  • Dalglish was summoned to Boston for a meeting with the club's owners, FSG, on Wednesday and was said to have been left in limbo after clarification over his future was not forthcoming........
    Must admit that Dalglish after a decent start, seemed to be struggling. He also made a hash of the Suarez affair, and he can have a churlish manner with the media, appearing arrogant. But if compare him to Mourinho, no contest there.
    Have not got a clue who they will get in there, this was discussed on Talk sport yesterday, and they drew a blank as well......
  • David Moyes?

    Sad day for someone that loved Kenny the player and even the manager as was, but like a boxer he took one fight too many. He forgot that Liverpool were a middling football club and treated others with contempt and arrogance that the clubs position and results doid not warrant. The power base for the americans is building the brand in America and they don't like losers or surrly (sp?) uncooperative faces of the business. Sorry Kenny but you had to go.

    PS Poignant twitter comment

    Billo on Twitter: "Ironic Dalglish departs Liverpool on the same day Hodgson announces his first England squad. What a difference a year makes."

  • He was crap, wasn't he?
  • Surprised he has been sacked.

    I expected him to walk away but maybe the owners are less in thrall to the King Kenny Legend than others.
    I think the sponsors nearly pulling out due to the Saurez thing supersedes any legendary status.
  • Now King Kenny has abdicated will we get another day off in June?
  • No real surprise, tactically inept, media unfriendly and his English is worse than Capello's

  • Great news. Hopefully I won't have to see his sour face again.
  • I fear we are in for 'A whole Lotta Kenny' punditry on Sky Sports next season.

    I doubt it. His face could curdle milk from a distance of 50 yards.

    But you know what it's like .. for some unaccountable reason the meedja love him, he's a ledjend.. and he's a good pal of Graeme Sourpuss.
  • Or try to make out what he's saying, his accent was getting worse with age, I think.
  • Can't say I'm sorry. Great player yes but came over as a bit of a bumbling idiot lately. And the whole Suarez affair capped it all.

    He had to go but there's not much job security in football management is there?
    Here's the longevity list from the 92 league clubs:
    Jobs vacant: 7
    Under 3 months: 12
    Over 3 mths: 10
    Over 6 mths: 18
    Over 1 yr: 21
    Over 2 yrs: 12
    Over 3 yrs: 4
    Over 4 yrs: 1
    Over 5 yrs: 4
    Over 10 yrs: 1
    Over 15 yrs: 1
    Over 20 yrs: 0
    Over 25 yrs: 1

    SCP is currently 40th in the list having been employed for 1 year 120 days.
  • I see BBC Sport have now taken down the article by Mark Lawrenson about how he was sure that Dalglish would continue as manager of Liverpool FC! Protect the pundit and his ability to be right abut everything.
  • ^^^^^ and still there are scores, if not hundreds of applicants for virtually any job that comes up

    Liverpools owners have asked Kenny Dalglish to put himself in the fan's shoes he did so now he's unemployed!!!
  • So we now have four clubs in the prem searching for a new manager, at the same time.

    That's got to be so sort of record? (one for the statto's)
  • He had it coming, yet the worst players from his failing squad have been picked for England.

    Very good lol
  • Will there be loads of managers wthout contracts trying to push their way into his office?
  • "Liverpool Will be brave"

    Liverpool are ready to be brave when appointing a replacement for Kenny Dalglish. An inside source at Anfield says the club are willing to make a very brave choice, saying that "Fans need to be patient and understand that the next manager will be here for the long-term and will have to look at the bigger picture". He also said the next manager WILL be a Englishman.

    We believe that he is former Liverpool youth coach and current MK Dons manager Karl Robinson. The club have refused to comment at this moment.



    Jesus..................
  • Minutes silence for Kenny

    No surprise really. Finished the season with the lowest amount of goals scored in a season since 1906......and then Andy Carroll gets picked for England! Result. And what happened to Dirk Kuyt? One of their best players getting splinters warming up the bench.

    He spunked upwards of £100 million on crap - what does he expect
    Unintelligible misery
  • There was a guy who was just on 5live (not sure who, sorry), who ended his call/interview by bemoaning the fact that Liverpool couldn't compete with the top 4, who all spent big money. Such an amazing thing to say when referencing Liverpool this season, particularly as they finished below Everton and Newcastle!

  • Lineker on Twitter:

    Do feel for Kenny Dalglish. Absolutely loves that club. Unreasonable expectations in such a short time. How long will the next fella get?

    Dunno Gary, maybe a bit longer than Hodgson had as an example.
