      Don't think I've ever said that.

      Despite the media hype there was no danger of the club going into administration.

      The holding company that "owned" the club was in deep sh*t.

      Nevertheless, we didn't have buyers queuing up, did we.

      Never said you did.

      Three buyers lined up is a little bit more than no buyers!!

      Dude, so is your F***ing defence of FSG...😂

      Of course it is, every one of the NESV stooges repeats parrot fashion the same facts and figures supplied by accountants which has exactly nothing of any consequence with what this forum, the supporters or the actual club stands for!

      It is to divert attention from the real aims of the owners, the ESL fiasco showed how much our owners know and appreciate the game and the club's traditions and history; unbelievably the aforesaid stooges have made encouraging remarks about a badly thought out proposal which the owners themselves apologised for.

      Stooges by name etc etc.

      Rather a simplistic view since Broughton had to find a buyer to fulfill certain conditions put in place by the bank.

      Maybe you'd be happier if Hicks had managed to sack Broughton and put his relatives on the board.

      Hicks literally couldn't. Broughton was installed as chairman by the bank due to how much in debt H & G were.

      As opposed to constantly just repeating that the owners don’t spend their own money

      Where does that come into the “what the club,supporters and forum stands for”

      The facts and figures are mentioned when you constantly drivel on about money spent and when someone questions the validity of the accounts when trying to suggest that money is being syphoned out to put into the pockets of shareholders

      Of course the facts and figures have a consequence to fans - that’s how football works these days



      In the past Liverpool as I grew up sold players and used the funds to buy other players


      Keegan sold - Kenny arrived

      Rush sold - Barnes , Beardsley arrived


      Current owners do that and you accuse them


      Did you do the same when the owners did it in the 70’s and 80’s

      You are either clueless , a hypocrite or on a wind up

      Arab based I think, name was never disclosed. But definitely three and of them the home team of Broughton, Easy Rider and Cuban Heels thought FSG were best bet.

      I thought they only had two actual confirmed bids who showed they could have the money

      The difference being the times you refer to were the most successful in the club's history, under the tenure of two managers, as opposed to 4 under NESV with one major trophy.,

      So F**k off stooge with your unfounded criticism.

      FSG, Peter Lim and an arab guy trying to pull a PR stunt?

      He didn't have the money, it was all bullshit.

      So we're left with Lim and FSG.

      Like I said, they weren't queuing around the F***ing block.

      I know, that's why I said "if Hicks had managed to sack Broughton".

      It was a judge who decided he couldn't, not the bank.

      What’s wrong - avoiding it once again


      You said we won one major trophy with FSG


      You constantly drivel on about the owners not investing in the team and only “selling to buy”

      Back in the 70’s we sold Keegan and bought Kenny

      We then sold Rush and bought Barnes and Beardsley.

      The club have always worked to some level of self sufficent

      Yet you cry like a pr**k daily about the owners not spending money - is that how the club is - money money money

      It was a judge who decided the sale could go ahead, Broughton was already chairman at that point, installed by the bank!!

      There is no comeback from the fact the owners have put no more capital into the club than the initial buy out sum.

      When it's all said and done it ends on this.

      Give me all your little spreadsheets and excel documents but at the end of it all they've not put no more money in.

      All these accusations of me being a secret manc, bitter etc why don't we do this....

      A mod can investigate me and see if I'm truly a lifelong Liverpool fan and the mods can investigate Lallana In Pyjamas and see if he works, or has any ties, to FSG.

      Sounds good to me
