everything you said is very posible scannerman, the early sale sure would help us capture a couple more top players before season starts aswell.
fingers crossed

taken this from another forum:
So we are hearing more of the same stuff about takeovers, press conferences ect...
However i had a little look at at the main site and while i was checking out things regarding tuesday I noticed that the stadium tour is only on at 10:30 and 16:00.
Why such a big gap? Is this normal on a tuesday?
not sayin this means its all true but it looks like something is goin on tomorrow
the tours run every 15mins, they had new staff and actors come in to improve the standards, the people running it were told they needed to triple the revenue

A few things;
press conference tomorrow is more than likely to unveil Cole, Jovanovic, shelvey to the fans.
The new stadium revenue is not from the ordinary fan but the corperate fan. we have significantly lower matchady income compared to others in this area. What the increased capacity will do is bring back the 'walk up fan'. Big concerns in football generally about the lack of youth attending games due to cost and ticket availability.

Went on the tour a few months ago. I had been before in 86, it was a present for my birthday off my missus' mum and dad. Thought it was quality and comparing the changes was brill, great the way the changing rooms are the same, so the players don't get too comfortable in there. The press conference part was ace, and really funny, the guy who showed us the room was hilarious.
I just checked the availability of the tours and it is a big gap on Tuesday, and they need to triple the revenue then surely they wouldn't allow so much time without a tour happening.
What does it mean though???? who knows !!!! was the guy who does the rafa/carra/gerrard impersonations there? i watched one with me old boss when they first started the new one it was quality it could just be a signing for all we know, a takeover makes that sound like bad news doesnt it hahaha. suppose we'll just have to wait

I hope I am wrong and there is exciting news tomorrow. Problem is there are more leaks than a Colander at Liverpool so IF it was more than the norm somebody would have bleated it by now.
Kids are turning away from Liverpool, the days of getting the bus with your school mates from Runcorn,Speke, warrington, Widnes to get in at 1pm are long gone.

i dont wanna get my hopes up and feel let down once again so im keepin my feet firmly on the floor but i'll be watching skysportsnews quite often tomorrow. after all this speculation it would be funny (or not) if it was just an interview for the e-season ticket holders on the website lol

I don't see any evidence of that myself, quite the opposite in fact with there being plenty of LFC shirts in our area (approx 15 miles from the ground) and we are easily the most supposted team What i will say however is that 99% of the shirts have either Torres or Gerrard on the back so apart from their playing ability it shows just how importatnt it is to keep those two. Stevie has three years max left and Torres will more than likely be gone then too so we really need to be planning ahead

not quite my point, I appreciate the following just not at the match. I used to get the X5 from Runcorn with school friends and que up at 12:30ish to get in. 2 quid in 1986 for a junior!
i got the bug and got a season ticket as soon as I was working at 16(88').
You just cannot do that anymore. BUT with an extra 20,000 seats it would open up that level of support. Just my view, and maybe a bit romantic about it.
