Liverpool v Havant & Waterlooville- Match Thread

[Nic83]

Watching the match on a espn link. Regardless of how it finishes, this has been an embarasing display. Liverpool are lucky to be level. Serious questions have to be asked of the manager and the palyers, not the owners!

Absolute shocking display.

Got the link mate?

ffs lads its the fa cup,we were all going on about the magic of the fa cup this morning and how great these guys are for getting this far.

well its true,and these things happen in the fa cup,they shouldnt but they do,yes we are playing crap but we`l win.

just put it down to the magic of the fa cup and give havant some credit as well.

Second half is underway.

A week ago I said Rafa was using the upheaval behind the scenes to mask the problems on the pitch and I was shot down in flames. I also said Mascherano wasn't a world class 'complete midfielder' worth £17m as he wasn't good enough going forward. Again I was ridiculed.

I hate being one of those smug *******s who says "I told you so" but... I told you so.

i agree the upheaval has shielded him completely.

i didn't ridicule you on masher but i still think masher is worth the money - then again i'm only getting radio comms here so maybe i'd be tearing my hair out if i was watching his performance today.

Riise, Pennant & Crouch must be sold. They are very poor. Riise was taken to the cleaners by thier players on many occasions.
Pennant's passing is sunday league football at best & Crouch was not even in the game.
If an England Int'l cant score against them lot then he is not worthy of the RED shirt.
Second half will start soon so Im off to watch and hope for the best.

Crouch hasn't had the service

[Neil Young]

I think it's about time we stopped fighting among ourselves, stopped attacking the owners, get behind Rafa and the players and unite against the real enemy.

Avoiding the question?

I wouldn't dignify it by calling it a question Niall.

Go on, savour the moment.

We all love the romance of the cup - on the condition that it doesn't happen to us!

Come on you reds! Show 'em what your made of (but be careful not to stand in it).

8-2 to LFC!!

Pennant cross caught by their keeper.

slowly?? as slowly as an express train maybe.

be honest, if you'd just bought the club and the following happened

a) danger of not making it through to champions league stages (as was the case)
b) danger of not finishing top 4
c) being 2-2 at half time against part timers
d) playing one up front against wigan and against havant

would you start looking around for other managers, cos to be honest i would. i just wouldn't be looking at the likes of klinsmann.

i lost faith with rafa after wigan. it's only the owners being who they are that has made me want him to stay put. if they weren't in control i'd be shaking his hand, thanking him for istanbul and waving him off with good wishes.

this simply can not go on. all excuses ring so very hollow now to me.

Can't disagree with any of that.

Obviously Rafa will be getting my 100% support for the remainder of this season though. And I expect our owners to do the same. We'll see where we are come May.

[El Diego]

Didn't Man U draw against Burton a few years ago in the cup and they are ****, everyone one needs to calm down.

[glynner]

this game is giving me an ulcer.

Shocking defensive perfromances out there today.

Looking at David Moores face in the crowd reminds me of how I feel watching us go behind twice to Havant.

I have no doubt we will win, but some of our players need to have a long look in the mirror

Babel cross bounces around in the box, eventually cleared.
