The sight of a three-quarter full Kop of schoolchildren on those Europa League Group Stage nights is something to behold...

I'm just glad we're back in it this season, might get a nice trip or two out of it.

Well they speak a foreign language and I probably need my jabs before going there, so it's kind of like a trip abroad...

Is keeping Wigan in the premiership as hard as getting Liverpool a top 4 spot?

I'd say yes.

Its as much of an achievement.
The difference between the two jobs is the Liverpool manager is expected to win every game. It is different pressure being at the bottom than the top. Martinez was not expected to win even a third of the games at Wigan.
Do not trust atoms. They make up everything.

Looks like Rodgers. Could be too much too soon for him?

He's not expected to win every game, just enough for the chumps league.

And I think the pressure to stay up is probably harder to handle when you're managing lesser players with smaller budgets....

Anyway, looks like its Rodgers....

If we weren't relegated this season I wouldn't have been surprised with Swansea wanted Coyle, all that 'young player and good passing football'

I'm rather hoping they're the sort of ambitious Premier League Club that might still be interested...

I would have tipped Swansea to be fecked next year WITH Rodgers as manager.

Seen it so many times.. newly promoted team has a great first season, manager gets tipped for the Brazil job.. then they get found out and drop like a stone.

Well done Liverpool on another shocking managerial appointment :laugh:
