Roy Hodgson

[Roboklopp]

Called that very quick didn't he? Maybe not everyone was blind to why Bodge failed abjectly here.

[Yozza]

Was just browsing through some of the stuff on lfc.tv...

watched Cole's recent Sparta interview & it had a link to his goal against Bolton... so I clicked on the link...

after he scored the camera shot to the touchline & it showed The Hodge celebrating - it looks so ****ing wrong.

Brought it all back....
the inital shock at his appointment
the 'give him a chance before we see what he can do' period (admittedly about 2 seconds knowing his achievements in the game)
then the despair
then the rage
then the hatred
then the apathy
then the huge relief when the cunt was sacked

like a bad dream now eh? Thank **** thats over

[cannotmakeit]

I've said it before & I'll say it again - Bodgson will get West Brom relegated!

I have money on that

[wavydavy]

West Brom slipped into the relegation zone today and it's difficult seeing them surviving when you look at their remaining fixtures. Away at Stoke, Birmingham, Sunderland, Spurs, Wolves and Newcastle. Home to Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Villa and Everton. I'll be amazed if they win another game this season. They're ****ed away for a start and will be lucky to scrape 2 or 3 points at home. They could well finish bottom of the pile. Sacking Di Matteo for Fathead was ****ing madness.

It's a shame really as the Baggies are a decent club, but I'm desperate to see them go down now he's in charge. He'll never shut up about it if he keeps them up.

[Shaggy]

Anyone watching Hodgson lose at Stoke again tonight?

I can't resist.

[wavydavy]

I do feel ashamed of my behaviour regarding Hodgson but I would really laugh my ****ing tits off if he lost the next ten on the spin and WBA were left miles adrift at the foot of the table. His rep or what was left of it would be in tatters and maybe then Barclay and the rest will crawl out of his arse and admit what us LFC fans have known all along.

Might have to but by christ this could be a long 90 minutes of "football"

[Chazza]

Unlikely to be one for the purists, not much craft in these line ups

1940: The teams, the teams!
Stoke: Begovic, Wilson, Huth, Shawcross, Pugh, Pennant, Whitehead, Delap, Walters, Jones, Carew. Subs: Sorensen, Higginbotham, Collins, Whelan, Fuller, Etherington, Wilkinson.
West Brom: Carson, Reid, Meite, Olsson, Shorey, Brunt, Scharner, Dorrans, Mulumbu, Thomas, Fortune. Subs: Myhill, Tchoyi, Morrison, Vela, Odemwingie, Tamas, Jara.
Referee: Michael Oliver (Northumberland)

[Shaggy]

Hodgson has left out Odemwingie (top scorer, surely?), Morrison and Vela...and gone with the big lump Fortuné up front

you say it like you're shocked

You know the tactics - defend, defend, get ball and hoof

[Shaggy]

Pennant hits the bar with a good free kick.

Every time I've seen him play for them his delivery - from dead balls and otherwise - has been top class.

He just used to float them over aimlessly as I remember it. Hardly ever put pace and whip on the ball.

[Shaggy]

Yep.

Bodge was shouting then like an old boy who has lost his dog out on a walk
