I used to think the same but even being poor on the pitch has not stopped the amount of fans who turned up in Australia and Thailand. More fans turned up to watch Liverpool than Chelsea the double European champions so we seem to be an outlier. According to the experts the next tv deal will be even higher. I thought the bubble would burst 10 yrs ago but the demand is still growing. So what I'm saying is they have still have several years of milking the cow and success does not seem to determine the sponsorship deals as our deals match fairly to teams in the c/l. A widely watched English league and the romance of the 5times and 18 times seems to keep global fans and sponsors happy. You only have to sell people the dream that you can compete and that seems to go a long way. All they have to do is keep us on the edge of c/l qualification and if Suarez and Rodgers drag us there then it is a bonus. As you say Hicks & Gillett must be kicking themselves for not having better pr and the credit crucnch killing their chance to refinance.

If Henry and Werner took a shit on some peoples lawn they would be thanking them and talking about how radiant the grass would be and how it is in the long term interests of their garden.

DONUT AIRLINES ‏@ManhattanDoc Here you go. A fucking bingo sheet for tomorrow's shite. Good bingo sheet but he forgot cunning men from the East who refuse to sell, you have to admire us we are far more ingenius than just a failed medical.

Agents say a lot of things they have a vested interest. I always find that it helps to agree terms with the seller if I want to buy anything. I guess it does not matter they have failed to buy one player in this window so everything else is just playing the blame game and the ultimate failure is of the owners of Liverpool.

Did we bid 150000001 we all know how that shit plays out.

Monkey and organ grinder come to mind.

It gets better sounds like the deal was never ever close. Ben Smith ‏@BenSmithBBC 3m #LFC had an agreement with Konoplyanka. Owner of FC Dnipro refused to sign the paperwork

I assume Ben Smith is talking about Henry and Werner. Ben Smith ‏@BenSmithBBC 1m Ian Ayre is an easy target. Collapse of this particular deal was not his fault. He was dealing with an impossible owner

So hoow are we spinning this, failed medical blaming agents or we didnt want to overpay etc etc.

I think it will get done but they will have to overpay or not have it on the terms they want. Because that is what you get for trying to be smart and end up negioating on the 31st day of the window false economy. Doesnt exactly leave you in a strong position to dictate terms etc.

A few special words from the gaffer. Brendan Rodgers okay ‏@brendanrodgrsok 20s Do it for the supporters, this means the world to them. Do it for yourself. Do it for the group. And, for goodness sake, do it for Lucas.

Let's hope Werner hasnt told him we will get some players in the draft. Gillett’s favourite phrase, when Benitez tried to pin him down on his transfer budget was: “I'll give you £50million plus whatever we get in the draft”, which was so nonsensical it almost had Benitez butting walls. He answered one transfer budget request by telling Benitez he’d spotted a new running machine in America, and perhaps if he got one it would improve the players he already had.

They will need to be quick as he is on his way to Inter apparently, 28 going for around 15 million euros cant see it happening at all.

Gianluca Di Marzio ‏@dimarzio 16m #Mitroglou is set to join @FulhamFC: €14M to Olympiakos and four year contract for the geek striker. They need more than a geek striker to stay up.
