Did I hear him say at the weekend that he had lost his job hosting hospitality suites because of being critical of Houllier last year?

Liverpool revived their bid for a Champions League spot with a convincing victory over Portsmouth. A stunning volley from Dietmar Hamann and two goals from Michael Owen lifted the Reds into fifth place, a point adrift of Charlton.
Owen tucked away his first from six yards before sealing a welcome return to form with a second-half header.
Emile Heskey might have made it four late on when he headed against a post, while Portsmouth offered little.
Defeat left Portsmouth in the bottom three, still two points adrift of safety.

But have Liverpool now turned another corner?
And has Merseyside sent Portsmouth down?

I read today someone espousing Heskey for Centre back - this smacks of twisted genius

Chris, I wouldn't say losing 4-0 at home to Villa constitutes form for Wolves.

Are you positing yourself, or me, as the middle-class know-nothing?
I am middle-class but re. football I know something more than nothing.

Arsenal vs Liverpool
Everton vs Tottenham
TWO BIG MATCHES
CAN HOULLIER'S MEN STOP GUNNERS IN THEIR... TRACKSUITS?

Can someone tell me what's happened to the Southampton-Newcastle fixture? Bobby R made some reference to that now being NUFC's last game of the season, but surely there can't be games beyond 15/5?

Yes, but even the defeat vs Marseille was a reasonable performance until the bizarro red-card-penalty incident. Better than the home leg, I thought. I thought the 3-0 vs Pompey and 4-0 vs Blackburn were universally acclaimed in a way few winning L'pool performances have been this season. Or maybe that was just the media pendulum swinging back from the Houll Crisis position.

Maybe the long spell of patience should have been kept for Roy, I don't know. GH has to go this summer anyway, regardless of the position the team finishes in.

Oh, my heart skips at the notion of "joint manager".
Liverpool under Evanshoullier, Aug-Nov 1998:
P13, W4, D4, L5 - 12th in Prem, out of league cup at home to Spurs.

UEFA - won against 9-men Spanish team through own goal in extra-time; Spanish team have never been heard of since.
FA Cup - should have been about 4-0 down then two goals with two attacks in the last 10 mins
League Cup - Beat a 1st Division side on penalties
