supporting our team through thick and thin....
It has taken a while to recover from Sunday’s game. Losing always is difficult, but losing to the Scousers is even harder. And Sunday’s game was one of those where nothing worked.
Let’s admit it: they ran faster, ran harder and wanted it more. And they had the support of top flight unexperienced referee Andre Marriner who blatantly helped the Dippers.
Last but not least… Ngog scored.
How to overcome all this?
Tomorrow is THE game and this year the trip to Anfield Road comes with two more bonus elements. First of all there is the question if the Anfield loyals will show Michael Owen the respect he deserves for his time at The Kop. The other factor is whether it will be the last game in charge for the Spanish waiter.
Rafa Benitez has lost 6 games out of 13 games played this season so far and I will be nice here but he actually is a good manager. A good manager with a bad attitude. A manager who seems to have lost passion.

After a rather quiet end of 2008-2009 season our favourite Spanish manager has kicked of the new season with a good old fashioned whine again.
For once though our manager surprisingly is not the victim of a Spanish tirade but Benitez publicly lamented the well documented Anfield Road credit crunch the astronomical sums offered for players in this transfer window.
“The market is now crazy. It is all money, money, money now”
“We had to pay big money. But we were signing a good player, an England player (Johnson), and that is very positive.”
Surprisingly the next swipe went out to The Council House and Real Madrid. [Read more…]
The hunting for the strikers right now for United is going as fast as they can.We are approaching almost any striker of our caliber to play with us.Initially Huntelaar was the man that United favored as striker.But as the time faded his signing almost is looking impossible. [Read more…]
