Official - Houllier leaves by mutual consent (p.28)

I have not forgotten any of the rumblings with Dunne

That was just his stomach.

I tell you why I said it - because I hated ONeill and to be honest, I'll give him any benefit of doubt I can.

But again, dont try and tell me this year has been OK, coz it was bloody awful until April - and Gerard wasnt here then !

[TheSandman]

So you want McAllister to take over? He saved our season and was our best manager this year if I'm following your argument.

I move we hand back the European Cup following our unexpected win in the final.

Considering you skills with basic maths I would really like to see you tackle quantum physics.

Can you not accept that, given how many people disagree with you, you might be over reacting.

As for the form since christmas (well since signing BENT because I really can't be bothered redoing the stats) under houllier we got 1.58 points per game.  Over a season that is 60 points.  That is top 6 form based on this seasons table.

before that (but after kmac) we got 0.875 points per game, over a season that's 33 points and would've seen us joint bottom.

If you can't see a difference in form between those 2 periods then there really is no hope for you.

To reiterate, the form from houllier taking over until we signed Bent was awful (a disaster), the form outside that time was fine and was only marginally worse than under MON the previous season.  I really don't see how you're struggling to understand this.

If youre a new man coming in, you could do with a player like Coker, who works hard and is influential. You may also have use for a talent like Carew. When he clicks with a manager, he's a talent. So it's a shame they've already gone.

But I'm not too disappointed in Ged going. He's not a Villa manager. He got it wrong more often than right, and took too long to change tac when needed, and it could have cost us. Signing Bent was good, but we did have to pay good money anyway, and any of us could have told Randy that Bent is likely to score a few, if he didn't already know. Clearly the dressing room was split over him too. Some just didn't take too him at all. Fuckers some of them may be, but it works both ways.

New appointment is key. Rafa I don't think suits as one bit. I'd worry if he came. He's not the gaffer he was before the CL win went to his head. Fact! Footballing style too, I just don't think we have the players he'd want. It take a lot of chopping and changing for him to get us playing how he wants, and the results aren't garaunteed.

Genuine lol!

This.

Although I am now confused as to how many points we finished with!

So apart from discovering that Houllier is shit, no - brilliant. Do we know if he's stepping down or not? As no where else seems to be running with this story apart from here.
