He's probably fuming, he got a "must do far better" from his own bosses in public.
Which was nice.

That's a fair point and I can definitely see that. I was looking at the PR from the perspective of the fans rather than the club which was actually their commentOriginally posted by Arn View Post

The press ****ing loved the Hodgson appointmentOriginally posted by Chrono View PostYeah, I would imagine Carra too but not sure about Hodgson, where is the PR boost there?
I remember this Sky advert all over the TV, billboards and Internet (not sure it's the exact pic but had a tag line like "Sky, keeping you up to date with all the breaking news" and then some pic of Cole and Hodgson at the PC):
Maximum exposure tons of articles about how we were doing the right thing in getting rid of the evil Benitez who had warred with the owners and brought the club to its knees
Hodgson was decried as the "safe pair of hands" to "steady the ship" by the press and the board and it was generally considered an appointment that would go down well with investors
Sounds like good PR to meBob Paisley - "This club has been my life. I'd go out and sweep the street and be proud to do it for Liverpool if they asked me to."Comment

Selling Melwood would appear a smart move, as would surely raise significant funds.... assuming it is not already mortgaged to the hilt!Originally posted by Lecter View PostComment

Need to keep the pressure up now, if he's constantly asked about us fans opinion of him, he may just bite and say something derogatory about us, hopefully leaving him in an untennable position.Originally posted by Arn View Post

I still think by the way that we are waiting until Rafa is available and will get him in as soon as he is sacked and that could happen very soon.
I think the FA want Fat Sam as the next manager for the national team and they can get him now without the need to pay compensation.
Capello to Inter and Fat Sam replaces him. The FA would earn a few millions in compensation.
Our owners would clearly kept him so he is clearly an option.Stop the cyberhate
from now on I will skip talking about our finances. That is a promise and will save myself from looking like a

That whole episode would cost Inter a fortune. Pay to sack rafa and pay off the FA, so they can take Capello to the San Siro.Originally posted by Arn View Post

He says all that as if the team's performance and level of achievement, is completely independent of himRoy Hodgson admits Liverpool's owners were right to suggest results have been unacceptable so far this season but insists they remain united in their desire to achieve long-term success.
The boss was responding to comments made by NESV Principal Owner John Henry and Chairman Thomas Werner during a phone-in conducted by LFC TV on Monday night.
He told his pre-Utrecht press conference: "The only team with better results than us over the past five or six games is Arsenal or Manchester United. If you take the last five or six games we are right up there in terms of results.
"They (the owners) used the same terms as I would. If you ask me whether results this season over the 17 games we have played are acceptable and is that what you expected when you came to Liverpool Football Club, then I'd say 'no it's unacceptable and I expected much better.'
"I don't think the results over 17 games have been that good. We've been saved a bit by our European matches. We've done very well there. I've been satisfied with that because we've not always used our so-called best team.
"I'm expecting the next few games to go better. I'm expecting to see the team climb the table. I've seen what the owners said and they spoke very well - Considering it was a phone-in, they did very well.
He added: "I don't have any fears or concerns. The owners have made it very clear. They said that they are in it for the long-term and want to be patient. They realise it will take time and that we can't turn things around overnight.
"Everything with the owners has been 100 per cent positive. They've been excellent."

What a cunt he is. Really did not want to start abusing him but I am nearing the end of my tether with this face rubbing squirell."Its not about the long ball or the short ball, its about the right ball." Bob PaisleyComment

Originally posted by Craig_H View Post I agree it would have been fine but I still don't have a problem with what was actually said. I can see it's bit less neutral than what we'd both see as ideal but neither is it a commitment to Hodgson.
We know their mantra is under-promise and over-deliver and I can live with that..
Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

The alarm bells started to ring when Werner said that they believe in Hodgson
