And we’ll still be ahead of them and they’ll still be paying the mortgage. A new stadium means shitte in the grand scheme of things.

Their seating capacity will still be less than us and they will have to pay back their loan. I however don't know how much money their owner has to throw away. In any case, after 2 sales campaign we got H&G who almost brought the club into administration (This is what happens when you cannot pay your debt) and then FSG. There must be a reason why we didn't get Qatar or the likes for owners, they bought PSG after FSG. However, you can always have your wet dreams if you are having fun.

I hope you are right it's just as well as we won't be getting a new stadium patch and mend is the FSG way Bolton, Sunderland, Wigan. All new stadiums and no where to be seen. Arsenal have won just two FA cups since their move and are only just getting back some financial clout. Look at the trouble Spurs are having and even the money of Abramovic is struggling with a new stadium. West Ham have stolen a new stadium in London and how are they doing. I am right. A new stadium doesn’t garuntee anything and certainly won’t propel the likes of Everton to world beaters. We’ll still have a bigger stadium than them don’t forget and will continue to have a bigger fan base.

I would prefer for the owners to make a genuine effort to win the league, then maintain and improve the squad and standing. That would make me happy.

I like good financial management including good income generating activity, and that's something FSG do quite well. However profit seeking owners such as FSG come and go, and what's important is what they leave behind, as they exit and take their profits with them. My criteria for good ownership is what they've won and the quality of the infrastructure they leave behind! As it's unlikely they'll leave five or six hundred million Stg. in the locker room in lieu of the Stadium they should have built. The Kirkby rebuild is the biggest infrastructural improvement we've had since Shanks arrived and built the boot room and re-did Mellwood. They have expanded Anfield. No credit for that? No red, I'm afraid there's no credit accruing to them for a missed opportunity, investment cowardice and a legacy of an outdated tart up stadium that fails to match the best of our competition. They bottled it. The competition is on the field and probably seating capacity to increase revenues, competition is not on the design of the stadium or how shiny it is. Ah come on vish, you can read and comprehend better than that! You surely know I'm talking seating capacity as well as a modern stadium, since I'm talking about matching "the best of our competition".

That's my point, competition regarding seating capacity makes sense and we will most probably remainly top 3 in England, even 2nd behind United. There is no need to spend a lot to compete on modernity at the expense of other more important expenditure.

As I've said previously it's about ambition, and ambition for LFC fans should always be about being ahead of United in all areas including stadia.
