Roy Hodgson is sorry, won't take the hint

Roy Hodgson ensured a cruddy end to his 2010 by losing to Wolves as well as afterwards criticizing Liverpool fans for not cheering him as he sinks a group into a endless hole of a bottom half of a table. And now, after realizing which this probably wasn't a most appropriate approach to win over supporters, he's decided to apologize as well as fake which he didn't meant to offend them by saying a "famous Anfield" support has been blank as well as implying which a fans think he's perplexing to lose games upon purpose.

From a Independent:

"Things have been misinterpreted," said Hodgson.

"I was responding to a subject about how it felt to be jeered by fans, making it transparent it hurts me as well as you was unhappy by it since no-one wants to feel they have been unpopular.

"It's not been an easy ride for me as well as you was not a first-choice appointment with a lot of fans.

"But if you have offended them in any approach you deeply regret that.

"All you can do is apologize as well as have it perfectly transparent there was nothing descent in my comments."

Well, that's nice. But if Liverpool fans have been anticipating Roy will slink divided from a bar underneath a cover of night, they can forget it. Hodgson makes it transparent which you're going to have to examine this pursuit from his cold, passed hands.

"It has taken me a prolonged whilst to get to this elevated position coaching a single of a most appropriate clubs in Europe.

"I was really pleased to get a pursuit - you left a really good pursuit to take it - so a last thing in my mind is upon foot divided from a bar similar to this or upon foot divided from football.

"I wish to be here, you wish to change things, you wish to tur! n it aro und as well as you wish to help a bar as well as a brand brand new owners get a success they want."

And you wish my own hack as well as a reality show for Andrei Arshavin.

"I know with a right amount of time as well as patience as well as with a little bit of luck you will get back to where you should be.

"We have been not there at a impulse as well as you have to keep operative towards it.

"Let's not have all ridiculously 'doomy as well as gloomy' since you mislaid a game.

Fair enough. But what if you have all ridiculously doomy as well as gloomy since you mislaid 8 games? And since a fans really don't similar to you. And since a players have been underperforming. And since you're in 12th place. And since a brand brand new owners kind of have no idea what they're in for. And -- you could go on, but you don't wish to be obliged for any suicides.
