SOS " We want owners that share the culture of our club/city "

Sorry but is this a code for saying we want only western owners ? Or am I reading it wrong ?

Culture of the City?

Corrupt to the core then?

You read it right!
As if American owners respect the culture of football! I hope they get bought buy some yank asset strippers and taken to pieces

Their city was built on the profits of slavery so I’m guessing they want owners with similar backgrounds.

Perhaps 'spitty' (salivery) might get a consortium together?

Fucking hypocrites

 

[aminegriffy1]

If you want criticize Qatar and oil states at least be consistent and criticize other places as well. You can't just turn a blind eye on AXA/Standard Charted/Nike who all sponsor our club and use slave labour and then shut all the conversation by using " whataboutery " excuse and No there isn't a conspiracy about any coordination from Qatari bots to paint Liverpool fans as racist. People just had enough with the hypocrisy and double standards.

AND FUCK OFF with this Liverpool is a progressive socialist city, a quick Google shows that Liverpool isn't even among the top 10 most liberal/progressive cities in the UK:

1. Bath
2. Bristol
3. Leicester
4. Cambridge
5. Exeter
6. Oxford
7. Newcastle upon Tyne
8. Norwich
9. Leeds
10. Brighton & Hove

Leeds

Fuckin ell, that evolution was quick!

I don't think it is. I think its all part of the way that football at the top level has gone. Its all about branding, about investment, corporatre image and that wonderful word..."Optics"
All about "mission statements" and increasing market share alongside "stakeholders".
part of me wonders if its an age thing. Looking back into the past with those rose tinted specs on, whereas the "younger generation" simply accept all the bullshit that comes out of the media departments.
I think oldies like me ( mid 50s) simply have to accept that the governance of football has changed.
The whole idea of wanting "owners that share the culture of our city/club" is complete bollocks anyway by the very fact they want and aim for a global brand...so as has been said on here many a time....are they lookign at the culture of Stavanger, Dublin, Lagos...or where?
