Liverpool: Fans reflect on ‘horrific’ times as Roy Hodgson was sacked 9 years ago

Liverpool fans have been looking back on previous eras of the football as Wednesday marked nine years to the day that former manager Roy Hodgson was sacked.

This came after the Reds lost 3-1 to Blackburn Rovers in the Premier League where the pressure became too much for the Merseysiders as the future England boss was relieved from his duties in the Anfield hot seat.

Steven Gerrard, Fernando Torres and Joe Cole all featured during the defeat and were unable to prevent Steve Kean’s side from taking all three points.

A big talking point of the game was the captain’s penalty miss in the second half, -which some say that the Champions League-winning skipper purposely missed.

Supporters cringed looking back at the memories of a decade ago and made their feelings clear on social media.

Here you will find some of the best comments from Liverpool fans:
