if.....did he?

where in my comment do you see a preference for debt repayments.

Hicks and Gillette should not be the comparison for benchmark purposes. Other well run and succesfull clubs should be the comparison.

Doesn't take a spreadheet to add babel's fee Torres fee and subtract from what was spent.. Mancs kept winning because we weren't progressive enough.

Here we go again what? The owners are only being judged against Hicks and Gillette not against what proper owners would do. Even Moores freed up money for transfers. They had to buy a striker they had no other choice. Far Far to early in their reign to judge them one way or another. Everyone seems to believe that they have spent a future - they haven't...

it was reported net spend was in the region of 1.8m - way to early to start an appreciation thread on these guys

Good - average at best game passed him by in first half- not a LFC player,

Oh please no

The size of the transfer budget will be key to attracting the right manager

Totally agree - their knowledge gap is inhibiting progress. A strong CEO appointment is vital, together with cash injection.

as a fan it's impossible to be disappointed with a win.

There are Irish people on this site, be respectful

He is used to loosing, and getting the odd win here and there - probably a bit more with us as the team is a little bit better than what he is used to. The problem we have at the moment is that we have owners who do not know anything about football (check John Henry's profile on twitter) and no CEO. Another season is over before Christmas -again. We can only have hope for the next one. The rot started along time ago and it will take the new owners a long time to bring back the glory days, if they can. They are on a steep learning curve in a foreign country and a foreign game. It's a global game why oh why could not one of the best supported teams in the world find buyers who actually have watched, played, supported the game????

which is?

eh....so?

The model much played by Share Liverpool FC seems to carry its own risks: Extent of Barcelona's debt revealed by fresh audit A new audit into Barcelona's finances have revealed the club's debt is 442m euros (£369.5m) after a loss of more than 77m euros (£64.36m) last season My link

The past is the past it's this season that matters and we've taken a huge step backwards. Unless there's a huge capitulation by Arsenal this season we will finish below them and if not entirely careful out of teh champions league spot which is all we have left to play for

spot on - it's down to the style of the manager Wenger attacks to win - Rafa frustates teams to win, he needs to shrug off the inferior complex he has about so called bigger teams.

scorelines win matches, this is not a team in transition, it's meant to be the finished article. BTW it's Wolves we were playing,

a well written post with some good replies. I think it sums up the sentiment of genuine Liverpool fans - torn with loyalty for the manager, players etc and genuinely trying to make sense of the current situation. I agree with Chewie's post and like him would love to be prooved wrong. We all do have a soft spot for Rafa but for how long. Last night was just another in a long list of lows this season and with all due respect to Wolves - it was just Wolves a very ordinary team

maybe, maybe not. But for sure Rafas i where he is until the end of the season, maybe more. That should be accepted and lets all just get on with it. The whole manager's situation story is a bit of a bore anyhow,

what ever anyone's feelings towards the owners, what Gillette said needed to be said. The papers, sky and every other commentator feels the need to have a go at Rafa. The end of the season is when that needs to happen not now. As fans during the season it should be about the team.

what does the membership buy and how is the money spent?
