 'The Title Race' was started, in which the top four's chances of winning the title were discussed. Unlike the other two, this thread was not started on the Liverpool Board, but rather on the 'General Football and Sport' Board. It's a fascinating mix of hatred, respect and mockery of the top four, but the overriding sense is one of total demoralisation and self-loathing. It's really quite enjoyable.

What the absolute bobbins is going on? That Alex Teixeira fella that Liverpool failed to sign is heading out to China now. Isn't he meant to be in the peak of his career?

Let's wait and see if the owners and fans have the patience for it. I have my doubts klopp will still be there in 2 seasons (after this one) time.

When I said they made the correct decision long term, I was meaning more the sacking of Rodgers. I'm not going to write Klopp off just yet, they could get it right in the summer window and with a preseason under his belt, could start to make progress, though I'm starting to have my doubts.

 

[spurs9]

But Klopp is only on a 3 year contract and he's expected to challenge for the title, really in this kind of season where the league is there for the taking I think he would have been expected to do much better.

My correct decision comment was in regards to sacking Rodgers, rather than hiring Klopp. If the Liverpool directors think they will challenge for the title in the next few years, with out a major overhaul with how they run things, they are in for a shock regardless of who the manager is.

Like I said elsewhere Leicester have raised the bar, before I would have agreed with you but now the Liverpool board can just turn around to Klopp and say that they've already heavily spent and the players are good enough and it's up to Klopp to get the best out of them, they can just cite the example of Leicester.

I think a solid coach, a good scouting team, with a vision for how you want to play with a good transfer out, funding a good transfer in policy, can change everything very quickly for a club. Don't think a major overhaul on a higher level is required; just letting a coach and his team do the job is enough.

 

[spursfan77]

Talking to some Liverpool supporting mates of mine last night and they're convinced they need a massive squad overhaul and buy in a few big signings. I suspect a lot of their fans think this way.

I said "have you not being paid attention to this season at all?". It's not about paying massive transfer fees, it's about buying the right players.

I left the conversation saying that klopp will get sacked before they get top 4 again. There was silence, which makes me think that they believed that too.

They could spend another >£100M again this summer and they'll still be playing 3 or 4 of their god awful defence.

I read somewhere they have currently have one of the most expensive back fours in world football....hilarious if true.

Work isn't going well, you have to go in at the weekend, your colleagues are under-performing and you've got a meeting with a fat, obnoxious git who gave you right grief the last time you saw him. Oh, and there's going to be a protest too, which will really put a damper on things. Hmm. Time to pull a sicky, I think...

Or, as they put it on RAWK...

"F**k me even the manager's injured!!"

Got this from a post on the BBC..... Made me chuckle

"Since Liverpool last won the league Peter Schmeichel signed for Man Utd, won it 5 times, retired, had a son & he's about to win it with LCFC"

77th minute protest
Liverpool 2-0 Sunderland

After singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone' the Liverpool fans start to sing 'time to go'. The 77th minute comes and the home fans head for the exits in protest at ticket prices, which has seen some priced at £77. There are plenty leaving as well.


GOAL - Liverpool 2-1 Sunderland
Adam Johnson
Simon Mignolet will be glad so many fans have left so that his blushes are somewhat spared in the immediacy. This goal is his fault. He dives to his left to try to save Adam Johnson'sfree-kick but lets it squirm past him and into the bottom corner. Sunderland still have an interest in this game.

GOAL - Liverpool 2-2 Sunderland
Jermain Defoe
Sunderland level! In a half-full Anfield, the Black Cats have snatched what looks likely to be a valuable point. Jermain Defoe (who else) has bagged it. He has barely had a sniff, but such is his quality that when a chance comes his way he takes it. The ball is fed low to him in the box and he has a Mamadou Sakho as a marker but he turns like a flash and hammers in a low shot. You have to wonder; just what impact did the departing home fans have on their side? Since the supporters left they have thrown away a 2-0 lead.

Rumours doing the rounds are that Klopp doesn't actually have appendicitis but that he is refusing to manage Liverpool as he thinks it would be a betrayal of god...

 

[Spurger King]

Gegenlaughing in their general direction.

 

[GutBucket]

Losing EL would probably help them a lot next season but I still want them to suffer every match.
