I would just like to point out that Brendan Rodgers was at the memorial at Anfield yesterday. No matter what you think about the man, this shows his class. YNWA BR.

Completely agree. We are quick, myself included, to get on the guys back, but I'm sure he could have easily done something else but instead had the class to come back to show his support.

JFT96! YNWA.

Of course he was there being a ex manager and all. Whatever about his time as manager and I'm not one of his biggest fans he absolutely respects the club and everyone associated with it especially the fans.

Attending a memorial service doesent represent someone's true feelings. Do you think snubbing an invite to the service would be a good move on Brendan's behalf from a PR perspective? I have no way of knowing Brendan's sentiments on all things LFC but he turned up and for that he deserves our respect.

this is embarrassing. how exactly would we have known if he had snubbed the invite? (if he has been invited that is) . he could have easily decided to not attend especially given the amount of abuse he received recently. i'm 100% sure it hurt him to sit with players he signed especially after thursday, but he swallowed his pride and showed support. show some respect.

{Ed002's Note - Yet again the Liverpool fans have degraded in to complete disrespect for someone who worked hard at the club and is himself being humble and honorable. Simply awful yet again.}

He came to the memorial. So what? Do you want a cookie? We criticize his managerial and coaching acumen, all of which have been deemed to be rank incompetent. Don't really care what he does off the pitch nor his principles as a human being because I'm not allowed to judge him on those fronts. If you wanna respect him, have at it. As for me, don't really care if he came or not and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

{Ed002's Note - This is why anyone going to work for Liverpool as a player or in other role should think twice. The clearly second rate fan base that lacks respect for everything to do with the club. If Mr Rodgers sees this I am sure he will be disappointed. I feel sorry for the likes of him and Mr Dalglish. And I feel sorry for those whose lives were disrupted by that fateful day. I really don't think the fans should be embarrassing the club nor the city in a way you are suggesting.}

Regardless of how Rodgers time at the club ended, he attended to support the families and pay respect to those that lost their lives. Personally I think that shows a man of decency and honour. I honestly don't see why people are criticising him for this? He was part of the club for three years and yes it didn't work out, but that's got nothing to do with his wish to show respect and it shouldn't come into it.

I have to agree with ed02! Everyone who comes to the club manager or players come with the best of intentions and want to do their upmost best for the club. Sadly it didn't work out for them but they tried their best. No one comes to the club and plan to fail. Everybody who has been involved with the club is a part of our history and we should respect them for that. As we are a part of theirs. hence why they still show it and so should we!

Redohio has zero class, always very negative and belittling in his posts. Most likely never kicked a football in his life.

Why would you feel sorry for Rogers Eds 002? He was unfaithful to his wife and made her look silly in the eyes of the world. Surely your sympathies should be Chantelle's elsewhere? The man has no integrity and he has proved it on many occasions. Don't wedding vows mean anything?

{Ed002's Note - I am not sure how you think his wife comes in to this. I was sorry for Rodgers for the efforts he has made in respect of the folks who went to a game and were unable to return. Many of the Liverpool fans, if not near all I would have expected to have been supportive. Clearly we have one who isn't at all supportive of his efforts in respect of Hillsborough and now one who wants to take the route of making it about someone else - his wife. Like it or not, I find it truly pitiful that some Liverpool fans act this way.}

No matter who you are or what relativity you have to the club if you turn up to pay your respects and show support to the families you have right to have our respect. YNWA JFT96.

The man has no integrity Eds 002. He turned up to the Hillsborough memorial it's the least that's expected of him being an ex manager. I for one aren't going to fawn over him because attended. I appreciate your opinions Eds 002 and don't always agree with them but I'm always respectful of you. I'd request you show me the same courtesy without the vitriol please.

{Ed002's Note - I absolutely cannot do that over this.}

Guys, seriously? Sure, we were all frustrated during the last year or so of his tenure, however I've never personally believed that he was trying to damage the club intentionally, which is pretty much what he would have had to have done to warrant this degree of hate. I simply think he wasn't the right man, and I wish him well. The point is Brendan turned up and showed support for the families, like we should all be doing, instead of seeing sinister twists in what was an ultimately statement of support! JFT96.

Excuse me but give Ed 002 a break. Sometimes football becomes more than just a game and this time he has shown he does honour the club. Be human and let's appreciate he showed up. Come out of your stupid logic guys.

Agree with Fornax over this, Brendan wound me up as much as anyone but I'm sure it was never his intention to make a mess of things at the end (also let's no forget 13/ 14) and he's a human being come to pay his respects.

Why anyone is even debating whether that's a good thing or his motives (which we can't possibly know an have no reason to question) is frankly embarrassing.

So Friday is about Rodgers is it?
So much irony that we are there to remember those 96 and part of the you'll never walk alone is in remberance to them but yet we're come on here and abuse a ex manager.

{Ed001's Note - I don't get the conversation at all. He went along to pay his respects, thank you to him and that should be it. Why does he deserve any stick for that?}

Some people just hate for no reason. The guy just can't win. He tried his best at the club but couldn't take us any further. Then comes back to pay his respects and still gets abuse. Get over it, and grow up.

BR showed respect and we should reciprocate. He failed as a manager, it happens. We moved on, why the hate.
