Who's your money on in the takeover 'battle'?

[Bazlar]

My view of the stadium is spot on: design flawed; location and backdrop sensational.

Very much this

Its very similar to when the FSG bought Liverpool .The Reds I knew were pretty much split , some worried about the asset stripping reputation of a big franchise & some very much relieved as administration was very close.
It took a little time & restructuring but I'm sure they are happy with the outcome.

A matter of weeks ago we were getting bought by cowboys saddling the club with enormous debts , would snap your hands off for this outcome .

It’s all because of Klopp. They were close to mutiny before Klopp came to their rescue.

Shut up Dave.

….sshh, he never mentioned the glorious Dock Wall.

How did it turn out mate ?

Weirdly, the closest I’ve come to having a club I follow in Italy is Roma back in the early 2010s.

Simulation

All part of the Matrix, my friend.

I know all of this. I find it hard to believe there are no names attached to it, hence I doubt it was a serious bid.

I've been involved with deals between manufacturers and buyers running at hundreds of millions, some of those manufacturers don't know who's paying for the product until the last few months of 3/4 year project. It's not unusual.

Always be more suspicious of the shouty ones, they're usually less serious.

like I say, Klopp carried the entire club for almost a decade and they enjoyed stability and success on the pitch which will probably make any owner look good.

That lot were protesting and demanding for change just like us when things were terrible on the pitch.

Have you been to see it Dave?

All the drones are great and the vids and pictures, but when you see it, you wont consider it flawed, in any way.

Its no Allianz, but she is still beautiful.

And besides, its not a Stadium yet, its a building project.

Goodison at 1 point was just a building project, Stadiums are made by the games that are played in it.

I've been there loads of times.

I agree with your last sentence, but I'm just not overly fussed on the design. I think it would have been a far different looking (more futuristic) stadium if the club hadn't been shackled by the likes of Historic England to 'fit in' down at the docks.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Will Friedkin have any idea what state the club is in financially until he does due diligence?

We are talking ownership here , Hicks & Gillet were making a right pigs ear of it & almost forcing the club into administration.

They had a plan in place & provided finance and they had the nouse to hire Klopp.

So I would say they got it very right.

I wouldn't mind half of what FSG done for that lot.

Walls, Windmills, never get built, spot on mate

Are the walls and a turbine attached to the stadium?

If not, I hope he's sitting down..

You would have thought so the way you were moaning about them.

Im sure it will evolve over time.

Its just a wall, it cant stay up forever.
