Sack the Manager?

[Concrete John]

Remeber end of the 1995 season when we beat Liverpool?

[Billy Walker]

Liverpool have lost one game fewer than us.  They are more than beatable.  From Liverpool down there isn't much to choose between the teams in the current league.

How have they done compared to us since they bit the bullet and sacked their manager?

Do you attribute their improved form solely to the fact that they fired Hodgson? Or is it largely, perhaps even mainly, that they had the luxury of Dalglish waiting in the wings?

You appoint a manager, it's obvious that for whatever reason it isn't working, and you replace him and move on.  It's worked for Liverpool and to a certain extent Newcastle, but keeping the chuffing useless Houllier hasn't worked for us.

It didn't work for Newcastle in the season they got relegated. I don't think for a second sacking for the sake of it and hiring some useless, depressing English manager like Allardyce or Curbishley would do us any better than sticking with Houllier.

It could hardly do any worse!

But we need a re-think once the season is over and then, if Randy decides it hasn't worked, start a comprehensive and ambitous recruitment exercise, including managers already in jobs, and get the best we possibly can.

If we don't win tomorrow, I think the fans will be in an apoplectic rage and huge panic as we are likely to drop into the relegation zone.  Mass hysteria and "Houllier out" rants from the Holte End. I'm not against Mr Houllier at all but he has created this and needs to end it for himself by getting the win we need.

Well with a fully fit squad and he's been backed to the hilt by Lerner so yes anything but 3 PTs tomorrow or the boos will be ringing out
