He wouldn't have bought Bent with the money Houllier had, more like Keane and McGeady.Oh and he'd probably have given Carew a new £80k a week contract until he was 36. I don't buy that from you Maz. Come on, you're never anything but positive about the team and club. I'm not arsed trawling back through old posts but I'm sure a week before the season started you were confident that we'd at least do as well as last season and even after Milner going you would have been waxing lyrical at who we could buy with the money and how good Ireland could be. You constantly talk us up and I'm glad you (and Chrismith to an extent) do because most of us are far too much the other way.

Each year we seemed to not rate his signings and predict a slump from where we were the previous year
