RedRoadEnd

25 or under

preferably prem proven but will gamble on top talent

willing to pay for quality.

 

IN:

 

Carroll - 22, English

Suarez - 23 Uruguayan

 

Out:

 

Babel 24 Dutch (never quite made it)

Torres 27 Spanish (need I say more?)

 

Potential targets:

 

Young - 25 English (right on the cusp but already prem proven so 5 years is not overreaching the service we'd be expecting)

 

Richards - 22 English (Could be one of the best cbs in the World if anyone ever bothers to play him there again. I believe we would have)

 

Adam - 25 (again on the cusp but to some degree prem proven and wouldn't need to adapt).

 

These are all smart moves. We needed to start again and we have and I for one love the new direction this club is being taken in.

 

The potential outlay for these players was a minimmum of 44 million quid,.

 

FSG mean business.

THe NESV way:-

1 Identify assets to strip.

2 Unsettle them, tell lies and set up a smear campaign in the media.

3 Dont spend any of the fans money. Infact, cut wages and make a profit. Blame it on the legends you are hounding out.

4Get cheaper replacments with some of the cash.

5 PLant mugs on the Net, to applaud the outrage.

replaced by a tv thats beats up women, involved in fights with teammates, glassing people, spent more time on the front pages rather than the backpages

Exactly. And NESV's lie campaign vs Nando was shocking. They saw Abramobitch's cash and got a boner.

PS u can add in a bit of Lee Bowyer style racism.

I predicted Hodgson would be out by Nov when he joined. OK he was out in Jan ( no thanks to NESV)

I wonder if Carroll will last 2 yrs. This stinks as much as Hicks.

Hmm, I thought I'd gone to hell when was Nando was painted as the bad guy. And NESV kicked him out to get 50 m odd ... and a guy who doesnt really score in the Championship.

311-Never Forget

Anyone actually thought this is exclusively NESV dodging a net spend. And Comolli as their lackey?

My gut feeling about this whole Carrol thing is really not good. Hopefully I'm wrong, has happened many times before.

 

IF he doesn't cut it here due to off the field problems, due to lack of motivation to play for us, due to not being suited to our style of play, due to simply not being a 35 mill player or whatever we definately will not recover much of the money. Let's first of all see if he wants to move to Merseyside or at least closer. Will be a sign of things to come.

Its like selling the Mona LIsa. Telling gaumless tourists that Leondardo called them cunts. Then filling the gallery with stuff from BBC's Art Attack.

Girl batterer?

Captain ZeroNet-Spend?

Roy's Topchoice?

Am I the only one that feels like we may have perverted the values of our club?

Clearly the NESV pr machine has been in overdrive. Acc to them, Nando is the Devil, and the Americans are true Reds, who just "accidentally" didnt spend any of the fans money on transfers again this yr.

The truth always comes out eventually.

I guess thats our "marquee signing" done then... :whatever:

Part 2 - some other time maybe

Part 3

I'll call it " Liverpool's 311"

Everyone( supposedly) remembers where they were when 911 happened.

I wonder if everyone will remember where they were when 311 happened.

The combined media machines of Sky, NESV AND Abramovich made a good red outto be the vilain.

His crime? Telling them to pull their finger out and start rebuilding the squad.

Henry sells the last Crown Jewel and some of the mugs on here are applauding it.

Does what even Tom Hicks never had the neck to try.

Sad times, some sad "supporters". And now a sad shadow of the club it once was.

1977 to 2011. The moment this atrocity is announced, I am not longer a Liverpool supporter. Enjoy Carroll, he makes Barton look like Gary Lineker. But yeah, paint Nando as the villain.

Strange thread...

 

We are living within our means, we've received (or soon to receive) £56m in transers this month, we're likely to spend £57m. Thats only £1m of the likely £15-£20m we were going to spend.

 

.

And they're paying people to go on the Net and applaud. NESV did what Hicks NEVER had the neck to do.

In other news today, the Louvre Paris has sold the Mona Lisa to an unnamed Russian crook. The Louvre have announced they are replacing it with 26 of Rolf's Harris's greatest works. And some really good stuff produced send in by a 9 year old to BBC's Art Attack. And some diahorrea supplied by Damien Hurst

311 - The day Liverpool Football Club suffered its WORST atrocity?

PS check up on the type of guy Carroll is, before you roll out the red carpet.

"Isn't it great to be getting 50m for a player" "Liverpool is back". :whatever:

Ok thanks for that, now tell your friends back at NESV, not all of us are complete and utter mugs.

I'm utterly ashamed to be a Liverpool Sports Franchise fan. Infact, when Torres has been forced out due to NESV being rumbled, I will knock it all on the head.

Fans applauding the Club's own execution. Led along by NESV's pr monkeys. What a joke.

