Like the manager or hate the manager, this is not the Liverpool way.
Anfield isn't known for protests against bosses. It gets behind its team, it supports its staff and players. Liverpool supporters are supposed to be just that, supporters of Liverpool.
They're not supposed to be flying airplanes over the stadium with messages against the current regime - one that almost won the league last year.
And, although that
'Rodgers Out' protest did happen yesterday at QPR, fans of the club have since hit out at the actions of a minority.
It started with Jamie Carragher initially calling for a bit of cop on.

He then brandished the protest that did go ahead as a 'joke'.

But he wasn't long in finding backers who weren't happy with the actions.

But Brendan Rodgers had a simple response to the protest. And it really was as simple as pointing to 12 months ago when they were just one result off winning their first ever Premier League title.
"I thought it was Rafa's [Benitez] agent," he joked when asked about the banner.
"Football has short memories. We sat here last year and nearly won the league."
There were no banners then.
