60 million fans in China

thats what the commentator said on the stream I was watching.
IF we havent already done so,  we need to  get a load of superstores over there immediately selling official gear.
the next bit you have to  use your imagination.............

imagine IF all those fans spent something in the new superstores over there and LFC only made a fiver profit per person per season.................. ............

300 million quid a year.
even if it was only 2 quid profit..............



how many  fans do we have around the globe?
global superstores.....
untold income.
just  imagine it people, the untapped riches waiting for this club if its done properly just  from fans alone, never mind sponsors/corporate etc.

Dont worry mate Ian Ayre is on it!

Yes assuming there is no demand for fake LFC products...

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact,
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love LFC till I die.

lets seriously hope so Danny.

I heard the same thing on the ESPN commentary, sure it wasn't 16 million? Despite China having like a billion people living there.

Thats the biggie for me. Fake products in Asia is a huge deal. A lot of the Chinese havent got a pot to piss in so its difficult for them to buy the official merchandise. In saying that, there is money to be made there though.

But as Bob Dylan once said ''The Times They are a Changing'', the West are no longer the power they once were as the pendulum swings in favour of the far East in terms of global monopolies, Countries such as India, China, South Korea, Malaysia, the Russians etc will hold all the cards, the West is fu**ed because of the decades of corporate greed, cheap labour = vast profits, thats why this country has been stripped of its industry and the U.S is following suit.

Not going to go into a politcal debate but basically thats whats happening throughout the Western world.

There will always be folk without a pot to piss in as you say, but depending on your countries standard of living, will depend on how many pots there are.

I was interested to hear Ian Ayre comment that they would sell cheaper alternatives over there as the football club also believe the Chinese would struggle to afford the replica shirts etc.

I sure hope Katie was singing about 9 million Liverpool FC branded bicycles in Beijing.

Defo.  Ian Ayre  is all over it !

 

This is what Everton fans dont get about us. They go on about the money we spend but its for reasons like this sort of Fanbase that we can. They will never have the world wide acclaim and support base we have and thats a fact.

Theres an reason we have this support from scandanavia, asia and the rest of the world and its great to see. Just glad parry isnt there now so we can actually make some money from it!!!!!

That's why Liverpool is the biggest club in the world.

^^
don't forget the biggest, supportive, passionate, dedicated, loyal, vocal and understanding fanbase in the world also!

Dont worry mate Ian Ayre is on it!

aye, if anyone's got their finger on the pulse about expanding globally, it's mr ayre. i for one believe he'll do it without selling out as well

Thay can get a copy of a LFC shirt over there for a single dollar

Whether it's 16 or 60 million, that still a heck of a lot of people!

60 million LFC fans in China, the same as London's population. The whole of London supports us

The whole of London supports us

No, thats manures fan base.

I must protest, think you got London confused with Kent & Surrey. Everytime I'm out that way it's full of wannabe Manc scumbags.

More like the UK's population.
