Should we get rid of our part time Supporters ?

"And the next caller on the line is Syd from Surbiton in Surrey. So, Syd, you're a true supporter and you're live on Talk****e, what would you like to say?"

"That was [bleep]in' [bleep] mate. I've been supporting Liverpool since I saw them winning things on TV in the 1980s and I think I speak for all true fans when I say that [bleep]in' Dago must go. We haven't won anything for over a year and my United and Chelsea mates down the golf club keep takin' the [bleep] out of me, knoworramean mate? It's just not [bleep]in' good enough..."

Look Rafa has got a get out of jail card from the owners for this season. They've gone on record as saying the league might be beyond us this year and I think that deep down inside we know that this is not a title winning squad yet. Most people on the site have said at some point that we need a decent winger, another centre half, and another top shelf striker.Hopefully he will get supported again for another Torres like buy either in Jan or next season. Crouch should get a decent run in the team or he should leave on his own accord cos he's being wasted at the moment. Hyppia's 34 for gods sake-well past it now-what do we expect. Pennant is not world class, too early to tell with Babel but i reckon he'll come good. Man U and Arse have had the resource advantage over us for years. Could we have ever paid 12 million for a Walcott in the last few seasons? No. The money to pay for Kuyt was loaned to the club by Moores! Fact is you need big $$ to compete now and big $$ need to be spent over a sustained period a la Chelsea, Man U, an Arse. I dont think we are to far away. If results keep going the way they have benn the club should think about intervening and insisting that a numer 2 be found. A strong willed stubborn manager like Benitez needs one otherwise we could start going backwards.

Carlton, that's far too sensible, fella. In future, please stick to constructive criticism like "dat woz shoite" or "I'm ****in' disgusted"...

I do think he does need to get a Number 2 in pronto ... look at what happened with Demento when he tried to steer the wagon on his own last time not so long ago .. I distinctly remember the wheels coming off

Cheers Rushy, I honestly think we are not far away from being the side we all want-(now if we could just learn to pass and move).

Didnt queiroz or whatever his name is leave and then go back? Soneone said on here the other day tha maybe the owners should stick the 2 of them in a room and sort it out. Good idea.

You forgot Marseille forgot to mention that we are still unbeaten in the PL despite our luck.

So what!!

We're playing rubbish!!

We've not beaten anyone apart from derby off the park and the only other decent performance has been against Chelsea.

Why is a ****ing crime to admit that we're playing poorly.

**** it I've had enough of the bollox spouted in this place,back to chat chat where at least they talk some sense!!

[KK07]

This is aimed at no one in particular, but some supporters have permanently got rose tinted specs on. If you think a player was ****, then you should be allowed to say he played ****, without being called a part timer or a glory hunter. The same goes for the manager.

Nobody is above criticism, in the eyes of some the manager and the team can do no wrong. Bollox to that, I know the injuries have hit us hard but I think we could be in major trouble if things don't change soon.

Dust off that old Man U shirt, Jay!

When we were winning league titles and cups for fun in the halcyon days of the 70s and 80s we didn't always play well but we still ground out victories. It's the sign of a great team. Ask Chelsea in 2005/06 or the Mancs this year where they've played badly yet won 1-0 five times.

God help us if there had been internet forums or radio phone-ins back in the early 70s or even in the glory days after we'd lost matches like the FA Cup Finals in '77 and '88 or the league in '89! The same 'supporters' moaning at Rafa would have been demanding Bill, Bob and Kenny's heads!!

[Parm]

it was their cup final last night - beating the team that conquered istanbul on that night and still the most famous team ion the world - hence the atmosphere

but i do agree our supporters are quiet these days - that has been happening for a few years mind

this is partly true, but when I've been on the Kop it's always quite loud, but the Anny Road end seems very quiet.

Watching the game last night one thing was painfully obvious, some our supporters of late have been really really ****. No passion, no commitment and the ultimate sin for on the players no loyalty. Watching them Turkish fans jump up and down and waving there arms about like a mentalist who has just found a new pile of kak, reminded me of how quite Anfield is on most League days. How negative people are online and how utterly depressing this section of the fanbase make it for others to follow our beloved Liverpool FC. When I was a member of that site which will not be mentioned I used to go to there matchday chatroom every Liverpool game, it was kind of a good luck ritual. I lost count the amount of time “fans” would be all over the team when we are 1 – 0 down only to change there tune at 3-1 full time. The number of times I have said We are having this you wait Only for the boys to come good and there dissenters to quietly log off and disappear into night with not the slightest hint of ok credit were credit is due.
These Turkish fans sang till there lungs fell out of there arses for the full 90 minutes, cheering on there lets face it **** football team to a famous victory. Our fans who have seen their team literally win every single trophy in the game bar one in the last ten years, reach two Champions Lg finals in 3 years a UFEA Cup final victory, you would be lucky to get two verses of a song and only after we have scored a goal. Visting fans to Anfield now regularly take the piss out of our Home support which is just too embarrassing for words. Its like someone coming to your gaff and just laughing at your misus’s furniture.
And then you go online and sweet baby Jesus fish cakes the hordes of doom Sayers just lie there in wait, looking for anything to latch onto to have a go at the team. About a month ago I said if Pepe had two bad games people on here would be calling for him to be sold and I guarantee that would happen . Rafa makes a very gutsy call last week taken off the club captain and replacing him with a player who basically won us the game, hes reasons were very sound and initially went over most peoples heads, does he get credit, Does he ****.

No No same old miserable depressing Liverpool fan support, Rafa’s mad, how dare he take Stevie G off. Same people 2 weeks previous were saying Rafa does not have the bollox to drop Gerrard. No doubt Hypia will get the special Anfield faithful treatment now. A legend of player who has been nothing but a rock for Liverpool for years and years .. playing out his career with the club he used to captain and sure getting caught out a couple of times, but will any of amazing amount of medals and trophy’s count for anything will it ****, who cares.

I have been posting online in Liverpool forums for perhaps 5 years now and I have noticed that all the people who speak sense eventually just give up been active contributors because like clockwork every matchday someone find something to negative about usually the majority of contributions. Even when we win by clear margins there will be yeah but the manner of the victory was not good enough. Some of the stuff I have read online has been truly shocking, Jammie Carragher will only ever be a squad player, Pepe is a liability not to mention some of the sick references to Geds illness by his own fans.
I have the upmost respect for our travelling section always put on a performance you could be proud of. There are countless fans online who really know there stuff when it comes to football analysis but overall I have to say its all a bit Wooaa is me at Liverpool FC and I place that firmly at the foot of the fans doorstep. Every year Rafa has delivered a massive prize to this club, his first year wad the biggest prize in club football, his nay sayers said it was a fluke, he nearly did it again 2 years later. Some fans of the biggest football clubs in the world can only dream of a Champions Lg final we’ve had two in 3 years. If we are not good enough in Europe this campaign then so be it. I have faith in Rafa, the fans I am not so sure.

Sad, isn't it. It's my daughter's 13th birthday so I took the day off and I'm sat here posting all sorts of drivel trying to defend the team I love...

Good job she's gone out having her nails done with the wife!

I'm not calling for anybodies head and as far as grinding out results,we're not FFS!!

Grinding out wins is one thing but we've been barely grinding out draws and thats withou the shambolic CL performances!!

I get what you're trying to say,but all I'm saying is we're playing poorly at the moment and hopefully things will improve when Alonso,Agger and Torres get back because right now we're playing like a bunch of amateurs.

Relax fat boy,you've got chocolate all over your face.
