    777 Partners / Whatever the hell you like

    We have all witnessed the grim trudge toward relegation and insolvency under Moshiri/Kenwright. There is a wealth of documented reasons not to be excited about 777, but I don't see how possible doom is worse than inevitable doom. As far as the poll is concerned, I can be in favor without being...

    Ferguson Caretaker Manager

    I'm fine with Dunc at the helm for an extended period of time so we have time to make a solid, long-term appointment instead of rushing into the next doomed era. The challenge is actually finding someone with a solid, long-term vision for us and the ability to carry it out. Maybe big Dunc has...

    Minor things that make you happy

    Just rolling back the years and reminiscing on the abundance of hours I whiled away wandering these virtual halls. The insurmountable debt of lost sleep, the thoughtless waste of fleeting youth, and the prevailing, unfailing joy that this community brought. I don't know how long I've been gone...

    I appreciate the leniency here, what is the preferred euphemism for fly m*****f***** these days?

    Questions about post-war Liverpool

    As it happens, yes, so that might be worth exploring. It's spooky reading about him from Chinese sources since the establishment began to accept him the 1980s. The revisionism in his obituaries and biographies is striking. That said, he wasn't a politician, he just wasn't liked by the government...

    Questions about post-war Liverpool

    I definitely will, thanks for the leads. Is that library public? Would any prior arrangements need to be made to access records? Sounds like these cats down at LJMU may be keen on this type of connection. If they don't know already, they may be pleased to hear that one of China's premier...

    Questions about post-war Liverpool

    From what I understand, he finished his studies in Liverpool before returning to be a professor in China. It's possible something is lost in translation here, but it's also possible that there is some tomfoolery going on with the claim: He technically would have graduated a few months before...

    Questions about post-war Liverpool

    Based purely on Google maps imagery, that seems like a good shout. Plus, I would get a chance to survey the proposed stadium lot vicariously. As others have mentioned, I'll be trying to get in touch with the University next week. I think he may have given a commencement address some time in...

    Questions about post-war Liverpool

    ...grandfather passed away recently. Without boring you too much with family history, here is some context: In addition to being one fly motherf***er, he was a respected academic and historian in China, which made him a politically controversial figure. Anyway, after being arrested by...
