The French are still pissing themselves laughing at how they got rid of him so painlessly after the South Africa/Domenech fiasco.Sadly I'm leaning towards this. Even sadder is, I long for the O Neill days already. Say what you will about the guy, but he got results. We've gone quickly from a top 6 side not too far shy of being top 4, to being completely average, battling relegation. Granted injuries and O Neill's departure itself have played a huge part, but it's been a scary decline.The most frightening thing is how certain O Neill stalwarts have not stepped up to the plate since his departure. Lack of a genuine gameplan is a huge concern. For all O Neills limitations and only have plan A, at least there was actually plan A. We haven't actually improved much between K Mac and Houllier so far.Benefit of doubt and all that, but it looks worrying.Christ almighty.The most overreacting post of the lot, Tom. Look at the injury list.Reo-Coker, Petrov, Sidwell, Delph - all out.Cuellar, Beye - outHeskey, Agbonlahor, Albrighton - out.Then throw in Carew who was also out, and it is the worst injury list the club has had in god knows how long. Throw on top of that the fact we changed manager at all, which brings uncertainty and means a wait for things to click, then the timing of MON going, and it is hardly surprising we are where we are.

I still maintain that it will all end in tears with Houllier. The French are still pissing themselves laughing at how they got rid of him so painlessly after the South Africa/Domenech fiasco.
.........or maybe remembering the 1st seasons of Jozef Venglos, Graham Turner, Tommys Doc and Cummings etc.
"With some players, it's tense and electric", added the former French international. "Not with the whole group but with some. Yes. Houllier is a new culture, another way of working. When you're in a routine and that it changes everything for you overnight, you have trouble accepting it. In addition, we do not win. This is complicated for everyone. and I arrived in the middle of it."
i like uncle bob just for the comedy value and whats more i think Sky are missing a trick not selling another box to their fuckwit subscribers. If they're willing to pay for HD, just think how many would snap up a system that converts the picture to black and white, speeds up the action like a 20's newsreel, and plays silent movie piano music in the background everytime Pires gets the ball.. It may not get must actual match use but still..
