Agree totally if they dont like being at our club or they dont like being told what to do then in the Summer they can all leave, lets just see how many of them will find a better club than ours!

I am just so pissed off with there big time Charlie attitudes! - and they wonder why peopl are so fed up of football?

Someone tell that im wrong but even though I think Footballers are pampered and are not in the real world and That everyone is saying Houlier is right to enforce his strict regime why does this not happen all over the premiership?

Are we saying that Ferguson, Wenger, Moyes, Redknapp, Dalglish all let their players do what they want as long as they perform on the pitch because I cant see it.

I agree with comments like "well they earn millions so they should be strict" and all the rest of it, the same way Kids are spoilt today than in my day but something is just wrong with Houlier.

He may have some valid points but the way he goes about it isint right the way he talks to the press isint right and worse than all his formation and team selection is wrong!

I've just made an appointment with my boss, I'm going to complain that he expects me to turn up to work on time and to earn my money during work time rather than fucking about on my mobile. I wonder how far I'll get?

It probably does, but winning clubs don't make good headlines.

I would imagine the sheer lack of ambition demonstrated at Man City in the FA Cup would have more of an influence in players leaving than a few "rules". Something that will aslo affect our ability to attract replacements.

Why waste your time with him, go straight to his boss.

That would have more credence if we hadn't been seeing stories like this all season.

Just one thing after another at the moment. No point saying footballers are pampered as that is the industry they live within. It cannot be as simple as banning mobiles and not allowing players to bleat to Randy as this is seemingly a non-stop barrage of bad news coming from the club.

To be fair if Houllier can somehow find a way to get the players together, and winning, then he deserves a chance next season.

Hardly shock horror news.  At least 4 of the 8 - Friedel, Warnock, Ash and Dunne - were pretty dead certs to leave at the end of the season anyway. Petrov is pretty much past it so would probably be moved on too. Collins and Young (L) may have burned their bridges with the spa-gate incident so I think they're maybe's. The only surprise to me would be if Gabby went

But I fail to see exactly what the manager has done wrong here?

What exactly is wrong with any of the supposed new rules?

It never ceases to amaze me the gullibility of some on here who see something in a paper and take it all as gospel.

its not the rules that im worried about its all the players that want to leave

Dont mind them leaving if they dont want to be here but when lots of players come out and say they want to leave something has to be wrong
