The funny thing  is, if we manage to stay up by the scrape of our teeth he'd be given full backing next season by the board. If we get relegated he'd be out ASAP.

Say what u like about o' Neil but he was a really good motivator, something gh clearly doesn't have.

Surely even if we do stay up he will not be given any backing, Randy must act

I can see why u say this, but I honestly do think the board will stick with him disregarding how he's made us worse, falling out with players, sacrificing FA cup etc...

Randy is a successful business man, if someone is fucking his business up i'm certain he will act

I'd like Gianfranco zola, great man, great player and very promising as a manager too for his tactical knowledges, his experience and his vision of football.

He won't be sacked till the end of the season, by which time it will be too late..

Play gabby as a striker and he'll get goals
Wasn't it 16 last season
That prick houllier shoves him on the wing where he's ineffective

Agree. The problem is Darren Bent. He will always get you more goals than Gabby and so that eases Gabby out of the team. I have made clear the fact I favour 4-5-1 but in all honesty the Ash in the hole thing is even less effective than 4-4-2 and erodes all the advantages of playing 4-5-1. Gabby would get us more goals than Ash playing upfront. I can't think of any successful team who plays three wingers.  Gabby has suffered very much for poor management and injuries this season.

I'd like Gianfranco zola, great man, great player and very promising as a manager too for his tactical knowledges, his experience and his vision of football.

An interesting shout. I might quite like that. I think half the problem for him at West Ham was the shameful way Gollivan treated him more than a lack of ability on his part.

There is NO WAY that RL will sack Houllier.
To sack him would reflect very, very badly on RL's judgement in appointing him in the first place.

Mind you, keeping him will reflect even worse.

^not necessarily. Randy can point to other factors such as injuries, disruptive dressing room and not least MON leaving us in the shit five days before the season started.

Yeah, and not to sack him will reflect very badly on our ability to stay up.
