  1. Here's my prediction, If he goes there , they won't go down.
  2. Quit after an hour , the lure of my phone was beginning to drag me away from the seemingly plotless action.
  3. Must have spoke to Gerrard before he sacked Smith to make sure he was up for it and the speed in which it has moved. I wonder how many other managers were interviewed or even asked. Maybe he had spoke to him before the Newcastle job was offered as well, seems likely.
  4. Social media allows these morons into your life.
  5. Jesus, this site's doing my head in. I hope Gerard is the best manager we have ever had and we win every game in style. But his appointment is a big gamble and all the fans I have spoken to are saying the same thing, these are season ticket holders not keyboard warriors. Failure to them and me means pain , real pain, and that's why we are worried about this move , it's a big gamble and to pretend otherwise is niave, stupid or divisive. Anyway UTV and come on Gerrard, show us all the gamble has paid off with a strong performance against Brighton.
  6. Interesting article in the Independent.....
  7. Not the fans I'm speaking to , even Liverpool fans see the risk for him and us.
  8. Cheers for that , maybe i will, can you open your eyes and see what's happened. We lose one of our own after he's performed minor Miracles and had a blip..... We then sign a "sky big 4 fan boy " who's coming to us for some experience before taking over his beloved lpool, if and when they want him. You keep happy clapping and I will sulk in the corner.
  9. Now he's got his "Liverpool friends" here let's see how it goes, have a feeling they will all be leaving together this summer.
  10. Have a feeling his cars gonna get awfully wet over the next few months.
  11. Jesus christ what a mess. Smith for Gerrard , laughable .
  12. We didn't have a year of bad results without reasons , we had a COVID hit squad , then we hit some form beating , Chelsea , Spurs . We then lost JG and brought new players in that were not fit and had some more.poor form. Rangers play one team in that league and have more or less a walk over with the others , they have won one championship. Smith bringing us up from the championship was a miracle compared to Gerrard and the SPL win , which took how many seasons?
  13. Smith's name will be sang against Brighton. If Gerrard comes ( and he would mad to imo) he only stands a chance if he brings his existing back room staff, if he doesn't then we are in deep trouble. .
  14. Why, we can only summise its was his decision to sack Smith and all the villa fans I have spoken to think it was premature. Looking at the options, that we appear to have, its a very strange one. It's such a gamble he has took with our club and the odds of it being successful are low. To me we have lost our club to this decision and, I hope I'm wrong but I see it as the beginning of a dark time for us.
  15. My Mrs don't like bond films so it's one for when I'm on afternoons
  16. Decent copy of No Time to Die is on the high seas
  17. Big Sam until the end of the season, too big a job for Gerrard atm. 2 losses and the fans will turn after the Smith sacking. Big Sam had seen it all and wouldn't care , Gerrard wouldn't.
  18. 20 years ageaybe but I think the days are gone of managers who can rule by fear. Players sit on multi million pound contracts. Man city and Chelsea are different, they can afford to freeze these players out and not worry about the financial impact . Klopp is unique and although he is strong he leads with encouragement. If a manager with next to no experience comes in and starts throwing his weight about he will not last 5 minutes in the modern game. The players will freeze him out, they have the power. If an experienced respected manager comes in then he stands a chance.
  19. David Wagner, done some great things at Huddersfield, lost the plot at Schalke but talks sense and sees where he went wrong.
  20. I can't believe how low we are sinking with these names , I just hope Purslow pulls one put of hat and puts us all out of our misery, quickly .
  21. Him keeping them up is more of a reason.
  22. He lost 5 games after beating man u, away. Half the team caught COVID early this year , we lost our best player in the summer. He deserved more time . Let's see who's the next manager, I expected an almost immediate appointment and it doesn't look like we have anyone in the wings. If it's picked from the list I have seen , with Gerrard favourite , then we are in trouble .
  23. The fans won't give Gerrard 12 months, if we start losing it will get toxic real quick with what's happened to Smith . Purslow is either very brave or very stupid .
