ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[SpurtingLesbian]

Another trophy they've won. It's a procession of silverware that place.

Joint third place in two National competitions...

It's a kid, pack in the stick. C,mon now.

He might be a kid but he looks old enough to ‘have a word’ with his dad.

As a woman with a penis I can only be in favour of his continued patronage and financial support.

I always find pleasure in spurting lesbian's issuances...not sure about the penis bit though

Spent much of today being amused thinking of this photo...
Just picturing them dejectedly leaving Wembley in their silly costumes.... sitting on a train for 3 hours holding their flags & not speaking a word...getting home, greeted by an embarrassed wife/mother whose face just said "I told you so".....

Bet earlier yesterday they even had super hero names for themselves....Anfieldman & Kop boy, Captain Liverpool & Red Rider....

It's borderline child abuse

"The Americans plan to conduct a thorough review into this season, once the campaign has finished"

"FSG have no plans at this point to change manager"

Qualification for the Champions League, the club’s main target at the start of the season, looks unlikely at present, and would represent a significant failure if it was not achieved...missing out on next season’s Champions League would be viewed as a major blow by FSG, who believed the £116m spending spree sanctioned last summer would deliver qualification, despite the sale of Luis Suarez."


Oh dear, sounds like Gnashers is going to get the official 'backing from the board' statement soon...the first step to the sack next autumn, I'd say.

That sounds very ominous. They were very ruthless with Dalglish, sacking him after winning the worthless cup and getting to the cup final.

I don't think we quite know how the operate yet. They afforded Rodgers a poor first season but I did wonder if this was because he was "their man". He will give them some spiel about young players and the future (which the fans buy hook line and sinker) which probably bought him time with owners who with the best will in the world know little about football. The moment is fast approaching though that they realise Rodgers and his ideas amount to magic beans.

My hope was that they'd just give up. They'd realise it was a step too far, into an unknown world and would focus their attentions on Baseball. They would stop putting money in and speculating and wait for someone to pay up, in the interim leaving them to decay further. What is quite funny about your other post about league finishing positions if pre FSG they finished in the top 5 every season in the previous 9. In the 5 years since they have come (and 1 year previous) they have had what looks likely to be 1 top 5 finish.

Whatever plan they had isn't really working and Liverpool are slowly going backwards. However bad it was under H & G will seem like paradise compared to what it might be like if FSG lose interest.

As part of this cost reduction process they'd need a manager who'd be willing to sell the club and fans down the river, keep his head down and toe the party line. Rodgers is the classic person for this and has a certain gift of the gab to reassure ignorant yanks about how things are to be done.

Unfortunately the above quotes seem to indicate they are not ready to go down the path of mediocrity just yet and are willing to roll the dice with another manager. I hope not.

"Liverpool’s season was on the line on Sunday, and I’m sorry to say it, the season’s over now."

then a few paragraphs later...

"Rodgers and his players can’t afford to relax now...The manager has to get into their heads, and get them into the mindset of winning their last six games."

Ha Ha Ha.

Thick as ****

Haha he's a lad that Aldo,salt of the earth.

For us, they're ideal owners. They haven't got the mega-money to sink into Liverpool (as an oligarch/sheikh would and provide a massive game changing boost), and they have the Kopites (with a few isolated grumbles) buying into their 'efficiently run business' mantra that will 'get them to where they want to go' eventually. It means they'll have Liverpool operating with non-elite mangers and players and hoping they can qualify for the CL and/or nick a domestic cup to keep the punters happy as they take care of the small matter of stadium redevelopment prior to a future sale.

I fear FSG will leave sooner rather than later. The next owners are likely - with CL football consistently secured under a new manager and a stadium reconstructed - to have much deeper pockets, and then we will have to worry.
