*Shakes head* Everton again.


Fugitive

Evertonians live their lives off rumours which is probably why this stadium is being dragged out longer than most shit soap opera plots.

 

Some blue I know said Fonseca is nailed on for next season but won't reveal who at the club has told him. He was nailed on in January apparently but Sam Allardyce sneaked in under the radar. Also reckons Allardyce will get sacked and Big Dunc will take over to inject a bit off passion into the team. Even though he just sits there gormless and stoned making Steve Bould look as energetic as Jurgen Klopp.

Steve0 reckons Firmino is on his way and we’re in the shit financially. Obsessed or what.

 

Yeah I've just read that, think he's definitely on his way.

 

Thing is their debt just by over £20m in the latest accounts (with the earlier equity conversion they have over £200m accounted for which doesn't actually belong to the club) and they haven't started to pay off the Big Stand yet. Even with the competitive rate they secured on the loan, the compound interest soon adds up if you don't pay promptly. 1.24% on a loan of £100m or so....well the maths is easy on that isn't it? It's FSG milking the club but their fans aren't renowned for their intelligence and haven't really noticed it. Most of them are still doing cartwheels over the equity conversion as it means the debt 'vanished'....apparently. Like i say, not the brightest.

 

They'd have to give Firmino a huge increase that they can't afford, especially as it'd result in teammates seeking the same sort of increases.

 

Their wage bill has already soared past the £200million mark. Even with the increase in revenues it's still turnover/wage bill ratio of around 70%. Put simply that isn't sustainable, even with CL football. It's why Coutinho left, they gave him a daft salary that a club of their size couldn't deal with.

 

Their situation is far more perilous than folk would have you believe.

Absolutely every single Liverpool fan can be classed as “not the brightest”...an isolated and defining characteristic of LFC supporters to a man.

 

That level of tribalism and sweeping generalisation is of course the hallmark of a cultured, worldly and intellectual human.

Don’t overlook the reason why we're "not the brightest" - it's because Liverpool fans, uniquely amongst football fans in this city, are deluded about the intentions of their owners.
