Crouch saves Benitez methinks.

you've changed yer tune, Mr "Benitez is bullet proof he's never going"

My tune is the exact same one it was the last two times the subject has come up. Benitez will be sacked by the Americans sooner or later and it wont be for footballing reasons.

They'll come up with an excuse (like losing to Villa last night) and get rid eventually.

Kin - you and I will never support same team ...
Wigan vs St Helens
Liverpool vs Everton
England vs New Zealand

at least we can laugh at the Aussies and Mancs together when they trip up...

Not celebrating early just enjoying the angst and comedy of it all.

Well the Americans have refinanced the £350m . I take it that means its unlikely that DIC will know buy the club???

The statement confirmed that of the £350million financing package, £105million will be debt tied to the club.

It is understood £60million will be used to kick-start the stadium and £45million for future player transfers, and to meet the club's working capital needs.

The other £245million will be tied to the holding company level and includes the £60million debts on Liverpool's books at the time of last year's takeover as well as the £185million loan the Americans took out to buy the club

I think if I was a Liverpool fan this would concern me. £60m to kick start the stadium, where does the rest come from?? £45m for players and "club's working capital needs" I take it this means wages etc but what happens if Liverpool (and I dont think they will) fail to qualify for the CL and/or get eliminated against Inter, with that lack of income will this eat into the £45m?

The interest on this loan will be massive who pays it?? The club? The owners?

yeah I wouldn't be happy about this if I were a Liverpool supporter..this might cost them dearly.

refinanceincreditcrunchaments ... very dangerous ...
wouldn't be good for the city of Liverpool if this does trip them up.
No one seems to have pointed the finger at Parry or Moores - DIC would
have been the owners if they hadnt of looked for a better payout for themselves...

indeed Parry and Moores risked the entire club for a few pennies.

Yes, you have my pity...

Wigan are going to be a force this season.  Looking like a very good team in pre-season, and that's without Calderwood, Pryce, Fielden, Hock and Mathers.  Going to the first game of the season at the Quins.  Really looking forward to this season.

at least we can laugh at the Aussies and Mancs together when they trip up...

Agreed.

Not celebrating early just enjoying the angst and comedy of it all.

Looking forward to the Everton in Europe DVD for 2008.  Usually out in September?

I can only agree.

Too many questions not answered - too many half truths coming form the owners. I have absolutely no idea why the rest of the stadiums' cost hasn't been mentioned by the media.
