Anyone who thinks Roy should stay has nothing but malice in their heart for Liverpool FC

Steven Kelly
IT’S not unusual to hear a Liverpool manager being told to **** off by thousands of people.
It’s a bit odd when they’ve got Liver birds on their chest. Every time you think there is nowhere left to sink you get a game like Blackburn and you realise there is a lot worse to come.
The players have decided he’s gone; another sitter from Torres and even a penalty miss from Gerrard. Minimum work-rate from the wind-up toy Kuyt, sleepwalking from Johnson (which must make the twentieth game in a row now) and Konchesky wondering if he should put an opposition shirt on and have done with it.
The rest were merely appalling. It’s not that people think the new owners want to keep Hodgson — everyone knows they don’t — but they’re just agonising about why action isn’t being taken.
Who spends 300m on something just to watch it sink into quicksand? Eight away defeats already strongly suggests that Liverpool have 10 games to rescue their season, because it will only be the points garnered at Anfield that will save them now.
If they want Roy to take the blame and national disgrace for Sunday’s humiliation (no one thinks it will be anything else) and give Kenny the clean slate after that, fair enough. It’s a touch cowardly, but it makes a bit of sense.
It is a disgrace what’s being tweeted, shouted and chanted. What other response but revulsion is possible when someone wishes ‘a Jock Stein’ on him? But the media can’t hide behind such loons any longer. Any other of the major clubs going through this and they’d be issuing free effigies and matches with every paper.
Anyone who thinks Roy should stay has nothing but malice in their heart for Liverpool FC — and it WILL be remembered.
