Oh right. Might as well let anyone take over then. As long as Moores says it's ok.

Yeah a fine organisation. I hear their christmas parties are especially entertaining.

| Quote ="Karlos13"Not baiting. I just think more questions could have been asked regarding their motives at the time of the takeover. Did LFC fans really expect them to build a new stadium and finance enough spending for Liverpool to win the league, yet expect nothing in return?'"
Of course some people raised questions. I remember people talking about Hicks' past involvement in sports being sketchy. But it isn't our position to ask questions, I mean, what are we supposed to say when two billionaires have just bought the club and made all those promises? We knew very little about them, Moores & Parry talked about how impressed they were with the doing the due diligence or whatever, they came across as impressive and their talk backed up that. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
As for them spending and whatever, well, I wasn't sure what they would do, I thought they would at least begin work on the stadium but that hasn't happened, they have barely given anything out of their own pocket with regards to transfers, which is what we needed to make up the ground.
It's easy to look in hindsight and say "you won't get giddy this time", but some didn't get giddy last time and those that did, their giddiness was justified at the time IMO, even if they do look foolish now.

Fair points, it just annoys me when football fans are ballooning on tv after takeovers with no questions asked of the new owners (Notts County, Portsmouth etc) then start moaning further down the line when things don't go to plan. Will be interesting to see the SOS reaction to any new owners as they weren't around for the last takeover. Will they be shown to be all hot air or will they show any substance?

Not as annoying as the Man United Socialists who want the £1bn club to be given back to them, when they weren't interested in taking over the club at £20m. They weren't interested in taking over the club when Knighton wanted it. They weren't interested in taking over the club after Murdoch's bid was rejected by the Govt. It takes the Glazer's to buy the club for £700m, then they want the club in their hands.
Liverpool were the loudest voices regarding Chelsea having no history and "not being Chelsea anymore" after Abramovich bought the club. They were among the loudest voices saying that Chelsea had bought the title and that it meant nothing. They then couldn't get on their knees quick enough when some rich guys came to town and said they'd give them what they wanted. They totally deserve the shafting they've received from the Weetabix boys. I only hope they get screwed with their next buyers as well. Totally deserved, the scouse ********.

| Massive day of football ahead(see what I did there). I can see City hitting us with everything early on, hopeful that if we hold out we can maybe sneak a result and give Chelsea something to think about. If City get an early one then I fear the worse.

| On the Citeh-United game. Man United have had four bad results in a row. Citeh are on the back of 3 great wins where they scored 14 goals with 2 against. It's at Citeh, Citeh have already beaten United at home in the Carling Cup. The pressure on United is far greater than the pressure on Citeh.
There's just one result - a United win.

That's exactly how I feel. Some weirdo will score. It'll end up something like;
O'Shea (87) 1-0. It'll bounce in off his chin for the win.

| The myths around Wayne Rooney are just ridiculous. He's got a lot of goals this season, but along with those goals he's also missed a hatful. But every time he misses the "He scores 9/10 of those chances", "He's shown his human" and "Only Rooney can something like that" comments come out.

Those sort of comments are trotted out about pretty much every goalscorer in top level football. The same would be said about Drogba, Ronaldo and many more.

Those comments are spouted out all the time.
When Messi scored his lob against Arsenal, the commentator said 'only Messi could do that'. Erm, nope. Pienaar did it quiteeee afew months before him actually.

| Bolton look to have scored two injury time goals to win at Stoke. Massive win for them which probably secures them in the PL.

| Somewhat ironic that a ref is brave enough to give a penalty against Terry away from Stamford Bridge after the events in midweek.
