KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum FSG need to go.

We are Liverpool FC.
We are one the greatest clubs in England,we are one of the greatest clubs in the world.

Mention Real Madrid, Barcelona, AC Milan, Inter Milan,Bayern Munich, Manchester Utd and our club, our name, our history can stand toe to toe with any of the above.

We are a great club,it could be argued the greatest club in the world.

AND

WE ARE BEING LET DOWN.

We sold to a couple of cowboys in Hicks and Gillett and are now owned by more Americans (FSG) who areno different inmy view to the above in fact they are very similar.

Hicks and Gillett never redeveloped Anfield or built us a new ground

(SNAP) same for FSG.

Hicks and Gillett took money out of the club and never put any of the enormous fortune they had into signing players (ie the Chelsea and Man City owners)

SNAP same for FSG.

Hicks and Gillett rarely attended our games.

John W Henry has not attended a game all season, our chairman Werner is based in the USA.

It is time for FSG to sell the club to more worthy owners.
A owner who realizes they have a gem and one of the biggest names in world football.

It is time FSG left in the same way that Hicks and Gillett left.

How many Liverpool fans agree with me, that the tenure of FSG is up and they need to sell our club?

I totally agree. My concern is that we are going the route of Sunderland & Aston Villa both of whom have Yankee owners who haven't got a clue about football

Reality check. It's not in our control. The last thing we need is turmoil. Suggest let nature take it's course. One or two more seasons and BR will have proved himself one way or the other. Similarly, FSG will have shown themselves to be what they really are - whatever that may be.

In the meantime, they may well accept a good offer should it come their way, but let not the fans put themselves in a position where those with vested interests can start pssing the blame on the fans for disrupting the club. This is what the media did when the fans expressed their dissatisfaction with Roy.

Not me. Sorry

I just fail comprehend how our owners fail to attend a single Liverpool match in the case of JWH in an entire season.

It is an appalling show of lack of support to Liverpool FC, and
really we deserve better.

Most fans have the wool pulled over their eyes purely because FSG have amuch better PR machine than Hicks and Gillett.

But enough must be enough, surely for our club?

We already know what FSG are, the actions of not attending a game, making our first team squad smaller, not supporting BR in the summer transfer window, no plans to redevelop Anfield or build a new stadium.

What more do you need to know about the true colours of FSG?

Perhaps the sale of Suarez in the summer will be the final breaking point

FSG simply don't have the resources to take Liverpool forward. We are in a big hole and once our brand and fan base go there will be no going back.

the thing is, either we stand on our own feet, i.e. local owner/fan ownership/or live within the means of the earnings we generate etc., or we're always going to be at the mercy of foreign owners.

I don't particularly want high octane, short term success with owners who don't have much connection with the city/club. With owners like FSG, I'm happy they don't attend matches. Just let us get on with it. It's also a case of better the devil you know.

I'm sure BR will get £20 - £30m per window/season. That's fine for now. and FSG did allow Kenny to splash the cash.

Do they really need to attend games??

What difference does that make??

Sorry. Cant agree with the OP. I understand the frustration but FSG has done more right than wrong since taking over. As for JWH, I couldnt care less whether he's at the games or not.

FSG have done OK. I don't want rid of them unless someone of the calibre of City's owners descend on the club. Imagine if the equivalent of Venkys came in! All the clowns that took Rangers and Portsmouth to the cleaners!
