I stoped with the one insult, now I'm just winding him up, it's funny.

exactly mate, some people are never happy....i mean bloody hell PArry has only got us a deal with the 5th richest bloke in the world. i say top four or sack him

I Suggest the people would be complaining when we win the league again that its taken solong and not rejoicing in the fact its come home

[carrsim]

apart from the descent into childish insults (that aren't even funny) the basic premis of this thread is correct.

bottom line is that Moores has known for some time that he doesn't have the cash to compete anymore.

when i look at the landscape of football's ownership now, we are faced with the biggest dilemma of all. if we want to stay as the most successful club then something needs to change at the top.
this impacts most on moores- i for one would hate to own liverpool and have to sell up

he will do well out of the deal and fair enough. if lining his own pockets asap was his main motivation then he would have done a deal with any of the frankly small time bidders over the last 3 years and fkuced off to a place in the sun with his bag of silver.

instead, in the very essence of the liverpool way, patience was treated as the virtue that it truly is and it looks like we have hit paydirt with a group that look roman look like a pauper.

do i want us to be a richman's plaything? not really, but i;d rather be that than a midtable team struggling to compete with clubs that don't have anything like our tradition or reputation.

Have we sold our soul? i don't remember these questions being asked when the chavs were bought, or when villa were taken over, or glazer moved in down the road.

thats because we're the only club with a soul in the first place- the lows that we've suffered are lower then anything imaginable and the highs are on a different plane as well.

we don't really compete with other clubs- but our own history, which must be so heavy on the players that its almost a burden. but like i said, if we want those days to return then sadly something must change in our thinking.

and like all big changes there is an element of fear and uncertainty around them.

BUT people like parry, rafa, stevie, carra and even the foreign players like xabi (even more of a legend after his little comments the other day imo) know all about our tradition and are the guys in the position to make sure we go into the future while maintaining strong links with the past.

the way our club have handled this search for investment proves it

david moores- i salute you

[Rich]

Excellent post, thanks.

[Los Rojos]

Seconded

[nebbers]

Time for a big "Thank You" mural in the Kop when (if) Moores says goodbye.

[Shaggy]

Spot on Carrsim, once again.

[Big-Red-Ed]

Yes Parry and Moores did take enormous stick from some on KT.
When you look back at it all on hindsight koptalkers were absolutely fecking mad to have been strung along with all that L4 bull****.

[tomasjj]

Sorry! I promise to stop now.

I was just out playing with a Danish team who sucked so bad that I wanted to tear my eyes out on the pitch. Life is way too short to run around with people who wouldn't even be considered for the special Olympics. One even managed to hit the bar from three feet away and an empty goal! I have never seen anything like it and I have been around. I have even played with people in the States. You know what I mean?!

"Please come and help us. We need a player."

"You need eleven players and to burn all your football equipment, alright?"

"Could you come again Monday?"

"No way, I'd can see you're all nice people but I honestly can't stand the sight of any of you near a football pitch after this"

Oh, how I can relate with that!
I absolutely hate it when I have to play with people like that. And almost without exception these can-do-nowt ball-lumpers have excellent stamina, so all they do is run about and kick you on the shin, achilles etc.

[BobSkinstad]

His two biggest mistakes is IMO when he tried to sell Macca behind his back and we missed out on £10m+ because of that and when he didn't sell Owen when he had two years left and we probably missed out on £10m+.

I don't know what options he had when he signed our sponsorship deals so I can't blame him for them.

Oh, Christ, you again, with the same sort of drivel you used to come out with on the fat man's site.

Selling players is a decision made by the manager, not the chairman. Have a pop at Evans for the former and GH for the latter if you want, but they ain't Moores's fault.

And let's not forget that if you'd had your way, Parry would have picked up his P45 long ago so none of this DIC business would ever have happened.

You play for a club in Oslo?

I get's worse when you get older and can't run as much as you used to. Playing with people who can't hit a barn over two yards really becomes next to impossible. There should be a special kind of league for 'veterans' who, at an age of 45, still can't play any kind of football. Ohh well, I feel better now anyway
