Fsg out #2

Perhaps Henry is getting in on this billionaires cage fighting malarkey with Zucker and Musk

[redebreck]

I have it on good authority that Henry is well handy. Todd better watch his chunky arse…our lean, mean fighting machine is gonna give him a flying Kirkby kiss, knock him into tomorrow… 😜

Remember where you heard it first.

Is this on pay per view (or whatever its called)?

If he can't see the glaringly obvious today he'd want to clean those shades. Under investment cost us the CL position last season

He'll go blind if he keeps doing that.

INVESTMENT UPDATE: LIVERPOOL’S TRANSFER BUDGET
Finally, Lynch touched on the matter of Liverpool’s transfer budget. Despite a tough financial year, Lynch is confident about the club’s spending capacity. “Liverpool generates an awful lot of cash… I do expect this to be a sort of a really big summer,” Lynch affirmed

“David Lynch: “The investment in the Anfield Road Stand has cost Liverpool at least one player per transfer window due to the way it was financed.”

‘The completion of the Anfield Road Stand project is expected to free up funds, allowing for necessary team enhancements. Regardless of the investment update, Lynch firmly stated, “there should be serious questions to answer” if Liverpool does not make significant moves in the transfer market.
The summer transfer window stands as a critical period for Liverpool. With potential incomings, exits, and the evolution of the team’s formation, this summer promises to be an exciting period for fans and players alike. As we await the opening of the transfer window, Lynch’s insights provide a glimpse into the possible strategies and moves Liverpool might make.’

Brilliant response to a comment defending FSG’s flawed roadmap outlined in the article

‘If you actually read the article the issue isn't doing these things, it's the fact they've chosen short term repayment schemes that only make sense if you're looking to sell.

They could have put us on long term repayment schemes like they did for the main stand or what every other business does to not strangle cash flow.

We've paid back 110 million in two years on infrastructure loans. For comparison we've only paid 40 back for the main stand expansion in triple that time. “ Financially responsible" options actually would have been either financing it through debt or FSG could have absorbed it into the ongoing main stand loan we took off them, which we could have then paid back an excess figure after the stand opened and started generating money.

There's also the mythical "minority investor" who they keep bringing up. Like some billionaire will come in and help pay our loans off out of sheer good will. But given the fact they've been looking for that for years now, I'm putting that in the fantasy solution.

Those options could have kept operational cash flow far healthier, but instead we've done neither and are sell to buy because we're literally barely breaking even with record revenue.

I don't know how anyone can be a Liverpool fan and not be critical of this. It only serves FSG's interests and they are essentially milking Klopp and the squads short term success so they can attempt to cash out, like they tried with their attempt at a sale. We should have had more money available for the squad, but instead we just look healthier in a portfolio.

It's sad how there are multiple articles that point this out, but people just see we barely made a profit and say "well we obviously had no money!" Instead of addressing why despite record revenue, we are paying a crippling amount of loans back.’

Definitely food for thought. I always wonder what happens under these shithouses when Klopp goes and we likely drop like a stone. They plead poverty when the club's stock is the highest it's ever been, record commercial revenue ( which is down to them it has to be said) but always crying costs. Every premier League club has massive costs, it's just only one of them is bigger or "as big".

[LFC-DPG]

Still think they are waiting for the United sale to go through (if it ever does) then place a similar valuation on Liverpool

[justme]

Like ive always said.. The debt belongs to the club the profits belong to the owners.. so they get the club to pay off everything and then leave with a massive + next to their names.
Its not a clever way of thinking its just sneaky and under handed.Theres no way we will pay for ground improvements and players at the same. no reason why not. but thats the greedy fuckers that run our club

[redebreck]

Being a devil's advocate here...
If they do feck off, which I hope they do as I'm tired of them, who would take us over?
We could in theory end up worse off.
