yuuichi yes please

@royal lady. He's not racist, he's just an old fashioned eccentric italian. Racist is too vague a word here in the UK. If he was really racist, then he wouldn't have any black players playing for him.


You're right. No one racist has ever accepted a black person working for them.

It's a no from me...

In my case it's because my grandfather fought against the Italian fascists in the Second World War and in his memory I'm not going to actively support a team led by one. I'm not saying everyone should hold that view and certainly wouldn't urge them to have the same view, just a personal standpoint.

Royalee Because most of our fans are astute enough and wanted the current Liverpool manager out for having a huge oxf*rd ego and trying to change the ethos of our underachieving club. For some reason flailing around the relegation zone at the time seemed quite a bright prospect..

The second half of the previous season saw us with relegation form and at the time of Rodgers' sacking we weren't actually in the drop zone, but don't let that get in the way of a flawed argument uneloquently put.

bigdon Hello my Reading Chums looks like Paolo is going to get the gig enjoy the ride. Here are a few things you should know to help you get on with your new boss.

1. Training for your players will be hard and I mean hard. Think SAS selection process.

2. If you have any big time charlie type players they are finished. Its Paolos way of your out (Or fascism as its otherwise known).

3. Paolo is basically an exact clone of the London Gangster Frankie Frazer 40 years ago.

4. Paulo has a team of about 6 people who will have varies jobs and titles their only use or importance is to manage Paolo. The most important of these people is Phil Spencer. Without Phil spencer there is no Paolo. Phil spencer will be the most important person at your club. You may not believe this now but you will find out why soon enough.

5. Paolo will think he is bigger than your club.

6. When Paolo is quiet be afraid be very afraid. If Paolo has a rant/meltdown which is about probably around 1 in every 3 games this is good it is very good it means next game you will always get a result.

7. Paolo is more passionate than your most passionate fan(might not be for very long though).

8.Paulo does tend to say f*ck quite a lot in interviews. Generally our local radio reporters tended to let it go but this could cause problems on match of the day etc.

9. Paulo will spend and spend big. Dont be surprised if he signs someone for 10 million on a monday then by wedensday says "Well he isnt as good as i thought he was" and then blames it on the player. Paolo would also spend 10 million on a player and deliberately keep him on the bench for 5 weeks to show him who is boss.

10. The Fascism thing really wont be an issue. Lets be honest If you get a draw at Old Trafford or the emirites you will all be following the fascist. I mean that as a fickle football fan and in the nicest possible way.

Welcome to management by hand grenade.


That's just what we need get some aggression in the side, the ones that cant run ship them out (and there's a few of them) for to long to long now there has been a very cosy atmosphere where the old guard was happy with the cosy untouchable world they lived in guaranteed shirt on the peg yes bri no bri three bags full bri I for one hope that the madman comes here and blows it all up and starts again preferably with players that are mobile and can pass the ball.
