I fkn hate pikeys.....

[Kaiser Jnr]

Spurs are lem.

[NotTheRealSteveWest]

I can only disagree with that comment.

[Greg_Dyke]

Capello is considering calling up Bent to the England squad....Could Bent be the new Dean Ashton ?

[blackballed]

What get injuried before he plays

[Eastside Urchin]

i am sorry but capello has always had my respect as a manager.If he suddenly calls up bent for the senior squad after 4/5 good pre season games he will lose that respect of myself and many other people.Bent had a good pre season last year and look what happened

[Enfield United]

To be honest who is a more senior English Striker in the prem? Owen (when fit) Ashton(when fit) Crouch and Defoe, then theres Rooney who has not set the International scene alight recently, however, who did under Mclaren. So Bent is on a par with Crouch and Defoe so deserves a crack, but expect to see Walcot more involved this season.

[Kaiser Jnr]

Bent is on fire at the moment. No reason why he shouldnt be included.

 

People shouldnt be judged on reputations or last season performances...

[Eastside Urchin]

no,they should be judged on this seasons performances and not pre season.

[cantos]

You have got to admit UM,that Bent is world class at the moment.

[Enfield United]

Liverpool were Sh1te tonight and lucky not to be returning to scouseland at least 2-0 adrift.

 

Liverpool will do nowt this season and Bernitez will be gone b4 the years out.

[urchinman1961]

Not quite sure who the dreamer is here!!!

The yanks are gonna cheese Rafa off eventually, Arsenal, Chelsea and United are looking good at this stage and so are Spurs and Villa, I can see LFC dropping early points, fans pressurising the board and Rafa breaking walls down with his forehead

[urchinman1961]

you will find all the hostility is towards the yanks they will go first another buyer would have to be found or they could end up like leeds footie has become a business im afraid and there are winners n losers rafa the gaffer is a clever technichan with the rite tools

[Enfield United]

I agree except that the yanks wont go unless they get a profit of an offer, the potential 'buyers' can probably smell their desperation. If/when LFC dont qualify for the champs league (in my view this season) then it'll be cheaper to buy the club.

 

As for Rafa, he's done alright without the tools.

[urchinman1961]

yanks to go imo theres no way lfc are goin to make a profit this season and those cowboys are profit orientated, lfc are better off without them and theres a momentum gettin bigger on the mersey where the fans aim to buy the club(with there social money b4 u say it ?)

[Enfield United]

If the fans can buy the club it will be the best thing that could happen to Football

[Hornchurch "O"]

Could always support AFC Liverpool or whatever the new club is called.

[urchinman1961]

afc liverpool are up and runnin and playin mite have bin them last nite against liege ?

I have to agree with that! But only because they'd end up in the conference in 10 seasons.

Fans buying clubs (at any level) is lunacy.... lets face it, what do we really know about runnung a football club? And we are educated and from the south..... those outside the M25 will have even less of a chance!

I say they should give it a go.....

[Enfield United]

Charity/trust or supporters owned clubs are non-profit making organisations i.e no end of year dividends need to be paid to owners/shareholders etc.

 

Therefore what operating profits the clubs make will be ploughed back into the club. Must be a better way than someone with a vested interest for himself.

 

You can still have pros to run the clubs.
