Yerp

My word you cant be for real

I am afraid so

I started it because I kept seeing it mentioned in different posts. Not sure who it was though but I'm sure it wasn't just one person.

I wanted to know if I'd missed something or if it was pure speculation based on very little. I was thinking the latter and still do.

I see, understandable. Well as far as i know were not for sale, first time i heard of it was Saturday when abc brought it up 6 or 7 times and then people started to reply evantually then people who were new to the conversation actually believed it, i highly doubt were for sale but every man has his price.

Can't see why they'd want to sell this early on. It's not like they'd make a massive profit is it?

FSG are not selling, there is absolutely no truth in this, why would they, there has been no indication whatsoever that they are thinking of selling up, just wishful thinking on fans part because the owners have indicated through Rodgers that they won't be spending big in January...

No, not really. Just 1 fan said it and 10 caught on, nothing more than that. But of course you'll have some theory as to why FSG are filthy cheats whos are draining the club of money and banging our players wives...

what are you going on about???

i dont think its a matter of looking to sell the club. i think since the daglish reign the owners have realised their failure. they now have so many players on the books that are stretching the clubs finances who really do not represent value for money considering our league positions over the last couple of years. our wage bill is probably bigger than some of the top four clubs at the moment.

the manager will also want to spend, so before he can do that he has to offload. not only to reduce the wage bill but to make sure it doesn't increase and restrict us while we're trying to move forward in the future. so many players on big contracts of £50k or > a week who don't represent value for money at the moment. - carroll, henderson, downing, cole, doni (wherever he is), carragher (harsh but he's costing us a great deal at the moment) and probably a few more. plus there are youngsters at the club who will be looking for improved deals so we have to create some room for them.
