KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum John Henry, an open letter to LFC fans.

notice any new blood lately?

no!

not only is the team not competing for even 5th, their is no excitement and only despair over the last 2 years

excitment is a number 9, we have none.

The person who posted about the fan base disappearing is right. I would say at Anfield 50% of the supporters at the game are 50 years of age and older. Once they go who will replace them? It also might explain why there is zero atmosphere at Anfield these days too many sensible people thinking about sensible middle aged middle class things.

makes sense...all things to worry...they just are waiting for FFP perhaps as he mentioned in the letter...screwed big time fellas

nice PR, but what did he say?

no more throwing away with cash... everybody's bitching at AC, and they didnt feel dempsey was worth the asking price. maybe even BR wasn't happy with the price. we assume FSG [oops] us, maybe fulham did ?
if they want to invest in young capable players to get us forward, credits goes to them.

he stated for the coming 16 years and more, which suggests he knows ppl think he's here to re-sell us. he says it's not the case.. what more can he do ?

i think it's too soon. BR said he needed 3 transfer windows, and he's disappointed. it's not the end of the world.

i can't really comment on the fanbase thingy, i've been supporting liverpool since 2007, when i was 17. i've never known glory really :p even in 2005 i was so young i couldn't be arsed.

maybe i am stupid, but i trust in FSG, brendan and our players.

YNWA

thats a good sign ites but how many like you are there one would imagine...

plus comes to mind why leave it so late for dempsey..why wasnt there a plan B as it was more than obvious Fulham gonna Fuuck us....

clearly says what was the priority..offloading Carroll or replacing Carroll..offcourse it was offloading him

we can blame FSG all we want.rightly so or not..time will tell..

BR for now is safe and in everyone's good books but what did he learn from our last season's performances? that we were lacking in fire power or midfield? clearly suggests he wanted to get rid of crap midfielders and improve midfield.so he did with whatever cash was there...allen..sahin....why not sign a proven striker perhaps first and then look at options to improve midfield?

We haven't competed for years so why not end the transfer business for a few years because clearly every player we touch turns into dust and just flops for his entire contract. End the transfer window for a few years, we don't need to compete and build a stadium that will help us in the long run. At least building a stadium while we are not competing can compensate and make us a bit happy as it will help us big time in the future. We haven't been in the champions league for 3 or 4 years now and clearly we are nowhere near going back any time soon, build the stadium that we need FSG.

because you can't play brendan's style with crap midfielders.

so we are playing or trying to play brendens system..seen glimpses of that..but still need someone to finish...

lets agree that system was the priority.system is there.or atleast the foundations

'Finally, I can say with authority that our ownership is not about profit. Contrary to popular opinion, owners rarely get involved in sports in order to generate cash'
- so you buy into a soccer club thousands of miles away for the pure LOVE of the club.....maybe cos you liked the beatles so much. Such an utter pile of crap....just be honest and say that profit is important for investors, in general. Thats what you are , afterall.....either that or mentally retarded for falling in love with something you have no connection with!!
