The end of the Anfield Cash Cow

Ah good to see yet more friendly banter

Personally I reckon it's more a case of trimming the wage bill and getting rid of the dross, of which Liverpool have quite a lot at the moment. After all, if the nine or ten players Liverpool are trying to flog have average wages of £40k a week (given Joe Cole is on £90k a week that seems a fair average) then that could be around £25 million a year including employers NI. Given Liverpool's wages are almost as large as ours but their revenue is about 40% less, they are gonna need to shift some of that **** or it'll bleed them dry.

Still, it is funny to see this after the comments of certain Liverpool fans about "squad erosion" and "Portuguese tramps" and the like throughout last season

Well he did tell the world about his concerns over the wage bill and **** squad players just three months ago:

He never said that it's unlikely more signings will be made, only that it depends on how many make their way out.

We've already got rid of Konchesky, and I think we've paid off Jovanovic's contract. There is only another 4-5 players that are left to leave, but that could free up 300k in wages.

 

Swarbs you couldn't resist a little dig at certain Liverpool fans could you?!!

 

Sure you have said that the last few times. Stop talking bollocks.

 

Ah, but they dig their own graves with these comments. All you have to do is push them in afterwards

 

I would have thought you would have been used to it by now considering your hero KPR was a mod for a good few months...

 

Here he comes. Schools just finished.

 

OK. We could do with a few more lads to clean the boots.

 

You still here? I thought you just wandered on here aimlessly?

 

He said '

Meaning: I may be able to sign more players but it depends if I can sell any players.

Reality: Unless the deadwood can be given away, my squad will not be strengthened.

 

No it actually started to turn into a good debate, till you ****ing turned up.

I'm off. BYEEEEEE

 

Jovanovic makes a mean cup of tea!

 

Good. You can't debate for ****

(awaits feeble response anyway..)

 

Thanks Swarbs. I forgot about the endless references to us signing only the odd Portuguese tramp while Liverpool bought all the talent around them.

 

Weren't they in £300m worth of debt and going on about going into administration? Yet we are supposedly (to them) in £1billion worth of debt and we are still sweeping up the trophies. Imagine if we had money eh?

 

Yes in 2010, Liverpool were on the verge of bankruptcy with the club's creditors going to the High Court to ask for the sale of the club.

 

This was not the case but can't be bothered with looking it all up again.

You're skint, we're skint neither is true. Do you want to buy Poulsen off us for 10M?

 

Swap you Gibson for him. On second thoughts just take Gibson.

 

Well we spent £7 million on Bebe, so on that basis Poulsen must be worth about as much as this bit of fluff I just pulled out of my navel. Swap?

I'll also give you my toenail clippings for Jovanovic...

 

"I'll also give you my toenail clippings for Jovanovic... "

Very good deal i'll send him over for a medical.