Fans ARE being robbed. By so-called "owners". If Nando leaves its solely down to NESV and co. The truth will emerge eventually. But by that time, people will be swallowing a whole new set of lies.

That site is such bullshit. The Earth is infact SEVEN thousand years old. Because thats the exact age of Bruce Forsyth. And the omitted chapters of the bible confirm that.

I thought some of you might want to read this. Call it my "Liverpool Reminiscences" or something like that.

Its a bit rough round the edges, and its only part I of 3 or so parts. But I thought I'd post it now. Jan 31 2011 seems to be a real crossroads in the history/ future of this Club/ team/ whatever it should be called these days.

PS I haven't checked the Torres situation for an hour or so!!

My Liverpool Journey - Part I

I’ve been a diehard supporter basically since I was a baby. From the European Cup finals of 77 and 78 right up until…. Sort of today.

In that time we’ve gone from a regional club punching above its weight, to a global mega-name. I’ve been thinking about what made my club so special.And whats changed over the years.

As far as I can remember it was the stars, the type of football. We never seemed to lose the ball. And our stars were stars who’d want to stay for life. The Club existed solely as a football club. We’d never dream of selling Dalglish. And when Keegan was sold, well ALL the money went on one player. Even when we were the “lepers of Europe” during the Heysel ban, Rushie was sold and then bought back a year later. In addition to the 2 worldclass players we’d bought in the meantime. None of this “lets spend 10% here, 12% on this , and 7 other also-ran players who are such and such’s rejects.

I loved the fact everyone envied us. It was OTHER clubs who’d lose their players to us. Chelsea were a WHOLE DIVISION below us. We had 6 or 7 players whod walk into any team in the World, every year.

It wasn’t just that. It was the fact we were a club, a community. Like one big charity, we all wanted it to succeed. A new deal for the club, was a new deal for us all. If we wanted to see the team, we just turned up. And for a kid it was about a quid. No priority ticket schemes, no £125 for some sandwiches in a greenhouse and a seat in the Anfield Rd End.

Then there was the atmosphere. We really WERE the most knowledgeable. None of the poison and lies spawned by the Sxn and Sky. No internet muppets demanding “Paisley out” or “Fagan has lost the plot”. The ground was packed full of real fans, not the sort who’d boo an injured Torres for being “lazy” in not winning a Hodgson inspired Carragher hoof up field.

Ownership of the Club was so different. Infact you didn’t own it, you “were” it. You bought stuff because you knew you’d get the benefit back. The shareholders weren’t the type who’d talk shite about “value returns”, “asset growth” or any of that rubbish. This was a football club. People clubbing together for ONE purpose. A prestigious and successful team, to be envied round the World.

And if you really wanted a paper share in the Club, you just bought one. In any case, our key shareholders weren’t the type of parasites who owned shares to make money.”Profit” wasn’t just an obscene word, it was UTTERLY irrelevant to a football club. Our directors were statesmen. People with dignity, class and honesty. They wanted exactly what we wanted.

The managers were the same. Shankly and Paisley had normal 3 bed semis near Melwood. Even thoough they were amongst the biggest names in the World’s greatest game. They didn’t do it because it looked “cool”, like Eric Cantona did. It was because alongside their god-given talent, they were humble down to Earth people. They wouldn’t say to people “bugger off an support Chelsea” if someone didn’t like parasitic American owners ( unlike today’s tin god from up the East Lancs…)

On the playing side, we had the superstars, and I mean half the team were. But again, they were approachable, normal people for the most part. Gary Gillespie drove round in a Ford Sierra, complete with club sponsors written on the side, as I remember. Jermaine Pennant, on the other hand, (a thoroughly crap player, I might add), forgets he even HAS a Porsche Turbo…

Ofcourse between 1977 and the 80s, football changed. And between the 80s and 2011, it has changed so much more again. But that’s for later.

We've become a footballing equivalent of a horror film.

Gutted. Should he go, I'm fully aware I'll eventually turn optimistic, adopt the (correct) "no-one is bigger than the club" mantra .

That was true when we were winning European Cups, and having a big net spend every year.

Not so true when you're fighting relegation, and David Ngog is your "star" striker.

The Lpool way used to be "2nd is nowhere" ( and that was for Europe too).Nowadays, we're told FIFTH is nowhere...

Be honest, most of our fans outside the city(many inside it too) were attracted by Keegan+Toshack, Dalglish +Rush, Barnes +Fowler, Nando, whoever.

Thats what separates what was a global club like Liverpool and Barcelona from a pile of shite like Everton, Crystal Palace or Villa.

Not only is asset stripping Nando footballing suicide, its commercial suicide too. Purslow, fuck off and die, and stop pissing around with our club.

