Then realising all his biscuits were missing after Rafa had left.
I'm going in lads!
Had all the required injections?
O'Shea not being sent off will probably piss them off.
They will ignore the fact that they were allround abysmal for the entire match. And were lucky that we just handed 2 goals on a plate for them.

And, a loss can be a win it seems!
To be honest the consensus opinion on RAWK is that they were rubbish and 3-2 was flattering.
There's also a lot of Hodgson bashing (it appears to be his fault) and an undercurrent of "O'Shea should have been sent off and he crossed for the winner...", which to be honest, I'd agree with - but we deserved the win so feck 'em anyway

Still buzzing too much from our game to sit down and watch Cleverley for Wigan, so here's some delightful stuff from RAWK today.
I'm happy being called that, Scum always rises to the top.
Bless the little Scouser can't understand the laws of the game
Red Card if "A clear Goalscoring Opertunity is denied".
Webb felt that Van Der Sar would have reached the ball first and because of this it was not a "clear goal scoring opertunity"
carragher owen last season was more of a goal scoring opportunity than this one
love how they are hating Hodgson already.
Scouse inbreds...a breed unto themselves

The line about Nani and a gorilla is class tbf
I do think Woy made a mistake. Meireles in behind Torres? Ridiculous really.

I have to admit the imagery behind that is quite funny, he's doing a great job of getting under opposition player and fans noses ala Ronaldo.
Great game from him today.
Meireles was our best player. Taking him off was the problem, not playing him behind Torres.
Liverpool's problems are many-fold and Meireles is waaay down the list.
Exactly. Owen had the ball near at his feet last season at Anfield, whereas today, the ball was way ahead of Torres and I think VDS would have made it and claimed the ball.
I agree but I can't understand why Meireles plays in front of Gerrard.
I was so sure i would have seen something like "the ref bottled it" in regards to Osheas card but it appears their hate for their own manager is greater than anything else... Idiots
Some of that stuff is ridiculous. This quote in particular. It wasn't us who barely caused a threat, without the exception of those set pieces.You have got to admire Benitez though, for spellbinding masses and masses of Poo supporters to the extent that they worship his mediocrity above everything else.
Is Hodgson a better manager than Benitez in your opinion?
That's not the point though is it, Benitez probably is a better manager, but he's not anywhere near as good as RAWK would lead you to believe, nowhere near
He did some very good things at Liverpool, but did an awful lot of terrible things as well
No he isn't, but still the loyalty towards Benitez there is insane Sam. He is a good manager but some of the talk about him there makes it look like that he's on par with the likes of Shankly and Paisley.
What has Bentiez done that Liverpool fans so spellbound by him? Granted he won a FA cup and UCL but after that what has he exactly achieved? He took a average squad and won the UCL then he began replacing that average squad with players who are average (at best) and created a extremely large squad that had no real quality - barring Gerrard and Torres. Had liverpool played Barcalona style football i would understand why you would want him to stay but watching them was terrible, 2 holding midfielders and try and catch the team on the break.
The guy who took over from that would have a big task on their hands.
debatable at this point of time...give roy 250 million pounds as per rafa spending
and another 5 years..maybe we can see who is better then...
Benitez didn't spend £250m.
Some of it is ridiculous, isn't it? We were the better team and could have had more than 3 goals. Nani missed a sitter, also his rocket off the post. What about Liverpool's players? Sometimes I think Jamie Carragher is a rugby player in a football shirt.
He spent more than £250m.
I agree with your first point. And your second.
So, to sum up, I agree with your post.
Righto.
The appropriate terminology is "This".
All the pundits claimed that Liverpool fought hard to get back into the game. Am I just wearing red tinted specs or was it just basically we gave Liverpool two soft goals after a couple of brain farts from the back.
To me the match was essentially United vs United's poor mental state. Liverpool barely featured into the equation aside from a couple of runs from Torres and Cole.

Well if RAWK has the loyalty toward Benitez that many claim on here, I agree, it's misguided.
The point is, have we sacked a manager and replaced him with someone inferior?
To early to tell of course but the early portents aren't that good.
Yes that's what I saw too. They got 2 goals through mistakes from our defence, from two set-pieces. It was our own feck up which got them back into the match for that brief moment.
As of October 2009 he'd spent £230 million

It's not just you.
That sad, goals are goals and Liverpool got two. The three Utd goals were down to Liverpool's patent inability to deal with crosses. Shall we write them off too?
I was in the pub which was half full of Sounthern Scouse sympathisers.
If these are the 'best supporters in the world' gauld help us...
It was so embarrassing, I can tell you. They made the sort of noise you'd only make if you were at the game, not down the pub. When Gerrard's 2nd goal went in, you would have thought they had won the league. The sort of things they were shouting, well some of them you'd get a ban on here for saying...
There were people calling for various players to get serious injuries, Scholes, Rooney, Nani (again). Its not just RAWK, they are really like that...
The United fans clearly knowledgeable and respectful, a totally different class...
