  And why did Friedel go down so quick for their 2nd goal.He did'nt need to.

Cos he's shit !

[The Man With A Stick]

Well, what a binbag full of old wank this season has been.  Losing against Blues and Wolves was bad enough but this takes the piss.  They might as well put the 2010-11 DVD in the bargain bins now.

If we lose against the pie munchers we might still be looking over our shoulders nervously for a week or so.

It's more the management team people have a problem with. Houllier has earned his stripes. McAllister?

So who should take over, Sid, KM perhaps, maybe General K. The guys a useless twunt, he's relegated enough teams to prove it, but he's all we have, sadly

[Toronto Villa]

I really can't get my head around people blaming Houllier for today's result.

Agreed.

Yeah poor Gerard.  Having that clueless twat Gary Mac forced on him like that.  If only Gerard could have brought in his own number 2, then we wouldn't have had that useless prat in charge of us today.  Oh wait........

so McAllister was his initial choice as assistant? I think you might find that you incorrect on that and he wanted Thompson instead.

Neither can I but you know they've been lying dormant for the past couple of weeks itching to give it another go. He wasn't at the game but somehow he caused our defeat. I find that kind of thinking borderline mental.

Fuck me TV give it a rest.Your backing of the board this season no matter what is mental.

Cmon, if our defender hadn't kicked the ball onto their striker, he'd have saved it. The main mistake was minutes before anyway, the major mistake was taking off Coker for Pires.

[Chipsticks]

Certainly worrying stuff as we have yet to play Liverpool and go away to the Emirates.

We'll be looking over our shoulder for a bit now.

I was unaware there were only two men available to be considered for this role. Unlucky, Gerard.

No doubt the real weirdos will be out soon calling for Sid to take over.

Anyone YOU call a weirdo is likely to be a perfectly sane, normal person.

[Toronto Villa]

and here's the other thing. Why does Sid get none of the blame. I'm guessing he and McAllister speak about tactics and what to do in certain situations. If people are going to throw mud at McAllister then throw it at Sid as well.

Personally, I don't think we have the weapons "right now" to play the way that Houllier wants us to, and put in a situation of having to press on and win a game we just can't do it very well.

[Muscle-Dolphin]

I hate to say it, but we really miss Milner.  Houllier needs to go - his lame personality has rubbed off on the team.

[pauliewalnuts]

I'm of the opinion that Houllier should get next season at least to try to sort us out properly

I disagree Paulie, it just hasn't worked.
The other minus point is that when you get Houllier, you get McAllister as part of the package.

A fresh approach needed for next season.

The main reason I'd be inclined to do it is because otherwise, it means ripping up any good work he's done behind the scenes, and starting again.

admittedly, it's not the most fulsome of backings, but that's the way I'm leaning now.

Although, to be honest, I suspect it is all academic as he'll bow out on medical grounds. If that happens, it absolutely MUST happen at the start of the summer - absolutely no fucking about waiting months by Mr Lerner.

This season has been a fuck up from start to finish on lots of levels at the club, including the brass, I am afraid. That's bad enough, but walking into the same situation again this summer would be unforgiveable.

so you seem to have knowledge of who was out of work and available, or who might have just pakced up on their current employer a month into the season and walked to Villa Park. Who should he have got instead?

Yep, there are enough managers around who'd want the job, we proved in January there's money there and there'll be plenty of highly-paid deadwood departing over the summer.

If Houllier's got any sense he'll step down, I wouldn't fancy another 12 stressful months managing this shower of utter shit if I had a dodgy ticker.
