KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum What have FSG brought to the table ?

Good heavens Maxi, you still don’t get it do you? I said we could end up like them if we don’t invest properly. That’s not a comparison.

So you "likened" them to us. That's a comparisons plain and simple according to a dictionary. Back to school now

Not a friend or foe of Fsg personally, but I have seen first hand the effect they've had in Boston.

So much of this thread is based on speculation. Neither side is able to prove their point with any concrete facts.
But,as an example of their intentions FSG's ownership of the Red Sox and Fenway Park is easy enough to document.

Bought in 2001 for a reported $380m. Valued at 1500m in 2014, yes $1500m.
There was talk in 2002 about a new stadium but refurbishment of the existing one was decided on instead.Look at the 2 maps below. The entire area around Fenway has been regenerated in the past 13-14 years, nightclubs, restaurants, pubs, movie theaters etc...The Fenway area is a destination not just on game days. Oh, and the Red Sox have won the World Series (stupid name, I know) 3 times since FSG took over.
Compared to other baseball franchises their record is not too shabby.
Do they have a similar vision for Anfield? I don't know, and neither do any of you! To my mind the geographic similarities
speak volumes.

KEPT SUAREZ FOR NOW

Thats good to hear I dont know the area in boston vs anfield, Anfield is a residential area about 4 miles from the city centre. Also not sure of the corrolation between baseball and premiership football. As for facts we know Utd are 75k now and both manchester clubs have huge concourses with unlimted expansion epecially city. We await the plans both for the stadium and anfield itself I know the area very well and I am not sure how you can provide the space. The new build was to have the anfield stadium as part of the park giving us some form of concourse.

Love that one. They have done that all right never known such low expectations from fans judging by some on here. The fans I know in real life all agree we need a stadium to match our local rivals

Are you intentionally doing this? I have given you links which clearly show united DO NOT HAVE unlimited expansion capability and that any further expansion is highly unlikely. This coming from a united spokesperson.

You know Stanley, for someone who claims others don't give him valid arguments or provide evidence or substantiate their posts, you sure do have a habit of conveniantly skipping over the facts which don't suit you.

Seriously, you should focus more on some of the replies you get instead of just attempting to force feed made up nonsense which suits you. United do not have unlimited space to expand due to existing rail infrastructure and housing.

You must know some strange fans because the vast majority of polls conducted (which I have seen) show that fans are happy with the rnning of teh club.

He never reads a thing. It's quite frustrating.

I fixed that for you! You're welcome.
