Lying b******s

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Can't see it posted, but a mate forwarded a clipping from the Sunday Times - from RAWK - showing how RFH's start isn't that bad compared to Rafa.

 

I did some digging, the points totals they claim were all after 5 or 6 games, not 8 as they claimed.

 

How can they get away with that?

it is pretty poor that the facts are the central theme to that diagram/graphic etc and that they are wrong..... someone in their research department wants a straightener

[CarraLegend]

That is f***ing disgusting. But doesnt surprise me in the slightest.

[Tosh]

write to them....

Have heard from some of The Times (not Sunday Times) journos on Twitter, that they had this mocked up and ready to run from 6 games in and then didn't adjust it for when they eventually ran it after 8. Schoolboy stuff and ridiculously poor for a newspaper of that supposed standard, but not necessarily part of an anti-Liverpool agenda.

anti-rafa agenda rather than an anti-liverpool agenda

Yep, thanks for correcting.

paywall isn't doing as well as hoped.

"Disagree? We thought so. Join Times Online now and get 3 months for the price of one...."

 

Will be a wonderful sight to see their pay wall experiment crash and burn. Rupert thinks he has digital sussed, just like MySpace showed he had social networking sussed.

Had a Times Journo tweeting direct links her to her articles online when the pay wall was down the other day - excellent stuff - they don't like it either!

So,in sumary - Beinitez got more points from the first 6 games of a season than Hodgson has from the first 9 on all but one occasion.

 

Thanks to The Times for pointing that out, however inadvertently.

'Hodgson is sh*t but at least he's English' shocker.

 

There are not many times when I consciously am aware of being German and certainly not proud of it as it's accident of birth after all - but sometimes on the flip side I'm glad I'm not English.

Haha, genius, they should reprint that in 3 games time to show that Rafa Benitez Liverpool had more points after 6 games than Hodgson did after 12* in 3 of his 6 seasons

 

*this is an estimate assuming we dont get any more than 6pts from the next 3 games.

 

Whoops we've played 9 not 8.

They have about 300,000 subscribers after month 1, according to Nielsen. The newspaper industry are feigning delight with this, rubbing their hands. Will be interesting to see the Nielsen numbers after 6 and 12 months.

On this point, it annoys me how many d****eads (Colin w***** being a good example) have said they can like Liverpool again now Rafa has gone. Like we are meant to be all made up

[Keita]

It wasnt Tony Evans was it?

[Elm0]

So ignoring the misuse of figures, these clowns are using one example from all Rafa's seasons to prove that everything will be fine, despite Rafa doing a LOT better than Roy in all the rest of his seasons?

[psl]

Someone should send this to mediawatch on football365.

[smithdown]

Those who say they can now love Liverpool...I so f*ckin want Roy sacked and/or Rafa back so they get their eye wiped

No Caitlin Moran - hence 'her'

And in this comparison to be fair - Rafa at his absolute nadir was still monkeys better than Roy who thinks 'we can't play better than this'

Precisely, they didn't like Rafa because his Liverpool side was a threat.

 

They like Hodgson.

[Mike]

nah.

 

they don't like rafa because rafa didn't play the establishment game with the press.
