I was just having a dig with regard to the racist bit. I don't actually have an issue with this PR exercise. Some of you are taking an unnecessarily high moral ground over this.
Brentan Rodgers

While others appear to be wallowing in the low ground.
He bought three players and shockingly enough, Southampton sold those three players to them. I know, it's crazy, right? One buys and one sells. It's a fascinating concept.
Ground zero? So insensitive.
I think the staged photo with the shirts is a bit much but this is how grief/commemorative stuff is done these days, innit. Seems compulsory to 'large it up' as much as possible when it's being conducted in the public domain.
It's the malicious conflation of the two tragedies that I find distasteful.
And it's Liverpool's erasing of the Heysel tragedy that almost every other fanbase in the world finds distasteful.
Do they? Source.
Lets leave the tragedy stuff out. Hardly on topic and we're supposed to be wumming the Liverpool fans about Brenton Rodgers.
I don't personally like the commercialisation of disasters, any company logo is best left out, the wreath and YAWN is fine. To be honest I'm uncomfortable with using these kind of things as photo ops, but that's just me, I believe you can go and learn about important events without making a song and dance over it. It is however, a football club on tour...
This is a minor offence of tackiness, that's about all.

Indeed. Pretty poor stuff.
Back to Rodgers, why does he celebrate goals like a knob with his hands static up in the air?
Shocking isn't it ? Certainly needs to work on that in training.
Liverpool - even their taste in music is shite !
I'm not trying to stir or have a dig, the following is a genuine question, what is the general view amongst pool supporters of then chairman john smiths attempts to shift the blame to Chelsea fans?
Why don't you set up a thread that actually relates to the topic & you might find out.
It was a red herring. Shouldn't have blamed the National Front. However, Hysel came at a time where charging fans and violence were common place with the NF at the centre of much of it.
Because any time we try that certain posters end up getting carried away and it gets out of hand
Cheers
Blah.
So is doing a photo op at the remembrance of 9/11.
Are you saying you're a victim of something again?
I'd say there is sufficient recognition of Heysel from the club. And it's not like we don't play United twice a year, where thousands kindly help us to remember that day in such a heartfelt, genuine fashion.
All the more reason to own what you did. Take the power back from the opposition fans.
The shirts kind of show the whole thing is a massive PR exercise. They could of gone and paid their respects in private or without scarfs and shirts. They're trying to raise their profile with it all, I'd imagine if there was a wreath at the memorial with "Coca Cola" or "Apple" on it people would be outraged.
Can't stand Rodgers myself, he's just got such a high opinion of himself, he's just intolerable at times. I found him painful to listen to last season when they were in the title race.

David Brent is back.
"A good idea, is a good idea, forever."
He does come out with some total guff.
Still, brilliant manager. Think he's set for bigger clubs than Liverpool.
Comes in handy when you're trapped down a well.
Dear god.
Be a long time before we see Sheffield Wednesday fighting for honours so we can cross them off the list .
If only we had a good upward communicator. Might get the best from Fellaini.
I could listen to him all day. Steve Coogan would be immensely proud of creating a character like that. Although people would probably find it a little too far fetched and ridiculous to actually find it funny.
'Thinkers of the game' in one fell swoop he proves he ain't exactly a thinker.
He would make a great Health and Safety officer in an office environment. Cycling in to work with his Johnson bulging out of his tighty whities... eating muesli and yoghurt everyday and sending 45 emails a day that everybody has automatically set to go to their recycle bin.
It's good how Rodgers compares himself to LvG... I mean a mere mortal like Louis couldn't outdo the tactical master class that is Brendan.
He's dyed his hair blond over the summer, definitely something has been done.
Has LvG done more than Rafa?
