Lovely story "this is where you belong son" RIP Harry

No, we went by bus. Stopped off in France, Switzerland and then Florence. Same on the way back. Not as bad as the train but still tiring. Good job we won or the trip back would have been...quiet! I also still have the red and white flag I bought!

I still have my original ticket. Although it was spoilt by the attendant ripping the wrong end of the ticket off!

Not Paul Walsh but Ian St John giving somebody a good punch. The good old days. Funny how he has a conversation with Tommy Smith before walking off Funny quote from Kenny DuRING his four-year spell at Southampton in the mid-eighties, Kevin Bond was most famous for being physically attacked on two separate occasions while playing against Liverpool.The first time was in a meeting at The Dell. Pint-sized striker Paul Walsh floored the towering centreback with a right hook after being spat at following an on-field grapple between the pair.Reds boss Kenny Dalglish turned around to Walsh afterwards and said: 'If there's one person I don't mind you slapping it's him'.Three days later Southampton travelled to Anfield in the league, where this time an angry fan charged across the pitch after the full-time whistle and planted a blow on the uncompromising …

If they build the team around Torres then I think he will score loads of goals. But will they do that or continue with the 3 upfront? If they do that then Torres will not be as affective . I would not be surprised if Le Sulk and Drogba leave in the summer.

I started watching the Red towards the end of Tommy Lawrence time. He played 390 games with an average of 1.04 goals per game. Clem played 665 games with a goal average of .89 and Bruce played 628 games with a goal average of .85. As you can see the dominant Liverpool teams made it easy for the goalkeeper at that time! Clem was great in the air ( the ball in those days was more predictable in flight) and had great concentration, although like all keepers could make a howler or two. Bruce was highly unpredictable but at times brilliant. Tended to go walk about when he got bored! Pepe is one of the best modern keepers and has to deal with a football that moves all over the place in the air, and also playing in a weaker Liverpool team.

yeah your right, what I meant to say was Nottingham was a top night out!

I was from Nottingham and for a while Forest had the hex over us. They played a game where they defended in numbers and played on the break to good effect. I can remember Hansen and co when playing at Forest passing the ball across the back for minutes at a time because Forest would not come out and try and get the ball! lucky for me I was able to attend the matches with my Forest mates so getting a kicking was rare. Larry Lloyd used to have a pub in Nottingham, used to run it with John Robertson. Top place for a night out if you ever visit.

Yes you are right. Nobody could probably afford him. Let him rot in the reserves. I know its an unlikely scenario but maybe one club could make a stand against these mercernary cretins

Nothing less than 50 million and never ever sell him to a PL club. Either he agrees to go to a club overseas or stays. Liverpool are bigger than any footballer no matter who he is!

The Kings first team talk

Ferguson, the totally classless c*** comparing Liverpool to Hereford or Yeovil. A great mate of Roy, they go well together. I can imagine Rafa or Kenny sticking that quote up on the dressing room wall and asking the players if they thought it was funny! At the end of the day it's a cup tie and I'm taking it exactly that way," he said. "I'm taking nothing for granted. Liverpool will still be dangerous, absolutely. It's a cup tie and there are shocks in cup ties. There have been great reminders of that over the years, Hereford beating Newcastle, it's happened with Yeovil Town and York City, Bournemouth beating Manchester United. It's a tournament you can't take for granted."

Could the team just not have turned up and forfeited the match 3-0? Roy has reached way above his level of incompetence but the players need to take a good look at themselves as well.

If there are any players who read this forum...................what the hell is going on?

We should all be cheering the team on but once a manager becomes available who can take the club forward then RH should be dumped. He is not good enough to manage Liverpool.

Will gave me a warning status for ''disrespecting the Liverpool manager". All I said was he was a silly billy............or something like that! And that was a few weeks ago. I presume I can call him a nitwit now?

One of the journalists in the Guardian mentioned Torres told Carra to shut up in the first 3 minutes. Does not sound good and i know which player I would sacrifice if it came to the crunch.

Barclay sounds like the son of Nostrodamus. What sign tells him that this event will happen?

We trained hard . . . but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization.

I suppose we could limp through to the end of the season with him sitting in the dugout looking like a rabbit caught in a car high beam. Problem is he will have bought more crap in the transfer window and all our best players will have either been sold or informed their agents to find them another club. It will take years to rebuild the club. Needs to be given his redundancy money and escorted off site

As Motson said it looked simple but it was all about the movement. Always having a player available to pass to. Compare that to how the team plays this season!

Yep that's the one. Thing is I was there for the a*** match! Must be getting old

I thought that was when we won Forest 5-0. McMahon stopped the ball on the line, ran out of play, got back an tipped the ball passed the oncoming Forest player. Great stuff. As someone remarked the great Liverpool teams were not 11 world class players but as a TEAM they played some fantastic stuff.

Kev I have heard various quotes from people who heard the interview that it could be interpreted both ways. I am not really using it as a stick, more baffled how our best CB is not being used. From watching the games it seems Carra is way out of form and Skrtel is not the best bringing the ball out of defence. I just cannot see Roy getting any better in the job. I hope I am wrong and we go on a long unbeaten run and end up in the top 4.

I have been a Liverpool fan for over 40 years and spent most of my money when I was a lad watching the Reds. This must be the most depressing period I have known. I can remember losing to Watford in the quarter finals of the FA Cup with disbelief but knew the manager would turn in around. With this clown we have managing the club all I see is a downward spiral and its frightening. He does not want to play out best CB, because he is not one to hoof the ball into the stands. He is clueless when it comes to tactics, and is turning one of the worlds top strikers into a peripheral figure and who will most likely jump ship in the new year. Its Blackburn all over. I would like him gone now but I suspect the P45 will not be sent out soon. It playing out like some Shakespeare tragedy.
