Of course self interest plays a massive part in all this . I think the question is whether that self interest also coincides with the greater good of the game here.

Given the way the Sky cash and Russian money laundering has distorted the PL over the few decades any attempt to prevent Saudi Arabia buying up clubs and poaching players with eye watering offers is to be welcomed 

 

The sad thing is pretty much all club ownership (certainly in this country) is far from ideal. And for me if our owners suddenly want to stop sovereign ownership, it's because they think there's something in it for them. You're right, sometimes they'll make a decision to line their own pockets which happens to be for the good of the game. But the point is that's never the reason they make it. Because they don't care, as Tom Hicks told us many years ago, we're no different to Weetabix to these people.

I totally agree. The problem is the low bar now set due to the ownership in football over the last couple of decades. Not just in the PL either. While I have always thought 90+ pro clubs in one country is way too many anyhow the demise of lower clubs such as Bury and the ownership circuses around other Football League clubs saddens me deeply. Tribalism aside,I am a football fan and it's the game I love.

Ah that's where we differ. I'd happily see Everton and United go to the wall. And I don't watch any football except our games nowadays. Load of shit.

They might not be here much longer anyway if this incredibly reliable source is correct.

 

 

Now they get paid to tweet they've become even worse these fuckers. Shit stirring for attention.

He's as reliable, or unreliable, whichever way you to want to put it, as the next idk..... 

 

He makes for funny reading though..... I'll give him that

£35m per year for 3 commercial deals in a couple of months is impressive.

He doesn't say per year, I'd guess that that's the total contract value of all 3 combined over the duration of the contracts.

I hate UPS. Shit cunts couldn’t even notify me of some trainers they tried to deliver today. 
 

DPD are the best / least worst at deliveries.

My bad.

 

Still, not many clubs get that for a kit deal, never mind a couple of commercial partners.

 

Apart from City of course.

As the LFC announcement says, if it pays down debt - AXA & Anfield redevelopment, repurchase of Melwood, transfer amortisation - Shirley, that’s as a positive? 

[JohnnyH]

Fantastic news.  Delays us becoming some horrific State play thing a bit longer.  

[TD_LFC]

That's my afternoon sorted, to twitter to watch all those Liverpool accounts with Qatari flags having a meltdown.

 

[John102]

As the club with the 3rd largest revenue in world football last year, if this investment can keep our heads above the water and the balance sheet healthy, praise be to Dynasty Equity.

 

It is disappointing to learn that another of Indy's exclusives have failed to come to pass.

[Mudface]

But... there were multiple Qatari sources.

All we need to know about the Dynasty investment is "This has nothing to do with Dallas".

No surprise after we brought in Alexis over the summer.

Yeah, I'm inclined to agree with that.

 

That outcome may be an inevitability but I'd rather support us for a few more years first.

Well without the likes of Everton,United or whoever,there'd be no Liverpool either. I too,only watch Liverpool now but we need well run clubs for the game to prosper. But to me 'well run' is not through immoral and filthy lucre it's by being part of and contributing to the game as a whole for the benefit of your fans and wider community. A European Super League is not the answer because the current one stinks,it's a whole new outlook needed.
