Liverpool fan on tour of the Not606 footy boards again. You lot are probably sick of me but I just couldn't miss you out. I had my fingers crossed that you would stay up but it wasn't to be. How's life on my 2nd fav board?
Afternoon Luvgonzo. We're keeping afloat, just. We are waiting to hear when/if the club has been successfully taken over by the WW Supporters' Trust and on what terms. We are doing exceptionally well retaining the players we wanted; all those offered contracts have signed, including some from the youth academy which, as you probably know, has been discontinued as not financially sustainable. There's a problem signing new players as we are faced with a transfer embargo due to a delay in submitting accounts; something that can't be done before the takeover is finalised. Once the takeover is finalised it will be a much happier place, despite the financial hardship we face. The bookies aren't optimistic about our chances this season but, as long as we can get onto a stable financial basis, I think we could accept dropping out of the league and having to fight our way back up again. Managing to stay in the league during this financial pressure will be a major bonus. It will be a relief to be rid of the current owner, who led us into this financial nightmare, and we will overcome whatever crises awaits. Tomorrow is the start of a new era.
Crazy days. I'm glad we were rescued from the Americans by umm, well more Americans. I'm happy with Rodgers as our new manager, looking forward to his brand of footy.
something i was discussing with a liverpool supporting friend, now redknapps been sacked do you wish liverpool had waited a bit longer and perhaps gone for him instead of rogers?
There's a thread on our board about it and not one of us would trade Rodgers for Redknapp (unless it was Louise). I'm not a fan of the guy, good motivator but tactically not so good.
