Good news. Utterly pointless appointment in the first place.
Although I suspect there is an element of scapegoating (or trying to divert the blame) going on here.

Good point Del.
You don't want us to lose this weekend, remember? 🙂
He's going to make us into a contender and you'll lose your "I'm right about everything, bar Hayden Mullins" tag.
Btw, based on Comolli's statement, it seems like personal issues were the problem, not professional.

very strange timing indeed , why would they not wait until the summer ?
I see what you did there ...
I wonder who was the 'main' figure behind all our signings this summer. Adam was defo Daglish's ... Henderson? Carroll? Downing?
Has Kenny had his reported 'chat' with the owners yet? Perhaps he cited Comolli as one of the reason's for this season's failures? The timing is more than a little suspicious.
I think that answers who bought carroll 😉
Well in fairness, if Kenny was sacked before Comolli there would be uproar from the fans. The scapegoating suggestion seems very plausible!
you post stuff like this wind people up
this couldn't have waited till after the weekend? JEEZ!!
I don't think that follows. It's very easy to get rid of Comolli, who has fuck all to do with the team on a day-to-day basis. They were hardly going to sack Kenny days before the FA Cup semi-final. If Kenny is sacked, it would be at the end of the season, so this means relatively little in the grand scheme of things.
The only thing that would indicate Kenny has bought a stay of execution is if they sacked Comolli on his advice, which we'll probably never know.
Two trains of though:
- It comes down to who made the signings that everyone, including Kenny behind closed doors, is saying are probably too poor to be 'first team regulars' at Anfield (at least short term - Carroll & Henderson may be ok in the future). It seems, going by this, it was Comolli.
- Someone has to take the fall for the season. Kenny is too popular to can him after one season. This is a warning that next season, he's gone too if it doesn't improve.

the league is over in a few weeks, the time to start making contacts with players is now (even though it's illegal) the timing is about right but you'd have thought that would have waited till after the weekend.
Weren't we chasing Adam throughout January, even before Kenny was made manager.
Same thing for both Suarez and Carroll.
I would have though both Henderson and Downing were Kenny's choices.
is he? if kenny were sacked how much uproar would there be, 'really'?
Of course it follows. The timing of it before the FA Cup Final means the press will be focusing on the players and how they've failed. If anything it's putting pressure on them to perform and takes the focus off Kenny.
is that a good thing?
