"fool me once Shame on you, fool me twice shame on me , fool me again - I must be a footy fan?"
Samain,,the Celtic New Year , starts with November 1, and .....
I
have been using the Internet for a couple of decades, in the early times
there was a feeling of "revolution" and intelligence to be respectfully
exchanging ideas with ("ordinary") people on the other side of the planet.
we now have "facebook" and "twitter" youtube and web-cam, almost every
and any type of global communicatiom can be achieved, but over the last
decade the capitalist disease of infecting everything with commercial/consumerism
and the "knee-jerk" reaction of the "fast food" generation who are SKY(tv)-washed..the
"fickle fast food fan " (fx4)... is mutated result of media propaganda...
..."sold"
(yet without SOUL) into forming an opinion that suits....the "suits...
YOU
DONT have to be a football supporter or "fan" to see this affecting the
biggest cultural influence on the worlds population.."show me the money"
the line from the film ("Jerry Macquire") which in fact had a decent message
within it, has turned my passion into anger ..anger at those who "sold"
it and anger at those who BETRAY it , and disgust that those "fans" , supporters
and people within our club(s) that OUGHT to know better have made no more
than a gesture to stop it, if at all
I am busy doing f-all
mailing the whole day through
getting lots of spam
you ought not to do (on
facebook)
busy going nowhere
just like you, "woy"
this is my club, hodgson,
not your f***ing
"toy"
busy reading bullsh*te
all the boring day long
trying to tell the media
that they are SO
wrong
busy kicking hicks out
martin & chistian go
(please!)
& the "pawn" hodgson
as all true
REDS know
I
am busy telling yankees
who
think they are "in"

day WILL "win"

;
The "Yanks" and I will collectively refer to them as "NESV" (New England Sports Ventures ..or is it VULTURES?) have done a great "PR JOB" on Lfc, courting Blog writers , "The "Supporters Union" ; (I am member 970, but am very critial of their delay in co-operation and formation of a potential take-over/staekholder fund with "SharLfc") "Help Save Lfc" ; the local OFFICIAL supporters club & "Lfc blogger" Paul Tomkins (who I tend to agree with but perhaps has recently got carried away with his own publciity and being invited to lunch with "JW" and the "afinity" with facts & figures has been "blinded by the light"?)Venturers or VULTURES?
All
these guys mostly with good INTENT for Lfc , are cuddling up with Henry
etc, "JW" has come out in favour of hodgson!!!
what
a crock of sh*te thats is .and ..this article only tells the half of it..

