good way to purge the season ticket waiting list at anfield that. there'd be outright revolution.

That'll never happen. Seems like Rodgers was a gonna almost regardless as FSG seemed to have timed this with the international break, giving them a couple of weeks before you play Spurs.

it also sounds like we've already made the new appointment and everything else is dotting is and crossing ts.

Yes, its been quite obvious for a while that change was needed. Its also quite possible that Rodgers' huge ego meant he didn't see it coming.

I might sound cynical here but i also feel Henry and Werner understand the need to keep the fans happy whilst they continue to milk the global merchandise revenues.

i think you make too much play of his ego carmine. he was told yesterday morning that he would be sacked after the everton match. got a 1-1 there, remains unbeaten in his merseyside derbies, then after the game knowing he was about to be publicly humiliated spent over half an hour with young fans at the ground, doing photos and talking to them. so he very much knew it was coming. he isn't a bad man, he's just inexperienced and sadly wasn't up to the job. but as a liverpool fan i thank him for season 13/14 which i think is about as fun a season as i can remember in my lifetime.

informed sources seem to reckon klopp is nailed on. i remain doubtful until it happens as i simply don't trust these owners.

It's about time he did then, especially with this shower.

My spidey senses tell me McClaren will not survive a defeat today.

But he may not have to!

Or maybe he will.

Or maybe he won't. Quite a game already.

Five goals in 20 minutes.... bloody hell.

You'd have to think the thin ice under Sherwood is about to shatter after Swansea comes back to nab three points away.

Yes he wasn't to happy in the post match interview,his words were full of sarcasm.

Well now he's on the swiss roll.

Officially sacked.

Tim Sherwood sacked as Aston Villa boss. Kevin MacDonald takes over on interim basis, Tony Parks only member of coaching staff staying #avfc

David Moyes is being touted as Sherwood's replacement.

I'd give it a miss if I were him!

Remi Garde is the early favourite for the Villa job.

andy gray on the villa vacancy: "remi garde makes no sense. now is not the time to take a gamble. i'd go for dwight yorke".

WT*?!

Everything that slimeball says is purely for effect. No sincere bone in his body.

Or he knows he'll get free hospitality at Villa Park if Yorke gets the job,

I'd hope the prawn sandwiches were better than the football.

It's Garde for Villa. The new Wenger? No shocks this weekend....so Villa to win tonight at Spurs?!?!

QPR sack Chris Ramsey.

Warnock is temp manager. Tim Sherwood for perm?

I think McLaren just passed the baton to Eddie Howe.

How Newcastle nicked those three points I have no idea.

Gary Monk gone according to Twitter.....Job for Brenda?

Nothing on their website.

^ Bit strange as was building up a head of steam on a number of sites yesterday....Maybe the internet is slow in Wales

Swansea's chairman is collecting his MBE in London and will sack Monk afterwards, according to the BBC. Brendan will be the replacement. Seems to be a trend: Clough Jr is back at Burton.
