Yeah, I mean, it's a bit of a chicken and egg thing, isn't it?
Because the players need to perform for the crowd to come up and the crowd needs to be on for the players to feel up to it.
And this is probably why Liverpool as a club come to the decision that this sort of can't carry on.
We can't go into next season.
There might have been some...
cases you could have made to keep Arna slot and there was definitely some cases to change it but I think the way I was I actually had a little bit more credit in the bank with me than some other people and I was a little bit if you would have said to me he's the manager next year I'd have been there on the opening day behind and put it that way but what sort of tipped me over the edge was not not what I think about in the mind it was what my mates are saying and what what the fellas are next to me is saying and the fella behind me moaning every single week and you're like
This can't go on.
This can't carry on, yeah.

Everyone believed in the players.
Special things happen.
So you're not going to have special things happen if you're coming into a season where over...

And the good thing about this is everyone is excited, everyone is now behind the manager.
Me personally, when we were looking at it, I was a little bit nervous, as you wouldn't think now.