There
was a man who turned Lfc from an "average" club (albeit with a fantastic
support) into a GLOBAL entity...
even some people at the club and in the city failed to realise the man's greatness until he was gone - thats a curse of the people there sometimes, taking things for granted and SOME not respecting that unique "something" and the ability to make dreams reality until too late.
Hodgson is just the opposite of Shanks, in every way possible..
Too
many fans , are fixated on money.."buy buy buy" "this player, that player"
& the capitalist controlled world is all they have been sky(tv)-fed
on.,..if our unique identity if eroded than I would rather stop watching
Lfc than it become another citeh, chelski or r. madrid! ..young fans are
too fickle, fed on fast-food success..financial reality will change this
in time ..but maybe too late to learn what is valuable in life..
I d like to see SoS-SL going transparent with a campaign to fund a stadium ..named SHANKLY , then they truly would be the "spirit of Shankly"
VERSUS ?
..I have said all along that we must not simply welcome "new Yanks" just because of the disasterous texan version..a properly promoted GLOBAL REDS campaign (supposing that SoS-SL really HAVE been working on setting up the supporters fund? with 50,000 members? and not "just" the protest campaigns) to fund our new stadium or removation of the existing one seems to AT LEAST fit the status WE deserve , if Henry is "true" ....and thats becoming a larger , and LARGER question against NESV!
I wrote to "JW"., ."Lfc is a GREAT GLOBAL investment IF managed properly , and you know it.,,.lets see words matched by actions before we take you to heart! ( and IF your intentions are truly honourable then I shudder to think of the advices you are getting right now!" ...) and on a lighter note...with purslow , broughton & hodgson around the club its no surpirse to me that "Damien" (the new sports "strategy" director of Lfc) is now a director, maybe we shall see the media taking "PR" photos with our "new man" in a LFC shirt ...number 666? ;)
The media love it, inventing anti-Lfc headlines that ironically only feature spanish departures (xenophobic media?) Torres & Reina are more loyal to us than hodgson..And Kenny is superior too...(but NESV only seem to want "yes men" )
the english media 's biased lobby of hodgson is exposed by supporters, and their attempt to blame Rafa for the mess that G & H concocted is pathetic (complicated by Broug...hton & Purslow attmpts at footy management) ..glad that perhaps at least some echo journalism roughly relates to the truth..I keep hoping to wake up from the nightmare of the footy of hodgson @ Lfc and his undignified interviews & TV comments that only distance hodgson from normally loyal core of Lfc supporters
???? I suppose that Henry has noticed that the Purslow/hodgson transfer dealings offloaded younger players in favour of players perhaps past their best , "sell by" date Cole 29 next week, (reminds me a biit of a "Kewel" saga) Konch (30 next b,day) , Poulsen, 31 next b,day..and a "relatively young Meireles , 28 next b,day...but better than Aquilani? (26) ..(we'll probably never know as Juve will probably keep him)
I am still cautious about the "new yanks" ..as it seems the same broker introduced NESV as introduced G & H.? and the disasterous duo 's departure tended to mean some fans would have welcomed almost anyone ...(except perversely SoS/SL???)
Rafa had a long term strategy for sustainable success @ Lfc but Gillet & Hicks ; broughton, purslow & hodgson have put us back 5 years at least!..
"New Liverpool FC owner John W Henry jets in for talks with Roy Hodgson - (Liverpool FC News- Liverpool Daily Post)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2010/nov/02/liverpool-john-w-henry-nesv
----
anyone had a look to see
if there are 3 numbers of a birthmark on Jw's head...?
as purslow is still around, and NESV with little expeience in footy, have not yet replaced broughton, its unlikely they will ditch hodgson, unless theres a massive supporter campaign of the type that attracted media when we wanted G & H out..(unlikely as Henry has done a great "PR" job so far) .the whole spin of the LFC office tends to hide the opinion of most core supporters that a) hodgson replaced someone who is ,by far, superior, b) that hodgson was a pawn in the broughton/purslow power game or c) that the only honest man i the picture is Kenny Dalglish and whether he is perceived by some to be dynamic enough , he is surely is for me the only one strong enough to cope with the dubious game of politics going on at Lfc..when or if these basic problems are solved , we can clearly see a picture of where and how the team progrsses, I cant enjoy the footy whilst these vital issues cast a shadow over our club, but I doubt Henry will be able to resolve them as quick as I / we would like. As I am sure the majority of supporters woudl prefer to be discussing the merits of players & team formations etc rather than these "bad taste" issues..?
I cant see any logic on anyone favouring broughton , purslow or hodgson..as NONE of them were appointed by what i would consider a "proper Lfc" ??? (and none of them did what they were , alledgedly, employed to do..) even though they were painted as heroes after the disasterous duo..the english media 's biased lobby of purslow & hodgson is continually exposed by supporters, and their attempt to blame Rafa for the mess that G & H concocted is pathetic (complicated by Broughton & Purslow attempted footy management) ..glad that perhaps at least some journalism roughly relates to the truth..I keep hoping to wake up from the nightmare of the footy of hodgson @ Lfc and his undignified interviews & TV comments that only distance hodgson from normally loyal core of Lfc supporters....
Rafa had a long term strategy for sustainable success @ Lfc , including building the academy, involvement of Kenny and the strengthening of global scouting., G & H ; broughton, purslow & hodgson have put us back 5 years at least!. Nothing hodgson has done on or off field has shown him to be worthy of being anythting to do with Lfc, he has insulted us, & he was appointed by the club when Hicks and bankers owned it who appointed broughton a chelski fan broughton as chairman , who forced out our manager whilst under contract, & sold the club late to another group of (nice?) yanks via the same broker who introduced G & H, and he & purslow forced out Rafa in a cowardly backstabbing move and ignored our call for Kenny and request from supporters to have a say, in fact purslow invited hodgson whilst rafa was still under contract at the club
I
would say to Henry, JW., .Lfc is a GREAT GLOBAL investment IF managed properly
, and you know it.,,.some great "PR" going on, but let's see all these
words matched by actions before we take you to heart! , thanks to the mistakes
of the past "trust" will have to be earned, ( ...and IF your intentions
are truly honourable , I shudder to think of the advices you are getting
right now, and from whom!)
The Media loves Lfc drama and the "Vultures" fly in...
@anfieldonline/this is anfield
I feel the Premiere league this season is overall competitive but the standard poorer, which makes our position all the more depressing..as the english media were promoting the anti rafa mob last season, its if their darling hodgson and his "judge me after 10 games" quote backfires on him (so dont moan at the fans if they jump on the "anti-woy" bandwagon now, because this time the criticism is more than justified)..
I hope Henry has plans that please core Lfc supporters, because hodgson "map" makes hima legend,,,in his own lunchtime....he WANTED to be "judged" after 10 league games, - the judgement is "guilty" it's sad that some are conned by the media into celebrating our jump to 12th place...and that the "new Yanks" are not experienced in managing footy to see through his BS! (or the pathetic english media lobby behind him)
as
a life long RED it's hard to take , since the 60's , when weaned on Shanks
mentality and supporting each REDS team ..encouraging any player that wears
the LiverBird on their chest ..and whoever managed that team, until now,
I cant enjoy it..my heart wanted a win, and as always although I want my
team to play beautiful footy i'd take a scambled win..a steal like sunday
"There
are places I remember
All
my life though some have changed
Some
forever not for better
Some
have gone and some remain
All
these places have their moments
With
lovers and friends I still can recall
Some
are dead and some are living
In
my life I've loved them all"
and
we (core Global REDS supporters) love...
Rafa ..a quality Man & Manager (win or lose)
Rafa
had a long term strategy for sustainable success, including building the
academy, involvement of Kenny and the strengthening of global scouting.,
he was forced out in a COWARDLY boardroom coup organised by the Hicks/bankers
employed broughton & purslow replaced by "media luvvy" and southerner
-
the english media 's biased lobby of hodgson is exposed by supporters,
and their attempt to blame Rafa for the mess that G & H concocted is
pathetic (complicated by Broughton & Purslow attmpts at footy management)
..I keep hoping to wake up from the nightmare of the footy of hodgson @
Lfc and his undignified interviews & TV comments that only distance
hodgson from normally loyal core of Lfc supporters...but so far apart
from "removal" of the debt (which CAN be reversed by NESV at anny time)
I dont see them doing ANYTHING other that "nice chats) & SOFT appointment
and statements, that
seem
to no more than diplomatic "spin" and TWIT-ering to win overv the Fx 4
...these Vultures are maybe just that much "cleverer" than the "Texan tommy"
Hicks & co at fooling the footy fan & the ar*e licking "media"?

thanks
RAfa,,for ..at least 2005 and for making us the best in europe the following
5 years!
Hodgson = Hopeless (on & off the pitch)
Fergies days may be numbered , hopefully with the likes of nani and shrek far from having their heart in their clubs interest. however, .our own problems with Torres are IMO more about the "long ball" scramble of hodgson tactics, the analysis of the passing methods used this season even compared with Rafa's "poor season" last year, we made 250 less passes, in the same game time, ???
Torres can play the lone striker but he needs a "pass & move" team around him that support, we scored the most goals in the PL in 08/09 with Torres alone, because players supported, but hodgsons tactics leave us far too deep to support Torres, its logical that his game/confidence will suffer when hes left to do it alone (one of the reasons he left Atleti?)
I had to haave some FUn because I am on the verge on outright bias against anything from the USA or "injected" like hodgson is......but I cant imagine iin my head being truly "happy" whilst that man is sitting in the managers seat..
TORRES & REINA are more Loyal to LFC Supporters than hodgson..
Stevie should be doping THIS to "woy".....;)
trying to avoid bias is difficult , but my feeling is that hodgson has proven that there is not one thing about him thats good for LFC (that is, the LFC i want to support) ..the "10 games" gone by, and I feel that the "success " of recent wins are more down to the team than to "tactics" ...and I dont see a strategy ..
i cant bring myself ever to want to lose , but rh is not our man, he was appointed by the "corrupt regime" ..and like that nightmare, i want it to be over and him gone, i'd rather have NO coach than someone who disgusts me as he does, and makes me not want to even look or listen to his interviews or post-match "opinions"
..oh...MY man of the match...the 12th;
....THE TRAVELLING KOP, made it sound like our home game,@ BOLTON all the best to all of you who were part of that , you deserve much much more!
Hodgson deals with his "critics" ? ;
could
this be hodgson's first meeting with "SoS" (supporters union)?

AS
VH says ...Rafa was used as a scapegoat yet he was always loyal to us fans
(actually he still is) whereas woy on the other hand actually came out
and slated us for protesting against hicks and gillette. Rafa never once
turned on us FACT. woy needs to g.et out of anfield =we dont need
managers like him who r gonna slabber because we protest about sumthing
we feel strongly about. he's a yes man and its just a job to him
end of. thats why Rafa was ousted - he wasnt a yes man and it wasnt
just a job to him so if there was something going on that he didnt approve
of he spoke his mind and they didnt like that. i dont understand
fans who are still slabbering about Rafa and saying give woy a chance.
get him out t now b4 he does anymore damage

CS>VH
is right
.........ill
take a bet that many of those "fans" who say "giive hodgson a chance" are
either "lobby-merchants" or the same that called for Rafa to go, and DESPERATELY
need hodson to do well or they will (rightly ) look stupid!

CS> ironic, fans wrongly hard on Rafa go soft on hodgson, & rightly hard on Hicks, go "Soft" on Henry & NESV..so Naive!
(scenes from after game v Napoli)
stupidity
reigns again...
I
have lost count of the number of times I have complained about the fact
that certain travel agents & others sell tickets to our games through
corporate or other deals by the club, Lfc ticket office is almost as mcuh
to blame as anyone..
they
offer deals via agents that dont identify if the buyers are true fans -
and so often in recent years true fans havent been able to get to big games
or finals because of it,
if anyone at Lfc had done their homework they would have seen the piotential for trouble as soon as we were drawn with Napoli ..(the troubles related to Italian clubs are not unknown to us are they???) ..sure some lads are going to look for "revenge" ...surely we havent forgoten what led to "heysel" ???..
Lfc "office" needs sorting, but I dont yet believe NESV have the "nouse" ...(broughton, purslow & hodgson are still there!)
CS>hodgson should be kissing Stevies feet by now, because SG saved woys ar*e.- even after all the criticism , he actually played poulsen AND 3 other central midfielders , (NOT pahceco!!) and took off an attacking player (jovanovic) who looked sharp in the first half..if I was a paid saboteur to hurt Lfc I couldnt do it more effectively than hicks purslow & hodgson so far!
i am that despressed by the decline of our club through parry, hicks, broughton, purslow & hodgson that it comes as no surprise that someone called "Damien" is now a director...;)
.Lfc
is a GREAT GLOBAL investment IF managed properly , and you know it.,,.lets
see words matched by actions before we take you to heart! ( and "JW" IF
your intentions are truly honourable then I shudder to think of the advices
you are getting right now!)

Chris...like
you I am a 40+ years supporter...since the time of the Great Man.....and
through the wind & the rain have been there.
I
agree that long term SOS & SL need to keep building, no matter how
things pan out with the new owners, I bel...ieve that the supporters must
buy into the club and am a member of both and intend to continure to recruit
fans to join......in the long term the supporters must have a say.....this
is important for LFC because our supporters are football people and know
their football (that is the pre 2005 'supporters'). YN WA.

ChriS SmiTH>
If said my concerns
before, if perhaps we get involved on the board and could fund say the
stadium re-build..then I would start to believe that the new yanks are
different..but someof our fans are "classic"
one lad with alll
the Lfc stuff on... his wall said "Bale is the best player in the world!"
..after what a few games??..as I wrote , Stevie is still the most complete
footy player in the world and Torres the best striker when fit, and theres
a little chap called "messy2 or something..;)
amazing how much
"hype" in todays game, fast -food fans with instant opinions..and now "white
hart lane" is the best atmosphere..wait till they are losing?..
...true REDS know
how to lift a team..spurs fans will boo their players when things go bad..
11103 Dave R likes this.
Marie B> So true, neither Broughton, Purslow & Hodgson did what was required of them when appointed by H & G - in fact Broughton & Purslow were the guys who were in the pocket of H & G untill at the 11th hour they realized they had to do their prope...r jobs, it took them until H & G decided to fire them to realize that they lying Twats. As for Roy, he was brought in because he's a 'yes' man or 'noddy' as I prefer to call him and, though he was not suitable for the job still took it and we now see the fiasco he has created.!
ChriS SmiTH>.... maybe i am just sick of all the lies and spin Marie, but I worry about the "new yanks"too (whether they are "right" or not) how quick almost everyone has been to welcome them in..I am still convinced that had the supporters uniion/ShareLfc ...co-operated earlier we could have had a "safe" & honesty community owned Lfc by now, (even losing 9 points would be preferable than this feeling of gradual erosion of all that made me love my club; its not just about "winning") but too many fans are "sky-washed" .......i dont feel comfortable with any of it,...my ironici sense of humour is required to stop me walking away after 40+years of support..and when somone called " Damien " gets appointed director of our club, it almost seems like its all gone over to "the dark side" ;)

