there's very little reason for kids to learn algebra, trigonometry or geography, but they do....you know why ? because it teaches them how to learn and different ways to use their brains. it's like asking why a footballer should do some weight training instead of just playing football all the time. i say this as someone who ditched french when 13. i'd like to go on that the powers that be want to see it that languages etc are pointless and just want to turn out whatever the business world wants ie factory fodder for the most part. the point of education is to educate for life not purelty to provide fodder to feed the economy. More and more I'm teaching kids to pass exams rather than teaching the actual subject. It's what we're all judged on since the government introduced league tables and has become the be-all and end-all. I'm sure Erik Peters would agree.

Indeed it is. my geography is f***ed. i thought st gallen was quite central but up that way if you know what i mean but it's way to the north east of where i thought it was. Thing is in most countries the natives will speaking multiple languages, we are an absolute disgrace as a nation for not speaking more, tbf English is apparently the easiest to learn, but still were a shambles when it comes to learning and teaching another language. i always understood it (english) was a difficuilt language to learn but ther most necessary if you want to get anywhere. Thing for is though, seeing as we are an Island, to get to Europe you go through France or Belguim as a rule(when not flying), yet French isn't compulsory is our schools, i think it should be imo like. It is. Well, it may not be French but kids learn a language all the way through. I'll rephrase that - kids are given 'an opportunity' to learn a language.

Think of the anti-social behaviour it'll bring to the currently faultless place and the pollution. Don't forget the pollution of the muslim cars.

Just the 3 or 4 uncharacteristic mistakes today.

If they are looking at Coloccini then his contract situation won't matter. New deal, old deal, if the money is there then he'll go. Absolutely want him to stay as he's one of the best defenders I've seen in black and white. Love him but I know the realities of the situation.

Clipped it down a bit.

Mag on a water buffalo. Get the cunt changed.

A caribou is a reindeer. That's more of an ox. Just saying.

Was a one game ban which was served in the cup against Everton wasn't it?

He's 30 years old and this his 14th season as a professional footballer for Leeds, Man U and us. Does he really need to squeeze every single penny out of this (ludicrous) contract? At what point does playing become more important than making even more money? He must have been paid millions and millions of pounds over the course of those 14 years. He's a multi-millionaire and he still doesn't want to sacrifice a single penny so he can actually continue his career and earn his money. Bates gave him the chance to continue earning at £30k a week whilst playing regularly in an attempt to get his home-town club back into the Premier League. He turned it down because he didn't want to miss out financially. He's got his priorities wrong. If he's 10 years younger and got loads of time left then I can understand it - Sidwell at Chelsea. This cunt though...

Bang on. He's already turned the chance of football at Leeds. He'd rather make more money not playing than drop down a division and actually earn his money. Greedy prick. If someone offered you double your salary to sit at home and do nowt, would you? £60k and not playing OR £30k and playing? No brainer tbh. We've made the sackless cunt a multi-millionaire and playing football should now be his priority when he's only got a few seasons left in his useless legs. The fact he's unwilling to take a wage cut speaks volumes about the wanker. Nothing but contempt for him as a human being.

Seen loads of Liverpool supporters questioning him already. A couple of bad results and he'll definitely feel the pressure. They don't count.

