RAWK Goes Into Meltdown (2011/2012)

How hard is it to not talk about the suggestion, from multiple sources, that the manager - a legend - of your football club may have walked or been sacked. We'll, considering it's utterly massive for the club, I'd say pretty hard. The desire to quash any talk - as if members equate to official 'staff' positions - is pretty bizarre.

Very easy for you for the next seven days at least. Next?

Haha, someone I follow has just Tweeted...

"If Dalglish gets the sack, does that count as Downing's first assist?"...
 
"Out of Dalglish's 18 months in charge, there are only 6 of those months that you can call 'bad'."

But weren't four of the good months during the last close season?

What about Arsenal? Spurs? Chelsea? Newcastle? Everton?

They all finished above Liverpool this season. So apart from us, they've to get past those five teams before they can get anywhere near City

The delusion just keeps on coming.

There is only one realistic chance for them to ever win the title.

They have to pray some oil sheik or some big money launderer takes them over.


The scousers wont mind either I know.

pathethic lot.

Andy @ Allerton doesn't seem to know which was is up anymore.

During his vigorous defence of Kenny he cites that true fans back their manager, apparently it's what their fans are known for you see (he's also very quick to point out that he's a season ticket holder and likes to say 'match going fans' almost every other post - we get it you fecktard, you're a big bad proppa supporter).

But as soon as someone mentions the hypocrisy concerning the treatment of Hodgeson he gets on the other foot - Hodgeson was only brought in by the 'asset strippers' as a 'yes man' that they could hide behind. Next post Hodgeson came for the money and to put himself in the England Job shop window.

:lol:

And how the feck was he going to put himself in the shop window by being a simple 'yes man.'
 
In a few more of his posts he claims they never really added to their squad last window - it was all adding to the first team. This, of course, is in defence of the King and his accusers who think their squad is threadbare, even though he spent (wasted) big money.

Next page he's on about how they've 'progressed' by adding to the squad.

120 million on shite + 1 place lower than last (8th) = Progress.
 
Has anyone considered the unlikely scenario that Liverpool and Chelsea are both looking at Rafa as replacement managers, both put in contract offers, and Benitez chooses Chelsea instead?

Or better yet, Liverpool don't give him a contract offer?

If Chelsea knock Spurs out of the CL, they won't be needing a new manager.
 
Glen Johnson believes Liverpool were just inches away from qualifying for the Champions League.
The Reds finished in eighth place in the Premier League table - 17 points behind fourth-placed Tottenham - but Johnson insists they would have been much closer if they had the rub of the green.
'I don't remember any team in the history of football hitting the woodwork as often as we have this season. But they are the fine lines people talk about.


'What width is a post? Probably three or four inches. If the ball goes two inches more in one direction it's probably hitting the woodwork and going in.
'With all of the shots that hit the woodwork we could have had 15 more points this season. That would have put us right up there towards the top four. But that's football and we can't change it now.'
Right-back Johnson also drew attention to Liverpool's failure from the penalty spot.
They missed seven of 11 and Johnson, who scored in the Carling Cup final shoot-out at Wembley, told this week's LFC Magazine: 'When we played Blackburn away a few weeks ago I was on the penalties. I'd be happy to take them.

'In the Chelsea game at Anfield I was joking with the lads and telling them that I was taking one if we got it.
'I don't know why we've missed so many this season. Normally, if someone misses a new person has a go and then they go on a run of scoring.
'But it seems that whenever we've got a new taker he's then missed. Then someone else has a go. Penalties are a part of the game where anything can happen.
'Even the best players in the world miss them. It's not easy to explain.'

:lol::lol::lol:

The delusion never ends.
 
It's a nice mindset the manager imposes on his players. It's like an overcuddling parent. "It's not your fault. You did well. It's the other ones like the referees and the posts and the other teams that are at fault".
 
'What width is a post? Probably three or four inches. If the ball goes two inches more in one direction it's probably hitting the woodwork and going in.
'With all of the shots that hit the woodwork we could have had 15 more points this season. That would have put us right up there towards the top four. But that's football and we can't change it now.'


Or an alternative view is that they could have gone two inches wide... and other goals that barely squeezed in could have hit the post or missed and thus dropping more points.

exactly...

thick scousers.
 
They do it every year. It's the same old story's from the kopites, "if we didn't draw that game, or this game." If we hadn't had hit the post so much". *Yawn* Bull fecking shit. You are wank, face up to it!
 
A shot hitting the post is still a shot off target. It is just less off target than other shots off target.

And they had the audacity to absolutely pull apart the 'decisions that cost United the title' article. I couldn't believe the irony.
 
They are very much an irrellevence now - still rivals in the sense that they're local and once were sucessful - but in terms of challenging for the top prizes, we won't be seeing them up their again for a very long time.

They've regressed into a team that consider winning the LC as something special, akin to Middlesbrough/Leicester/Birmingham whereas the big teams use that competition to blood in younger players/fringe players and winning it is a nice little bonus.
 
A putt that is an inch short doesn't go in the hole, a field goal that hits the bar is no good, a basketball that hits the rim is worth no points, a puck cleared off the line isn't a goal, a ball off the wall isn't a home run.

And the less said about how close I came shooting that apple off my assistant's head the better.
 
Just went on RAWK for a bit.

This is a gem:

this is the team that will get us 4th minimum.

Pepe

glen danny martin jose


Lucas
Shelvey Gerrard

Aquilani

Suarez

As is this:



It's just dawned on me how damaging the defeat at Swansea could be. It would have been good to end the season on a high by thumping Chelsea. Kenny's job probably would have been pretty safe and we could have gone into the summer with more positivity. I sincerely hope that loss at Swansea does not cause a nasty hangover that results in the King losing his job.
 
RAWK reacts to Dalglish being sacked:

official we have become like the rest.. didn't think it could get any darker than the days of those two dickheads..

I hope we don't bother with a RAWK thread next year. It's not going to be the same without him.
