Steve Clarke and Damien Comolli are a break from the past.

They are, and whether its a good move we will find out over time.....The Dalglish appointment though just smells of pandering to the Kop, rather than any sensible forward thinking.

I wonder if over time, if Kenny is appointed full time, whether he'll put up with 'outsiders' like Clarke, Comolli and any others arriving in important roles at the club?..

Good sensible thinking.....However, can you really see Dalglish being ousted if he was to turn Liverpool around, with a decent run in Europe and a half decent finish in the league?

There would be uproar if Dalglish then went and it would take a brave owner to pull that one off without some type of fall out.

The point of that article was: they won't succumb to fan pressure as they want to continue their vision.

If Kenny had a massively successful season, they would only replace him with somebody they collectively believe is better. Our fans will love Kenny regardless of how he does, but I feel the owners have made Kenny stress that he's not a long-term appointment. People will hope, but, if he left and a big up-and-comer came in, I think the supporters would take it quite well, particularly as I believe Kenny would leave with class and give the next manager his blessing.

Although sometimes you can get the result with 10 men but we weren't playing Everton.

that was shit. Well you had 11 in November and got your ar$ed kicked.

Completely one sided

Hardly a shock playing with 10 men for best part of 60 mins.

Exactly, that's not in debate. I just don't why so many Liverpool fans are making it out to be such an improved performance, you were never in the game. I wonder if you'd have played like that under Hodgson what the reaction would've been like. I've even heard people say it was your best performance this season, surely a 3-0 win over Chelsea must've been.

Why not try to debate rather than simply play childish games?.....It might seem unlikely, but some of us can discuss some things in an adult manner rather than resorting to playground name-calling.

That's the problem mate, there's very few Liverpool fans you can have a decent debate with about Liverpool cos they'll just throw up shit lines about Everton or they'll just say you're bitter.

Balague will add his view as a knee-jerk, I'm sure if he was to write an article in a few weeks, he'd realize it's the owners in control, it's their view and structure that will remain and the appointment of Dalglish was a happy coincidence more than succumbing to fan power.
