the 'word' seems to be that they were not keen on kenny from the start. however given 5 months to prove himself he did very well, and with the supporters backing he was hard to overlook.
I find it ridiculous how many times the manager gets the chop for underperforming players. find me another manger that has won the PL with 2 different clubs and won as much as he has as a player.
Spot on with everything you say there BUT Liverpool have had the funds for big purchases and have still managed their worst Leauge position in 20 something years.
I am not a Liverpool supporter but those that are must be pulling their hair out in frustration, yes the players have under performed and many are not good enough for any Premier Leauge club let a loan a so called "big club" such as Liverpool but it all comes down from the manager, who they buy, who plays, what formation, what tactics blah blah blah and keeping Dalglish because of past achievements is wrong, only my opinion.
Yep... based on recent results, the team performances were not good enough. The manager is always responsible for their signings. He propably got longer than most, simply down to the fact that many expected there players to do better.
However a manager that has won the championship 4 times, and done it with 2 different clubs does command some respect. Its just a shame that it seems to come from the fans, rather than to a few so-called footballers whom he signed and handed contracts worth millions of pounds. I think FSG had other ideas from day 1.. I dont think it will take them long
to name a replacement.
However if they get this wrong 
I'm all for staying with the same manager and at the end of the season take stock and go from there. I think the days are long gone where a club (or it's supporters) sticks with their manager if results are not what's expected or anticipated.
Look at my team, Spurs, before "the Legend that is Harry" came along we went through managers at an alarming rate. No manager is ever given the time to build a team over 2,3 or 4 years.
For example - Everton have no money at all and every year they stay up (usually with no problem) and it's down to the SAME manager, they don't get scared mid season and sack him, they put their faith in him and it's paid off. Look at Wolves, sack Mick and they went down, not saying they would have stayed up with him but it's the stability and continuity that the same person brings that helps.
