Anyone ever fancied playing for Liverpool?

Deal me in

You don't go to football matches any more since you discovered gurls ;)

Revive!

(seriously, is no-one intrigued by this?)

Fucking AFC Wimbledon Took our manager and three of our players, I hate Liverpool as well so count me out. Big Up Hendon FC

Hehe. If Hendon had accepted their promotion, they might not have lost their manager in the first place. Their manager who left you before our job became available, that is.

Sorry about the players, though. Seems to be a fact of life when a manager moves. You're still doing well though (100% record this season?) and if we both win our first round matches, we'll meet in the FA Trophy...

Just watched them. These new players look like they have talent, but they weren't playing as a team today at all - maybe bringing them in before they have learnt to play with the rest, and pushing out to the flank the man who has been the driving heart of the team and easily their best player was a foolish move?

Do Bolton have a better chance of success this season than Liverpool? Why, when we claim that there aren't any great English candidates for the national job, does Sam Allardyce not get seriously discussed? He's turned a second tier side into a top-half Premiership side without spending lots in transfer fees, and they seem to be improving every season. I'm not saying that this correlates closely with the demands of international management (though he has picked a diverse bunch of players who don't know each other and turned them into a successful team, which correlates pretty well), but when was the last English manager who made such a huge and continuing improvement to a club on such small spending?

A Cissy for 14 Million - what a joke !

There may be a couple of you who are interested - I went along to this today, and it was your archetypal (organised) fun day out.

The Liverpool line-up literally drew gasps from the crowd. Whelan, Kennedy, Wark, McMahon, Aldridge, Case, Fairclough etc. etc., but it was Wimbledon who dominated the first half. The second half was the cream, though - Liverpool came into their own and, despite going a goal behind, managed to earn a penalty (rather better deserved than Clive Goodyear's clean and successful back pass in 1988). Obviously, only one man could take it, and John Aldridge showed a shocking lack of respect for history by slotting it past Dickie Guy for the equaliser.

Dickie Guy, though, was the best thing about the game for the majority of Dons fans. He's the club's president, the "nicest man in the world", and a legend from the days when we were just a small upstart club beginning to climb the leagues. He's 55 now, but my god, he's a good keeper. He pulled off save after stunnign save - you really wouldn't have believed you were watching a man who could be grandfather to several of our first team squad.

2,918 people came to Kingsmeadow and the atmosphere was absolutely the opposite of what some people got to see when they came to a match last season. Fucking brilliant fromstart to finish.

Further details of who played for the reds, taken from this Liverpool site:

"Liverpool lined up at the start with Bob Boulder in goal, Alan Kennedy, John Wark, Dave Watson and Gary Gillespie forming the back four, Michael Thomas, Steve McMahon, Nigel Spackman and Jimmy Case making up the midfield, and John Aldridge with Mark Walters up front. Now that's some team. On the bench were Ronnie Whelan, Paul Walsh, Davey Fairclough and some bloke who’d won an e-bay auction to take part"
