We're in the relegation zone

I dont know where people are getting the idea that roy might not have much longer in the job - i'd love it if he walked or got sacked, but i fear we're living in dream land there.

My point exactly (relating to Ramos) - he was there for MONTHS

Jeez

Every day is like an eternity.

This time tomorrow we will be in the top half of the league and this thread will look mighty stupid.

wishful thinking.

Let's hope you're right. My worry is that Blackpool will play like a plucky lower league team in a cup tie, which will scare a liverpool team who are petrified already. This season is SO depressing. I think that Liverpool steau game was the only time I've enjoyed liverpool's play for months.

I don't even think we played well in the Steau game.

I know we're playing tomorow. But this is seriously depressing.

Even more depressing when you consider that if we go bust if Tom Cock cant arrange his bailout, we could be into negative points.

Agreed, he'll get the whole season unless he somehow manages to drag us into a relegation scrap. I think we'll finish around 10th when all is said and done... That was my prediction on the day he was hired and I have seen nothing to convince me otherwise.

The worst thing is, even if Roy starts to get results, we're going back to the horrific football of the Houllier era. We've outgrown it as a club, our squad doesn't suit it and there is no chance that Roy will change his outdated philosophy.

Even if by some freak sequence of events, Roy gets us back into the top 4, if we get new owners with money, we will need a new manager to make us play football suitable for winning titles. No team will win the Premier League playing football of this style, standing off and allowing the opposition possession in front of them.

A stop-gap appointment at best, at worst, one that could see us regress to the standard we were serving up under Ged, only in a far, far more competitive Premiership and see us lose the strong spine of footballing players we still posess.

Not at all, as pointed out earlier in this thread this only the third time since Shankly took us back to the top. It should be unacceptable to every Liverpool fan that we find ourselves in this position even if it is just for a day. If we fail to win tomorrow, Hodgson should fall on his sword and allow us time over the international break to get a new man in. Unfortunately, that will not be the case and the Toffees will be licking their lips, at an easy three points.

Regardless of our league position tomorrow night, we'll have still played utterly ****e and clueless football for nearly all our games this season.

So the thread wont actually look stupid.

A win tomorrow and we'll be 10th, that's more like it!

And if we dont win we'll be facing a relegation 6 pointer with Everton

Just aswell form goes out the window in those games since ours is ****

Awesome!!!

This is just like being 3-0 down to AC Milan, at half time in the Champions League, and forced to play the second half with Djimi Traore.

I live for these moments...

[BigChief]

Miserable barstewards. Like Shaggy and V said, not only could we be top half (10th) by tomorrow, we could also be only 4 points behind manure. And they're apparently league title chasers and we've already faced 3 'bigger' teams than us (City - yes them, Arsenal and manure).

That should make manure fans more suicidal than us.

[Shaggy]

United have played 4 away games and won none of them (4 draws). I say it every year but they are ****e. The fact we could be just two points off Spurs in 5th (if we win tomorrow) just shows how **** the league is. It's as poor as I remember it for a long time, us included.
