In this current climate, you would be lucky to find a significant number of people who could afford to put up any sort of money to buy shares. It just won’t happen in this country as it is, people can barely afford to hear their homes. It’s a travesty that football has evolved into this, all you can do realistically is hope the new lot aren’t completely awful human beings.

Hertha Berlin's President (Chairman) is a former Ultra. While I don't like what they did with their "investor" in recent times, I thought that was a pretty neat thing.

Nothing is permanent and just because the money can’t be laid out right now doesn’t mean the ideals and desire for change can’t be spread and held. What’s a travesty is a symbol for a community isolating and pricing out those in the community it’s meant to represent. People can’t heat their homes but they expect hundreds of pounds for a ticket, or a jersey, or to even watch it on the tele. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,368 Posted November 7, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted November 7, 2022 How would Liverpool fans feel if the club was going to be owned by an oil magnate or state-funded like Newcastle/Man City? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be owned by an absolute cunt who's values are the antithesis of the values of the city and the club, because you don't get to having over £3.5b (cos apparently that's the valuation - and anyone buying it I would assume would need to have a higher net worth than that, although we might get a Glazer style leveraged buyout) without being an absolute cunt that's got values that are the antithesis of the values of Liverpool (as a city) & LFC. So it's pretty shit. I think the best case scenario is if FSG truly aren't looking to completely sell and are looking to take on a new stakeholder who can help splash the cash. And even that isn't a great scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how I feel about this personally. It was always going to end up here imo because no single investor/owner was ever going to be able to keep up with the financial demands of competing in the current football climate and like I said earlier there are very few entities that can actually match the necessary funding required to make this happen and all of them fall into one of the two brackets you mention or some other variant.

Rick 2,271 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 FSG have put out a statement saying they are fully committed to the club, and are only open to the possibility of extra investment. I can live with this as long as the new shareholders have some money to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they are trying to get a cash injection so you can compete with us for Jude as you cant currently spend a full transfer window budget on one player, probably why Klopp had a meltdown the other week saying he cant compete when he got the news that City have swooped in for Mr Bellingham ..lucky for us we have just recorded record profits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFCMike 3,009 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I don't like this. It'll be a state takeover which I absolutely wouldn't want or risk someone worse than FSG. FSG have been far from perfect and made some pretty high profile PR mistakes but they have been much better than the Glazers, Hicks & Gillett and some other owners who have come over here in the last 20 years.

It spills over to Newcastle as well. then you have Liverpool and man United crying hardest about having bad owners or no money yet both have the highest commercial revenue and pretty high expenditure especially man United and acting like Newcastle are going to outspend them anytime soon. If man United had a proper recruitment team the last 15 years they may actually beat city and their wealth, Liverpool didn't anticipate players falling off so dramatically but it's not a money issue it is aging and regression issues that cannot be controlled, Liverpool had a settled but aging squad as do man city which will hurt them to when they need to replace players.
