Wonder if the PL/government will get involved? They had their mitts all over Chelsea to get a quick deal done & held Newcastle up a very long time, Will Spitty be shouting fit & proper persons test from the roof tops with his mate ? It’s our duty to go after any potential new owners as well as Newcastle fans. For them this is like pissing the bed, climbing out and standing in cold dog crap courtesy of a St Bernard

Along with 99.9% of comments in the City thread on RAWK!

Generous with the 99.9%. I didn’t know Liverpool fans had such an open mind about all things MCFC and our owner. You learn something everyday.

The seven steps of sanctimonious grief will be delicious to watch.

And we’ll get to enjoy the uncertainty twist the ferals throughout the World Cup break.

FSG have seen the writing on the wall. Liverpool did not prove to be the cash cow they expected.

The club has limited potential for growth without serious investment - having backed the cheap option to extend an outdated stadium with no scope for development. Their club and fans are disliked to the extent they are finding it hard to attract new interest. Everything about them is ageing, including their history.

It is hard to make a business case to justify a premium price when the competition grows stronger offering more scope and options. Buyers will not want the baggage of Heysel and Hillsborough let alone the fanbase. It could prove a harder sell than FSG anticipate.

They bought the club thinking they could ringfence the PL - project big picture - and start printing money like the NFL.

When that got rejected, they tried to do the same with the superleague.

Now that's dead in the water, they've realised they aren't going to see these kind of returns.

Interesting! Not a fan of the way they've done some things and how we can't be arsed in the transfer market half the time but not sure we'll do much better.

Be funny to see the hypocrisy of pundits and rival fans if we are linked with sportswashing, it'll suddenly be a problem no doubt!"

What’s sportswashing? I’ve never heard any journalists or rival fans mention it..
