Yet we have committed to direct action against the owners, so why not against a manager who hasn't done sh*t for us?
The 'owners' did not care if they destroyed the club, the same can not be said for Hodgson. I'm far from impressed with his tactics so far and gutted to see us in the bottom three, but Hodgson is not willfully trying to wreck the club I love. For me, it's a question of intent. If a person walks up to me and punches me, I'm likely to be mightily pissed off; if somebody accidentally bumps into me and apologises, my reaction will be very different. To be honest, the idea of an email campaign against Hodgson is embarrassing. This club had a history of handling itself with decorum and class; the Hicks and Gilette era changed that, we were forced to act to save our club, and that was messy but necessary. Now is the time to restore our club as one that people respect and admire. Some tacky and disproportionate email campaign against the manager isn't the Liverpool way.
If Hodgson continues to fail, despite his best efforts, then I'm confident he will be sacked, and that may well be the best thing for us, but I will definitely not be part of some clumsy campaign against him.
