tdmickey3 Posted 6 February, 2023 Share Posted 6 February, 2023 Do you realise that we are seen as an absolute embarrassment of a club in the wide football world due to you employing Jones in the first place but more so now with your refusal to sack the man who is so out obviously out of his depth 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sfcphilc Posted 6 February, 2023 Share Posted 6 February, 2023 Someone needs to video or at very least get a voice recording at the forum tomorrow. As people have said, the club edit the final version to put a positive spin on it. I'm very surprised it's not been cancelled. Unless you'll arrive and there's an announcement saying Rasmus couldn't make it due to illness or something and leave Semmens to take all the flack while grinning away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitzhugh Fella Posted 7 February, 2023 Share Posted 7 February, 2023 Rupert reading the letter and Chorley throwing the coins was actually an AGM.

And if it is a PR bullshit fest, then we know exactly the situation at the club. I think we're over the line of just turning up and sitting and listening tbh... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodsaint1 Posted 7 February, 2023 Share Posted 7 February, 2023 Can see Ankersen or Semmen's prepared lines already. They'll probably throw this out at the start and then ask that there's no further questions on the matter. "We're disappointed in Nathan's post match comments, however we remain committed to Nathan as first team manager and confident that he can improve the team during the second half of the season."

I hope if that is the case that nobody asks any further questions. Let's be honest, this is the sole issue that *needs* to be discussed. What else matters at the moment? This isn't reactionary to a few poor results, this is about a guy who clearly isn't cut out for the job, this is about Ankerson and co playing a game with the clubs future in the balance. Fan centres, additional hospitality offerings and gourmet burgers mean nothing. Don't let them PR their way out of it. Keep at it. They have to know this isn't something we'll 'get over' - we're fuming that we've been taken for mugs. They can't roll out the nonsense that we can't keep up with competitors such as Villa and Wolves who hired proper managers. We were the second biggest spenders in Jan - the whole thing is so lopsided. I'd rather we'd have spent less and hired a competent manager, someone who can inspire some confidence and positivity into the group. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted 7 February, 2023 Share Posted 7 February, 2023 Here’s a question. Before the season we needed 1 x £40m striker to be good enough to avoid the drop. You’ve spent over £100m and we’re bottom of the league. How has that happened? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing for Liverpool as a new signing replacing Mane is a massive ask and way more pressure. He's missed the step when he got used to the league, and he's doing that for a top side. He's not ready to make that step up yet IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
