Warren Diego
Ever since I decided to leave my exciting women’s coaching soccer career in Tasmania in 1993, the Diegos have been part of my life. I may have been the adopted brother, but all the brothers have accepted me as their own. In all the graveyard shifts and at all the LIVE events we have been like true brothers, through the good times of Liverpool winning Champions League finals to the bad times when I divorced Liverpool for Bolton they have been there, a band of brothers talking together, laughing together, bagging me together about the game we love, the world game Football.
Ignore Cynicism - Liverpool are King
Call me a Dreamer but Liverpool is the Greatest Team in English Football
It must be great for Carlos (see: Carlos' Blog - Open Letter To Warren Diego dated 13 July 2010) to sit in his ivory tower and take cheap shots at the best club in English football history. As usual he has taken his typical cold hard callous approach to everything football.
In the world of Carlos there is no room for history, passion, romance and dreams. It is all about the realities of the modern age - if you don't have the money you wont get the success.
The way forward for Liverpool will have many ups and downs. Probably more failure than success in the short term but in this cynical world, that Carlos is so comfortable in, I believe that a club looking to go back to old fashion methods that brought it so much success, can only bring one thing - even greater success in the future.
Call me a dreamer and claim that I live in my own fantasy world but until Carlos shows me that he has some passion for something other than bagging the greatest club in England, I refuse to continue to respond to his dribble in the form of his so called Open Letters Warren Diego.

Liverpool Rant Mark II
Rebirth or Still Birth?
No matter what anyone might say, the Premier League will always be a better competition when Liverpool is doing well, so that is why the appointment of a new manager in Roy Hodgson is so important.
Those wishing for the further demise of Liverpool will say that this appointment just confirms the fall of Liverpool.
The club has appointed a journeyman manager who's real claim to fame is taking Fulham to the final of the 'Kissing Your Sister' cup this year.
Those with true faith will say that the new manager begins the rebirth of Liverpool, taking the club back to the traditions of the 50's and 60's.
Only time will tell, and maybe sooner than we think, because if the likes of Gerrard and Torres do not buy into the rebirth of traditional values at the Liverpool Football club, the transformation will be a long and painful one.

Warren's Liverpool Rant
We need a revolution but what will we get at the end of it all
The occassional revolution is a good thing. It has worked for countries, political parties and sporting teams. With revolution however, comes unknown risks.
There is no doubt a revolution needed to take place at Liverpool. With the owners going (soon we hope) when they sell the club for a fair price, it seemed the right time for 'Rafa the Rotator' to go. Not that he alone was to blame for our poor season this year.
I always hate agreeing with Carlos (Alberto Diego), but one thing he say's is true, Liverpool has lost it's identity and must get this back if it is to again to challenge for the title.
But will going back to a great of the club in Kenny Dalgleish work 30 years after his glory days as a player and manager? Can the prodigal son be the catalyst that starts the process? Will our modern day hero Steven Gerard buy into the revolution or will he look to greener pastures in Spain?
Only time wil tell.
