Yep, a few fans could actually see this coming.

The excuses have worn thin after today, I can't see a way out of it for Roy by staying.

pmsl what sort of stat is that?

Any quotes from Roy after this one?

Can't wait to hear what he has to say.

If he wants to stay in this job he can't come with the crap he did after Utrecht.

He needs to apologise and say it's not good enough from him or the players and that he won't accept it and will change things.

If he says that losing Torres was key to the game I'll put my foot through my TV!

I kind of seen that Liverpool were going further downhill after last season, but at the moment it's eminent that it's a lot worse than anyone else could've possibly expected, it's shocking to be honest. I can't see how getting rid of Hodgson will make much of a difference, it'll just put Liverpool back to square one in my opinion, the team has overcome some amount of change over the summer, new manager, one of their best players left for Spain (same as Alonso last summer, who I'm a big fan of), a great amount of firstteam/squad additions will take a while to gel. It's not all Hodgson's fault, partially maybe.

Although I fail to see where and how they'll turn the tables their way, and their future is unforeseeable at this particular moment in time. They remind me of Leeds all those years ago, a team that shouldn't really be struggling with the quality and depth, dodgy owners, board problems and also a big club with lots of fans and history.

we can play when were 1-0 down, 2-0 down. but no way are we playing at 0-0!
Roy won't stand for that!!!:mad:

i think its exactly what it says on the tin.



we are in the relegation zone, the very last place we want to be, and for a club with such a history the very last place they should be as well.

a serious shake up is needed.

the most pointless stat ever seriously, im sure Liverpool must have lost an openeing game at the start of the season once 'to be in the relegation zone at the end of matchday' SSN for u

Relegation is a serious issue now lads. no creativity at all in your side.

Today was very very embarasing and ye are the laughing stock of the league.

Question is - was Rafa a great coach as he somehow managed to get a decent performance out of that group of players?

There are some serious questions that need to be asked about your players. Are they actually any good? Kuyt and Ngog should not be Liverpool players in my opinion if you compare them to some of the greats ye have had over the years.

Just waiting for the "youa are too good to go down" post.

In fairness the pressure back then was a little different don't you think? Health issues were what made KD quit IIRC.

As a United fan it'd be easy to have a good laugh at Liverpools misfortune, but to be honest it could end up happening to us eventually.

Hopefully the big clubs who built traditions by building their clubs from the ground up won't be driven from the top table of football because they cant compete financially with City and Chelsea.

I still hate Liverpool, but I still hope they don't drop like stone into obscurity.

fair enough it doesn't tell the full story, after match day one or two its a pointless stat, but after match day seven, its a very worrying sign, i still their too good to get relageted, but if it continues after a few more match days, then i'll be starting to get the jitters.

"It's a very bad start to the season. It's a start we could not envisage. It's been a strange season so far but we are very unhappy we have only got six points from seven games."

Thats what roy said according to the BBC after the game

I agree with the part in bold I really cant stand City and Chelsea all their success is hollow and bad for the game

In fairness it's hard to follow on ahead with so much change going on in your club after finishing last season, Rafa left Roy a fallen team that were only going to fizzle out with their best years past them, peaking when you were trying to push us to the title. I agree, another manager could do a bit better with a great manager, but a great manager who promises instant progression is very hard to come across.

Comical result today. They should be embarrised.

Ya stop blaming City for your awful performances. At least they are passing the ball around and trying the play decent football.

Nonsense.

You only wish to continue peddling that bollox because as one those shouting loudest last season for him to go & blaming him for our problems, this season has shown how truly idiotic you were being.

I doubt if Liverpool will go down, they are one of the Sky Sports much loved clubs and some rich sugar daddy will come in and save them

Wasn't a certain "King Kenny" involved in recruiting Hodgson as manager??? Maybe the finger(s) should be pointed at him??

Everyone's over reacting. They just had a bad start. A win against Everton and they'll be flying. Wait and see.

Ah now, a bad start would be 12th place, not 17th.

No, once he decided he had interest in the job he had no part.

Even before then he was only asked for his opinions & then the decision was to be made by Purslow & Broughton.

Not so much defending Rafa, more pointing out that people like you, Rosco & MentalMickey (the hint was in the name) invited this turmoil on the club & were very vocal about it all last season. just pointing out how idiotic you were being, yet yous mocked me over & over again for insisting that what has happened, would happen.

Here is the same stat from the bbc website:

1700: So Liverpool end a top-flight match round in the bottom three for the first time since 19 September 1964 - where on earth do the Reds go from here?

how many times did you call for Rafa to be sacked?

you didn't care who replaced him, you just wanted him gone.

now he is, and we're ****ed. he was the one thing keeping the club together and thats quite obvious now.

some people like yourself are now trying to make out the main reason for the mess is the squad he was left, its ****ing comical, you actually couldnt make it up.

there is genuinely a chance we can be relegated with the likes of mascherano, gerrard, carragher, johnson, kuyt, aquilani, benayoun, torres, reina were left when we sacked our previous La Liga & CL league winning manager. and we added the likes of Cole & Meireles etc etc. its ****ing comical.
