No Whether you agree with the original poster or not, some of the abuse directed towards Kev has been well over the top, some of his posts may have been annoying to say the least but he is a Liverpool fan and entitled to an opinion however misguided you may think they are. Its an extremely frustrating time at the moment and its a horrible run but I am hopeful that Rafa will change it round, especially when players have recovered from injury and are actually match fit not just injury free.

You and NWR are both tedious Manc t**ts

Quite possibly but whats that got to do with anything? For your info I think Rafa is a better manager than him. Your contributions are getting more and more bizarre.

You would, you're a manc t**t.

You do talk some b******s, the point I raised was because of your continual moaning about all things Rafa, it had f all to do with a comment about there being 7 at the back.

I haven't really thought about it as I think he is the man for the job. Plus with those two idiots in charge, its bound to be somebody we will be disappointed in.

Funnily enough I dont read every single one of your posts, but the ones I have read are full of criticism and hinting that you don't think he is up to the job, but I'm glad you don't want him sacked. It makes me laugh that if somebody defends rafa or isn't constantly moaning about him, they are made out to be blinkered or a pillock etc but hey if they disagree with you they must be wrong . I dont happen to think he is the 2nd coming but I do think he is a very good manager, who like other managers will make mistakes but I still wouldn't have any other manager.

Oh, is this another example of your brilliant wit?

Perhaps you should ask him, rather than me.

All you do is moan about everything he does, its so clear you don't rate him but for some reason you don't like when I have the audacity to mention the fact you should possibly start a thread about replacing him. But hey apparently its me who lacks a pair.....

What part of my post are you questioning?

Dont be stupid and actually try and make a reasoned argument, rather than just moan on. How about starting the thread you really want too?

Who the f*** cares, its football we are talking about not Rugby or Tennis.

Ha ha do you really shouldn't enter a debate you clearly dont understand, I wasn't on about two teams in the same game you complete plank.

Yes and clearly they don't want to risk him for even an hour at the moment, otherwise they would have done. I hope he is fit enough to start on Tuesday as I am looking forward to him playing.

I dont know, I'm don't follow rugby that closely and I don't really care that much about how far down the video referrals go to, as we are talking about football not rugby. I just don't like what this would do to football.

When Yossi came off yesterday then it was obviously going to be Aurelio or Riera, it is frustrating we haven't seen more of him but I could see why Rafa made the substitution he did. As for starting Aquilani and playing him until he is tired is risky because a player coming back from a long term injury is more likely to pick up a niggle when they arer tired, far better to bring him on for 20-30 minutes at the moment to avoid that risk. I agree there have been opportunities to have done that so far but given what happened early in the game injury wise,yesterday wasn't one of those.

So you, as an advocate of video technology have no qualms about two teams in the same competition having different levels of technology etc? Because I for one think it stinks as it opens the gulf between the have and have nots. Perhaps its me, perhaps I'm out of touch in liking the fact there is controversy and passion in the game, Fifa are bad enough at trying to change the rules to make the game more sterile, let alone actual fans suggesting it.

I didn't mention Tennis, its a ridiculous comparison. I have already covered the areas where I believe there would be problems, I'm not sure what other details you want. I wasn't on about grass roots level, but the lower league teams who are struggling financially. Although the more I think about this it makes me realise this would have to go lower down than that, in fact to any team entering the FA cup, the reason being you would have to the same rules and technology open to all entrants in a particular competition. Otherwise it makes the gulf bigger and bigger. You should have stopped reading the article as soon as you saw that, it is an absolutely ridiculous idea, almost makes Sepp Blatter seem a rational thinker.

It should have bog all to do with money but whats best for the game and stop starting a game isn't the way forward. If you want to talk about money, how are the lower leagues going to afford the equipment, as alot of them are on the financial precipice or is it only for those who can afford it? Video technology will not be the saviour of the game some seem to believe, in fact I believe it will further damage the game, if you want appeals, vieo technology etc go and watch another sport.

I totally disagree with this idea, it would slow the game up and as has already been said video evidence can be inconclusive and just puts more pressure on the officials.

I hope they don't, this type of thing has always happened and it is part and parcel of the game. Football is a passionate game and part of that is talking/ranting about bad decisions etc, the game has been tampered with enough over the past few years with the tackle being virtually outlawed and cards given out far to freely. All to enhance the 'beautiful game', it has made the game more sterile, adding video technology would just been another act of taking the passion out of it. In addition to this, we have seen in other sports that video technology doesn't always give a conclusive answer, I say leave it to the officials, they will make mistakes but hey so do footballers who are paid a hell of a lot more, it all adds to what makes football such a fantastic game.

Anyway has Phil Brown been sacked yet?? To be honest I think its a bit harsh if they do as he has got them punching above their weight by getting them in the premiership and keeping them there.

Yes it was a clear handball , but no way was it part of a conspiracy, it amuses me that as soon as things like this happen some fans try and play the conspiracy card, unfortunately we can be guilty of it at times as well. This kind of incident has been going on for years and will do so for years to come, its part and parcel of football.
