I said it 3 years ago when we signed him
Rodgers is a snake oil salesman
I think he'll keep his job only to be sacked by Christmas

Im keeping by fingers crossed that he gets the boot tomorrow. Simply cannot tolerate another season of mediocrity under this pretender. If FSG had any sense, they would have gotten rid by now.

Sounds possible. I'd wonder firstly why wait until then, either he is the right man or not? If it's because Klopp or whoever isn't available until then, I don't believe it. You'd make it happen.
Secondly, at what point is he sacked? If we are still in both cups (FA not started yet) and 4th/5th. Sack him? What if only 6 points of first but going through a poor run, sack him?
What about waiting until 12th 23 points of 3rd and out of Europa? Then?
You see my point, either he stays and if does better he continues, we miss calibre of Klopp etc or he isn't good enough we continue or decline and it's too late another season gone, Klopp not interested cause it's an even worse mess.
Keep him and live with it or just cut losses why keep until Xmas???

Would you buy a car off him ?

What I mean is, I think (actually I worry) that FSG will back him and then realise later that they've got it wrong

Chris, it's a fair worry. But what I'd say is, haven't they done this already? I'd suggest Rodgers was on the brink last November, we then put a run which allowed a pause a see what if. It continued, best records in some areas like defence for 50 yrs or something. But in the end we failed, no CL top 4 and loss of dressing room. Shocking results, talents wanting to leave. The signings never really turned it around either. Lallana prehaps? Can, maybe?
I'd say the now til Xmas you mention in your op, is in fact November 14 to summer 15. Rodgers has failed, FSG gave him a half season to turn it around already. They don't need to give him another half to see what's aleady there.

I agree they don't need to, so why no sacking yet?
I can only assume it's because he isn't getting sacked

The meeting is tmrw so calm down before your head explodes. They will make an announcement whent they see fit and not a moment earlier or later.
