So, Liverpool fans. Imagine this - season over and next day the big announcement... "Rafa's off".


Regardless of how it happens, what's your honest instant reaction do you think?



And while we're here of course they'll give their all against Chelsea. They need the points to be sure of UEFA next year.

Cap in hand, haha. Why do you think we love him Matt! 19 coming our way this weekend or next, it's all the same to us. :))

ITV Match Report: A dubious penalty on the stroke of half-time lifted the Merseysiders and they went on to dominate for much of the second period.


I listened to London Live's match commentary and although Millwall were not on sparkling form, the consensus was that the Ref gave everything Tranmere's way.


Off to look for some rotting grapes.

Last home game of the season today. A routine 2-1 win over Burnley in one of those games that will not affect anything major ? give or take a couple of positions in the league (not that the result was an accurate reflection of the game). I rarely stay on for laps of appreciation but, this season, given the achievements of the team, I did, as did nearly every Birmingham fan.


I never thought that we would be relegated this season ? unlike many pundits, including a number on EDF ? but we have exceeded my (realistic) expectations by 5 or 6 places. What has struck me more this season in the 40 years of supporting Blues is the attitude of the players throughout the season and the dignity of Alex McLeish. When the strains of ?Keep Right On?* rang out while the players were being rightly applauded, I felt very emotional and proud of my club.


This is what supporting a team is all about.


*the best song of any football club.

It goes back to our FA Cup win in 1956 and Alex Govan, on the team bus back from Highbury, was asked to give the team a song. Which was the original Harry Lauder version. And it stuck from then. It was also at one time adopted by other teams. When BBC2 did their George Best night, they had footage of Benfica v Man Utd semi-final in Lisbon and you can here Man Utd fans singing it.

Rafa is a likeable chap, but when you cut through the facts the football has gradually got worse since Paco (his assistant) left 3 years ago.

    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded
