if we are lucky what will happen is some super rich man or group will come in,initially splash a couple hundred mill on players and what not just to get us back into title contention,get a stadium on the go,then ease back on the spending until eventually we won't need them(or him) to put any money in and we are at the stage where we can sustain ourselves at the top of the table and top of European competition.We need to be making as much money as is needed to keep us at the top with out sugar daddies having to constantly throw money at us.

 

having said all that i really don't give a damn if we ended as some super rich sugar daddy playing thing for awhile,it's not doing Chelsea any harm or city,once we are run properly we won't need to worry.

Thanks - that's interesting as I'm suspicious of the Rhone "interest". Any sensible buyer will wait until the RBS deadline and screw the yanks down tight.

 

I think a few people feel that the Rhone 'interest/bid' is a way of trying to bring the investors out of the shadows.

Is it really that close?!

 

According to a couple of ITK on TIA, the majority of the £100m has to be paid by the 6th of april and all accounts settled by July, had a feeling that might have been the case.

On another note 6th of April will be 3 years and 60 Days, from the cunts takeover, be Ironic if something big happens that day eh!

Going in to administration...how likely?

 

I am rather naive when it comes to these things, but would it not make sense for RBS to take control of the club and sell it to the highest bidder rather than put it into administration? Surely administration would always be the last option as loosing 9 points reduces any fee RBS could hope to recoup as it damages our Champions League prospects (well would finish them this year) and put us at a great disadvantage next season.

 

The club effectively runs itself in terms of income as last years figures show, but it is the interest rates these pricks are making us pay that is the killer.

Pointing to recent experience when the money made available to him has not been increased by qualification for the tournament, Benítez is not expecting any decrease to be implemented by Tom Hicks and George Gillett Jr, the club’s co-owners, should Liverpool fail to finish in the top four.

 

“They [Hicks and Gillett] told me before that it didn’t make a big difference,” Benítez said. “Every year that we have qualified for the Champions League it hasn’t made a big difference so if we don’t qualify this time, I don’t expect a big difference.

Same! I think he's basically taking the piss out of them now, which is good. Fuck knows what he'll come out with if he leaves.

In other news: The Pope does shit in the woods. (after he's finished burying the evidence of child rape by Irish priest's by the old oak tree, the one where they used to burn all the witches at, near the cave where he keeps the Nazi gold and his Hitler youth uniform, just across the way from the pond where he throws all the boxes of Condoms he denies the African Aids victims)

I wonder why Rafa would risk saying something like that and basically taking the piss out of them, unless he knows that they will be gone soon so why not just stick the knife in?!? Maybe I am clutching onto straws there!

 

Id guess hes just hoping they'll be gone soon. He'd know more than us most likely!
