DIC latest - the largely wild speculation thread

[Pacman]

Barrett has changed his story then?

Hmm maybe there is still some mileage in this.

lol, Moores dosen't even own the club, but still his responsibility to fix things? We as a group wanted him out, he sold (At a bargain price) because we* were calling for his head. We* wanted a huge capital investment, not a steady improvement of our systems that might take 5 years to turn around and we* didn't have the patience or confidence to wait. We* wanted to be like chavski and now we* are.

You can take that as an insult if you like, I say it as a warning to impulsive thinking and actions as a reminder of our core values and the danger of ttossing them aside for the latest fad. How exactly are Leeds doing these days? They won a premiership and got to a CL semi-final, perhaps we should copy them too?



*I say we, mostly the younger generation who it seems take offence at my criticisms of their impatience. There were plenty of us sticking up for Moores while calling for Parry's head.

Yeah you are right we wanted Moores to sell up. He didn't have the money or the know-how to allow us to compete with the top teams. So what's wrong with that? We wanted someone to take the club forward on all levels not just pump loads of money in

H e made a tidy profit from selling to the Yanks. Arguably went to where he'd make more money. He's still at the club in a role. He ****ed it up big time by selling to the wrong people so he should man up and come out and say it, rather than sitting on that tidy profit he made by selling to the wrong people

My biggest criticism of Moores, apart from the obvious one of selling to H&G, was the amount of years he let the club decline, loose pace with the others, it seems he made one bad decision after another, even if he thought it to be for the right reasons.

I feel players like Fowler were wasted by not surrounding them with players of equal talent, Fowler should have a Title winners medal, it just went on & on, 19yrs, I don't want that to happen again. Please God.

I think it's quite signifcant that he has changed the headline. Indicates a major shift from this morning. Strange how not more people on here have picked up on this. From a rejection to considering it..if you read between the lines there must be something major in it

3 times in a day mate people will start to talk.

Something is still going on that's for sure.

Fair play to Barrett and the Echo for changing their story they must know that most Liverpools fans will look to them to see what the hell is going on.

It's all very well saying its Moores fault for selling to the yanks, but the majority of those wanting to sell preffered that to DIC at the time.

Moores was anything but profiteering, look at what G&H are being offered for the same club with more debts. He went for the popular option out of the two on the table.

Money was and is no guarantee of success, especialy if you undermine the manager and unsettle players etc. For all of Moores failings on the financial side of merchandising and marketing, he knew better than any how to run the football side. Trading one failing for another will not improve our overall situation and could make things worse for the fans if prices go up etc.

The idea that he should pump further millions into something so someone else can own it is IMO symptomatic of the bizare perception some have of the reality of life.

You like many have a soft spot for Moores that's obvious, but to say He knew better than anyone how to run the football side, is that not symptomatic of your failing to apportion blame when blame is due.

We have wasted some Great players in our modern history, as i said Fowler should hold a Title Winners medal,imo. Moores failed on the 'Football side' of things more than once. IMO.

You could be correct on the majority wanting H&G over Dic, but i dont remember that being the case.

The majority were gutted when DIC pulled out

That's how i remember it, people were elated with DIC as i recall. If they suddenly changed that view it was because they believed for Moores to choose H&G over DIC, it meant that the deal MUST be BETTER FOR THE CLUB.
