KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum How Liverpool and FSG’s plan is coming together

Agree with that, but some just want a new stadium

Jesus guys, let's all relax. FSG has only owned the club for like three years. The years before that we were finishing 7th and 8th, and last year we were two points shy of winning the title.

Let's try not to be so negative. This season's barely started, we have a young talented team, and a young talented manager. Let's have a little faith before immediately condemning FSG because they will be unable to bring us glory.

Have any of you seen what FSG has done with the Boston Red Sox in the last 15 years? The Red Sox were a perpetual basement team from the late 80s to early 00s. FSG did then exactly what they are doing now with Liverpool. You go back to basics, cut the wage bill, appoint a young ambitious manager, install a winning philosophy, build for the future and try to constantly improve every season. The Red Sox have won 3 World Series with FSG, almost as much as in the whole teams history!

Yes, football is incredibly different from baseball but winning competitions is a similarity between the two sports and FSG has proven they can do that so let's give them a chance with Liverpool. We never know.

Don't write them off just because they aren't rich arab owners shelling 200 mil every transfer window. I would be incredibly disappointed in Liverpool if that's what we did in order to win. We're better than the arab money City team and better than the ruskie money Chelsea team.


All I am saying is have faith in FSG and in their plan.

Then why do you post on koptalk why not just read journalists articles if they are the people with the answer. The Liverpool echo is my local evening paper along with the Manchester evening news I read them a lot dare I say it more than you do. When the plans were announced for the new stadium on Stanley park the echo was enthusing with pages of articles the echos stance on the redevelopment is a lot more muted. But the end of the day marko these people are just journalists often young ones straight out of university they are not the fount of all knowledge you seem to think

I would prefer to leave anfield as it is rather than waste money on a refurbishment even the FSG groupies concede we might have to build a new stadium in 15 years. So yes better to spend the money on the team and wait for proper owners with the resources for a club of Liverpool,s size

I am not refgering to any journalists. I am reffering to the decision makers and their advisers and the simple fact that you assume i would take a journalists word for it shows that you don't understand our point of view. The people with the facts, the advisers, consultants, project managers and decision makers have analyzed the situation in depth and came to the conclusion that a refurb is better for the club right now. I take their word for it. Not the journalists.

P.S. we have this beautiful thing called the internet. It enables people from all over the world to read the echo just as often as you can. Heck, you could even read the Tanzanian local paper if you want.

Have they ? where ? FSG,s advisers will advise John Henry right enough but it wont be the good of Liverpool FC that will be the objective you can be sure of that.

Wrong again Marko the online Echo is nothing like the paper version otherwise no one would ever buy it would they ?

Some articles are the same but most of the echo (including the football) is not online.

Alrighty then.

Do you remember what happened to the last owners who tried to put their personal interests ahead of the clubs? Have you ever wondered why there isn't a firing squad waiting for FSG like there was for Hicks and Gillett? There is nothing wrong with them making money if their interests are aligned with those of the club. Which they are.
