Slogged his way up the hard way. He's 30 and this is probably his last/only chance for a juicy contract - good luck to him.

meanwhile - back to the managerless Liverpool. It appears that Dalglish's training methods were not as popular as they might have been
That funny footwear makes him look ridiculous.
Eden Hazard to Chelsea. Lucky bu**ers. I thought he might have come to QPR
Yep, did well to whore himself about.
Great signing. Bet his agent is popping the Bolly.

Add to that list 'no replica shirts'.
I was in one of the sponsor-type hospitality boxes and no replica shirts were allowed (good job I found this out just before leaving home). I think the authorities want to maintain a very neutral sterile environment and keep the riff-raff out...but I got in anyway. Shame about the result, but then i half expected it.

That just shows how out of touch the football authorities really are. The ones that go to football looking for trouble don't wear colours, the true fans do.
And at Wembley you can't hear the opposing fans singing, so there's no backwards and forwards chanting.
Plus the bogs at half time are full of fans having a quick smoke! If you time it right, you can get a fag in, couple of pints, another fag and back to your seat in time for the second half!

Hi Ian
No real idea about Holt - I think they are rumours he's had an argument with Lambert.
Lambert is really the most important person we need to keep - luckily the empty jobs seem to linked with Rogers (which I understand) and Martinez (which I can't)
The latest statement from Lambert tried to play the whole thing down - hopefully we'll keep both.

Holt owes it all to Lambert - he had failed before and only got good under Lambert, as did Ruddy - who Everton didn't rate.
Yup, keeping Lambert is of the uptmost importance. What a great manager you have.
Rogers and Martinez are fools to go anywhere else. Both are doing well with their respective teams and have the support of both the fans and the chairmen of the clubs. OK they can hit a good payday with Liverpool, but as we all know, sometimes these things do not work out and then they will have to start at the beginning again.

I agree - not just because I want Lambert to stay.
He has invested the last 3 years in building an effective team out of young players and players no-one rated.
It must be amazingly satisying - like playing Championship manager in the real world - to find Holt (who'd been with Shrewsbury in League 2) and Ruddy (who was Evertons number 3) and find them knocking on the door for an England place.
For Lambert, Rogers and Martinez they need to build further with their teams and show they can establish themselves in the Premier League before moving on to teams like Liverpool, who will expect silverware and Europe.
Most would crash and burn at Liverpool.
The team needs a rebuild and the owners won't go for that.
Like most owners these days they want results now... not in 2 or 3 years time.
Yh a point that should be made clear. I think people should take a leaf out of Chelsea book. How many managers? And also you can't buy a team which man city fans got excited overnight with.

Exactly.
Liverpool are owned by people who don't understand football, it's traditions or it's fans. They want Champion's League money, they want it now and they think it can be bought. When the team doesn't get three points off everyone in the bottom half of the table they don't get the joke, they think they need a new manager.
What they really need is to eff off back to their college baseball or where ever they came from.
