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

Who else than United managers that, Arsenal had a trophy in a decade but have a brand new stadium and City has a Sugar Daddy and got gifted a brand new stadium. Remind me who the others are?

People are way to worried about city! They will become a recognised force in Europe but to say they will be as big as real and barcalona in 10 years is fcking stupid. It will take them 40 years to overtake Liverpool and United (trophy wise) at this moment in time they are probably about as popular as Leeds and Blackburn were in the early 90's

In 50 yrs we will all be probably dead, so let's sort out the next 10 years first else LFC will become a mid table team.

As I have said many times for me personally better to refurb Anfield and yes 50 years we will all be dead. But pretty selfish of our generation to limit Liverpool for all time for a little bit more money to spend on players in the sort term. In fact its very selfish and very short sighted stadiums last for a 100 years or more.

Yeah fck 50 years time. I'll be 85 and I'm sure I won't really give a [oops] about football anymore. 50 years ago liverpool were only just on the radar, United we're nowhere. The truth is 50 years from now things will have changed beyond recognition and it won't be what your all predicting. 18 years ago everyone was convinced Blackburn were the next big thing. A few years later it was Leeds.

Was just thinking that good job people like these were not developing the club 50 years ago I suspect none of them would be following Liverpool today because we would be a small parochial club not a world brand.

What the hell are you talking about? If we do not sort out the next 15 years the world brand might just disappear and do you really think that those who were running the club 50 years ago were thinking about world brand? It's not the stadium that made the world brand but success on the field and then tv. It's not the stadium that's going to make us great again (because we are not right now and for some decades already) but success on the field. Your plan is just going to get us backwards but with a brand new stadium may be like Villa or Newcastle who have had bigger stadiums than us for a long time. Happy that FSG are no fools.

My father's father didn't even know what football was and my father never supported LFC. The majority of fans are like that even if they don't live in Liverpool or the surroundings.

Looking after the next 15 years is building a new stadium its not just 50 years hence. Once we revamp Anfield I wager in less than a decade they will be saying its too small. They are already saying it and we have not even laid a brick in the ground.

Another factor would a new build generate more income in corporate, naming rights and advertising space than anfield refurb that would go some way to negate the extra capital cost.

I have no facts or numbers but to me this would seem a possibility
