I will tell you why...because the risk of Kenny undermining BR is minimal and if you look at everything he brings to the table with him, it's a risk worth taking. Basically, the benefits outweigh the risks and i am 100% sure Kenny will not undermine BR. The only ones who can do that are the fans.

as good as Barnes, Hansen and the likes would be as ambassadors, Kenny Dalglish is a class above them in my books and most peoples books. Everyone has heard of Dalglish, but not everyone knows Barnes, Hansen etc. We, strong LFC supporters do, but most of the rest don't. Their is a a massive group of potential supporters who are youngsters at the moment and teenagers, i promise you, they all know who Kenny Dalglish is, but they dont all know Barnes...some do, some don't, but they all know about Kenny.

As i said, the man is an institution!

I don't agree marko people have heard or Barnes or Hansen especially Barnes whose career was ten years after dalglsh and was an international for England. Dalglsh played for Scotland and that has a much lower profile there are only five million scots.

Vish I do apologise for watching Liverpool at Anfield since 1963 that is very bad of me. My sincere apologies to you.

You know how you say you have more experience because you went to the matches and it's different? Well, in the same manner, I have lived in Serbia, the States, South Africa, Switzerland and Italy and trust me when I say that everyone knows who Kenny Dalglish is but not everyone knows who Barnes and Hansen are....

I,ll take your word for that marko

But what does it matter no one is going to buy a shirt, watch a match or sponsor the club because kenny dalglish a player from the seventies is around. Sponsors care about coverage which is linked to success fans follow also in success. I cannot think of a single person on this planet who will follow Liverpool because dalglsh is an ambassador.

I also don't agree the reason for our decline was dalglsh resigning had he stayed something similar to 2012 would have happened. I have no links to show or proof of course but that's where witnessing and judgement come in.

I thin you are mistaken in relation to KK's selling power. People want to watch interviews with KK, so TV stations will interview him, that's a free commercial for LFC right there...that's just one example, head over and read the OP on the "why FSG brought KD back thread for more reasons. You might not agree, but i think KK has enormous marketing potential and a certain weight and influence when it comes to convincing youngsters and players to join.

Kenny's appointment is nothing more than FSG PR work.


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

ok I will buy that but nothing will convince me Dalglish is a good manager and that he was not instrumental in Liverpools decline. Both 20 years ago and more recently the last episode set Liverpool back 5 years in my opinion. In fact had we had Rodgers to replace Hodgson and given him those funds pretty sure we would be in champions league now. That £100m was provided to boost us and almost all of it was wasted. Something I think John Henry noted and his grand plans have been derailed

I doubt that very much Stan considering we never seem to be in the market for CL quality .

Not now but we are in the post dalglsh era. Back then we had the money we paid similar for Carroll as city did for augero. I accept some if these players might not have wanted to come. But pretty sure some might have been pursaded now we have neither the money or the motivation and FSG are ultra cautious and you can't blame them.
