Thank You Brendan Rodgers!

It was over 4 years back, when I had written the blog titled " Make Us Believe " inspired by an article having the same title, which was a fan's plea to Rafa... that incidentally was when Liverpool was last in a position when it was competing for the ultimate prize.. the coveted one that I want Gerrard to win !! It has been a long enduring time for the team and the fans, without the Glory days and the magical European Nights.. however under Rodgers this season, it finally seems like the glory days and especially European nights might finally make their way back to Anfield, a just reward for the unwavering fans who have stood by the team, the players and the managers over the testing times.

The manner in which Liverpool played made my staying awake till past 5 am worth it. No ZEE sports, so had to wait for the delayed telecast on Ten. 13 march ... Time to 'C' wat dreams are made of.... Was really shattered by IIM-C gdpi panel. Y MBA????? They showed me that watever i had thought abt this lingering question was absolute crap, crap which didnt last 10 minutes in front of them. And ofcourse there's my unbeliavably bad acads.
