Since this thread seems to have diverted to Roy, I thought I'd post this here: Mr Henry and Mr Werner - Please Listen to the Fans and Sack Roy Hodgson Petition I've only read the first couple of lines before realising it was really long, so will read the rest later after work. But one thing I...

The stats show Rafa has had success and has had more success than Hodgson. Stats don't tell the whole story. Success can come from the failures of others, or illness (remember Spurs losing fourth place after 10 of their squad, including top scorer, were wiped out by food poisoning? stats show...

I got that. My incredulity is that by accepting Wikipedia as unreliable, and position the bible as the opposite, you are saying the bible is a completely reliable source of facts. You were arguing on Aldo's behalf. Forgive me for confusing you arguing/explaining/defending/whatever the quote...

So that's what you're saying? You wanted me to finid evidence that contradicted wikipedia. That makes a little more sense, thank you. But I point back to my not caring enough.

It really is. You linked a wikipedia page, and I highlighted how unreliable wikipedia is. You then challenged me to ?look at his record without titles? That is hard to understand, especially when you're now saying that "look at his record without thos titles" = "He's won multiple trophies and...

You were showing me a wikipedia page. My point being wikipedia can be edited by anyone.

Oh my god. So, instead of pointing to Wikipedia as a bastion of truth, you point to the bible? Seriously? And that doesn't really explain your post. "Feel free to find his record without those trophies." You want me to work out what his record is without trophies? That doesn't make any sense...

Please, show me where I have 'slated the man'.

Huh?

I don't know, because it's wikipedia, and for all I know some 12 year old kid is having a laugh.

You're going to criticise an award winning sports journalist who is held in high esteem by his peers, and then point to wikipedia?

My point is that the bulk of those players were bought by Houllier. You can look at it as Benitez taking a fourth placed team to win the champions league, or you can look at it as Benitez's biggest success coming before he had changed the make up of the squad with his own transfers. Your choice...

Don't forget to thank Houllier, who formed the bulk of the squad that won that title.

There would also be a problem in if the owners want to give the money to someone they might be firing in the summer.

They don't have a history of throwing money at their teams, preferring developing their own players, or so it was said back when they were trying to take over.
