Just an opinion, we're in real trouble at the moment if he stays and can't see any ideal replacements that will come in to the situation we find ourselves in.

There's a few assumptions there, greg! It's not up to Randy to sort the squad, that's what GH gets paid for, and is obviously not up to it.
Holding our nerve might not be enough here, I think if Houllier stays, we go down.

At this stage of the season it would be absolute madness to sack him

We need to hold our nerve not sack the manager. I would say that Randy/GH needs to have a look at the poison in our squad and dispose of the MON supporting back-stabbers. Dunne should have his contract cancelled now, and hang the money. That should send out a message to any of the rest of them - do nothing and we might as well forget it.

Fuck a duck.

Just when I thought things could not get any worse; the return of The Gnasher.

Deep joy.

Agree with that about the poison Greg but houllier cannot seem to inspire or motivate and today was so bad I cannot see us surviving with him at the helm- the players smell blood and are not playing for him.

I know it does make you laugh. Cowans is more anonymous than the other 2 clowns. He may be a legend but he has as much responsibilty as McAllister and yet he gets away scot free.I'd be happy with
McLaren he got slaughtered for his brolly but did a great job with FC Twente and took over a side on the slide at Wolfsburg. He would organise us as he's very tactically astute. I'd take him over big fat Sam any day.

I've supported him up until now but I think he needs to toddle off or it'll be la zone rouge for us.

The only decent candidate I can think of to replace him who isn't otherwise employed would be Jol though. This entire season has been a big load of shit, right from the start.

No it wouldn't, it would give the whole place a massive lift and some hope & belief

Yes.

MoN is controlling the players and Doug is still running the club.

You should let the O'Neill obsession go Greg.

It can't be good for your blood pressure.

Yes , I want to know why all this clamour for McDonald.

I seem to remember being drubbed 6-0 by Newcastle and then the Villa fans singing "You dont know what you are doing as he single handedly buggered up a guarenteed win against Stoke !

How time clouds the memory eh !

Most the players have been a disgrace under both managements this season, why will it be any different if we sack Houllier now for another?
