Plus your #8's an irritating ****; looks a proper Billy Big Biscuits. Should stick to playing bass for U2.

Was hoping that a promoted mob might take him, so he wouldn't bang in any against us. Had to take the offer though, no doubt.

We looked pretty impotent against Derby, and while Grayson bringing Beckford over might help, still can't really warm to it.

RIP Brian Woolnough

From The Guardian.

Daily Star & former Currant Bun football writer and presenter of Sky's Sunday Supplement show passes away after a fight with bowel cancer.

Poor guy. Ironically the last time I saw him on the programme I thought how good he was looking. He'd lost weight, which was almost definitely his chemo, I guess.

From the old school transfer talk/knee jerk school of sports hackery, but a big voice in the domestic game.

Carragher is getting annihilated. Top game this, Liverpool youngsters look exciting in patches, established players like the captain and Downing a laughing stock.

If Borini doesn't score here he never will.

Agree with this, Suso has looked excellent, albeit a rough diamond. Wisdom's been solid as well. Been a very odd game in general.

Just watching Being: Liverpool on 5.

Henry just came out with a steaming pile of excretia. He said, after Dalglish had got the arse, that when Kenny had initially got the job they'd had a discussion and he (Dalglish) understood at some point he'd have to step aside.

Well, yeah, but that's because you originally appointed him as caretaker. I imagine he expected more permanency when he was made full-time manager.

The superfluous colon in the programme title is irritating too, tbh.

This programme is genius!

I really don't think it's working on the level Liverpool had imagined tho, unless a footy version of This Is Spinal Tap was their goal.

When they come to remake The Office Rodgers is a shoo in for David Brent. Highlights so far:

"I wasn't born with a silver spoon; I had a silver shovel"

"Everyone who works for Liverpool makes as important a contribution as me because they work for Liverpool"

"Player plus environment equals behaviour"




Man, he's a ****ing idiot.

OMFG.

Rodgers has a ****ing huge portrait of himself on his dining room wall. I literally cannot believe it.
