2012/13 me thinks

Hi Wakka,it would be almost certainly personal involvement. ADIA is a sovereign wealth fund, they wouldn't be likely investors in this type of deal. Any private equity they do is in stable, cash generative companies with a value of around minimum $2 billion, or real estate. They work like a pension fund who invests for the long term benefit of their people/members. Their total funds under management are around $800 billion.

cheers northjet,thats what i was thinking.

There is ways round the new rules like for example new owners company could sponser the club for stupid money like abramovich did with some russian club a few yrs back

Please make it be true....then this club can stick two fingers up at a few people who deserve it, after the crap that's been written about us recently

Spot on. No need for all out splashing of cash for the sake of it. 2/3 world class additions to complement what we have. The World Cup might be the biggest blessing for us at the moment, as Dunk says they want to get it done in the next 5 weeks. Most players will delay there transfers until after the WC and so we might be able to get the top talent we need.

platini claims they are not going to allow that to happen

yea i totally agree. if this really happens then it will be so nice to tell all media to f*** off and never open their mouth about liverpool again.

I want the club to go to someone who loves the club, it's traditions and only wants to see it flourish. We deserve better than to be treated as a commodity to get rich from.

Whoever it is doesn't have to be the richest man on the planet, just have enough to get us back on an even footing until the new stadium can be built. We are Englands most successful club from our endeavours and not from some fat wallet from somewhere unheard of.

this man is so rich that he wouldn't be in it to make money...just like his brother at city or roman at chelsea.