hatred for what Parry, (DM too?) tHicks; broughton, purslow, the media

MYCLUB (the ELsUN supported Monty -> Global Youth Clob project)
already
a .connection with this ??...
The Reds vice-captain took time out of his busy preparations for Thursday's Napoli clash by dropping in at Barlows Lane Primary School in Fazakerley.
The purpose of his visit was to help launch the club's Tactics 4 Families initiative, which will run over the next five weeks and aims to use the language and principals of football as a mechanism to highlight the importance of strong family bonds.
The message that the best sides are always made up of unique individuals, all of whom possess their own special talents and skills, was conveyed - explaining why a 'team of Carraghers' wouldn't be successful in reality.

The UEFA Financial Fair Play Rules & Liverpool FC
Posted

entities wishing to invest in the football industry, specifically in relation
to the ‘fit and proper person’ test, conflicts of interest, multiple club
ownership and third-party player ownership. He is also a subscriber to
The Tomkins Times.
The aim of this article is to set out briefly the rationale for the new UEFA rules, then go into a little bit of detail about what they say, and then offer some insight into their significance for Liverpool Football Club. The article will try and demonstrate that, in the short term at least, due to the unfortunate timing of the proposed takeover and the lack of any significant funds in the last few transfer windows, Liverpool Football Club has not been able to take advantage of the UEFA rules used to calculate whether a club has broken even. There is no coincidence that Manchester City are spending fortunes this summer, because from the 2011/12 season, as will be described below, the club runs the risk of breaching the UEFA rules by spending over and above what they earn.

with
a million + global fan base IMO its even more important that the SoS-SL
co-operation be used as a balance to the "new yanks" and to encourage distant
fans to join the membership (and bring "rough traders"into the Lfc family,
but this surely needs trust in the new Lfc management and whilst purslow,
broughton & hodgson still represent the old regime that (IMO) needs
to be purged.
I wonder if Purslow saw this before offloading a lot of youth in favour of players at the back end of their career on (perhaps) higher wages?
my
gut reaction is that whilst on the surface this seems to intend "fair play"
..the seemingly biased way UEFA acted so far means that certain clubs may
get even "softer" beddings in to the new situation and rather than justice
& fair (financial) play, this new scheme will just increase UEFA already
full coffers as they "penalise" the rich, who almost certainly will attempt
to "get round it"...

NOTE ; "JW" & "woy"
....Players like TORRES
ARE LIVERPOOL
; you are NOT!!!! so back off "OUR KID"
)
up next LIVE R pool v Chelski..
as
for the Napoli match I heard some pretty banal discussion on Lfc Tv weekend
"a closer look"
(which
is "spinning" faster than a top these days , almost every programme on
it contains pro-NESV or pro-hodgson, or anti-Rafa comment) and I had an
ironic smile when the sunday times lad (the same sunday TIMES, which used
to have a "global rep" thats FALSEly compared hodgsons start to that
of Rafa!) mentioned about avram grant of W.Ham letting youth go and bringing
in players at the end of the career, and thought to myself..hmmm thats
what Purslow/hodgson has done,....
even if this "survival" season works , 4/5 players may only have another season ...surely Kelly & Shelvey will get the chance (and "woy" had dumped Pahceco) and hopefully Agger but it was dangerous to think that Napoli were an "easy touch" Thursday, with Cole Injured it cries out for Pacheco to come in OR to give Jovanavic another game (as he seemd to have a couple of good runs in Naples) ..but I really think Stevie & Nando should be at least on the bench and get 30 minutes , so that perhaps we finish the game with something the line up we ought to play against Chelski...
starting something like ; Pepe; - Kelly , Carra , Agger Fabio - Johnson , Shelvey, Pacheco, - Jovanovic Babel Ngog with Meireles or Lucas ; SG & Torres coming on for the last half hour, I am not sure about Sotos v Chelski - depending if Agger is fit enough , as we need a bit more nouse & creative foot from the back sunday.. Skrtel played well @ Bolton, my CB pairing when fit & on form would be Agger/Carra or Agger/Skrtel, (later news says Agger is still "injured")
in
the seat we have a clown
but
when the rent -boys come to town
lets
stuff them like we ALWAYS should
WE
are LIVERPOOL more than Good