'This is a rumour aint been told by any itk, saying Torres has realised he's fucked up big time his agent has been like a fly in his ear saying lies broken promises and no champo throw a transfer request in and they'll accept, and its back fired big time as kenny has said he aint going anywhere he's pissed off with his agent and has been talking to kenny and might sign a new contract. fingers crossed'

 

Got that off OTK from a lad who mentioned a similar rumour about a transfer request a few hours before it was confirmed. Don't believe it like but seems like the ideal situation for us.

There's no such thing as "coincidence". Nando had to put pressure on the Yanks to rebuild.And quite rightly so - as we saw what the last Yanks were about, didnt we?

Scumball Purslow thought "sell Torres by pretending he wanted to leave after Suarez was announced, the fans will bay for his blood if I spin it enough and get Kenyon's support".

The sooner that slimey bastard Cecil is no longer "advising" the clueless tightwad Yanks, the better.

Simple solution is put Skysports editor, Kenyon and Purslow on a burning pyre.

Henry, Comolli and Werner to await full trial.

This club's turned pretty shit when u believe the "word" of Christian Turdslow over Nando.

I think he is gone. Now or in the summer we will sell him. We will get decent dough for him so who can replace him?

 

Hulk- bit ill tempered

Llorente- rumours are that he has agreed to join Real Madrid in the summer

Aguero- Not in the same class as Torres but 22

 

Or should we spunk the money on the likes of Hazard and Lukaku?

 

He has broken our hearts, he is no longer a red. They have as big a rebuilding job as us. Hope the Financial Fair Play fucks them over.

What utter tripe. Are you Christian Purslow?

Who can replace him? NOBODY.

The 2 biggest names in football are Nando and Ronaldo.

Messi is a great player, but he's not the Beckham type icon a big club has.

I don't think people realise how big a name he is. The big clubs have the icons. Imagine Liverpool of the 80s without Lawrenson, Hansen, Souness, Dalglish, Rush.

Imagine Liverpool of the 2000s without Torres, Mascherano, Alonso and Gerrard.

Nando's the good guy in all this. Not Henry, Comolli, Kenyon, the agents etc.

Torres sale = a statement of the death of LFC as a major club.

Open your eyes. The club isnt complicit in this.

 

The only smell is your breath cos you're talking out your arse.

 

Now fuck off.

Yes thats right. We've got decent honest Americans. Just like lovely Tom & George were. Look how selfish some people are, stopping them buying nice new yachts and mansions. And Chelsea are a bastion of morality, who'd never dream of stirring up shit and lies in the press. :whistle:

I am now ashamed to be a Liverpool supporter.

Ignorant gullible "fans" blaming a decent man and a great Red, Fernando Torres.

Instead they believe American morons, shitstirrers from Chelsea, and the gutter media.

As for this club/ "franchise", does Pepe get an award for the "last star remaining".

I'm gonna burn my scarf and send it to John Henry.

Touché.

 

 

 

And there you have it. G&H's purchase (and subsequent financial rape) of this club more or less coincided with Fernando's arrival. We were on the way up, had a strong team and some very good players. We were back in the top of European football and had just been in our second CL final in three seasons. But the rumblings had already begun right after the final in Athens, rumblings that ended in open warfare at the club. We know the rest.

 

Liverpool FC of today is far away from the club Torres signed for. He's waited three years and more than delivered on the pitch. And now he's on his way out.

 

Thank you, Moores and Parry.

JUst 4 of the sales:-

Masch 22m, Keane 19m, Nando 50m?, Xabi 30m?

TOTAL 122m

IN Poulsen, Mereiles, Ngog(?), nobody.

Its not a football club. Its a horror filmI don't know why I even post. So many spineless mugs as supporters are the root cause.

Just heard that torres has falen out with gerrard and carragher and anoher one of the many reasons tha torres has looked to push this move through, this would explain the celebrations everyone was talking about where gerrard ignored torres and vice versa also if you remember at the star of the season when carra was shouting a torres and he put his finger to his lip telling him to sssh.

 

the lad hat told me has been bang on so far knew bout the suarez deal and abou torres wanting to leave.

Carragher's just a useless footballer with big mouth and an eye on management these days. Gerrard and his ego are a pain up the arse too.

Sell those muppets and make Nando captain. Oh and BUY SOME FUCKING PLAYERS!!

Sometimes I think this isnt Liverpool FC, its Christian Purslow FC.

Sell Torres and the Championship ie relegation is a VERY likely prospect. And frankly, without Torres I couldnt give a fuck. Let the greedy Yank parasites come a cropper like the last ones did.

Did we pay up for Suarez to replace Torres or convince him to stay?

Torres tried to force their hand to make a respectable Suarez bid, as is only fair. He realised they were full of utter shite in promising to improve.

He desperately wants to stay and see LFC successful.

Now the corporate pigs at NESV are working with Chelsea to smear him, turn the fans vs him, and pocket the cash, so there's another net window transfer profit.

So many fans are like fools, a likely Turdslow inspired plan is currently working.
