Hodgson to fight on as fans call for Kenny
(04-10-2010) Liverpool fans have heaped more pressure on under-fire manager Roy Hodgson by chanting the name of Kenny Dalglish after the Reds shock loss to Blackpool on Sunday. The 2-1 setback at Anfield left the Merseysiders mired in the relegation zone following their worst start to a season in 56 years. Hodgson however has vowed to fight on. "The fans are frustrated at the moment - there are a lot of things happening and it's understandable they are frustrated,” he commented afterwards. "I am the manager, I am the one who has to take responsibility and I have to accept their right to aim their frustration in my direction.” He added: "I had very good moments with Fulham in May and some very bad moments now. But after 35 years in football I don't think that I have suddenly lost my ability as a manager."
