Would depend how much money I had and could afford to lose.

Small change compared to the alleged ?2 billion Abramovich has spent at Chelsea.

I don't make it personal - you just take everything I say to heart. I can't help it if you are insecure and can't take a bit of banter. Why is it Man U and Man C fans, and Spurs and Arsenal fans can mock each other and no one seems to get as offended as you??

Also, in response to your point on finances... Check the small print. You'll find Celtic are ?30m in the red. It might be in the red to their sugar daddy, but the loans are there. Would you say ?30m in the red is a good financial 'code of conduct'?


Parkdrive - no one is saying you should. I just wondered if you had a specific reason.

Consider this. Liverpool brought back Dalglish in the expectation of turning things around, to boost that ambition they spent huge amounts of money, a luxury they did not extend to Hodgson. Given all of that, had Hodgson done the same, can you imagine the grief and abuse he would have got. God alone knows what the EDFers would have said if the Arsenal had spent as much and we had performed like Liverpool. Yet nobody seems to think Dalglish isn't up to the job, another poor result yesterday. So much for the return of the king, more like the emperors new clothes.

Liverpool record under Roy Hodgson


10 wins out of 20 got him the sack. ?20m spent.


Liverpool record under Dalglish


10 wins out of 27. ?100m spent.

I rest my case.

I think the newish owners will stick with Kenny for the time being. It has been a pretty shit season so far, although FA Cup still a possibility), and I'm forced to admit that most of the new players haven't set the world on fire. I'll happily wait til the end of next season before making my judgement.


I agree, and said at the time, that Woy was very poorly treated, and deserved better from club and fans, but unfortunately for him, he was seen as Hicks and Gillett's man, so he was never going to get a fair run.

I would be interested as to how you arrived at that 80% figure Anna.

Was it from posts during the last week, month, 3 months etc?

If it includes posts made around the Suarez incident, then that would skew any 'statistical analysis'.

Do you perceive Otta's last post as 'slating' Liverpool?

Rangers' future has been secured. But only at the expense of a deal with HMRC over stadium naming rights. Ibrox is to be renamed the Inland Revenue Arena, or IRA for short. But please note this is only Provisional.

I'm just questioning the dogs abuse Hodgson got when you consider the performance under Dalglish is poor and the the money he's spent far exceeds that spent by Hodgson. If that's slating, then guilty as charged.

As this is from a scouser I expected a 'Thanks for giving me something to whine about'. There's just no pleasing you lot with your Beatles and your Brookside ferries

Anyone else think that Mancini was somewhat less than gracious with his recent remarks prior to United games? They would win against Spurs and that WBA was an easy game. I think it's very difficult to make assumptions like this in the EPL and his remarks were insulting to Spurs and Albion. Swansea I suppose was a very difficult game.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By malumbu · Posted

      Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Sue · Posted

      I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      By MCK100 · Posted

      @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
