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

Its on red and white kop on the thread about henry's letter I am sure with some determination you will find it. On the other hand you could save yourself some time asnd trust my word for it.

i do trust your word on it, but it's interesting so i feel like reading it.

Go for it mate

Ok well at least they are actually thinking about balancing the books and we need to remember they paid off our debts.

Down side is something went wrong on the last transfer day so why leave it so late. Mistakes happen of which we learn from so hopefully that will not happen again.

Plus people moaning about money spent by kenny, he didn't spend it, he told comolli the players he wanted. But comolli was the one that struck the deals and over spent hence why he got the boot first.

I am glad we have owners that won't let us go the same route as Leeds and Portsmouth. Just hope brendon Rodgers is a genius and can do a wenger by putting us in the top 4 with clever and cheap transfers.

... 34 pages. you gave me enough info

Time will tell. They obviously don't care soley about the club/fans as they're a business but you have to figure the plan was to inject cash (+ sales addittedly) and get us back in the Champions League and build on that. Unfortunately for them the players were some of the worst in our history and we're in a worse position so they've obviously decided a more long-term solution is in order.

Problem is that if they're asset stripping to sell to another H&G etc.. the buyers will know all about the club and it's potential and realise there's not enough players to compete. Finishing out of Europe won't do it any good either.

They seem to be getting the club to a level where financially they don't need to be in Europe, and are hoping to gradually bring in younger, cheaper players, and hoping BR gets some real bargains and the team starts to climb. Unfortuantely they don't understand football and it'll get us nowhere as our better players will start to leave.

If they don't put this right in January/early next summer, we'll be in real trouble. We need Carrol to be sold too to add to the budget.

I did warn you

its clear there are behind the scenes issues , and this letter is nothing more than a charm and PR offensive very nice and all that , but his letter has just said what i believe ok the club wont be in administration but expect no really backing for whoever the manager is and i know some what him gone after 3 league games but brendan isnt going he is part of the clubs policy , there will be money available but forget the big wages and transfers while FSG own the club

Comolli wouldn't have spent £35m on andy carroll without dalglish giving him the go ahead. The buck stops with kenny - he is ultimately responsible for last season and his legacy is where we are now.
The only reason that Comolli got booted first is because there was no need to keep him any longer - they had decided he would no longer handle kenny's transfers so there was no point in keeping him on the payoll until the end of the season.

The prejudice against the owners is moronic.
You can't spend money that you don't have, and it doesn't grow on trees. People expecting a sugar daddy are juvenile delinquents.
FSG can't just give millions to spend on the hope that it pays for itself, Leeds tried that over a decade ago and look what they got.
