You want to fight, go for it then, I don't really understand what you want to do. FSG is not taking any money out of the club at least so far and have injected above 100m in the club on top of paying 300m to the banks for it. They are the ones who are increasing the capacity while others just promissed. Yes a rich arab owner would be better but there are none after the club that I know and moaning here continuously doesn't change anything. We have had 3 owners in the last 10 years or so, which one of them was the best, you tell me. I don't really understand what some people want to happen, some realism would help.

I don't think the benchmark has been set very high on ownership over the last 10 years Vish,so in that respect the award would be going to FSG. Yey!


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.

Yes, this is what I am saying, LFC has been offered for purchase twice, Moores couldn't get the club anywhere and the lagging behind United was under his ownership while we were the better team and H&G almost brought the club to administration by not being able to pay the debt. I don't know what expectations needs to be adjusted but I can see us progressing under FSG, we are on the right path though everybody would be happier if it could be quicker. Making investments that the club cannot afford will just cripple it and no investors would inject money in a project that is so risky. Last but not least, a bigger or new stadium can always be built if required in 15 years even if it has to be in a different region, a lot of things can happen in 15 years

How many owners in world football qualify as better than FSG? IMO Chelsea, city ang psg. Forget Monaco because they are having a fire sale. Roman at chelsea is only interested in moving chelsea to a new ground so he can get his hands on the prime realestate that is the bridge. The only ones I'm jealous of are city's because they seem genuinely interested in building something.

It's very easy to sit here judging FSG for not doing this or that but truth is 20 teams in the prem only 1 has a better owner than us. If you deny that then you have your head in the sand living in a state of denial

Thats fine but then people need to accept that in the long term Liverpool will not be a top European club we will be left behind. We probably will still stay in the premership level but not top four or champions league we wont have the infrastruture to compete.

The problem I have with this whole subject is that I don't see whining about it on a forum as productive. Most people on this forum have absolutely no direct contact with the club. None of us have any real say on what's going to happen. You say it's the most important thing facing LFC as if you expect us to be able to do anything about it.

You preach doom and gloom and tell us that it's our fault because we're willing to accept it, why don't you join SOS or another group that has direct contact with the directors of the club? I actually have great admiration for how passionate you are about this subject, I jilt get very annoyed with your attitude towards anyone that has a counter argument.

Ummm, sorry to interrupt, but, we are in the best state we have been in for decades and improving further. If that cant put a smile on your face as a fan, then whats the point? This thread is about a plan and vision shared by our owners and manager and how they are putting it into practice. Just look at us on the pitch. We haven't been this exciting to watch in the past 20 years. We were the most televised club in the league last season, that means that there was an audience for us, which means people wanted to watch us....goes a long way towards expanding our fan base.

Media income is dwarfing gate receipts at the moment and we appear to be what people want to watch. We have a young and very talented squad who are growing together and will form the foundation for greatness. Our times is upon us, victory on the horizon. Getting rich oil barons as owners would be the easy way of doing things, and we all know we don't do things the easy way. Anything worth doing is worth doing right. I promise you, in 10 years time we will look upon this setup at the club and hail them.as heroes for bringing back the league title and the glory days to Liverpool. Mark my words.
