Roy and Mister Alex Sitting in a Tree

Right, they’re long-time friends, best of pals, etcetera and so forth. I suppose I can understand that, intellectually. But when the fans hate you and the owners have publicly talked about replacing you, is it really a good idea to have a public make-out session with the hated rival from down the road when you both find yourselves at the Wigan v. Newcastle match? Well, that’s exactly what Hodgson did today, approaching the United manager for a long and friendly chat that ended in the above embrace. I’d say that perhaps he knows he’s out the door before Wednesday’s game against Blackburn, but he was watching the match today with Comolli, ostensibly scouting potential January targets, which just takes us back to standard Hodgsonia: the unfailing ability to do or say the absolute dumbest thing possible at any given place and time. And seemingly never pay a price for it.

I think the pair watching on the right just about sums things up.

    Tweet « Rumours of Dalglish’s Imminent Return | Home | BoomSo first he starts criticising Liverpool fans for their support of him, then he sits there laughing and joking with Liverpool's enemy of a manager. Disgrace.Ed"Hodgsonia: the unfailing ability to do or say the absolute dumbest thing possible at any given place and time."

I'd say that deserves some recognition as the best way to define his tenure.Jay WrightFergie's congratulating him on a job well done, and Hodgson's just saying "yes boss, it's been hard but you were right to have faith in me being able to destroy them. You should hear their little whiny voices!! hahaha"

It's only old age that has caused them to forget to keep their alliance behind closed doors...JohnHe's a P.R. nightmare all he has to do next is talk to the Sun for his hat trick.BEVGSo who were they watching ? ?NoelNo idea, honestly, since the only two really worth watching from a Liverpool perspective in that match--Carroll and N'Zogbia--were both out today.WizdomWhile I'm sure this will appear to many as a simple photo of 2 old friends enjoying a game of football, to many LFC supporters SAF is the enemy, so to see him laughing and joking with a manager who has given you the worse start in 50 year and was never your first choice is hard to take, especially as we face them at Old Toilet in the next few weeks!
Win my rational mind there is nothing in this photo but as a fan it leaves me with bad tast in the mouth. One of the reason we loved Rafa was he hated Fergason and this will add to the reason we don't like Hodgson. This guy really knows how to win friends and influence the LFC supported (sic)!
