Dalglish is one of the most overrated managers of all time, not first time i have said this either.

 

10 points off 4th despite spending over 100 million  :memelol:

correct me if I'm wrong here but didn't they finish 6th last year? so they've spent 100m and on the evidence so far its to go backwards, oh and win the Carling Cup on pens against a championship side

'Dr Manhattan' got permanently banned from RAWK for saying "39 points after 26 games was awful in late 2010, now it's progress apparently".

 

From reading on there he seemed like one of the few sensible, realistic posters. Didn't follow the rules of the cult though by having his own opinion.

had he also mentioned how much Dalglish has spent they'd have organised a boycott of New York.

It'll be a good day when WBA overtake them in the table.

 

Aye, Woy's only four points back now.

 

Would be epic if they finished behind us and Woy.

Really? He was a sound poster.

 

Sadly, that's the current state of affairs on RAWK. It's become a police state since Kenny became manager.

I honestly don't see the point of running a fourm like that.

Yep.......in the end, it's not really a forum.

Agreed. It was never like that before (Benitez haters were tolerated just fine, and while no Kenny, he is still revered thanks to Istanbul).

 

TBH, I find it very surprising. Especially Pheeny. I interact quite a lot with him in the cycling thread, and I would never have expected him to behave like this, locking threads just for criticising Kenny regardless of whether the criticism was well-founded and -reasoned or not.

 

I mean, the RAWK mods have always been significantly stricter than on here, but that's understandable given RAWK's much larger number of posters (and therefore idiots).

 

But they've been swept up in this whole them-against-us siege mentality that's massively intensified since this Suarez thing blew up (it has been there for a long time), and RAWK's football forum really has turned into something resembling a police state.

 

In a way, it's not entirely surprising because Scousers have a very pronounced them-vs-us mentality, but I'd always pegged the RAWK mods as significantly more objective than your average person.

 

Personally, I find the North Korean attitude to criticism of Kenny embarrassing. And of course, the same is true of the entire club's behaviour surrounding the Suarez-Evra affair.

 

I've always found the loyalty of Liverpool fans enormously endearing—their tendency to give a manager time, to let him build his own side before passing judgement and to assess him on his own terms—in stark contrast to, say, Real Madrid or Schalke fans. There is little reflexive outrage that we didn't get into the CL, or that we lost this or that game. But the flip side of that is this embarrassingly dogmatic dedication to King Kenny, regardless of what the current reality is.

 

And I'm inclined to say that it most affects the most hardcore fans, the ones who have best embodied this admirable mantra of patience and one-step-at-a-time progression. It's sad.

 

By comparison, I'm a very casual fan, but I've always been proud to be a part of what i considered to be a largely knowledgable, reasonable and intelligent fanbase. At the moment, I'm far more embarrassed than proud. And that has nothing to do with the way the team is playing.
