I think we'll spend £43.25m this summer on players. You heard it here first.

Where's the .25 coming from ?

I heard about the one on Granada

Reporter sat on the beach, grabs a handful of sand, says "this is Glazer."

Gets a handful of sand in the other hand, says "and this is Roman"

He then said, "well the rest of the beach is the sheik"

Now that sounds good enough for me!

Parry pleased with progress
By Graeme Bailey - Created on 19 Jan 2007

Liverpool chief executive Rick Parry is pleased with how things are progressing with the proposed takeover of the club.

Dubai International Capital (DTI) - owned by the country's royal family the Maktoums - are close to sealing a £450million buy-out of the Anfield giants.

Talks are now close to being concluded, Parry revealed.

"A huge amount of work is going on and we are confident everything will be completed relatively soon," he told Sky Sports News.

"Everything seems to be going fine but there is an extraordinary amount of work to be done and details to be completed and it is tied in with the new stadium development so that makes it a bit more complex - we will have news sooner rather than later.

"People have to check the books and all of our contacts and the thing that makes it more complicated is the stadium as they have to do a huge amount of investigations."

Parry insisted that DTI are very much the kind of company that take into account Liverpool's rich heritage.

"The two most positive things are they understand and respect the values of the club," he said.

"They understand and respect the most important value of the club is success on the pitch and that is something they have completely bought into - but at the same time it will be run sensibly as we're building for next 50 years not just the next five years so the future looks very solid."

The deal is completed. It's just the small details that will need to be sorted out IMO.

So it's not completed then is it?

If all these so called experts are right and this does become the deal of the decade then Mr Parry deserves to go down as a Liverpool legend.

The bloke takes some stick from certain fans but if we pull this off and we get a new stadium plus our manager being able to compete at the top end of the transfer market then Mr Parry I salute you

Until of course DIC have maximised our revenues then decide it's time to float the company on the Stock Exchange and make real money.

Some bloke on YNWA says tomorrows Mail is going with an article (probably bull**** like everything theyve written so far) about Gillet making another bid. Bascombe said we dont want to deal with him so i'd imagine he'll bid (if true) and get told to do one.

With all the money coming in next year from all the new TV rights, it wouldn't surprise me if he did make an improved offer.
