I don't think boycotting the first 5 mins of the matches is the answer lads. Having everyone then try and rush in for games that have already started? Don't like the idea.

Why not boycott a full match. Just stay away completely for 1 weekend. That'd be more of a statement i think.

I agree with the first point you make to be honest about the big rush. I will have an extra pint at 2:50 in the club bar then walk round and have a quick smoke before taking my standing place.
I completely understand the sentiment and angle you are coming from and at clubs like Leeds where attendances are high it could become a dangerous situation.

Thankfully at Aldershot we'll struggle to get 3000 in so can't see there being (A) to many people out front and (B) a huge rush. Although I do get where your coming from

Nope, you're wrong I'm afraid, everyone knows that you have to take every statistic you ever hear as fact at face value. No one cares about the rational explainations behind them

Nah I'm just playing, my mate (a Liverpool fan btw) told me that stat, and it just surprised me

Unfortunately, the ironic thing is I guarentee he'll be snapped up be a Premier League club within the next 2 years

Pheonix - If he is snapped up within the next 2 years then Palace are entitled to compensation and will receive some form of payment (not always justified as they have found out in the past with Bostock for instance) . The problem runs deeper then players being snapped up.

Is that the lad Zaha?

I believe it is GnP

Record/Current record as Liverpool manager:
Roy Hodgson ... P31 W13 D9 L9 Spent ... £22m
Kenny Dalglish ... P32 W15 D8 L9 Spent ... £114m

What a ridiculous and idiotic comparison to make!!! I'm sure it's meant as a joke

Firstly, on that 114 million you say Dalglish spent...£60 million or so of that was spent this summer after he had been in charge for around 23 games so that fucks that point.

Secondly, out of Roys 13 wins and 9 draws....6 of the wins and 4 of the draws were in qualifying or in the group stage of the Europa League against such giants as Steaua Bucharest, Trabzonspor, Rabotnicki and Utrecht!! He also had defeats at home to Northampton, Wolves and Blackpool.

To compare their records in charge on the basis you have is pathetic really!!

Here's a more accurate comparison...

Roy had 20 league games in charge last season so for Kenny's first 20 league games as manager the records stand as....

Roy P20 W7 D4 L9 GS24 GA27 GD-3 25pts
K.K P20 W11 D4 L5 GS38 GA18 GD+20 35pts

In the League Cup under Roy we were knocked out at home to Northampton in the first round we entered the competition. Under KK this season we have advanced to the QF draw with 3 away victories and are in the hat for tomorrows draw.

European records cant be compared as we arent in Europe this season mainly due to the first half of last seasons league campaign when Roy was in charge.

Roy spent £22 million you say?? Well that was spent on players like Paul Konchesky, Cristian Poulsen and Brad Jones.

In the money Dalglish has spent he has brought in players like Luis Suarez, Stewart Downing and Jose Enrique to name a few. And £50 million of what he spent was a kind gift from Russia via West London

Basically what i'm saying is there is no comparison really!!!!

But how do their records stand up to those of either Bill Shankly or
Bob Paisley?

ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!

Worst Penalty Decision this season

Comes to something when im feeling sorry for steve kean all though why change the lineup when we were 3-1 up

Last week it was AVB & Chelsea;- today it's the turn of Harry Redknapp and the Cockerels of North London.

You have been warned;- Warnock's Warriors are on a roll and looking for their next scalp!!
