Dan Roan just retweeted a BBC presenter's tweets saying he has good info that we're closing in on Rodgers.

Martinez DoF + Rodgers Manager?

must be true

Are you saying Dan Roan is not reliable?

Please don't tell me you're one of those morons that says "It's on twitter so it must be bullshit". Twitter has nothing to do with it, it's the user that matters.

If Tony Barrett writes something in the Times, is it more credible then if he wrote it on Twitter? It's exactly the same.

Dan Roan is extremely reliable and was the one breaking all the news on Broughton + Puslow's court case against H+G.

I'm not saying it's defo true but there must be something to it for him to be highlighting it.

Cool. Thanks for sharing your valued thoughts on the matter.



Also no need to write an eassy on the topic. We understand why you think that.

Because if he did bad at LFC his reputation would have taken a big blow.

Which job can you do bad at and NOT have your reputation take a big blow?

If anything, the Liverpool job is perfect for his reputation because we're pretty much expected to be mid table now. The only way he could really be hurt is if he got us in a relgation fight.

So you think he should stay at Wigan for the rest of his career?

Fuck this club if we get Rodgers.

Liverpool expect more than mid table...

Because even if you are midtable the fans in general expect Champions league football, and that won't happen any time soon.

@collie

a retweet means nothing. I don't care who tweeted it, i don't give a fuck if it is bbc,times or whatever fuck else headline news.

After supporting liverpool all my life, i know that reporters basically know nothing and we should take everything with a grain of salt.

You have to take risks to move forward.

Yeah but he needs time, something Daglish didn't have despite winning your first trophy in a long time, shows that the owners are impatient..

Then put me on ignore and stop making shitty little comments about the stuff I post.

I've followed every saga that's happened to this club VERY closely and I know there's a small amount of journos that know a great deal about the inner workings of this club. If you think they all know nothing then you're clueless. There's a reason why papers like The Times and Guardian have a higher accuracy rate.

The fact is, the stuff I've been posting in here has been from trusted sources and the majority of it looks on course to come true.

If reporters know nothing, how did I make a post last night stating that Martinez and the yanks will meet in Liverpool today? There's been no quotes about this. Whelan said there will be talks but everyone thought they'd be in America again. How did the people I follow know this?

Kuled wrote:Yeah but he needs time, something Daglish didn't have despite winning your first trophy in a long time, shows that the owners are impatient..

The king had time. ( a year and a half) we started so well..... I remember reading everywhere and thinking that we would put a real challenge for cl and possibly the title. We had a good team and then the transfer window came....... We had our first big spending in years and kenny ruined it. I don't need to explain this....

Yet we had faith in him and we had faith that the owners knew what they were doing. The stats were good right? We started well but were just unlucky.... I remember how at certain points that if we had not hit the post in a few games then we would be near the top of the table. It was sooooo unlucky.

As time went by... unlucky turned into shit. just like downing, ( anyone remember when he had that shot against Sunderland? hit the post and he was just brilliant)

At the end of the season, we were playing the worse football in the league. did we have any tactics?? while we had good cup runs, nothing pointed to us getting better over time. Kenny failed and didn't deserve time, the cup runs were overshadowed by the league campaign.

Martinez will get time, (just like kenny did, extra season after a hell of a finish) he just has to show us progressing. Everyone says the owners want to put a long term project in place, the owners should back him if he shows progression. (everything points to that at least)

inb4 a trophy is progression.


I just want to add again, kenny didn't show us progressing. We took a step forward under him then seemingly took two steps back.

Moving on, here's Martinez at MANCHESTER Airport.

Don't see anything indicating that this the MANCHESTER Airport.

He is still wearing his watch.

There's obviously reporters/journalists who are credible and more so than others, but I'd still take most of it with a pinch of salt. So I'd actually agree with NZG here. Yeah the likes of Barrett and a few others are good when it comes to Liverpool, but don't be taking everything they say as gospel. They don't know everything. I've followed Barrett for years and he's been wide of the mark on many of things, though he's got his fair share right.

Anyone remember Kenny Huang was buying Liverpool? And he was backed the Chinese Goverment? Barrett and Evans ran the story, front page of the Times, 4 page story! Haha. I remember buying the paper in work.

Talk about failing in spectacular fashion, not only did Huang not buy the club, he was NEVER close to buying it, nor was he EVER backed by the Chinese Goverment. He was merely a con-man trying to receive publicity. And Barrett and co had him down as the best thing since sliced bread.

Fuck.... I remember that... We would be backed by 4 trillion or some shit.

we were so foolish. Honestly belived that shit

He said Journos know nothing. As I said earlier, just because they're trusted sources doesn't make it true, just that there must be something in it, meaning they don't just pull it out of their arse like some/most journos do.

You've brought up ONE story that Barrett has got wrong, ok it was a big story, but it's still just ONE. He's been right plenty of times but you don't bring them up.

I'll repeat. You can agree with NZG all you like but you've repeated what I said, some journos are more trusted than others, it doesn't make what they say true, but they will have something solid to go on before they open their mouths. Not once have I said that what they will predict will defo come true. I suggest you read my points before you go against them.

Point that Dean tried to make to me while disagreeing with me.

Might of been just ONE, but it was the biggest story in the history of LFC, and they failed on epic proportions. That was probably worth 10 little stories that one. Oh and and I'll name another one, just recently actually...

When Kenny returned home from the US, Barrett tweeted 'Kenny has NOT been sacked, nor has he resigned'

WRONG, Kenny had been sacked.

Biggest story in the history of LFC? You're fucking brilliant. A potential buyer is the biggest thing in our history? Please, have a look at yourself.

It was two days after he got back until he was sacked.

I was a bit at "biggest story in the history of LFC".

ScottyBoy_1989 wrote:I was a bit at "biggest story in the history of LFC".

He realized that he'd disagreed with me using my exact points, so he had to over exaggerate the one valid point he made(even though it wasn't valid because I clearly said something from a trusted source isn't guaranteed to be true).

biggest story

I barely followed that shit.

Twitter is shit. fuck keeping up with all the news.

I only log in a couple times every year to check out Kay Murray's pics

If we do get Rodgers, it'll get the best out of Reina again. Not sure how Carroll will fair.

Just watched the highlights from the 4-1 game with Chelsea. Wish we'd play with that sense of urgency, confidence and prowess in every game. Carroll and Suarez were delightful. Henderson and Shelvey in the middle bossed the game, bearing in mind that they were up against Essien and Ramires, which makes it even more impressive.

I had hoped we'd take that performance into our last game of the season, vs Swansea, but we didn't. It's ridiculous.

Dalglish just couldn't motivate the team for inferior games. Next man better remedy that.

Shame Swansea have pretty much signed Gylfi already

Martinez DOF and Rodgers manager is probably my least favourite option.

Van Gaal/Rodgers is the most likely one.