We're the same with Keegan though, so we can't really have a go at them for it. By we, I mean me and cp40. Aye, but for every you and cp40, there were people on the other side of the fence to even things out, and then you had me in somewhere in the middle. With the scouse, the likes of you and cp40 would seem conservative and balanced. I've met Swedish Liverpool supporters who says things like they don't mind losing a game, because King Kenny is there. I find that sickening, and it's not made any better by the fact that I think he's no more than a decent manager with a red ugly face and that he's a whinging little t***. A no more than decent manager who has won trophies, not many of them around are there? I should have added "these days". The mans a winner, simple as. We'll see how many the goon wins this time, My money is on zip and i'll be happy to be proved wrong. Norwich at home for fooks sake 29 shots on goal, 15 on target. Our finishing was woeful, but while we are creating so many chances they'll soon start going in. It was a disappointing game considering the amount of possession we had. Won't win you the league though. This argument is going nowhere and to be fair again the tide you are saying some decent stuff here. What really interests me is the board and fns tolerance at L'pool. Would you settle for 5th this year - it looks pretty likely..... With the decline of quality under the previous owners, we were only playing catch up in the last two windows, probably the next one too. No we won't win the league this season, never expected us to. I did, and do,expect top 4 though. I think ALL fans are tolerant when they believe they've been given the right man for the job. Hodgson is the first manager in my life time who wasn't appointed because he was the best man for the job. That's not to say that they've all worked out, they haven't, but at the time of appointment they've been the best for our club. Even Souness. He was doing so well in Scotland he was the obvious choice to take over from Kenny, it didn't work out, but he was the right appointment at the time. Kenny Dalglish is the right man now and he'll be given a chance by the fans for a long while yet. And if you don't get your top 4 expectations sated? We'll be there again next season then. In the last 50 years we haven't finished lower than 8th, I think we'll be top 4 this season. I think they'll turn on him. In a way i hope you're right but the modern football fan (even of the scouse ilk) is a fickle beast I agree with you but there's still a very large hardcore who will stick with the manager when they can see what he's trying to do. We have as many bellends as every team and they knee jerk after every match that's not won, but they aren't the fans that matter are they? As with Rafa Benitez, the fans actually in the ground will support the manager until such time as he appears to have taken them as far as he can. No fans I spoke to at the match wanted to see Rafa go, we all knew how he was being starved of money. He did a fantastic job under dire circumstances in most fans opinions. Kenny Dalglish will be given even more tolerance by the fans who count. Wow. Which fans count and which ones don't? The ones in the ground singing his name are the ones who'll be heard, so that counts for a lot. The ones who don't count? The dickhead ones who phone talkshite and make points that have no base in reality. Don't even know what to say to that. It's almost like you're suggesting the only fans who are worthy of commenting sensibly on the situation are the fans who go to games. All other fans are not worthy of an opinion. But that would be f***ing barmy so you can't be saying that... No, I said the fans in the ground can show their support, and do, by chanting/singing his name. They take banners to show their support, so if there was a groundswell of opinion against a manager it would show there mostly. As this didn't happen for Benitez, and hasn't happened for Dalglish, you can assume that LFC fans supported Benitez and do support Dalglish. It was in the ground that Hodgson lost his job because the fans were singing 'Hodgson fo England' and shouting for Dalglish. Dickheads who call radio phone ins are usually, in my estimation, unaware of the reality of situations on and off the pitch. The talk inside the ground and listening to phone ins are very often, totally different. Would you say that the fans inside the ground, showing their support/anger for managers are more important than those who don't attend? The fans inside the ground make/break managers? Is that what you're getting at? I would say fans in the ground have more influence, nothing to do with importance. Yes, fans inside the ground can make or break a manger, look at your own Allardyce. I wasn't getting at anything, I said that the fans who count won't turn against Kenny, the ones who can be heard if you like. Fair play.

Dalglish is bullet-proof. If it turns pear shaped then he'll escape criticism and it'll be someone else's fault.

Really? Not surprised like, anyone would think the fans hounded Hodgson out. Liverpool fans don't do that. Apparently. Can you do me one of your fixture comparisons? On games this season?

'cunt' is censored. What's the point in censoring the third most used word (after mag and magedia) on the forum? Love how incredibly hostile they all are, as soon as a mag makes a post, there's always someone there telling him to fuck off You get used to it.

We are strong leaders. We will show his strength by not only succumbing to the wishes of the fans but we shall openly perform the inverse of what they propose. We are strong leaders.

Said it before on here: I'd make it a rule that the only player who could initiate a conversation with the ref is the captain. The other 10 are only to speak to the ref when they're spoken to.
