New season, new thread. Should be another good one this year with the Benitez love and Hodgson hate.
Gonna love the reaction to Torres' agents comments in the papers today... (waiting in anticipation)
Why start a new thread ? Why not keep using the classic one ?

according to one of their better posters the Daily Mirror will not be happy until Liverpool football club goes out of business!They've gone absolutely mental in the "Liverpool announce that Roy Hodgson has been appointed" thread regarding Hodgson saying he's good mates with Fergie..LOL
just read from here onwards in the thread for a great laugh
Liverpool announce that Roy Hodgson has been appointed (*)

Quote from: Finn Solomon
At least now with the new Football Manager games, I won't feel quite so guilty about coming in to replace Hodgson as I was about replacing Rafa.
I think the size of these threads gets a little embarrassing anyway. So if we're going to have them then they need to be broken up.
1. The old one was for the 09/10 season
2. The old one was over 150 pages
What I don't get is how they can't see that The Mirror is perhaps the most pro-scouse paper in the world. Perhaps even on par with The Echo. Half of The Mirror's reporters are admitted Liverpool fans, but they still think it's biased against them. What a bunch of paranoid Ihni binni dimi diniwiny anitaime.![]()

The league's best keeper, and stated he is committed to Liverpool
The league's best footballing centre half, and stated he is committed to Liverpool
The league's best defender, and will only ever play for Liverpool
The league's most complete midfielder, looking like he will stay at Liverpool
The leagues most lethal striker, looking like he will stay at Liverpool
Two World Cup winners, and two runners up at Liverpool

When did Van Der Sar, Ferdinand, Vidic, Essien and Drogba join Liverpool?
Well first thing I came across was unbelievable. One guy worried about Roy being successful and showing Rafa up:
"I'm just worried that if Hodgson has any success with the current squad, a squad Rafa put together... then they'll use that to validate how shit they(media) always knew Rafa was."
amazing.

Rubbish. For instance. I've seen plenty of times when we didn't have a good game, struggled and nicked a late goal in a game, to win it 1-0 and got roundly slated by all and sundry.
The Mancs (For comparison) would play like a bag of shite, get a last minute winner and then would be fawned over by the media.
I mean, where is your confusion over this? It's not like it's a new thing or just started happening last week. Been going for years. The press have their favourite sides they suck up to and report well on and they have their least favourite sides who they dislike. Whenever Liverpool have won anything in my lifetime, generally speaking (There have been exceptions, I'll grant you) any praise is grudging and usually contains a few barbs.
Rubbish. Arsenal are far more often ripped to shreds by the media than Manchester United. Manchester United get a very easy ride - because they get banned if they dare to print a contrary word about Ferguson. Be interesting to see if these gutless wonders will start printing crap about you lot once he's shuffled off.
In the same way that the Facht Man has been given five years of credit for winning the Champions League with Houlier's team.Seveneric;8296531 quoting Scouse tit said:"I'm just worried that if Hodgson has any success with the current squad, a squad Rafa put together... then they'll use that to validate how shit they(media) always knew Rafa was."
