The comments to this. Bet not one has been to Anfield and have only been supporting for 7 years

I read that as agreeing with us?

ah sorry ignore you were referring to the comments.

Fair play to them

I see the kopites have let the mask slip after less than 24 hours of outrage.

As soon as we dropped that statement, it's back to the usual point scoring nonsense from Big Red:

Surely the bigger issue is that Lucas Digne just did get a new contract. We've just committed to paying him £100k a week for the next 4 years, so if the income drops significantly one year into that, we're deep in the doodoo. It's all very well saying it'll settle down a couple of years, but it might not be very easy to get through those years, particularly with a wage bill like ours and no guarantees of matchday income any time soon.

Yup obviously this is a problem and where the rocky few years comes in. If everyone is dealing with the same problem though then it should kind of balance itself out.

Just to clarify I am only say this to point out that football can and will survive without these parasites. I don't want it to happen or anything!

When your best reply to what my son would call "true facts" is to accuse the other side of inciting factionalism and division, but you're the side that's come out of the smoke-filled back rooms and inserted the knife, a normal person would look into the mirror and question.

Agreed - Perez said it's binding last night; if that is shown to be incorrect it could well be over.

I'd be surprised if they are all tied in.

I would imagine it will be tiered, and some teams could be tied in more than others if that makes sense.

If UEFA/FIFA follow through on their threats to effectively outlaw the ESL and their players, it won't be a particularly exciting prospect for players. They'll miss out on World Cups, continental championships and genuine football careers. It could quickly become a home for pre-retirement players and mercenaries.

Which again, lowers the value of the Super League and raises the value of the others - nobody will watch it without the best players playing.

I hate them but the match going Reds, for the most part, have backed us

Some haven't, and they're scabs

Socialist in the sheets, but Tories really, are the Crimson Fear

Who will they put in place of Shankly statue? Rockefeller?

 

[Tin-Tin]

All these comments from Liverpool 'fans' you can honestly see who the actual fans are and the 'customers' who the owners and SL are targeting.

Its like a internal battle for the identity of these historic clubs.

 

[Encoder]

Lots of fans of other clubs seem quite well informed on the hypotheticals and intentions of our notoriously private owners. Quite impressive really.

 

[Martin Alvito]

It's all about winning over there, and losing has no consequence.

What do you get if you're crap in the States? The best picks or the best trades (since you have the best picks).

The model works for those US Sports, but it doesn't work over here and never, ever will.

The problem with our model is that the absolute worst thing you can do is be mediocre. Be exceptional, or exceptionally dismal. 8-8, .500...those are for suckers.

Lets hope they are tied in mate - our best chance since 1992 to actually become a top club again except we wont be ran with the arrogance of the "top 6".
