      Why Liverpool Didnt Buy Duff
      Jul 30, 2006 09:13:00 am
      This is from todays Mirror

      Quote
      Liverpool offered Chelsea £1.5m more than Newcastle but they still couldn't land Damien Duff.
      So Why didn't Duff move to Anfield?
      The answer lies in the fact that Chelsea dont do business with Liverpool. It seems that the decision was taken at the highest level inside Stamford Bridge, as it was several months ago when Shawn Wright Phillips was coveted at Anfield. In the eyes of the Chelsea hierarchy, Newcastle aren't real rivals at the moment but Liverpool undoubtedly are"


      I feel good now Chelsea are running scared of Rafas Red Men :D

      This is a paragraph from the liverpool echo's chris bascombe on tuesday july 25.

      Liverpool first approached birmingham 3 weeks ago when the alves deal reached a dead end.  The reds hoped allowing themselves to be linked with damien duff late last week might prompt pennant to hurry birmingham into listening to offers, it backfired somwwhat when duff sigend for newcastle claiming he'd turned liverpool down, he never got the chance to and probably never would have but the link was as much liverpools making as it was chelseas.

      Chelsea running scared of you bunch of losers? that's the biggest load of bull**** i've ever heard!! we'd still kick your sorry asses wether you bought duff or not.

      The fact of the matter is wether Chelsea do business with Liverpool or not is imaterial. You only have to look at the stats to see why Chelsea aren't running scared.

      Premiership League points.
      2005 - 2006
      Chelsea 91 - Liverpool 82

      2004 - 2005
      Chelsea 95 - Liverpool 58

      2003 - 2004
      Chelsea 79 - Liverpool  60

      The fact is even if we gave you a 15 point lead we'd still win the premiership!!  we've done it twice back to back n we're easily do it again. Yes i thinkit will be very close this year and far tougher than last season, Newcastle look very strong, as do yourselves but I think we've learned from losing out on the CL 2 seasons in a row that we needed to strenghten our squad dramaticaly.

      Foxy your not that gobs***e of the telly are you, you brainless chavski beaut.

      What does your Russian owner want to win badly this season, that the MIGHTY REDS OF EUROPE have won five f***in times already!!!

      Even fergie knows that your piece of sh*t club needs to win this trophy
      that is why he is banking on your lot taking their eye off the prize during the season.

      You cannot even be regarded as being great or creating a dynasty without winning this trophy, which might explain why LIVERPOOL and for that matter Man Utd are regarded as still the two biggest teams in England.

      Which might explain why us and the mancs have fans worldwide

      Your club is simply known now for havin a rich russian owner

      NO CLASS NO STYLE and NO HISTORY!!!!

      Question: Can you remember the last time your team was relegated?

      Clue: At a guess I would say late eighties, whereas my mighty reds have to go way back to end of the fifties

      Your nothing but a gloryhunter foxy, bet you supported both Arsenal and Man Utd during the 90's   :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:

      nice one huyton red. all i can add is that there is an intersting statistic published in the times GAMES supplemnet 7 days back.

      they have worked out that chelsea can only equal liverpools colourful success if they maintain above 90 points every season for the next 25 yrs.

      i think that puts things into perspective.
