Thanjk you.

The amount of poor decisions made by this club over the years is absolutely astounding. First we had Moores and the clown, then the cunts and now FSG, who I like, but their failure to bring in an experienced footballing person to run the ship in the absence of their footballing knowledge, leaves me to believe there will be more **** ups to come.

Of course there are more f*ck ups to come. Every club makes poor decisions. We've probably had more than our fair share over the last twenty years but we're not the worst. Look at Leeds or Portsmouth.
We notice LFC's mistakes more than others' because it matters to us.
I think our worst days are behind us.
. Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
I think we would have been prudent to have heeded Arsene Wenger's comments on Commolli before handing him the chequebook. He is not what he thinks he is, which I believe makes him deluded.

So we sack a guy who cost the club millions in **** transfer deals so we get rid and he wins an unfair Dismissal claim.
We must have had the same legal team that dealed with the suarez case.
Sounds like we can't even sack someone right these days.
While everyone’s getting heated up about Goetze, is no-one else astounded by this quote:
“The way we looked at it, we were selling two players – Fernando Torres and Ryan Babel – and we were bringing two in – Suarez and Carroll – and we were making a profit and the wage bill was coming down considerably as well. It was a four-player deal.” – Comolli
I know this is what was speculated at the time, but to actually hear him admit it smacks of amateurism. How is that sound financial management? Great to get the wage bill down, but you can’t let buying fees be determined in this way. It’s like selling a massive six bedroom mansion for two million pounds then buying a ****ty bedsit in Mansfield for one million and being chuffed because you’ve saved one million and it’s cheaper to heat.

Oh I agree the worst is behind us, but I do still feel we lack a real football/business savvy person at the top. The recent Dempsey and Chang debacles shows we still have amateurs running the place.
