Me neither. They're businessmen and I trust them with getting all the finances straight. They've done a lot for us in terms of reducing the debt, actually seeing progress towards renovating Anfield, and bringing in sponsor money. One way or another, they'll work it out

exactly, they aren't someone who has billions of dollars to just blow... this is still a business. I remember reading a lot of that loss was paying off some of that debt that H&G built up... They have also been very good about cutting our wage bill in the past couple of years too, that plays in to FFP. We earned the most TV money this past season and with the stadium and new sponsorship deals, the future is bright...

False we have sold someone

you have not correct me if im wrong

once again stop ignoring the facts you guys can not be like the last two years. Both teams will sell players.

Both teams will have to splash this summer. Difference is we can splurge this summer and not have FFP sanction depending.

unfortunately, ManU operates on an entirely different financial playing field than the rest of us. they could spend 100m annually net annually and still probably be alright. could spend even more if they cared at all about paying down the debt the glazers used to acquire the club. instead they just give themselves bonuses.

meh the debt has been cut big time and should be gone soon

It still pissed me off they did that buying the club than throwing all that debt on the club which had none.

We still operate in the black every year so the debt will be gone.

Buttner claiming he was MOTM 15 times as unreal. We will unload some guys for sure in the next month on LvG actually gets in town.

I see your point, we were out of control last summer

Luis Alberto £6,800,000
Iago Aspas £7,000,000
Simon Mignolet £9,000,000
Tiago Ilori £7,000,000
Mamadou Sakho £15,000,000
Kolo Touré Free

Didn't spend a dime this past January...

You guys still operated at a 90 million pound loss from 2011 to 2013.

Do I think you will be hit with FFP? No

but stop having your head in the sand.

i'm not sure it's actually official, and the fee was undisclosed, but it's at least all but a done deal.

I dont disagree and I wouldn't come on this board suggesting to know their financial state as it relates to FFP

I said I'm not concerned... they will get it right.. what else is their to say?

I know you love trying to shite on the LFC supporters optimism... LS, FFP... it doesn't work, but I'm sure you'll have something new next week.. I'm looking forward to it!

How is bringing up FFP shiting on your optimism when talking about who you would sell to balance out the books. frick man you are defensive. Its a legit talking point.
