I was a client guest of a Motor Manufacturer in corporate at LFC (it was shit) for the 2-2 game yonks back.
This was under Manuel Pelegrini and pre our Pep era rivalry.
During lunch one of their Directors suddenly said, with real angst “ I hate your fucking club “ !!
I smiled and asked why, when we’re a small club, and their rivals are yewnitid.
He said “you’ve got all the money and we should’ve had it..... but we don’t want bloody oil money”
I left it until after the game then asked him how much he knew about his club before 1958 and the Littlewoods ‘financial doping’. He nearly exploded so I left it.
Over coffee I gently asked him what he knew about DIC.
“What the fuck is that to do with anything" he snarled.
"I don't know" I replied "but I thought you'd know as they wanted to buy your club recently and most of your fans wanted them".
He got up, left for a piss and didn't have the courtesy to return.
Sums them up.....CNUTS.....and I've never accepted another invitation !!
