This was on the LFC Transfer Speculations Facebook page. This is very strange. I was in the pub earlier on with a mate of mine, who is a Manchester United fan, and he actually told me this story. He himself admitted that it was very strange. Surely not a coincidence? Somebody has to latch on to this, because this is turning into a farce. Carries on, and it will probably turn into match fixing scandal. To be honest, I wouldn't be at all surprised.
